Answer :

Answer:

To record Manya's admission into the firm and the necessary adjustments, we need to pass the following journal entries:

1. **To record Manya's capital and goodwill premium:**

\[

\text{Cash A/c} \rightarrow 1,00,000 \\

\text{Goodwill Premium A/c} \rightarrow 50,000 \\

\text{Manya's Capital A/c} \rightarrow 1,50,000

\]

2. **To adjust the outstanding electricity bill:**

\[

\text{Outstanding Electricity Bill A/c} \rightarrow 20,000 \\

\text{Cash A/c} \rightarrow 20,000

\]

3. **To adjust the overvaluation of stock:**

\[

\text{Stock A/c} \rightarrow 12,000 \\

\text{Profit and Loss A/c} \rightarrow 12,000

\]

These entries will reflect Manya's admission, the adjustment of the outstanding electricity bill, and the correction of the stock valuation.
