MEHTA AUTOMOBILES
SUMMARY
HISTORY OF MEHTA AUTOMOBILES
Mr Mehta is a mechanic. Due to his excellent work, professional ability, pleasing
manners and sense of responsibility, he was soon promoted to the post of a chief
mechanic. Because of his abilities, his friends and relatives advised him to start his own
automobile repairs shop. Therefore, after consulting with his family he accepted the
offers of his friends Mr Nitin and Mr Mohan Kapoor, who offered to give a rental office
in a busy street of Ahmedabad and a loan of 1,00,000 respectively to start his business.
CURRENT POSITION
Mr Mehta’s business is well settled small-scale business. He has hired four more
assistants in addition to earlier two and also two mechanics and a part-time salesman. He
has a small office with necessary furniture, and he stores his goods at his home, which he
uses as his small godown. He has also started a small spare parts selling section. He is
also assisted by his son Mr Rajendra Mehta for the regular day-to-day activities.
NEW VENTURE
During his day-to-day activities, Mr Mehta came across an advertisement in a local
newspaper, which was about a company, who was in search of a well-known automobile
service shop owner, for a sole selling agency of their cars and spare parts in Gujarat. Mr
Mehta found this proposal profitable and thus applied for the same.
CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT
The company specified two conditions which every applying firm in order to get the
contract had to fulfil. The conditions are as under:
(a) Every firm had to obtain from its bank, a certificate to the effect that a minimum
balance of 5,00,000 was maintained in business account.
(b) Every firm had to submit a complete current financial position of the business
and the results of immediate past period.
THE PROBLEM
Mr Mehta found the problem, which was to comply with the above, two conditions. The
following were the difficulties, which Mr Mehta had to face in order to get the problem.
As Mr Mehta did not have any knowledge about how to prepare his financial
accounts, he had not prepared any regular accounts.
His used to run his business in such a manner that each cash received was deposited in
bank and was withdrawn at the time of payment, and as his business was not of a very
large scale he was not able to maintain a minimum balance of Rs 5,00,000 in his business
account.
Thus due to the above problems, he was not able to satisfy the two conditions laid
down by the company.
1
THE SOLUTION
In order to get the contract, Mr Mehta must fulfil the above two conditions so for that he
has to do the following things.
(a) Learn the basic things of recording of day-to-day transactions.
(b) Collect necessary data for the preparation of last year’s financial statements.
(c) Maintain a daily book to record all the day-to-day transactions of the business.
(d) Appoint an accountant, who will prepare all the accounts and financial
statements from this daily book.
QUESTIONS AND ITS ANSWERS
1. Mr Mehta mentioned that
(a) He could not have systematic accounting records because he did not possess
specialized accounting skill; and
(b) Keeping such records would increase in costs, which he could not afford. How
would you respond to these comments?
Solution:
(a) Here, as Mr Mehta’s business is not very vast, recording of day-to-day
transactions does not require any specialised knowledge so he could just learn
the basic fundamentals of accounting and start recording the day-to-day
transactions in a daily book. This daily book can be recorded systematically by
appointing an accountant (Mr Lal).
(b) In short term, recording of proper accounts will cost a bit to Mr Mehta but it will
be equalized by the long-term benefits by maintaining proper books of accounts.
In addition, appointing an accountant (Mr Lal) for such limited size firm would
not cost very much as he will not have to be paid a very high amount for his
services rendered.
2. What information would Mr Lal require for preparing the financial statements?
Solution: Mr Mehta would require three types of information for preparing the financial
statements, which are as under.
(a) Information related to Trading Account
(i) Purchases and sales of goods
(ii) Direct expenses
(iii) Closing stock of goods
(b) Information related to Profit & Loss A/c.

(c) Information related to Balance Sheet

• Contingent liability
(ii) Information related to Assets of the business:
2
1. Fixed assets 2. Investments
3. Current Assets 4. Miscellaneous expenditure
3. What items would you expect to find in the statements of financial position and profit
and loss analysis relating to Mr Mehta?

