Question : Comprehension:

Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.

India's favourable demographic trends, which have increased the workforce's percentage of the overall population, have paved the way for a significant middle-class expansion. A big population bulge emerging from absolute poverty and set to reach the middle class would generate new dynamics. In India, over 55 per cent of the population is predicted to reach the middle class. In reality, because India's demographics are significantly younger than China and the United States, the country's middle class might be the world's largest (in terms of population) by 2025.

It is no exaggeration to argue that future growth will be reliant on the increasing middle class and that the middle class's development will be reliant on growth. Growth has been fuelled by both private consumption and saving, both of which are fuelled by the middle class. India's private consumption accounts for over 60% of the country's GDP, while private consumption growth has contributed to 70% of the country's growth since 2000.

Despite the fact that China's middle class is now greater than India's, private spending in the former accounts for a lesser share of growth. In contrast to the United States, where domestic savings are dropping and the country borrows excess funds from outside to invest and expand, India's domestic savings and investments are increasing and funding investments. The emergence of the middle class is anticipated to coincide with a transition away from large-scale informality, which now characterises much of the services and industrial sectors, and toward more formal, wage-earning, and medium-scale firms. Technological advancements will spread at a faster rate. Cities will expand as job possibilities concentrate on them. If there is enough movement across states and from rural to urban regions, the population increase will be more evenly distributed.

in ca foundation accounts subject final Account sum is of 15 marks my answer doesnt tally how much do I get I got most workings correct except 1 or 2 ?

Tanya Gupta 26th Jan, 2024

Hello,


If you got most of the workings correct in the final account sum of 15 marks in the CA Foundation accounts subject then even if your answer doesn't tally due to a few errors, you can still earn partial marks for the correct workings. The exact marks you'll receive would depend on the specific marking scheme and how the examiners evaluate your response but you will definitely receive minimum half marks as most of it is correct and you get step markings as well.


Hope this helps,

Thank you

Question : On firm dissolution, which one of the following accounts should be prepared at the last?

Option 1: Realization account

Option 2: Partner's capital account

Option 3: Partner's loan account

Option 4: Cash account

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Cash account


Solution : Answer = cash account

The cash or bank account is prepared at last. The balance of the cash account and the receipts during the process of dissolution has to be equal to the payments to outsiders and partners. With the cash account, all the accounts will stand closed. It reflects the final disposition of cash assets after settling all liabilities, ensuring an accurate depiction of the firm's financial position at the close of its operations.
Hence, the correct option is 4.
