The name of the business is MKONGWE CAFÉ located at BUGURUNI SHELI, Ilala Dar es salaam. The business is owned by two persons namely Haji Ahmed and Osama with three workers.
The main activities of the business is to provide food services by offering different food items such as Tea, Milk, Chicken soup, Chapatti beans, Buns, Donats, Rice beans, Rice meat, Rice chicken and other food items. They started their business operation in 2010.
The business does not maintain proper accounting records; they do make daily purchase for all items of the cafe and sell almost all food items produced during the day. And at the end of the day they just compare the total purchases plus all the expenses incurred during the day with the sales volume they obtained in order to determine the profit, so they do calculate profit daily.
Apart from the fact that the business does not maintain any proper accounting records but we managed to obtain the data resources of the business at the commencement of the business and the summary of purchases, sales and expenses.
Resources of the business at the beginning
? Shelf 500,000/=
? Tables and Chairs 200,000/=
? Cooking utensils' 500,000/=
? Refrigerator 1,000,000/=
? Cooker 400,000/=
? Wheelbarrow 40,000/=
? Cash 200,000/=
These are the resources contributed by the owners at the beginning of the business which form the initial capital of 2,840,000/=
Also we managed to collect and combine together data concerned with purchases, sales and expenses because there were no records for such items. These data was provided by the owners according to their daily transactions experiences. So we just sum up all the items to obtain the day sales and purchases.
The following is the summary for the total purchases and sales;
Total purchases for a day:
DETALS: COST
Rice 7,500
Meat 12,250
Wheat flours 25,300
Chickens 50,000
Beans 2,250
Sugar 8,500
Cooking oil 25,500
Charcoals 6,000
Spices 7,650
TOTAL PURCHASES 144,950
So from the above data;
Total purchases for the year = 144,950 x 360 days
= 52,182,000/=
(b) Total sales for a day:
DETALS SELLING PRICE
Chapatti 48,500
Donats 40,000
Chicken soup 65,000
Buns 13,200
Rice and meat 30,000
Beans 9,000
Tea 21,600
TOTAL SALES 227,300
Therefore,
Total sales for the year = 227,300 x 360 days
= 81,828,000/=
Then their total expenses for the year are as follows
DETAILS COST

Repairs of refrigerator 100,000
New cooking utensils 100,000
