Step 2: Incorporate other relevant balances from the problem description and adjustments.
- Opening Capital: Calculated from opening balances (30 June 2022):
- Total Assets = Bank (K120) + Inventory (K100) + Receivables (K240) + Motor Van (K500) = K960
- Total Liabilities = Payables (K300) + Bank Loan (K1,000) = K1,300
- Opening Capital = K960 - K1,300 = K(340) (Debit balance, indicating a deficit)
- Inventory (Closing): K180 (Debit)
- Bank Loan: Opening (K1,000) + Additional (K600) = K1,600 (Credit)
- Bad Debts Written Off: K60 (Debit)
- Depreciation Expense - Motor Van: 10% of Motor Vehicle (K1,200) = K120 (Debit)
- Accumulated Depreciation - Motor Vehicle: K120 (Credit)
- Provision for Doubtful Debts Expense: 10% of closing Receivables (K400) = K40 (Debit)
- Provision for Doubtful Debts: K40 (Credit)
