(a)

(i)

Materiality Information is material to the financial statements if its misstatement or omission might reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of financial statements. Example: the amount of an inventory write-down through obsolescence will only be disclosed in financial statements if material.

(ii)

Prudence Prudence in accounting means that a degree of caution is necessary when making estimates required under conditions of uncertainty, so that assets or income are not overstated and liabilities or expenses are not understated. Example: In deciding whether to make an allowance for a debt, an allowance should be made whenever there is doubt as to the eventual receipt of the cash.

1D INTBE Paper 1.1(INT)

(b)

(a)

Comparability is promoted by two main means: (i)

The requirement to treat similar items in the same way within each accounting period and from one period to the next, subject to the need to change treatments if, for example, a new accounting standard requires a change. There is also a requirement when there is a change to disclose full details of its effect.

(ii)

The requirement to disclose accounting policies and changes in them. This makes comparisons with other entities easier.

Four from: (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) (v)

(b)

Longer payment period for suppliers Increasing overdraft Increasing inventories Deterioration in quick ratio (acid test) Rapid increase in sales revenues and trade receivables.

Three from: (i)

Raise additional long-term capital (equity or loan) – this would introduce more cash into the current assets without increasing the current liabilities, thus improving the working capital position.

(ii)

Negotiate an increased overdraft facility.

(iii) Attempt to clear inventories by sales at reduced prices – this would generate more cash to pay suppliers and speed up the working capital cycle. (iv) Offer cash discounts to customers to encourage prompt payment – this too would generate more cash to pay suppliers and speed up the working capital cycle. (v)

Negotiate longer payment periods from suppliers – this would ease the pressure on the enterprise and allow it to pay suppliers from the proceeds of profitable sales in due course.

(vi) Sell non-essential assets – this would realise cash to increase working capital. Other items marked on their merits.

(a)

964,000

Going concern The going concern assumption means that financial statements are prepared on the basis that the business will continue for the foreseeable future. The application of the concept is relevant to many items in the financial statements. (i)

Inventory is valued on the basis that it will be disposed of in sales in the normal course of business rather than in a forced bulk sale.

(ii)

Non-current assets are valued at cost less depreciation rather than their immediate sale value.

(iii) Non-current liabilities are distinguished from current liabilities in assessing a company’s liquidity position. (b)

Accruals The accruals concept is that income and expenses are recognised in the period to which they relate and not in the period in which they are paid. The relevance of the concept is that profit or loss figures would be meaningless if the inclusion of items of income or expense depended on whether they had been received or paid.

(c)

Substance over form Substance over form means that if the real nature and effect of a transaction differ from its legal form, the real nature and effect should be recognised instead of the legal form, unless legislation prohibits this. The relevance of the concept is that its application improves the usefulness of the financial statements by preventing certain creative accounting practices.

(d)

Historical cost The historical cost convention is that assets are recorded at their initial cost and are not subsequently revalued upwards, and liabilities valued at the amount initially received in exchange for the obligation. The relevance of the convention is that figures remain objectively based on verifiable figures, but in times of high inflation historical cost can become a dubious convention to follow.

Comment All ratios show a marked deterioration in 2002 compared with 2001. Return on capital employed (ROCE) and return on owners’ equity (ROOE) are at reasonable levels in 2002, but are considerably below the levels in 2001. A possible cause is the decline in the gross profit percentage caused by reducing prices to increase sales. ROOE shows a return in excess of ROCE in both years, and well in excess of the interest payable on the loan, showing that the shareholders are continuing to benefit from the gearing effect of the loan. The current ratio is seriously reduced to a potentially dangerous level. The consequence is the slowness in paying suppliers, which must be eroding suppliers’ goodwill, evidenced by the increase in creditors’ days from 77 days to 160. In effect, suppliers’ money is being used to finance the very heavy purchasing of non-current assets. The inventory turnover ratio has declined, indicating a possible slowing of activity. The decline could be caused simply by a large purchase of goods just before the balance sheet date.

