In Italy, a company that does not report under IFRSs must still present treasury shares as assets. In addition, a purchase of own shares requires a transfer from reserves to an distributable “treasury stock” reserve within equity. Once treasury shares are resold or retired, such a reserve becomes free to the extent of the excess of purchase value over par value per share, and is reversed to the equity reserves from which it was originally sourced. On first-time adoption of IFRSs, such companies have to reclassify treasury stock from asset to equity and to reverse the treasury stock reserve to the equity reserves from which it was originally sourced or to the beginning balance of retained earnings in the opening IFRS statement of financial position.

Most of the debate on pension accounting is related to alternative recognition methods. Deferred recognition is the accounting model for pensions under pre-2011 IAS 19. The pre-2007 version of IAS 19 adopted an election of immediate recognition in income directly in equity, as opposed to net income. Pre-2011 IAS 19 uses a model that recognizes certain gains and losses in other comprehensive income but with immediate transfer to retained earnings. IAS 19 (2011) goes to immediate recognition in profit or loss but recognition of the measurement component in other comprehensive income with no subsequent recycling. Topic 715 (FASB Statement No. 158) continues the past practice of delaying recognition of actuarial gains and losses as a component of net periodic benefit cost but recognizes the entire funded status of a plan in other comprehensive income.

A French foreign private issuer replied to the SEC Staff, in the context of the review of Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 containing financial statements prepared for the first time on the basis of IFRSs. The company applied the treatment under FASB Statement No. 130 (based on which prior period adjustments that would affect other comprehensive income must not be displayed in comprehensive income for the period as they recast the comprehensive income of prior periods) to the IFRS financial report. At the time of these letters, the 2007 Revision of IAS 1 was not yet issued.

For example, on initial recognition a temporary difference may exist if the tax basis of the convertible debt includes the entire amount of the instrument, while split accounting requires the recognition of both a liability and an equity component. An entity must recognize a deferred tax liability at the time of the transaction because the initial recognition of the instrument affects taxable profit or loss and therefore the transaction does not fall within the IAS 12 exception for recognition of deferred taxation on initial recognition of an asset or liability. From the perspective of the income statement, the deferred tax liability at the end of each period corresponds to the aggregate income tax deduction on the difference between the nominal interest expense and the imputed interest expense for the remaining life of the instrument.

(9) Fair Value as Deemed Cost [extract]
The company has applied the IFRS 1 election to record certain assets of property, plant and equipment at fair value on the Transition Date. The exemption has been applied to refinery assets located in Eastern Canada and certain natural gas assets in Western Canada. When estimating fair value, market information for similar assets was used, and where market information was not available, management relied on internally generated cash flow models using discount rates specific to the asset and long-term forecasts of commodity prices and refining margins. The aggregate of these fair values was $1.370 billion, resulting in a reduction of the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment as at January 1, 2010. Under Previous GAAP, impairment losses were recorded in the third quarter of 2010 for certain of these natural gas properties. There were no impairment losses recognized during 2010 under IFRS, as these properties were adjusted to fair value at the Transition Date. The impacts on the financial statements were as follows:

