i dont agree with the above solutions .... the sale has not been uniform throughout the nine months ... so profit will not be uniform for the 9 months .... the sale p.m for the first 6 months is half of the sale p.m of the remaining 3 months ...profit is higher in the last 4 months... g.p will be distributed on the basis of ratio of sales . moreover it is compulsory for public limited company to obtain certificate of commencement ...
so the post incorporation period will be for 4 months.....
ratio of sales of pre:post will be 1/2*5:1/2+(1*3)
i.e 5:7
gp for post incorporation period will be 450000*7/12=262500
post incorporp. profit = 262500 - 34000 - {(216000/9)*4} = 142500 ....
First regarding ur certificate of commence. business doubt.... A co. comes into existence on the date of incorporation and not on the date certificate of commencing business is recd. In this case after incorporation exp. like director fees is incurred which is possible that it might hv been charged b4 CCBusines is recd.... as director can be appointed after incorporation...
Coming to ur second point of uniformity in sales ... I totally agree with u that sales are not uniform but do u think that N/P is the result of merely Sales aspect??????? Many other incomes and expenses are taken to arrive at the figure of N/p...... Moreover the business acquired is a running business.....
Thanks to all of u for taking initiative to try this problem..... All the best ....... |

dude ... first of all .. let me tell u i have not compared net profit with sales ...if u c my solution its actually gross profit that has been distributed according to sales and other expenses have been proportioned purely on time basis ... u can refer to any book for dis kind of problems ... if it was like distributing n.p on basis of sales den dey would have not given the information about variability of volume of sales ...
2nd thing i agree a company comes into existence on certificate of incorporation but the for public limited company it is cumplusory to obtain certificate of commencement and only den commence business ..so only the period later than june 1 culd be treated as post incorporation .... u can refer Law and also some advanced accounting books... they have given the theory abt it ....
nw the next thing is director remmuneration ...yes its right that they can be appointed after incorporation ... nw it is ur discretion and assumption hw will u provide for director expenses ... either u can distribute it 1:4 or put it completely in post ....
since these r all purely theoritical aspects hw u will treat director expenses u cannot tell that accurately ...
hope all these answers ur queries .... esp Mr. Faiz bhai jaan...
