It seemed that they had a vague idea of the term but were not absolutely clear. Suggestions for teachers Explain the meaning of separate set of books method and no separate set of books methodwhen each co-venturer records all transactions / only his own transactions . While doing practical sums, the requirements should be worded according to the method followed. In this way the students will be able to connect the method with the accounts prepared in a particular method. Explain the concept along with its accounting treatment. Section 78 and Section 79 of the Companies Act must be explained clearly in the class and their provisions connected to the practical sums otherwise it becomes rote learning. Explain clearly each component of the formulae used to value goodwill. Teachers must clearly bring out the difference between revenue and capital profit. This topic has to be laid stress on in Class XI itself. (ix) Candidates were able to answer this question with ease. (x) Most of the candidates answered this question correctly. However, some simply gave the reason as premium being an extra amount received on the issue of debentures. 144 MARKING SCHEME Question 1.

If the financial statements are not true and fair the analysis will give a false picture of the affairs of the business. E.g. if the closing stock is over- valued, not only will the profitability will be overstated but the financial position will also appear to be better. Thus ratios are as accurate as accounts.

(b) What is SQL? (c) What is a Unique Key? (d) Define SQL update statement. (e) [10] What is meant by normalization of a database system? Comments of Examiners Few candidates attempted this question. Many of those who did make an attempt, could not answer it correctly. Suggestion for teachers Give more practice to students in answering similar type of questions. MARKING SCHEME Question 14. Data Dictionary in RDBMS is a set of tables and the database objects and is stored in a special (a) area of the database and maintained by the kernel. The information in the Data Dictionary helps to provide access to the objects and maps into actual physical storage location. SQL: Structured Query Language / (SQL) is a language designed specifically for (b) communicating with databases. / SQL is an ANSI (American National Standards Institute) standard. (c) Unique key: Unique key is same as primary key and uniquely identifies each row in a table, with difference being the existence of null. Unique key field allows one value as NULL value. (d) SQL update statement: SQL update is used to update data in a row or set of rows specified in the filter condition. The basic format of an SQL UPDATE statement is, Update command followed by table to be updated and SET command followed by column names and their new values followed by filter condition that determines which rows should be updated. Normalization of a database system is the process of analyses of database tables and splitting the (e) table into multiple tables, (based on logical relation between multiple tables) to remove redundant data. There can be first normal form, second normal form and third normal form, when normalization of database is done. 173 GENERAL COMMENTS: (a) Topics found difficult by candidates in the Question Paper: Treatment of normal loss in joint venture Writing off miscellaneous expenditure Calculation of interest on drawings Ratio Analysis- Formulae and calculations Cash Flow Statement- concept of accumulated depreciation. (b) Concepts in which candidates got confused: Methods of Joint Venture Treatment of retiring partner s loan a/c Treatment of interest on loan and rent due to a partner The relevant heads and subheads in the Balance Sheet of a company. Whether to take Gross Debtors or Net Debtors while calculating Trade Receivables Turnover Ratio (c) Suggestions for candidates: Do not neglect the Class XI syllabus Be clear in understanding the concepts. This will help in answering the theory questions. Study the entire syllabus thoroughly Practice sums from at least two text books Do not write short forms in the ratios formulae Always practice sums with proper formats drawn Solve past years question papers Solve the current years and past years Specimen Papers released by the Council 174