The directors of a company are considering the company’s draft financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2002. The following material points are unresolved: (a) One of the company’s buildings was destroyed in a flood in October 2002. The estimated value of the building was $4m, but it was insured for only $3m. The company’s going concern status is not jeopardised. The directors are unsure what adjustment or disclosure, if any, should be made. (2 marks) (b) The company gives warranties on its products at the time of sale, undertaking to repair or replace any defective item free of charge. Some directors believe that an allowance should be made for estimated warranty liabilities at 30 September 2002 based on sales to that date, and other directors argue that the expense of warranty work should be borne in the period in which it is incurred. (2 marks) (c) Some goods which had cost $120,000, and which were included in closing inventory at 30 September 2002 at that figure, were subsequently sold for $80,000 after they were found to have deteriorated while held in inventory. The directors are unsure whether to adjust the inventory figure downwards by $40,000 or allow the loss to fall in the period when the deterioration was discovered. (2 marks) (d) The company had supplied $100,000 worth of goods to a customer on a sale or return basis in September 2002. The transaction was included as a credit sale in the accounting records, and as a result a profit of $20,000 was taken. In October 2002 the customer returned all of the items in good condition. (4 marks) Required: Advise the board of directors as to the correct treatment of each of these items, quoting the authority for your advice in each case and stating the effect, if any, on the income statement and balance sheet.

The values of the land and the buildings need to be separated, because the land would not normally require depreciation. The revalued amount of the buildings should be depreciated over the estimated remaining useful economic life at the time of the revaluation. The straight-line method is usually adopted, but other methods such as the reducing balance method may be used.

(b)

Development costs should be amortised, using a method that reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the costs are consumed by the enterprise. If this pattern cannot be determined reliably, the straight-line method should be used. If the circumstances justifying the deferral of the expenditure cease to apply at any time, the expenditure should be written off to the extent that it is no longer recoverable.

5

(c)

Investments of this kind do not depreciate, though they may fluctuate in value. Accordingly no depreciation is provided for them.

(a)

IAS 10 Events after the Balance Sheet Date classifies this type of event as non-adjusting – no change to the figures in the financial statements is required but there should be a note to ensure that the financial statements are not misleading. The note should state the amount of the loss and the extent of the insurance cover.

(b)

A provision should be made for the estimated amount of the liabilities under warranties, as required by IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets. The provision will appear as a liability in the balance sheet and the operating profit will be reduced by the amount of the allowance.

(c)

This is an adjusting event according to IAS 10 Events after the Balance Sheet Date. The closing inventory should be reduced by $40,000 in the balance sheet and in cost of sales, thus reducing operating profit by this amount, unless it could be shown that the deterioration had taken place after the balance sheet date

(d)

The goods have to be treated as trading inventory at September 2002, applying generally accepted accounting principles. The effect on the income statement and balance sheet will be: (i)

Sales and trade receivables both reduced by $100,000.

(ii)

Closing inventory increased by $80,000.

The combined effect of the two adjustments is to reduce current assets and profit by $20,000.

Comments (i)

The current ratio and quick ratio are both down by over 20%. The drop in the quick ratio to below 1:1 could indicate liquidity problems.

(ii)

The increase in sales, and hence in receivables, purchases and payables, is placing strain on the working capital, evidenced by the increase in the receivables and payables payment periods.

(iii) The business is one requiring large holdings of inventory, but inventory control appears to have deteriorated slightly between the two years (iv) Cash sales have decreased considerably in 2003. Making more sales for cash could contribute to an improvement in the current and quick ratios because this would reduce the overdraft. Other comments considered on their merits.

(a)

(i)

Reserves are balances in a company’s balance sheet forming part of the equity interest and representing surpluses or gains, whether realised or not.

(ii)

Share premium account The surplus arising when shares are issued at a price in excess of their par value. Revaluation reserve The unrealised gain when the amount at which non-current assets are carried is increased above cost. (Other examples given credit on their merits)

(b)

A bonus issue is the conversion of reserves into share capital, with shares being issued to existing members in proportion to their shareholdings, without any consideration being given by the shareholders. A rights issue is again an issue of shares to existing members in proportion to their shareholdings, but with payment being made by the shareholders for the shares allotted to them. The fundamental difference between them is that the rights issue raises funds for the company whereas the bonus issue does not.

(a)

The basic principle for the valuation of inventory according to IAS 2 Inventories is to take the lower of cost and net realisable value. The 3,000 skirts should therefore be included at cost $40,000, and the jackets should be valued at net realisable value: $ $25,000 less $1,800 23,200 $20,000 less $2,000 18,000 ––––––– 41,200 –––––––

(b)

IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets requires contingent liabilities of this kind and degree of probability be disclosed by note, detailing the nature of the contingent liability and an estimate of the financial effect. The $100,000 should therefore be removed and the note substituted. Provision should be made for legal expenses to be incurred.