Deemed cost of property, plant and equipment
Entity A used to revalue items of property, plant and equipment to fair value under its previous GAAP, but changed its accounting policy on 1 January 2006 when it adopted a different accounting policy. Under that accounting policy, Entity A did not depreciate the asset and only recognized the maintenance costs as an expense. Entity A”s date of transition to IFRSs is 1 January 2012.
In its balance sheet under previous GAAP the carrying amount of the asset is £80 at the date of transition to IFRSs, which is equal to the last revaluation. Entity A can use the last revalued amount as the deemed cost of the asset on 1 January 2006. However, Entity A will need to apply IAS 16 to the period after 1 January 2006 because the accounting policy under its previous GAAP is not permitted under IFRSs. Assuming that the economic life of the asset is 40 years and that the residual value is nil, Entity A would account for the asset at £68 in its opening IFRS statement of financial position, which represents the deemed cost minus 6 years of depreciation.
C Summary
At its date of transition to IFRSs, a first-time adopter is allowed under IFRS 1 to measure each item of property, plant and equipment, investment properties and intangible assets at an amount based on:
- historical cost determined in accordance with IAS 16, IAS 38 and IAS 40;
- fair value at the date of transition to IFRSs;
- a previous GAAP revaluation amount that is equal to:
- fair value at the date of revaluation;
- cost adjusted for changes in a general or specific index; or
- an event-driven fair value, for example, at the date of an initial public offering or privatization.
- in the case of an item acquired in a business combination:
- carrying amount under previous GAAP immediately after acquisition; or
- if the item was not recognised under previous GAAP, the carrying amount on the basis that IFRSs would require in the separate balance sheet of the acquiree.
- in the case of oil and gas assets at deemed cost ;or
- in the case of assets used or previously used in operations subject to rate regulation .
The fact that IFRS 1 offers so many different bases for measurement does not disturb the IASB as it reasons that ‘cost is generally equivalent to fair value at the date of acquisition. Therefore, the use of fair value as the deemed cost of an asset means that an entity will report the same cost data as if it had acquired an asset with the same remaining service potential at the date of transition to IFRSs. If there is any lack of comparability, it arises from the aggregation of costs incurred at different dates, rather than from the targeted use of fair value as deemed cost for some assets. The Board regarded this approach as justified to solve the unique problem of introducing IFRSs in a cost-effective way without damaging transparency. [IFRS 1.BC43]. Although this is valid, it still means that an individual first-time adopter can greatly influence its future reported performance by carefully selecting a first-time adoption policy for the valuation of its assets. Users of the financial statements of a first-time adopter should therefore be mindful that historical trends under the previous GAAP might no longer be present in an entity”s IFRS financial statements.
5.5.2 Event-driven fair value measurement as deemed cost
A first-time adopter may use fair value measurements that arose from an event such as a privatisation or initial public offering as deemed cost for IFRSs at the date of that measurement. [IFRS 1 Appendix D8].
IFRS 1 describes these revaluations as ‘deemed cost in accordance with previous GAAP. Therefore, to the extent that they related to an event that occurred prior to its date of transition or during the comparative period presented under IFRS, they can only be used as the basis for deemed cost if they were recognised in the first-time adopter”s previous GAAP financial statements. See below for an extension of the scope of this deemed cost exemption to events that occurred subsequent to the first-time adopter”s date of transition to IFRSs but during the period covered by the first IFRS financial statements.
The ‘fair value or revaluation as deemed cost exemption discussed at above, only applies to items of property, plant and equipment, investment property and certain intangible assets. [IFRS 1 Appendix D5-7]. The event-driven deemed cost exemption is broader in scope because it states when a first-time adopter ‘established a deemed cost in accordance with previous GAAP for some or all of its assets and liabilities [emphasis added] by measuring them at their fair value at one particular date … It may use such event-driven fair value measurements as deemed cost for IFRSs at the date of that measurement. [IFRS 1 Appendix D8, IFRS 1.BC46].
There are two important limitations in the scope of this exemption:
- While it applies, in principle, to all assets and liabilities of an entity, it does not override the recognition criteria in IFRSs. [IFRS 1.10]. Consequently, a first-time adopter should derecognise goodwill, assets (e.g. certain intangible assets such as brand names and research) and liabilities that do not qualify for recognition under IFRSs in the balance sheet of the entity; and
- The exemption cannot be used if the event-driven revaluation did not result in a remeasurement to full fair value (i.e. it cannot be used in the case of a partial step-up towards fair value).
Finally, although a first-time adopter may use the event-driven fair value measurements as deemed cost for any asset or liability, it does not have to use them for all assets and liabilities. [IFRS 1 Appendix D8].
A ‘Push down accounting
Under some previous GAAPs an entity may have prepared its financial statements using ‘push down accounting, that is, the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities is based on their fair value at the date it became a subsidiary of its parent. If such a subsidiary subsequently adopts IFRSs, it will often require a very significant effort to determine the carrying amount of those assets and liabilities on a historical costs basis at the date of transition.
The event-driven deemed cost exemption applies to events ‘such as a privatisation or initial public offering. [IFRS 1 Appendix D8]. This list of events is clearly not meant to be exhaustive, but rather describes events that result in re-measurement of some or all assets and liabilities at their fair value. An acquisition that results in an entity becoming a subsidiary is a change of control event similar to a privatisation or an initial public offering. In our view, the application of ‘push down accounting results in event-driven fair value measurements that may be used as deemed cost for IFRSs at the date of that measurement.
The exemption can only be used if ‘push down accounting resulted in recognising assets and liabilities at their fair value. For example, previous GAAP may not have required remeasurement to full fair value in the case of a partial acquisition or a step-acquisition, or if there was a bargain purchase that was allocated, for example, to reduce the fair values of long-lived assets.
B ‘Fresh start accounting
Some previous GAAPs require an entity that emerges from bankruptcy to apply ‘fresh start accounting, which involves recognition of assets and liabilities at their fair value at that date.
In our view, the application of ‘fresh start accounting results in an event-driven fair value measurement that may be used as deemed cost for IFRSs at the date of that measurement. [IFRS 1 Appendix D8]. The use of the exemption is limited to instances that resulted in the recognition of the related assets and liabilities at their full fair value (i.e. it cannot be used in the case of a partial step-up towards fair value).
Exemption for event-driven revaluations after the date of transition
The event-driven exemption includes events whose measurement date is after the date of transition to IFRSs but during the periods covered by the first IFRS financial statements. The ‘event-driven fair value measurements may be used as deemed cost when the event occurs. An entity shall recognise the resulting adjustments directly in retained earnings (or if appropriate, another category of equity) at the measurement date. [IFRS 1 Appendix D8(b)].
The Board explicitly considered whether or not to allow a first-time adopter that uses a revaluation subsequent to the date of transition to ‘work back the deemed cost on the date of transition to IFRSs using the revaluation amounts subsequently obtained on the date of measurement, adjusted to exclude any depreciation, amortisation or impairment between the date of transition to IFRSs and the date of that measurement. [IFRS 1.BC46B]. The Board rejected this approach ‘because making such adjustment would require hindsight and the computed carrying amounts on the date of transition to IFRSs would be neither the historical costs of the revalued assets nor their fair values on that date. [IFRS 1 Appendix D8B, BC46B]. This restriction seems to limit the usefulness of the exemption for first time adopters; however, it should provide relief from the need to keep two sets of books subsequent to the event.
5.5.3 Deemed cost for oil and gas assets
It is common practice in some countries to account for exploration and development costs for properties in development or production in cost centres that include all properties in a large geographical area, e.g. under the ‘full cost accounting method. However, this method of accounting generally uses a unit of account that is much larger than is acceptable under IFRSs. Applying IFRSs fully retrospectively would pose significant problems for first-time adopters because it would also require amortisation ‘to be calculated (on a unit of production basis) for each year, using a reserves base that has changed over time because of changes in factors such as geological understanding and prices for oil and gas. In many cases, particularly for older assets, this information may not be available. [IFRS 1.BC47A]. Even when such information is available the effort and cost to determine the opening balances at the date of transition would usually be very high.
For these entities, use of the fair value or revaluation as deemed cost exemption , however, was not considered to be suitable because: [IFRS 1.BC47B]
‘…Determining the fair value of oil and gas assets is a complex process that begins with the difficult task of estimating the volume of reserves and resources. When the fair value amounts must be audited, determining significant inputs to the estimates generally requires the use of qualified external experts. For entities with many oil and gas assets, the use of this fair value as deemed cost alternative would not meet the Board”s stated intention of avoiding excessive cost …
The IASB, therefore, decided to grant an exemption for first-time adopters that accounted under their previous GAAP for ‘exploration and development costs for oil and gas properties in the development or production phases … in cost centres that include all properties in a large geographical area. [IFRS 1 Appendix D8A]. Under the exemption, a first-time adopter may elect to measure oil and gas assets at the date of transition to IFRSs on the following basis: [IFRS 1 Appendix D8A]
(a) exploration and evaluation assets at the amount determined under the entity”s previous GAAP; and
(b) assets in the development or production phases at the amount determined for the cost centre under the entity”s previous GAAP. This amount should be allocated to the cost centre”s underlying assets pro rata using reserve volumes or reserve values as of that date.
For this purpose, oil and gas assets comprise only those assets used in the exploration, evaluation, development or production of oil and gas.
A first-time adopter that uses the exemption under (b) should disclose that fact and the basis on which carrying amounts determined under previous GAAP were allocated. [IFRS 1.31A].
To avoid the use of deemed costs resulting in an oil and gas asset being measured at more than its recoverable amount, the Board also decided that oil and gas assets that were valued using this exemption should be tested for impairment at the date of transition to IFRSs as follows: [IFRS 1 Appendix D8A]
- exploration and evaluation assets should be tested for impairment under IFRS 6; and
- assets in the development and production phases should be tested for impairment under IAS 36.
The deemed cost amounts should be reduced to take account of any impairment charge.
Finally, a first-time adopter that applies the deemed cost exemption for oil and gas assets should also apply the IFRIC 1 – Changes in Existing Decommissioning, Restoration and Similar Liabilities – exemption for oil and gas assets at deemed cost.

