        Traders has lost customers as a result of this. Blue Water Traders have decided
        to change the supplier because they do not receive any discount from Lindiwe
        Traders.

                Lindiwe Traders to manage stock effectively.                                     (4)

QUESTION 5: CONCEPTS, GENERAL LEDGER AND INTERNAL CONTROL
                                              (44 marks ; 33 minutes)

5.1   CONCEPTS

      Indicate if the following statements are TRUE or FALSE. Write only ‘True’ or
      ‘False’ next to the numbers (5.1.1 – 5.1.4) in the ANSWER BOOK.             (1 x 4)        (4)

      5.1.1   According to historical cost principle, goods purchased must be recorded
              at cost price.

      5.1.2   When a debtor has a credit limit of R10 000, it means that R10 000 is the
              maximum amount he can spend on goods and services on credit.

      5.1.3   The prudence principle applies when the business provides for known
              expenses or losses to avoid the overstating of profit.

      5.1.4   To evaluate the debtor’s credit worthiness before goods are sold on credit
              is a good internal control measure that a business applies.