5

(c)

IAS 10 Events after the Balance Sheet Date classifies this as a non-adjusting event but a note giving details of the event and its financial effect (a loss of $180,000 plus $228,000 = $408,000) is required as the item is material enough to influence a reader of the financial statements.

(a)

(i)

Profit on a sale is calculated by taking the difference between historical cost and sale proceeds. When prices are rising, as they usually are, the ‘holding gain’ arising while the goods were held in inventory is included as part of the profit, ignoring the fact that it will cost more to replace the item.

(ii)

Depreciation based on the historical cost of assets understates the real value of the benefit obtained from the use of these assets if prices have risen since the assets were acquired. Profit is thus overstated.

(iii) The retention of historical values for non-current assets in the balance sheet understates their actual value. This can mislead shareholders when the balance sheet value of the business is used when calculating return on capital employed. (b)

(i)

It is simple and cheap

(ii)

Figures used are objective and verifiable.

(iii) Lack of a sound and acceptable alternative.

All three ratios show deterioration. The large increase in the inventory holding period suggests that the company is having difficulty making sales in the closing months of the period. Customers are taking longer to pay, placing further strain on the company’s liquid position. The company is attempting to finance the increased inventory and receivables by paying its suppliers more slowly, which will probably have the effect of losing supplier goodwill.

(a)

The main reason for the decline is the reduced gross profit percentage. If the gross profit percentage of 2002 (25 per cent) had continued in 2003, an additional $450,000 of profit would have been made. Instead, the gross profit percentage went down to 20 per cent. Other contributing factors are: – the new non-current assets ($700,000) were not acquired until near the end of the year, and thus may not be fully operational – the share issue also took place right at the end of the year, and so has not yet been deployed in profit-earning assets.

Comparability means that users are able to draw conclusions about the performance or financial position of a business by relating figures for a particular period to other relevant figures. Possible types of comparison are: (i) comparison with figures for the same business for earlier periods (ii) comparison with figures for other businesses for the same period (iii) comparison with budgets or forecasts (Two types required for full marks)

from: by requiring the disclosure of accounting policies and the effect of changes in them by reducing or eliminating the number of possible alternative treatments for similar items available to businesses by requiring businesses to treat similar items in the same way within each period and from one period to the next, unless a change is required to comply with accounting standards or to ensure that a more appropriate presentation of events or transactions is provided.

The use of historical cost accounting can mislead users when prices are rising in the following ways: (i)

Depreciation is based on the original cost of non-current assets and thus understates the true value obtained by the business from the use of these assets. The result is that profit is overstated.

(ii)

Inventory is often valued at cost, using FIFO or average costs. If prices are rising, sales in current terms are matched with cost of sales in historical cost terms. Profit is again overstated.

(iii) Balance sheet values of assets may become seriously below their current value. (iv) The combined effects of the above three factors mean that return on capital employed is overstated. (v)

Year on year comparison of results is likely to be misleading as figures will show an automatic increase as prices rise, when in real terms sales and profits may have risen far less, or even have fallen.

Any four points needed for full marks.

It has been decided to revalue the land and buildings to $12,000,000 at 31 December 2004. Trade receivables totalling $200,000 are to be written off. During the year there was a contra settlement of $106,000 in which an amount due to a supplier was set off against the amount due from the same company for goods sold to it. No entry has yet been made to record the set-off. Some inventory items included in the draft balance sheet at cost $500,000 were sold after the balance sheet date for $400,000, with selling expenses of $40,000. The suspense account is made up of two items: (a) The proceeds of issue of 4,000,000 50c shares at $1·10 per share, credited to the suspense account from the cash book. (b) The balance of the account is the proceeds of sale of some plant on 1 January 2004 with a net book value at the date of sale of $700,000 and which had originally cost $1,400,000. No other accounting entries have yet been made for the disposal apart from the cash book entry for the receipt of the proceeds. Depreciation on plant has been charged at 25% (straight line basis) in preparing the draft balance sheet without allowing for the sale. The depreciation for the year relating to the plant sold should be adjusted for in full.