Mehta:

4. What records would Mr Mehta require to maintain, for controlling his business
activities?
Solution. Mr Mehta would be required to maintain the following records, for controlling
his business activities.
(1) Trading Account
(a) It tells us what are the net purchase and net sales of the company.
(b) It also specifies the direct expenditure, incurred by the company.
(c) Information regarding trading account is helpful during time of calculating
the gross profit of the company.
(d) Other benefits.

(2) Profit and Loss Account

(3) Balance Sheet

(b) It tells the total assets of the company.
(c) It also tells about the total liabilities of the company.
Note: A detailed explanation of above statement has been mention in Question 3.
CONCLUSION
Thus from the above case, we can conclude that the problem mentions in the case is one
of the common problems which every unit faces if it does not prepare and maintain
necessary accounts.
Mr Mehta is one of the persons who are suffering from various problems, which are
mentioned in this case, and there are many other problems, which may occur due to non-
maintenance of accounts.
Thus in order to keep away such problems, every firm big or small should always
maintain its accounts in a systematic way.

SUMMARY
In the year 1946 three partners, Mr Bevan, Mr & Mrs Maywoods, started business
contributing $2000 each. They also hire some amount of loan. The cafe was on the
highway and frequently visited by truck drivers and voyagers. All of the partners have
divided their duty by the mutual understanding.
Due to the friendly relationship between one of the partners, namely, Mrs Maywoods
with a customer Fred Mead, she finally she run away with him. Mr Maywoods searched
her a lot. After this event occurred, Mrs. Bevan decided to dissolve this partnership. Thus
they started their business on 12th April 1946 and dissolve on 16th December 1946. The
dissolution of business resulted into loss and all the partners equally shared it.
As the professional approach was a lacking factor for this partnership, finally it had to
be broken up and bear a loss. After briefly analysing the case, we can say that the proper
planning was not present in this partnership and they did have the scarcity of funds from
the beginning.

Contract profit (profit margin) greater than 50% of contract
Total contract
Profit margin is to be taken as 2/3rd of total contract profit
If less than 50% 1/3rd of total contract profit is realized.
Here, 11971450 / 22198220 = 53%
Therefore, 5% of 22198220 = 1109911 * 2/3 = 749441 profit margin for current year.

Solution 1
Project 220
Method (a):
102751.5 completed
106230.0 claimed
208961.5 total cost
∴ 49.16775% completed.
Method (b):
116970 completed
232294 claimed
349264 total cost
∴ 50.35429% completed
Net impact on company’s B/s:

Cost earned through Method (a): 102751.5
Net Profit 14218.5
Answer:
Net profit earned for current year as per Method (a)
= 14218.5 × 49.16775 = 6990.92
Net profit earned for current year as per Method (b)
= 14218.5 × 50.35 = 7159.63
∴ Net Change in P&L statement
= 6990.92 – 7159.63 = Rs. 168.71.
Solution 2. Project 221
Method (a): 76578.18 Task completed

Method (b):
90780 Task completed
110220 Total Task (cost)
∴ 82.36% completed.
Net Billing = 90780 – 70578.18

As manufacturing cost of product is 50% of the selling piece of the listed selling price, it
can be possible to spend on maintenance of computer to increase the life of the product.
If possible, life of computer can be increased by 2 more years. Given figures of cost of
specification of computer it is always possible to increase the life of product.
Solution 2
Yes, CDC should change the department policy. Simple WDV would be more preferable
for six years. Depreciation rate will end up around 16.677, which will give stability in
cost and profit. As depending on nature of business, depreciation shares 317 of the total
cost which is considerable. Written Down Value (WDV) method will give constitency in
cost structure in long run..
Solution 2
Suggested changes in accounting policy for depreciation is valid for the current year.