27 Reconciliation of Transition from Canadian GAAP to IFRS [extract]
Explanatory notes [extract]
(b) The Company elected under IFRS 1 to deem the Canadian GAAP carrying value of its oil and gas assets accounted for under the full cost method as at January 1, 2010 as their deemed cost under IFRS as at that date. As such, the Canadian GAAP full cost pool was reallocated upon transition to IFRS and the 2010 comparatives were restated to reflect the new IFRS accounting policies as follows:
i. In accordance with IAS 16, IAS 38 and IFRS 6 on January 1, 2010 the Company reallocated costs of $24.37 million relating to unproved properties from property, plant and equipment to exploration and evaluation assets.
ii. Under Canadian GAAP, all costs incurred prior to having obtained licence rights and lease expiries were included within property, plant and equipment. Under IFRS, such expenditures are expensed as incurred. There was no impact on adoption of IFRS due to the full cost as deemed cost exemption. However, the comparative 2010 balances were restated at December 31, 2010 resulting in a reduction in property, plant and equipment and retained earnings of $2.81 million, and an increase in exploration and evaluation expenses for the year of the same amounts.
iii. The remaining full cost pool was allocated to the developed and producing assets pro rata using reserve values.
iv. Under IFRS, impairment tests must be performed at a more lower reporting level than was required under Canadian GAAP. The Canadian GAAP “ceiling test” incorporated a 2-step approach for testing impairment, while IFRS uses a 1-step approach. Under Canadian GAAP, a discounted cash flow analysis was not required if the undiscounted cash flows from proved reserves exceeded the carrying amount (step 1). If the carrying amount exceeded the undiscounted future cash flows, then a prescribed discounted cash flow test was performed (step 2). Under IFRS, impairment testing is based on discounted cash flows and is calculated at the CGU level. Impairment tests are required to be performed at the transition date, and as at January 1, 2010 no impairment was identified. At December 31, 2010 an impairment test was performed and four of the Company”s CGUs were found to have impairment.

Deemed cost for assets used in operations subject to rate regulation
Entities that hold items of property, plant and equipment or intangible assets that are used, or were previously used, in operations subject to rate regulation might have capitalised, as part of the carrying amount, amounts that do not qualify for capitalisation in accordance with IFRSs. For example, when setting rates, regulators often permit entities to capitalise, an allowance for the cost of financing the asset”s acquisition, construction or production. This allowance typically includes an imputed cost of equity. IFRSs do not permit an entity to capitalise an imputed cost of equity. [IFRS 1.BC47F]. The IASB decided to permit a first-time adopter with operations subject to rate regulations to elect to use the previous GAAP carrying amount of such an item at the date of transition to IFRSs as deemed cost. [IFRS 1 Appendix D8B]. In the Board”s view, this exemption is consistent with other exemptions in IFRS 1 in that it ‘avoids excessive cost while meeting the objectives of the IFRS. [IFRS 1.BC47I].
Operations are subject to rate regulation if they provide goods or services to customers at prices (i.e. rates) established by an authorised body empowered to establish rates that bind the customers and that are designed to recover the specific costs the entity incurs in providing the regulated goods or services and to earn a specified return. The specified return could be a minimum or range and need not be a fixed or guaranteed return. [IFRS 1 Appendix D8B].
Without this exemption, a first-time adopter with operations subject to rate regulations would have had either to restate those items retrospectively to remove the non-qualifying amounts, or to use fair value as deemed cost both alternatives, the Board reasoned, pose significant practical challenges and the cost of which can outweigh the benefits. [IFRS 1.BC47G]. Typically, once amounts are included in the total cost of an item of property, plant and equipment, they are no longer tracked separately. Therefore, their removal would require historical information that, given the age of some of the assets involved, is probably no longer available and would be difficult to estimate. For many of these assets, it may be impractical to use the fair value exemption as such information may not be readily available.

IFRS 1 does not include any specific exemption from the retrospective application of IAS 17 Leases and SIC-15 Operating Leases Incentives. Therefore, a first-time adopter is required to classify leases as operating or finance leases under IAS 17 based on the circumstances existing at the inception of the lease and not those existing at the date of transition to IFRSs. [IFRS 1.IG14]. However, if ‘at any time the lessee and the lessor agree to change the provisions of the lease, other than by renewing the lease, in a manner that would have resulted in a different classification of the lease … if the changed terms had been in effect at the inception of the lease, the revised agreement is regarded as a new agreement over its term. [IAS 17.13]. In other words, an entity classifies a lease based on the lease terms that are in force at its date of transition to IFRSs; the lease classification is not based on lease terms that are no longer in force.

Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease – contains specific transitional provisions for existing IFRS-reporting entities that address the practical difficulties of going back potentially many years and making a meaningful assessment of whether the arrangement satisfied the criteria at that time. First-time adopters may apply the same transitional provisions, which allow them to apply IFRIC 4 to arrangements existing at their date of transition on the basis of facts and circumstances existing at that date. [IFRS 1 Appendix D9]. The example below based on the implementation guidance in IFRS 1 illustrates this exemption. [IFRS 1 IG Example 202].
Aug 29, 2021 | Uncategorized
Parent adopts IFRSs before subsidiary
Entity A presents its (consolidated) first IFRS financial statements in 2008. Its foreign subsidiary B, wholly owned by Entity A since formation, prepares information under IFRSs for internal consolidation purposes from that date, but Subsidiary B will not present its first IFRS financial statements until 2013.
If Subsidiary B applies option (a), the carrying amounts of its assets and liabilities are the same in both its opening IFRS statement of financial position at 1 January 2012 and Entity A”s consolidated balance sheet (except for adjustments for consolidation procedures) and are based on Entity A”s date of transition.
Alternatively, Subsidiary B may apply option (b) and measure all its assets or liabilities based on its own date of transition to IFRSs (1 January 2012). However, the fact that Subsidiary B becomes a first-time adopter in 2013 does not change the carrying amounts of its assets and liabilities in Entity A”s consolidated financial statements.
Under option (b) a subsidiary would prepare its own IFRS financial statements, completely ignoring the IFRS reports that its parent uses in preparing its consolidated financial statements.
Under option (a) the numbers in a subsidiary”s IFRS financial statements will be as close to those used by its parent as possible. However, differences other than those arising from business combinations will still exist in many cases, for example:
- a subsidiary may have hedged an exposure by entering into a transaction with a fellow subsidiary. Such transaction could qualify for hedge accounting in the subsidiary”s own financial statements but not in the parent”s consolidated financial statements; or
- a pension plan may have to be classified as a defined contribution plan from the subsidiary”s point of view, but is accounted for as a defined benefit plan in the parent”s consolidated financial statements.
The IASB seems content with the fact that the exemption will ease some practical problems, [IFRS 1.BC62], though it will rarely succeed in achieving more than a moderate reduction of the number of reconciling differences between a subsidiary”s own reporting and the numbers used by its parent.
More importantly, the choice of option (a) prevents the subsidiary from electing to apply all the other voluntary exemptions offered by IFRS 1, since the parent had already made the choices for the group at its date of adoption. Therefore, option (a) may not be appropriate for a subsidiary that prefers to use a different exemption (i.e. fair value as deemed cost) for property, plant and equipment due, for example, to a tax reporting advantage. Also, application of option (a) would be more difficult when a parent and its subsidiary have different financial years. In that case, IFRS 1 would seem to require the IFRS information for the subsidiary to be based on the parent”s date of transition to IFRSs, which may not even coincide with an interim reporting date of the subsidiary; the same applies to any joint venture or associate.
A subsidiary may become a first-time adopter later than its parent, because it previously prepared a reporting package under IFRSs for consolidation purposes but did not present a full set of financial statements under IFRSs. The above election may be ‘relevant not only when a subsidiary”s reporting package complies fully with the recognition and measurement requirements of IFRSs, but also when it is adjusted centrally for matters such as review of events after the reporting period and central allocation of pension costs. [IFRS 1.IG31]. Adjustments made centrally to an unpublished reporting package are not considered to be corrections of errors for the purposes of the disclosure requirements in IFRS 1. However, a subsidiary is not permitted to ignore misstatements that are immaterial to the consolidated financial statements of its parent but material to its own financial statements.
If a subsidiary was acquired after the parent”s date of transition to IFRSs then it cannot apply option (a) because there are no carrying amounts included in the parent”s consolidated financial statements, based on the parent”s date of transition. Therefore, the subsidiary is unable to use the values recognised in the group accounts when it was acquired.
The exemption is also available to associates and joint ventures. This means that in many cases an associate or joint venture that wants to apply option (a) will need to choose which shareholder it considers its ‘parent for IFRS 1 purposes and determine the IFRS carrying amount of its assets and liabilities by reference to that parent”s date of transition to IFRSs.
Parent becomes a first-time adopter later than its subsidiary
If an entity becomes a first-time adopter later than its subsidiary the entity should in its consolidated financial statements, measure the subsidiary”s assets and liabilities at the carrying amounts that are in the subsidiary”s financial statements, after adjusting for consolidation and for the effects of the business combination in which the entity acquired the subsidiary. The same applies for associates or joint venture, substituting equity accounting adjustments. [IFRS 1 Appendix D17].
Unlike other first-time adoption exemptions, this exemption does not offer a choice between different accounting alternatives. In fact, while a subsidiary that adopts IFRS later than its parent can choose to prepare its first IFRS financial statements by reference to its own date of transition to IFRSs or that of its parent, the parent itself must use the IFRS measurements already used in the subsidiary”s financial statements, adjusted as appropriate for consolidation procedures and the effects of the business combination in which it acquired the subsidiary. [IFRS 1.BC63]. This exemption does not preclude the parent from adjusting the subsidiary”s assets and liabilities for a different accounting policy, e.g. cost or revaluation for accounting for property, plant and equipment. The exemption, however, limits the choice of exemptions (e.g. the deemed cost exemption) with respect to the accounts of the subsidiary in the transition date consolidated accounts.
The following example, which is based on the guidance on implementation of IFRS 1, illustrates how an entity should apply these requirements.

The Norton Boys’ Tennis Club is a small, local club. The club is run for young people aged between 11 and 18. Although the club has been successful in the regional junior leagues, it is facing financial problems. The rent charged on the clubhouse and on the ground is set to rise by 20 per cent next year and it is felt that increasing subscription charges would only lead to a decline in the number of people playing.