Required: Prepare the company’s balance sheet as at 31 December 2004, complying as far as possible with IAS1 Presentation of financial statements. Details of non-current assets, adjusted appropriately, should appear as they are presented in the question. (12 marks) 11 FOR FREE ACCA RESOURCES VISIT: http://kaka-pakistani.blogspot.com

The draft financial statements of Choctaw, a limited liability company, for the year ended 31 December 2004 showed a profit of $86,400. The trial balance did not balance, and a suspense account with a credit balance of $3,310 was included in the balance sheet. In subsequent checking the following errors were found: (a) Depreciation of motor vehicles at 25 per cent was calculated for the year ended 31 December 2004 on the reducing balance basis, and should have been calculated on the straight-line basis at 25 per cent. Relevant figures: Cost of motor vehicles $120,000, net book value at 1 January 2004, $88,000 (b) Rent received from subletting part of the office accommodation $1,200 had been put into the petty cash box. No receivable balance had been recognised when the rent fell due and no entries had been made in the petty cash book or elsewhere for it. The petty cash float in the trial balance is the amount according to the records, which is $1,200 less than the actual balance in the box. (c) Bad debts totalling $8,400 are to be written off. (d) The opening accrual on the motor repairs account of $3,400, representing repair bills due but not paid at 31 December 2003, had not been brought down at 1 January 2004. (e) The cash discount totals for December 2004 had not been posted to the discount accounts in the nominal ledger. The figures were: Discount allowed Discount received

$ 380 290

After the necessary entries, the suspense account balanced. Required: Prepare journal entries, with narratives, to correct the errors found, and prepare a statement showing the necessary adjustments to the profit. (10 marks)

(a)

A highly-geared company has an obligation to pay interest on its loans regardless of its profit level. It will show high profits if its overall rate of return on capital is greater than the rate of interest being paid on its borrowings, but a low profit or a loss if there is a down-turn in its profit such that the rate of interest to be paid exceeds the return on its assets.

(b)

(i)

One company may have revalued its assets while the other has not.

(ii)

Accounting policies and estimation techniques may differ. For example, one company may use higher depreciation rates than the other.

(iii) The use of historical cost accounting may distort the capital and profit of the two companies in different ways. Other answers considered on their merits.

5

(a)

The correct treatment is to provide for the best estimate of the costs likely to be incurred under the warranty, as required by IAS37 Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets.

(b)

The inventories should be valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is $80,000, net realisable value is $85,000 less 10%, or $76,500. The net realisable value of $76,500 should therefore be taken (IAS2 Inventories)

(c)

The opening inventory should be included in the current year’s income statement at the corrected figure, and the opening balance of retained profit reduced by $100,000. The $100,000 reduction will appear in the statement of changes in equity. (IAS8 Accounting policies, changes in accounting estimates and errors)

The directors of Umbria, a limited liability company, are reviewing the company’s draft financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2005. The following material matters are under discussion: (1) After the balance sheet date one of the company’s factories was seriously damaged by fire. Insurance will only cover part of the loss suffered. The company’s going concern status is not affected. (2) Umbria guaranteed the overdraft of another company in 2003. No disclosure has been made in previous financial statements, but events in the latter part of the year ended 30 June 2005 suggest that it is probable that a liability will fall on Umbria in 2006. (3) One of the company’s directors was dismissed during 2005 for disclosing confidential information to a competitor. Umbria has commenced an action against this director, and the company has been advised that it is probable that substantial damages will be awarded. (4) One of the company’s buildings was revalued during the year. The directors are uncertain as to how the revaluation surplus should be included in the financial statements. The surplus has been separately disclosed as an item in the draft income statement. Required: Explain how each of these four matters should be dealt with in the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2005, stating in each case the relevant accounting standard. (10 marks)

(1) The factory was in good condition at 30 June 2005, and thus the fire is a non-adjusting event according to IAS 10 Events after the balance sheet date. Details of the fire and an estimate of the loss suffered should be disclosed by note. (2) According to IAS 37 Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets, contingencies such as this are to be provided for as soon as it becomes probable that a liability will arise. A provision should therefore be made for the best estimate of the loss that will arise. (3) This constitutes a ‘probable’ contingent asset under IAS 37, and thus should be disclosed by note, explaining the nature of the contingent asset and, if possible, an estimate of the financial effect. (4) It is incorrect to include the revaluation gain in the income statement, because the gain is unrealised. It should be credited to revaluation reserve and shown in the balance sheet. The gain should also be shown in the statement of changes in equity (IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment and IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements).

