Working Note 2: Provision for Tax Account
| Particulars | Amount (₹) | Particulars | Amount (₹) |
|---|---|---|---|
| To Bank A/c (Tax Paid) | 40,000 | By Balance b/d | 40,000 |
| To Balance c/d | 50,000 | By Statement of Profit and Loss (Provision made during the year) | 45,000 |

Note: Using the stated opening/closing Provision for Tax balances (40,000/50,000) together with the given ₹45,000 "provided during the year" figure would mathematically imply Tax Paid of ₹35,000, not ₹40,000. The Cash Flow Statement above uses ₹40,000 for Tax Paid because that is the figure required for the overall Balance Sheet to reconcile exactly to the given closing cash balance (₹1,30,000) — there is a small, unresolved ₹5,000 inconsistency in the source’s own figures here that could not be confidently attributed to a single input.
Working Note 3: Interest on Debentures — First half-year (8% of 1,50,000 for 6 months) = 6,000; Second half-year, after the new issue (8% of 2,60,000 for 6 months) = 10,400; Total = 16,400.
Working Note 4: Interest on Bank Loan — First half-year (8% of 50,000 for 6 months) = 2,000; Second half-year, after partial repayment (8% of 40,000 for 6 months) = 1,600; Total = 3,600.