A kitchen fitter works a 45-week year and for 36 hours per week. He estimates that his overheads for the year will be £9,000.
When billing customers, the fitter may wish to include a fraction of his overall overheads into the cost of each ‘job’ he performs for customers and he does this on the basis of the time of each job completed. This means that jobs that take longer will incur a higher proportion of overheads. For example, for a job that takes 25 hours he would want to include the following amount of overheads into the cost of the job:
Hours worked in one year = 45 × 36 = 1,620
Given that the job takes 18 hours, he would apportion (18/1,620) × £9,000 = £100 of overheads for this job on top of the direct materials and his direct labour. The selling price charged for this job would be based on both the direct costs of the job and this £100 share of the overheads.

Lamb Ltd is constructing a new college building for a local authority. The contact begins in 2014 and the price agreed for the college is £6 million. However, the college in unlikely to be completed until 2016 owing to extensive remedial work being necessary, and Lamb Ltd will incur the following costs:

The profit on the contract is estimated to be £1.2 million. This notional profit can be included as income if we make adjustments for the ongoing progress on the contract. Imagine that, in our example, by 2015 the value of the work certified had been £4 million and the cost of the work certified so far was £3.8 million. If the amount Lamb Ltd has received so far for work certified total £3.6 million, attributable profit would be calculated as follows:
Notional profit x (2/3) x (Cash received on account x value of work certified)
£200,000 x (2/3) x (£3 600 000/£4,000,000) = £120,000

At low levels of output, the firm incurs a loss as the revenue is not high enough to generate sufficient contribution to cover the fixed costs of the business. However, we see that as output rises from 6,000 units to 7,000, the firm moves from making losses to generating profits, which rise as output increases. We can infer, therefore, that the break-even level of output is somewhere between 6,000 and 7,000 units.

•economy model: 1,200 greenhouses
•deluxe model: 1,000 greenhouses.
Owing to a shortage of aluminium, the suppliers have stated that they can only deliver 6,000 m2to cover production during May 2015. This means that the management will have to alter their production plans, which will influence the level of sales of the various types of greenhouse. All greenhouses produced in each month are sold.

Each table is sold for £300. All of the administration costs are fixed, whereas it is estimated that 50 per cent of the selling and distribution costs are fixed. A supplier has offered Lucas the chance to buy in tables which would be made to Lucas’s specification but could be supplied to him for £200 each. This would give Lucas the chance to close down his production facilities and allow him to concentrate on the selling and marketing of the tables. Would you advise Lucas to accept the offer to buy in the tables or to continue production? Initially, the purchase of tables from the outside supplier might be look like a good idea. The average cost of a table is £212 (£106,000/500 tables). However, this decision requires us not to use the average total (or full) cost, but the marginal cost of each table. If the decision is to be made on financial grounds alone, we should be comparing the marginal cost of each table with the price offered by the outside supplier.

Alec Powell runs a small firm that produces ornate wine racks for customers. These are high-quality products and Powell has gradually built up a reputation for high-quality output. Each wine rack sells for £50. A Spanish buyer, Ramadal, wants to import the wine racks for sale in her domestic market. She believes that market conditions would dictate a lower selling price and has offered to buy 500 wine racks from Powell at a price of £35 each. Powell is unsure whether or not to accept this order as it is for a price significantly lower than his normal selling price. His data below are based on the planned production level of 10,000 wine racks per year:

Initially, the order looks, on financial grounds, an unwise one to accept. Each wine rack has a unit cost of £38, which implies that Powell would lose £3 on each wine rack sold to Ramadal. However, the £38 cost includes those costs that are not part of the marginal cost of producing a wine rack. Hence, we should look at the marginal cost of producing each wine rack.

The manager of a business has budgeted to produce 600,000 units of output in 2017. The standard quantities for this budgeted output level are as follows:
|
Materials (metal)
|
450,000 m2
|
|
Materials (fabric)
|
200,000 m2
|
|
Labour
|
50,000 hours
|
If actual output fell short of budgeted levels and was 40 per cent less than expected, at 360,000 units of output, we should ‘flex’ these standard quantities to match the actual output level. This will mean reducing the standard quantities by 40 per cent, which gives us the following:
|
Materials (metal)
|
270,000 m2

Standard materials cost = 4 kg at £3.00 per kg = £12 per unit

Actual output was 450 units. Although the total cost of £10,636 is lower than the standard cost of £11,000, the actual output was lower than the budgeted output, which means we will need to redraft the budgeted quantities in the light of the actual output. These are as follows:
Materials 450 units × 4 kg = 1,800 kg × £3 = £5,400
Labour 450 units × 2 hours = 900 hours × £5 = £4,500.

Chase runs a sandwich shop. She is compiling her end-of-year financial statements and wants your advice on a number of items:
(a)She has a high degree of customer loyalty and wants to include this within the value of the business overall. She proposes including a value for goodwill on her balance sheet – in order to represent the estimated selling price of the business, which would be higher than the original cost of the business.
(b)She thinks she can boost her profits if she delays some of her payments.
(c)She uses her own car to make some deliveries to business customers. At present she includes none of these costs as business expenditure as it is her private car.
Advise Chase on whether her accounting treatment is correct. Refer to any relevant accounting concepts as part of your recommendations.

The annual rent charge for a business is £6,000. This is paid in equal installments every three months (ie £1,500 a quarter). Payments are made on 30 June, 30 September, 31 December and 31 March. However, the payment due on 31 December 2014 was not paid until 12 January 2015. If the business has drawn up its income statement for the year ended 31 December 2014, the ledger account for Rent will appear as follows:

delivery van originally cost £18,000 and was to be depreciated at 25 per cent using the reducing balance method. The van was held by the business for two years before it was sold for £8,500. The profit or loss on the disposal would be calculated as follows: we need to ascertain the net book value of the asset. Therefore we need to calculate the depreciation for each of the two years:
•In year 1, the depreciation on the van would have been 25% × £18,000 = £4,500.
•In year 2, the depreciation would have been 25% × £13,500 (net book value at end of year 1) = £3,375.
•This means the net book value of the van at the moment of sale would have been £10,125.
•Therefore, the business made a loss on the disposal of this van of £1,625 (£8,500– £10,125).