5

Four accounting concepts needed for full marks. Examples: (i)

Accruals concept The accruals concept is that transactions are reflected in the accounting period in which they occur, rather than the period in which any cash involved is received or paid. If this concept is not followed, expenses, income, assets and liabilities are all liable to be misstated and fair presentation will not be achieved.

(ii)

Going concern concept The going concern concept is that financial statements should be prepared on the basis that the business will continue for the foreseeable future. If this concept is not followed, assets and liabilities, and hence income and expenses, will be distorted, except, of course, in the rare case that the business is in fact no longer a going concern.

(iii) Prudence concept Prudence means that a degree of caution should be exercised in making estimates of figures for the financial statements, so that assets are not overstated and liabilities are not understated. If the prudence concept is not followed, fair presentation is unlikely to be achieved because assets and liabilities may be shown at unrealistic values. (iv) Neutrality Neutrality means that information in financial statements should be free from deliberate or systematic bias. If this concept is not followed, information may be presented in a misleading way and a fair presentation will not result. (v)

Substance over form The legal form of a transaction may not represent the true nature of that transaction. The concept of substance over form is that, whenever legally possible, the substance or reality of a transaction should be accounted for rather than its legal form.

Other concepts considered on their merits.

(a) The working capital cycle illustrates the changing make-up of working capital in the course of the trading operations of a business: 1

Purchases are made on credit and the goods go into inventory.

2

Inventory is sold and converted into receivables

3

Credit customers pay their accounts

To the directors of Ambia

8 June 2006

Comments on proposals under consideration (a) Proposed bonus issue. There are several problems in connection with the proposed bonus issue: (i)

A bonus issue would not raise any capital for the company. To raise capital a rights issue (or an issue at full market price) would be necessary.

(ii) For either a bonus issue or a rights issue to be possible, the authorised capital would have to be increased. (iii) There are insufficient reserves to make a bonus issue of $500,000 worth of shares. (b) Paying a dividend of 10c per share. There are insufficient retained earnings to pay a dividend of more than 5c per share. (c) IFRS 3 Business combinations does not allow goodwill to be revalued upwards. (d) It is not possible to combine the reserves as suggested. IAS1 Presentation of financial statements requires retained earnings to be shown seperately from other reserves.

(a)

Following the matching concept, to reflect in operating profit the cost of use of tangible non-current assets (the amount of economic benefits consumed).

(b)

It is not normally necessary to depreciate land, unless it is subject to depletion in some way – a quarry for example. Buildings should be depreciated like any other non-current asset so as to allocate their depreciable amount (cost or valuation) over their useful economic life.

23 FOR FREE ACCA RESOURCES VISIT: http://kaka-pakistani.blogspot.com

(c)

(i)

Straight line. The depreciable amount of an asset, less any residual value, is written off in equal instalments over its estimated useful economic life.

(ii)

Reducing balance. Depreciation is calculated as a percentage of the net book value of the asset at the end of each period.

Other answers to (c) considered on their merits.

5

(a)

If the event provides evidence of conditions that existed at the balance sheet date, adjustment must be made, if material. Adjustment is also required if an event after the balance sheet date indicates that the going concern basis of accounting is no longer appropriate.

(b)

(i)

Non-current assets are normally valued at cost or valuation less depreciation. If the going concern basis was no longer appropriate, net realisable value on the basis of a short-term sale would have to be adopted instead, and the assets would be included in current assets.

(ii)

Inventory is normally valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. If the going concern basis no longer applied, net realisable value on the basis of a short-term sale would have to be substituted.

(iii) Loan notes, if shown as non-current liabilities, would have to be reclassified as current liabilities.

Heavy spending on non-current assets, depleting cash or increasing overdraft. Such expenditure comes out of current assets, and will reduce both the current ratio and the quick ratio. (ii) Write-downs of inventory through obsolescence or fashion changes. This will reduce the current ratio. (iii) Repayment of long-term loans (iv) Payment of high dividends (v) Reduction in receivables as a result of bad debts

The main applicable accounting concepts are accruals and prudence. The accruals concept favours capitalisation of development expenditure to match the expenditure against the future income to be generated from it. The prudence concept argues for caution, having regard to the inevitable doubt as to the successful outcome of the development project. The going concern concept is also relevant, because doubt as to the going concern status of the company would clearly mean that the capitalisation of development costs could not be justified. Other concepts considered on their merits.
