‭On 12th May, 2011 C sold to D goods for Rs 36,470 and drew upon the‬

‭latter two bills of exchange; one for Rs 16,470 at one month and the‬
‭other for Rs 20,000 at three months. D accepted both the bills. On 5th‬
‭June, 2011 C sent both the bills to his bank for collection on due dates.‬
‭The first bill was duly met. But due to some temporary financial‬
‭difficulties, C failed to honour his acceptance for Rs 20,000 on the due‬
‭date and the bank had to pay Rs 20 as noting charges.‬

‭However, on 16th August, 2011 it was agreed between C and D that D‬


‭would immediately pay Rs 8,020 in cash and accept a new bill at three‬
‭months for Rs 12,480 which included interest for postponement of‬
‭part payment of the dishonoured bill.‬

‭C immediately sent the new acceptance to its bank for collection on‬
‭due date. On 1st October, 2011 D approached C offering Rs 12,240 for‬
‭retirement of his acceptance. C acceded to the request. Pass journal‬
‭entries for all the above mentioned transactions and prepare ledger‬
‭accounts in the books of C.‬

‭A receives three promissory notes from B, dated 1st January, 2012 for‬
‭3 months. One bill is for Rs 3,000, the second is for Rs 4,000 and the‬
‭third is for Rs 5,000. The second bill is immediately endorsed in‬
‭favour of C and on 4th January, 2012 the third bill is discounted with‬
‭the bank for Rs 4,700. Pass the entries in A’s journal assuming (i) the‬
‭bills are met on maturity and (ii) they are dishonoured.‬

‭paying Rs 15 as noting charges. B then pays Rs 2,000 in cash and‬
‭accepts a bill of exchange drawn on him for the balance together with‬
‭Rs 100 as interest. This bill of exchange is for 2 months and on the due‬