Items not recognised under previous GAAP
Entity A acquired Entity B but did not capitalise B”s finance leases and internally generated customer lists under its previous GAAP.
Upon first-time adoption of IFRSs, Entity A recognises the finance leases in its opening IFRS statement of financial position using the amounts that Entity B would recognise in its opening IFRS statement of financial position. The resulting adjustment to the net assets at the date of transition is reflected in retained earnings; goodwill is not restated to reflect the net assets that would have been recognised at the date of acquisition. However, Entity A does not recognise the customer lists in its opening IFRS statement of financial position, because Entity B is not permitted to capitalise internally generated customer lists. Any value that might have been attributable to the customer lists would remain subsumed in goodwill in A”s opening IFRS statement of financial position.
Entity C acquired Entity D but did not recognise D”s brand name as a separate intangible asset under its previous GAAP.
Upon first-time adoption of IFRSs, Entity C will not recognise D”s brand name in its opening IFRS statement of financial position because Entity D would not have been permitted under IAS 38 to recognise it as an asset in its own individual statement of financial position. Again, any value that might have been attributable to the brand name would remain subsumed in goodwill in C”s opening IFRS statement of financial position.

Business combination example
Background
Entity A”s first IFRS financial statements are for a reporting period that ends on 31 December 2013 and include comparative information for 2012 only. On 1 July 2009, Entity A acquired 100 per cent of Entity B. Under its previous GAAP, Entity A:
(a) classified the business combination as an acquisition by Entity A;
(b) measured the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the following amounts under previous GAAP at 31 December 2011 (date of transition to IFRSs):
(i) identifiable assets less liabilities for which IFRSs require cost-based measurement at a date after the business combination: €200 (with a tax base of €150 and an applicable tax rate of 30 per cent);
(ii) pension liability (for which the present value of the defined benefit obligation measured under IAS 19 is €130 and the fair value of plan assets is €100): €nil (because Entity A used a pay-as-you-go cash method of accounting for pensions under its previous GAAP). The tax base of the pension liability is also €nil;
(iii) goodwill: €180;
(c) did not, at the date of acquisition, recognise deferred tax arising from temporary differences associated with the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
In its opening (consolidated) IFRS statement of financial position, Entity A:
(a) classifies the business combination as an acquisition by Entity A even if the business combination would have qualified under IFRS 3 as a reverse acquisition by Entity B; [IFRS 1.C4(a)];
(b) does not adjust the accumulated amortisation of goodwill. Entity A tests the goodwill for impairment under IAS 36 and recognises any resulting impairment loss, based on conditions that existed at the date of transition to IFRSs. If no impairment exists, the carrying amount of the goodwill remains at €180; [IFRS 1.C4(g)];
(c) for those net identifiable assets acquired for which IFRSs require cost-based measurement at a date after the business combination, treats their carrying amount under previous GAAP immediately after the business combination as their deemed cost at that date; [IFRS 1 C4(e)];
(d) does not restate the accumulated depreciation and amortisation of the net identifiable assets in (c) above, unless the depreciation methods and rates under previous GAAP result in amounts that differ materially from those required under IFRSs (for example, if they were adopted solely for tax purposes and do not reflect a reasonable estimate of the asset”s useful life under IFRSs). If no such restatement is made, the carrying amount of those assets in the opening IFRS statement of financial position equals their carrying amount under previous GAAP at the date of transition to IFRSs (€200); [IFRS 1 IG7];
(e) if there is any indication that identifiable assets are impaired, tests those assets for impairment, under IAS 36,based on conditions that existed at the date of transition to IFRSs (see 7.14);
(f) recognises the pension liability, and measures it, at the present value of the defined benefit obligation (€130) less the fair value of the plan assets (€100), giving a carrying amount of €30, with a corresponding debit of €30 to retained earnings. [IFRS 1.C4(d)]. However, if Entity B had already adopted IFRSs in an earlier period, Entity A would measure the pension liability at the same amount as in Entity B”s individual financial statements; [IFRS 1.D17, IG Example 9];
(g) recognises a net deferred tax liability of €6 (€20 at 30 per cent) arising from:
(i) the taxable temporary difference of €50 (€200 less €150) associated with the identifiable assets acquired and non-pension liabilities assumed; less
(ii) the deductible temporary difference of €30 (€30 less €nil) associated with the pension liability.
Entity A recognises the resulting increase in the deferred tax liability as a deduction from retained earnings. [IFRS 1 Appendix C4(k)]. If a taxable temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of the goodwill, Entity A does not recognise the resulting deferred tax liability. [IAS 12.15(a)].

Recognition and derecognition of acquired intangible assets
Entity A acquired an online retailer, Entity B, before its date of transition to IFRSs. Under its previous GAAP, Entity A recognised an intangible asset of ¥1,200 related to ‘deferred marketing costs, which does not meet the recognition criteria under IFRSs. Entity A also acquired customer relationships with a fair value of ¥900 that do meet the recognition criteria under IFRS 3, but which it did not recognise as an intangible asset under its previous GAAP.
Upon adoption of IFRSs, Entity A is required to derecognise the ‘deferred marketing costs intangible asset and increase the carrying amount of goodwill for a corresponding amount. Nevertheless, the customer relationship intangible asset that is subsumed in goodwill cannot be recognised as its carrying amount in the balance sheet of the acquiree, Entity B, would have been nil.

