C. State whether the following statements are True or False with reasons:

Question 1.
An Inland bill is one that is drawn in one country and payable in another country.
Answer:
This statement is False.
Inland bill means, a bill drawn, accepted, and made payable within the territory of one and same, country. So, a bill is drawn in one country and payable in another country can’t be an inland bill.

Question 2.
Retirement of the bill means payment of the bill before the due date.
Answer:
This statement is True.
Payment of the bill, by the acceptor of the bill to the holder of the bill before the due date, is known as Retirement of the bill. So retirement of the bill means payment of the bill before the due date.

Question 3.
Drawee can transfer the ownership of the bill.
Answer:
This statement is False.
Drawee is a debtor. He has to pay the amount of the bill to its holder on the due date. Hence he cannot transfer its ownership to other people. The drawer can transfer the ownership of the bill as he is the owner of the bill.

Question 4.
Acceptance of the bill without making any changes in the terms of the bill is called qualified acceptance.
Answer:
This statement is False.
Acceptance of the bill with some changes as regards the terms, amount, place, etc. of a bill is known as qualified acceptance. Acceptance of the bill without making changes as regards the term is called general acceptance.

Maharashtra Board 12th BK Textbook Solutions Chapter 7 Bills of Exchange

Question 5.
Discounting is a device to convert the bill into its present value.
Answer:
This statement is True.
When the drawer or holder of the bill approaches the bank to discount the bill, the bank pays the bill amount after deducting a certain amount (which is known as discounting charges). It means conversion of the bill into its present value in cash. So, we can say that discounting is a device to convert the bill into its present value.

Question 6.
A bill of exchange must be presented to the acceptor on the due date.
Answer:
This statement is True.
To get the payment of the bill from the acceptor, the holder of the bill is required to present it to the acceptor on its due date. Acceptor either honours the bill or dishonours the bill.

Question 7.
If a bill is discounted by the holder, no entry is passed in his book when the bill is honoured on the due date.
Answer:
This statement is True.
On discounting the bill the holder gives the possession of the bill to the bank. On the maturity date, the bank has to present the bill to the drawee to collect the payment. When the discounted bill is honoured, the transaction takes place between drawee and bank.

Question 8.
Noting charges are to be borne by the drawer.
Answer:
This statement is False.
Noting charges are to be borne by the drawee only as due to his act of non-payment, the bill is dishonoured and the drawer is not able to get money on its due date.

Question 9.
If a bill is drawn payable ‘on demand’ no grace days are allowed.
Answer:
This statement is True.
‘On demand’ means the amount of the bill is to be paid by drawee immediately on presentation of the bill as no time period is mentioned on it. In demand bill, 3 days grace is not allowed by law.

Maharashtra Board 12th BK Textbook Solutions Chapter 7 Bills of Exchange

H. Calculations:

Question 1.
Ganesh draws a bill for ₹ 40,260 on 15th Jan. 2020 for 50 days. He discounted the bill with the Bank of India @ 15 % p.a. on the same day. Calculate the amount of discount.
Solution:
Discount = Amount of Bill × \(\frac{\text { Rate }}{100} \times \frac{\text { Unexpired days }}{366}\)
= 40,260 × \(\frac{15}{100} \times \frac{50}{366}\)
= ₹ 825
(Note: 2020 is a Leap year, so the total number of days = 366)

Question 2.
Shefali Traders drew a bill on Maya for ₹ 30,000 on 1st Oct. 2019 payable after 3 months.
Calculate the amount of discount in the following cases:
(i) Shefali Traders discounted the bill on the same day @ 12 % p.a.
(ii) Shefali Traders discounted the bill on 1st Nov. 2019 @ 12 % p.a.
(iii) Shefali Traders discounted the bill on 1st Dec. 2019 @ 12 % p.a.
Solution:
Discount = Amount of Bill × \(\frac{\text { Rate }}{100} \times \frac{\text { Unexpired days }}{365}\)
(i) Discount = 30,000 × \(\frac{12}{100} \times \frac{3}{12}\) = ₹ 900
(ii) Discount = 30,000 × \(\frac{12}{100} \times \frac{2}{12}\) = ₹ 600
(iii) Discount = 30,000 × \(\frac{12}{100} \times \frac{1}{12}\) = ₹ 300

Question 3.
Veena who had accepted Sudha’s bill for ₹ 28,000 was declared bankrupt and only 35 paise in a rupee could be recovered from her estate. Calculate the amount of bad debts.
Solution:
From Veena, only 35 paise in a rupee could be recovered i.e. 65 paise in a rupee is bad debt for Sudha. So 65% of ₹ 28,000 = ₹ 18,200 is the amount of bad debts.

Maharashtra Board 12th BK Textbook Solutions Chapter 7 Bills of Exchange

Question 4.
Nitin renewed his acceptance for ₹ 72,000 by paying ₹ 22,000 in cash and accepting a new bill for the balance plus interest @ 18%. p.a. for 4 months. Calculate the amount of the new bill.
Selution:
For Nitin,
Total outstanding = ₹ 72,000
Nitin paid in cash= ₹ 22,000
Remaining dues = ₹ 50,000
Now, on this ₹ 50,000 we have to calculate interest @ 18% for 4 months
I = \(\frac{\mathrm{PRN}}{100}\)
= 50,000 × \(\frac{18}{100} \times \frac{4}{12}\)
= ₹ 3,000
So, amount of new bill = Remaining dues + Interest
= 50,000 + 3,000
= ₹ 53,000

Question 5.
Nisha’s acceptance for ₹ 16,850 sent to the bank for the collection was honoured and bank charges debited were ₹ 125. Find out the amount actually received by Drawer.
Solution:
Bill of ₹ 16,850 sent to the bank for collection and it is honoured and bank charges = ₹ 125
So, actual amount received by drawer = 16,850 – 125 = ₹ 16,725.

Question 6.
