Study the following and answer the questions below. The trial balance of Mary Harris (Gowns) as at 31 December 2015 showed a difference which was posted to a suspense account. Draft final accounts for the year ended 31 December 2015 were prepared showing a net profit of £47,240. The following errors were subsequently discovered:
• Sales of £450 to C. Thomas had been debited to Thomasson Manufacturing Ltd.
• A payment of £275 for telephone charges had been entered on the debit side of the Telephone account as £375.
• The sales journal had been undercast by £2,000.
• Repairs to a machine, amounting to £390, had been charged to Machinery account.
• A cheque for £1,500, being rent received from Atlas Ltd, had only been entered in the cash book.
• Purchases from P. Brooks, amounting to £765, had been received on 31 December 2015 and included in the closing inventory at that date, but the invoice had not been entered in the purchases journal.