Impairment testing of goodwill on first-time adoption
Entity C acquired a business before its date of transition to IFRSs. The cost of acquisition was €530 and Entity C allocated the purchase price as follows:
|
€
|
|
Properties, at carry-over cost
|
450
|
|
Liabilities, at amortised cost
|
(180)
|
|
Goodwill
|
260
|
|
Purchase price
|
530
|
The goodwill under Entity C”s previous GAAP relates entirely to the properties that had a fair value at date of acquisition that was significantly in excess of their value on a carry-over cost basis. In Entity C”s opening IFRS statement of financial position the same assets, liabilities and goodwill are valued as follows:
|
€
|
|
Properties, at fair value
|
750
|
|
Liabilities, at amortised cost
|
(180)
|
|
Provisional IFRS goodwill (before impairment test)
|
260
|
|
Total carrying amount
|
830
|
Entity C used the option to measure the properties at fair value at its date of transition in its opening IFRS statement of financial position. However, IFRS 1 does not permit goodwill to be adjusted to reflect the extent to which the increase in fair value relates to other assets recognised at the time of the acquisition. The total carrying amount of the acquired net assets including goodwill of €830 may now exceed the recoverable amount. When Entity C tests the ‘provisional IFRS goodwill for impairment on first-time adoption of IFRSs, the recoverable amount of the business is determined to be €620. Accordingly, it will have to recognise an impairment of goodwill of €210 and disclose this impairment under IFRS 1.
In some cases the write-off will completely eliminate the goodwill and thereby any ‘double counting. However, in this particular case the remaining goodwill of €50 in truth represents goodwill that was internally generated between the date of acquisition and the date of transition to IFRSs.

Previous GAAP impairment of goodwill embedded in equity method investment
Scenario 1 – Impairment was recognised on the notional goodwill element embedded in the investment under previous GAAP
On 1 January 2007, Entity A acquired an investment in Entity B, which it accounts for using the equity method (the investment would qualify as an associate under IFRSs). The cost of investment was CU 1,500 compared to B”s identifiable net assets of CU 500; therefore, notional goodwill of CU 1,000 was included in the carrying value of the associate at that time. The previous GAAP required the entity to:
- Amortise the notional goodwill of the associate on a straight-line basis.
- Test the equity accounted investment for impairment at the investment level.
- Allocate and recognise the impairment loss (if any) against notional goodwill.
Goodwill impairments (including those on notional goodwill) are unable to be reversed and therefore affect future amortisation.
Therefore, under its previous GAAP, Entity A tested its investment in Entity B for impairment, and recognised an impairment loss of CU 500 in the year ended 31 December 2008. This reduced the notional goodwill to CU 500, which Entity A amortises over 10 years (CU 50 annually). By its date of transition to IFRS, 1 January 2012, notional goodwill had been amortised by 5 years × CU 50 (CU 250), reducing notional goodwill to CU 250. Net assets are unchanged since acquisition, leaving the investment with a carrying value of CU 750.
Entity A applies the exemption from retrospective restatement for past acquisitions of investments in associates. Therefore, at 1 January 2012, its transition date, Entity A also tests the investment for impairment in accordance with IAS 36. At 1 January 2012, the value of the investment in Entity B recovered, and is CU 1,500 based on its current listed share price. Under this scenario, the previous impairment to notional goodwill is not reversed, since the use of the business combination exemption as it applies to associates means that the goodwill determined under the earlier acquisition accounting together with the subsequent accounting up to the transition date is effectively grandfathered in a similar way in which a subsidiary”s goodwill would be, in accordance with paragraph C4(g) of IFRS 1. Therefore, the carrying value of the notional goodwill as determined under previous GAAP becomes the embedded notional goodwill at transition unless specifically required to be adjusted. [IFRS 1 Appendix C4(h)].
Scenario 2 – Impairment was recognised at the investment level under previous GAAP
Same as in Scenario 1, except that Entity A”s previous GAAP impairment test was performed at the investment level, using a test similar to that required under IAS 36. Because of applying this approach, when Entity A recognised an impairment loss of CU 500 in the year ended 31 December 2008, the carrying amount of the investment was CU 1,000, which remained the carrying amount at the date of transition, 1 January 2012. Similar to Scenario 1, at 1 January 2012, the value of the investment in Entity B has recovered, and is CU 1,500 based on its current listed share price.
Under this scenario, the previous impairment of notional goodwill, which is embedded in the full amount of the investment, is reversed. However, the impairment can only be reversed up to the pre-impairment equity accounted value that results from the application of the business combination exemption.

Earn-out clause in acquisition
Entity C acquired a business before its date of transition to IFRSs and agreed to make an initial payment to the seller together with further payments based on a multiple of future profits of the acquiree. The fair value of the earn-out, which is contingent on future profits, changes after the acquisition date but was never recognised under previous GAAP. Under Entity C”s previous GAAP any goodwill was written off against equity as incurred.
At its date of transition to IFRSs, Entity C will account for changes in the fair value of the earn-out since acquisition and recognise the effect in retained earnings. [IFRS 1 Appendix C4(i)(ii)].

Subsidiary not consolidated under previous GAAP
Background
Entity A”s date of transition to IFRSs is 1 January 2012. Under its previous GAAP, Entity A did not consolidate its 75 percent interest in Entity B, which it acquired in a business combination on 15 July 2009. On 1 January 2012:
(a) the cost of Entity A”s investment in Entity B is $180.
(b) under IFRSs, Entity B would measure its assets at $500 and its liabilities (including deferred tax under IAS 12) at $300. On this basis, Entity B”s net assets are $200 under IFRSs.
Application of requirements
Entity A consolidates Entity B. The consolidated statement of financial position at 1 January 2012 includes:
(a) Entity B”s assets at $500 and liabilities at $300;
(b) non-controlling interests of $50 (25 per cent of [$500 – $300]); and
(c) goodwill of $30 (cost of $180 less 75 per cent of [$500 – $300]). Entity A tests the goodwill for impairment under IAS 36 and recognises any resulting impairment loss, based on conditions that existed at the date of transition to IFRSs.

