Mia decided to expand the business and sell clothes.

On July 1st he:

(2)     Borrows £20,000 from his bank, and uses it to buy a van for the business. This is a special business loan, which is repayable in three years time and carries interest at 13%.

(3)     Pays £6,250 out of his personal bank account to have the new premises refitted.

His summarised transactions for the rest of the year are as follows (they are not in chronological order):

(4)     Bought stock on credit, £489,625.

(5)     Bought stock for cash, £16,550.

(6)     Sold stock which cost £63,000, for £84,000 cash.

(12)  Personal drawings were £500 per month. Shop takings were banked daily. On June 30th 2012 cash in the till was still £125.

Required:

1. Double-entry accounts reflecting the above transactions. (Hint: as a constant 'float' of £125 is maintained in the shop till, you may treat cash transactions as movements on the business's bank account.) You should show all workings clearly.

2. A trial balance at June 30th 2012.

3. Mia does not maintain any books of account - these transactions were obtained from bank statements and invoice files, and memory. Set out briefly the main problems inherent in operating a business in this rather haphazard manner.

You are required to prepare a statement of financial position or income statement.
