"Principals of Advanced Accounting" by M.A Ghani. You need to prepare chapter of financial ratios from that book only.

Dear ratios are the easiest topic. Here are the various types of ratios:

1 Profitability ratios
2 Liquidity ratios
3 Activity ratios (Efficiency Ratios)
4 Debt ratios (leveraging ratios)
5 Market ratios
6 Capital budgeting ratios
You can study its details at this link and if you still find some problem then we can discuss it here. Do read their interpretations also as they are very helpful for aspirants in their fledgling stage of preparation.

That's very nice, but I recommend you to go through the book as well. Brcause there are lot of problems there which you can practice. Also formulas are bit different everywhere. It is better to follow Pakistan standards.

Conventions are the general accounting views to be taken into consideration while preparing Accounts.
If you are having accounting knowledge you must have studied the concepts like:
Prudence concept, separate entity concept, revenue recognition principles etc. they all fall into conventions and are the very basic concepts of accounting.

Let me solve the first 2 cases of Q No. 3 Paper I:
A) Supplies for personal use cannot be recorded as expense as Separate Business Entity Convention is applicable, So transaction should have been:
Drawings Dr
Cash/Bank Cr.
B) IAS 18 related to revenue provides guidline for the recording of service revenue. According to it Cash Basis should not be used rather one should record service revenue as the service has been rendered.

Hope you find the answer

Sorry for a mistake dear, In the double entry for A) instead of crediting Cash/Bank we will credit Supplies as they were used from out of business stock.

Thanks
