Downloaded from hlayiso.com NATIONAL SENIOR CERTIFICATE: ACCOUNTING: PAPER II – INFORMATION BOOKLET Page iii of vii Additional information 1. The budgeted amounts for November, December and January were drawn up in October and so were not influenced by what actually happened in November 2016. 2. It was budgeted that the rooms in November would be filled on average for 20 nights (two- thirds of the month); December only 10 nights and January is budgeted to be filled at an average of 15 nights. 3. It is budgeted that there will be an increase of 40% in beverage and restaurant sales in December 2016 and this would then drop from December to January 2017. 4. All staff receive a 40% Christmas bonus at the end of November. They receive their normal salary amount in December. They are going to get an 8% increase in January 2017. 5. Sandton Sky Hotel buys some of their food and beverages on credit. They buy nothing else on credit. They have negotiated the following terms to pay back creditors: 80% will be paid back in the month after purchase and will be given a 5% discount; the remaining 20% will be paid back in the next month. Credit purchases for November and December were R65 200 and R82 000 respectively. 6. Interest on overdraft is charged at 18% p.a. and is included in admin expenses. Information to answer Question 1.8 Paul, the manager did some research into saving electricity costs. He found out the following: • The total spent/estimated on electricity for the year ended December 2016 was R700 000. It is expected that the total electricity expense for 2017 will be R780 000. • The accountant has estimated that of the hotel's electricity, 20% is lighting, 30% is used by the kitchen and miscellaneous items, 35% is used by the geysers for the showers and baths in the rooms, and the last 15% is used by the air conditioners all over the hotel. • LED lights not only last much longer than their current light bulbs but use 75% less energy and produce less heat, therefore saving on air-conditioning costs. To replace the light fittings in the lounges and dining areas will cost R95 000. To replace the rooms with LED lights will cost R140 000. • There are new thermostats available with motion sensors that will turn off the air-conditioning/ heater when the guests are not in their rooms. The accountant estimates that this should save about 30% of what is currently being spent on air conditioners. To replace the current ones in the rooms will cost R102 500. • Replacing all the geysers with solar energy geysers will cost a total of R640 000. IEB Copyright © 2016 PLEASE TURN OVER

Mrs Jones is the owner of Longs and Shorts, a clothing shop that sells jeans and shorts. It is a small shop, so besides herself, there is only a bookkeeper (Pam) and two sales staff, both who have access to the cash register if Mrs Jones is not around. Pam prepared the following statement for debtor, Lerato de Villiers: Longs and Shorts Statement of account Lerato de Villiers Account no: 5469821 37 Olive Road Date of statement: 25 October 2016 Lyttelton Tel: 012 644 8989 Date Details/Document no.

The opening balance was a result of two invoices issued. One for R1 350 from July and the other issued in August. 2. Lerato phoned Longs and Shorts in a temper saying that she does not owe R7 500 on her account, as: • Credit note 94 was for R510, not R150. • She made a direct deposit of R3 000 into the bank account of Longs and Shorts on 3 October. • She did not buy from Longs and Shorts on 8 October. The above claims were looked into and found to be true. 3. Longs and Shorts have five suppliers.
