Video Explanation:

Working Notes:

1. Here only gross profit and net profit are to find out. Therefore, the Balance Sheet is not prepared.
2. Interest on 10% bank loan is calculated for 9 months (From 1/7/2018 to 31/3/2019):
   Interest = (PNR/100) = 8000 x 10% x (9/12) = ₹ 600
3. Goods distributed as free samples (₹ 1,800) is an advertisement expense for business. It's credited to Trading A/c (or deducted from Purchases) and debited to Profit & Loss A/c.
4. Calculation for R.B.D.D.:

   Sundry Debtors (as per Trial Balance)	₹ 40,000
   Add: Unrecorded Sales (Adjustment 5)	₹ 2,000
   Total Debtors before New Bad Debts	₹ 42,000
   Less: New Bad Debts (Adjustment 3)	₹ 800
   Debtors for R.D.D. calculation	₹ 41,200
   Less: New R.D.D. @ 3% on ₹ 41,200 (Adj. 3)	₹ 1,236
   Net Sundry Debtors (for Balance Sheet)	₹ 39,964

   Total for R.B.D.D A/c (to be debited to P&L A/c):
   New Bad Debts: ₹ 800
   New R.D.D.: ₹ 1,236
   Total = ₹ 800 + ₹ 1,236 = ₹ 2,036
