• The sales revenue in the trial balance above is net of sales returns of $1,300,000.

During the renovations (which included excavations for a car park) a box containing numerous rare and antique coins was found in the basement of the building. The coins were subsequently sold at auction for $6,400,000 net (i.e. after commission to auctioneers).

• $150,000 from car parking fees. Following the completion of building renovations (refer c above) at the end of April 2014, the company advertised 500 permanent car parking spaces available. Given their central location the company expects that soon all spaces will be contracted for and expects revenue of $1,900,000 for the year ending 30 June 2015, with this to increase in future years as demand for parking spaces increases further and so fees can also be increased.

• $490,000 for plant and equipment.
• $112,000 for vehicles.
• $191,000 for doubtful debts expense. This was significantly reduced this year (to almost 20% of previous years) as the company decided from 15 July 2013 to give a reduced sales price (2% off the recommended retail price) on all products if not purchased on credit. This has reduced the amount of credit sales, and doubtful debts expense) substantially. However, although the overall expense has been reduced the directors reassessed the expected doubtful debts for those customers still purchasing on credit, and increased the estimate (as a % of balances).
