Answer
To prepare the Manufacturing Account, we start with the opening stock of raw materials, add the purchases made during the year, and subtract the closing stock of raw materials to find the cost of raw materials consumed. Then, we calculate the total manufacturing costs by adding factory wages and other expenses. Finally, we arrive at the prime cost and gross profit by adjusting for the costs of finished goods.
Opening Stock of Raw Materials: €49,000
Add Purchases of Raw Materials: €384,000
Total Raw Material Available: €433,000
Less Closing Stock of Raw Materials: €49,000
Cost of Raw Materials Consumed: €384,000 - €49,000 = €384,000
Factory Wages: €134,000
Add Direct Expenses: €3,600
Total Manufacturing Cost: €384,000 + €134,000 + €3,600 = €521,600
Cost of Finished Goods:
Closing Stock of Finished Goods: €74,000
Cost of Goods Manufactured: €521,600 - €74,000 = €447,600
Thus, Gross Manufacturing Cost = €447,600.

Answer
Next, we will prepare the Trading and Profit and Loss Account. We begin with the total sales, subtract any returns, and then deduct the cost of goods sold to calculate the gross profit.
Sales: €980,000
Less Sales Returns: €3,400
Net Sales: €980,000 - €3,400 = €976,600
Less Cost of Goods Sold:
Cost of Sales: €447,600
Gross Profit: €976,600 - €447,600 = €528,900
Less Expenses:
Advertising: €7,000
Factory Insurance: €13,500
Factory Light and Heat: €8,700
Total Expenses: €7,000 + €13,500 + €8,700 = €29,200
Net Profit: €528,900 - €29,200 = €499,700.

Answer
Finally, the Balance Sheet includes the assets, liabilities, and equity of the company on the date specified. We will classify these into fixed and current assets and liabilities, also considering share capital and retained earnings.
Intangible Assets: €29,500 (Patents)
Fixed Assets:
Plant & Machinery (Net) : €292,000
Delivery Vans (Net): €60,000
Factory Building (Net): €582,000
Total Fixed Assets: €292,000 + €60,000 + €582,000 = €934,000
Current Assets:
Stocks:
Raw Materials: €49,000
Work in Progress: €23,000
Finished Goods: €74,000
Debtors: €41,600
Cash at Bank: €7,600
Total Current Assets: €49,000 + €23,000 + €74,000 + €41,600 + €7,600 = €195,200
Total Assets: Fixed + Current = €934,000 + €195,200 = €1,129,200
Liabilities:
Creditors: €29,500
10% Debentures: €200,000
Total Liabilities: €29,500 + €200,000 + €200,000 = €210,500
Equity:
Share Capital: €600,000
Profit & Loss Balance: €499,700
Total Equity: €600,000 + €499,700 = €1,099,700
Final Balance Sheet: Total Assets = Total Liabilities + Equity, confirming the accounts are balanced.
