This is a chapter test for CA Inter Advanced Accounting covering three accounting standards: AS 2 on valuation of inventories, AS 10 on property, plant and equipment, and AS 13 on accounting for investments. The questions are practical and ask students to calculate amounts and explain the treatment in the books. It suits students who want to practise application-based questions from this part of the syllabus and check how well they handle normal and abnormal loss, depreciation on land and building, and reclassification of investments.

What the test covers

The first question deals with normal and abnormal wastage in raw material under AS 2, where students calculate the abnormal loss from a 5 per cent normal wastage norm and explain how each type of loss is treated. The second question checks the correct accounting for land cost included in a building account and depreciation charged on it, which relates to AS 10. The third and fourth questions focus on AS 13, covering the carrying value of shares, gold and silver, and the transfer of investments between long term and current categories with their market and fair values.

How to use it for revision

Attempt the paper within the given time of about 40 minutes, keeping 15 minutes for reading the questions. Work out the numerical parts first, such as the abnormal loss quantity and the amounts to be transferred on reclassification, and then write the explanations in standard accounting language. Compare your answers with the standard provisions of each accounting standard, paying attention to how the lower of cost and market value rule applies to each category of investment.
