PREFACE
The current edition has been completely updated to comply with revised CIE – 9706 (A level Accounting
syllabus) 2016-18. From May 2016, there will be only one paper (Paper 3) for A2 qualification and it
replaces both P3 and P4 of the old syllabus followed up to November 2014. Topics like ‘Manufacturing
Accounts’ and ‘Non Profit Organisations’ have been moved to Paper 3 (A 2 level). On the other hand, topics
of ‘Partnership changes’ and ‘Dissolution of partnerships’ have been shifted to AS Level. Moreover, topics
of ‘Redemption and reduction of capitals’ and ‘process costing’ have been removed from the new syllabus.
The other book available in the market is based on Singaporean exams and does not include exams taken
in Pakistan for November session. Moreover, the available book categorises Questions only on yearly basis
whereas the book under review categorises them on topical as well as on yearly basis.
In the book under review, the varying topics of last ten years Cambridge International Examination (CIE)
papers have been categorised in such a way that one can attain optimum skills in each of these.
It is, however, advised that students must supplement their studies with the textbooks recommended by
their teachers, since it is by no means a replacement for a good book.
I am indeed grateful to the students and the teachers who motivated me to undertake this task. In
particular I would like to thank Sajid Munir, Sheraz Sidiq and Waseem Zia for making many helpful
suggestions. Any further suggestions for improvement and intimation of errors will be much appreciated
and acknowledged.

(c) As donations are not received on regular basis and their amounts vary from year to year so clubs capitalise
the donations amounts. In addition, donations may be received for some specific purpose or to complete a
specific future project so should not be treated as income in the year of receipt only.
(d) (i) 1 Fund raising events
Advantage: No fixed interest charges.
Disadvantage: May not generate required funds so some other source may be required.
2 Bank deposit and bank loan
Advantage: Funds available from bank for full amount.

(d) Advantages
Certainty of securing a long term business location
An investment that will potentially increase in value
Helps to avoid any sudden, large rent increases
Ability to customise the premises without the landlord’s consent
Increase the value of the business and the net wealth of the business owner
The unused area of the building space may be sublet to generate some additional revenue
Disadvantages
High initial cost -- which might be used for more important business purposes.
Owning a property also comes with responsibilities like responsibility for maintenance, fixtures and
fittings, decoration and security.
Any fall in the value of the property will decrease your capital.
It is usually harder to relocate the business, because selling business premises is a complex and
sometimes lengthy process.
Payment of loan interest and repayment of loan are also important factors.

(d) In case of life membership, the members are generally required to make the payment in a lump sum only
once which enables them to become the members for whole of the life. Life members are not required to
pay the annual membership fees. As 'life membership fees' is a substitute for 'annual membership fees',
therefore, it is desirable that life membership fees should be credited to a separate fund and fair proportion
be credited to income in subsequent years as the organisation is supposed to provide membership facilities
for the rest of their lives.
QUESTION 12 NOVEMBER 2017 P31 Q2
(a) In a trading organization, term capital is used to represent the amount invested by owner within the
business. As there are no owner(s) in non-profit organisations so accumulated fund replaces capital in this
case and represents the accumulation of surpluses over a number of years. Drawings by a sole trader reduce
his capital but as there is no owner in a non-profit organisation so accumulated fund is not affected by
drawings. Capital increases through profits and reduces by losses & drawings whereas surpluses are added
in accumulated funds and deficits are subtracted.

(e) As donation is received for a specific long term purpose so should be invested in long term saving
account.
This investment will create a source of income for the organization.
It would diversify the incomes of the organization and reduces its dependency on conventional
earning sources.
The interest on long term saving account may help to “smooth out” the overall income stream.
(c) In case of life membership, the members are generally required to make only one payment in a lump sum
which enables them to become the members for whole of their lives. As 'life membership fees' is a
substitute for 'annual membership fees', therefore, it is debited to bank account and credited to a separate
fund and fair proportion be credited to income in subsequent years as the organisation is supposed to
provide membership facilities for the rest of their lives.
(d) If Gurmukh has $1 000 to pay life fee he would not be required to pay membership fee again in his life
irrespective of changes in annual membership rates. As Gurmukh is a retired personnel so it can only benefit
him on financial grounds if he lives for a period more than one year. Clubs usually offers special benefits for
life members which could also be there. However, life fee, once paid is not recoverable or refundable.
On the basis of above discussion, Gurmukh may become life member if he has ample funds like $1 000and
his health conditions are good.

(d) In case of life membership, the members are generally required to make only one payment in a lump sum
which enables them to become the members for whole of their lives.
Chapter 1 40 Accounts of Non Profit Organisations
As 'life membership fees' is a substitute for 'annual membership fees', therefore, it is debited to bank
account and credited to a separate life fee fund and fair proportion be credited to income in subsequent
years as the organisation is supposed to provide membership facilities for the rest of their lives.
This treatment is also in compliance with the matching concept. The life fee should be spread over a suitable
time period for which club is expecting to provide services to the life members. The suitable time period
may be determined through dividing the life fee by the annual membership fee. This time period is 8 years
($400/$50) in this case.
(e) If amount is invested at interest rate of 7.5% then it will generate annual income $2 625 ($35 000 × 7.5%).
On the other hand if club builds its own boat house, then club would save annual rent of boathouse
amounting to $2 800 and in addition it will also generate an annual rental income of $1 250. Total extra
income would be $4 050.
As investment is for three years only so the funds would be available to the club afterwards for other
investment opportunities, this flexibility would not be available in case of building a boathouse. Boathouse
may involve higher maintenance with passing years but as rents usually increase on yearly basis so increase
in rental income and saving also justifies the building of a new boat house.
On purely financial grounds, the club should use the funds to build the new boat-house.