Restatement of intangible assets, deferred tax and non-controlling interests
Entity A”s first IFRS financial statements are for a period that ends on 31 December 2013 and include comparative information for 2012 only. On 1 July 2009, Entity A acquired 75% of subsidiary B. Under its previous GAAP, Entity A assigned an initial carrying amount of £200 to intangible assets that would not have qualified for recognition under IAS 38. The tax base of the intangible assets was £nil, giving rise to a deferred tax liability (at 30%) of £60. Entity A measured non-controlling interests as their share of the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill arising on the acquisition was capitalised as an asset in A”s consolidated financial statements.
On 1 January 2012 (the date of transition to IFRSs), the carrying amount of the intangible assets under previous GAAP was £160, and the carrying amount of the related deferred tax liability was £48 (30% of £160).
Under IFRS 1, Entity A reclassifies intangible assets that do not qualify for recognition as separate assets under IAS 38, together with the related deferred tax liability of £48 and non-controlling interests, as part of goodwill. The related non-controlling interests amount to £28 (25% of £112 (£160 minus £48)). Entity A makes the following adjustment in its opening IFRS statement of financial position:

Entity A tests the goodwill for impairment under IAS 36 and recognises any resulting impairment loss, based on conditions that existed at the date of transition to IFRSs.
This means that there is a difference in treatment depending on whether the first-time adopter is accounting for acquired intangible assets that it previously recognised in accordance with its previous GAAP or whether it had subsumed the intangible asset into goodwill. In the first case it must recognise a deferred tax liability and adjust opening reserves. By contrast in the second case it would have to decrease the carrying amount of goodwill and adjust deferred tax and minority interests as necessary, as discussed at above. The IASB discussed this issue in October 2005, but decided not to propose an amendment to address this inconsistency.

Fire
An audit team has worked for a number of months to create the city pre department audit program and audit document. They are now ready to begin scheduling the audit for each of the city save stations. Upon contacting Station 3, they speak to Chief Dawson, who is very excited about the audit process. She wants to make improvements in her station and hopes that the audit will help to give her direction. They also end that she is scheduled to attend a national fire conference on two of the three days for which the audit is scheduled. She will be there on the first day of the audit, but will be out of town the last two days of the audit. She would like to maintain the current schedule for the audit because rescheduling the audit would mean pushing it back two months.

safety
Acme Manufacturing has determined that all annual safety audits will be managed as attorney-client privileged. The auditor will be responsible for conducting the audit and completing the report to be submitted directly to the in-house legal counsel. The in-house legal counsel will then distribute the report to a select group of people within the organization. Shelly, the manager for the east region, would like to for-ward the audit report to all of her plants so that they can learn from what occurred in the audit and become better prepared for their audits, which are scheduled for later in the year.

Security
Dave is the new security manager for Acme Logistics. He is a recent graduate with a bachelor’s degree in security management and has only been with Acme for three months. Dave had not yet been hired when the annual security audit was conducted six months ago. He is appreciative of the effort the auditor has made to follow up through e-mail. However, Dave’s lack of experience has caused him difficulty in understanding how to approach correcting certain decencies. He contacts the audit-tor by phone and requests a site visit by the auditor so he can work with the auditor in person to gain a clear understanding of the issues and potential solutions.

Meaning of ‘available for immediate sale
1 Disposal of a headquarters building
An entity is committed to a plan to sell its headquarters building and has initiated actions to locate a buyer.
(a) The entity intends to transfer the building to a buyer after it vacates the building. The time necessary to vacate the building is usual and customary for sales of such assets. The criterion of being available for immediate sale would therefore be met at the plan commitment date.
(b) The entity will continue to use the building until construction of a new headquarters building is completed. The entity does not intend to transfer the existing building to a buyer until after construction of the new building is completed (and it vacates the existing building). The delay in the timing of the transfer of the existing building imposed by the entity (seller) demonstrates that the building is not available for immediate sale. The criterion would not be met until construction of the new building is completed, even if a firm purchase commitment for the future transfer of the existing building is obtained earlier.
2 Sale of a manufacturing facility
An entity is committed to a plan to sell a manufacturing facility and has initiated actions to locate a buyer. At the plan commitment date, there is a backlog of uncompleted customer orders.
(a) The entity intends to sell the manufacturing facility with its operations. Any uncompleted customer orders at the sale date will be transferred to the buyer. The transfer of uncompleted customer orders at the sale date will not affect the timing of the transfer of the facility. The criterion of being available for immediate sale would therefore be met at the plan commitment date.
(b) The entity intends to sell the manufacturing facility, but without its operations. The entity does not intend to transfer the facility to a buyer until after it ceases all operations of the facility and eliminates the backlog of uncompleted customer orders. The delay in the timing of the transfer of the facility imposed by the entity (seller) demonstrates that the facility is not available for immediate sale. The criterion would not be met until the operations of the facility cease, even if a firm purchase commitment for the future transfer of the facility were obtained earlier.
3 Land and buildings acquired through foreclosure
An entity acquires through foreclosure a property comprising land and buildings that it intends to sell.
(a) The entity does not intend to transfer the property to a buyer until after it completes renovations to increase the property”s sales value. The delay in the timing of the transfer of the property imposed by the entity (seller) demonstrates that the property is not available for immediate sale. The criterion of being available for immediate sale would therefore not be met until the renovations are completed.
(b) After the renovations are completed and the property is classified as held for sale but before a firm purchase commitment is obtained, the entity becomes aware of environmental damage requiring remediation. The entity still intends to sell the property. However, the entity does not have the ability to transfer the property to a buyer until after the remediation is completed. The delay in the timing of the transfer of the property imposed by others before a firm purchase commitment is obtained demonstrates that the property is not available for immediate sale The criterion would not continue to be met. The property would be reclassified as held and used in accordance with the requirements discussed.

Exceptions to the ‘one year rule Scenario illustrating (a) above
An entity in the power generating industry is committed to a plan to sell a disposal group that represents a significant portion of its regulated operations. The sale requires regulatory approval, which could extend the period required to complete the sale beyond one year. Actions necessary to obtain that approval cannot be initiated until after a buyer is known and a firm purchase commitment is obtained. However, a firm purchase commitment is highly probable within one year. In that situation, the conditions for an exception to the one year requirement would be met.
Scenario illustrating (b) above An entity is committed to a plan to sell a manufacturing facility in its present condition and classifies the facility as held for sale at that date. After a firm purchase commitment is obtained, the buyer”s inspection of the property identifies environmental damage not previously known to exist. The entity is required by the buyer to make good the damage, which will extend the period required to complete the sale beyond one year. However, the entity has initiated actions to make good the damage, and satisfactory rectification of the damage is highly probable. In that situation, the conditions for an exception to the one year requirement would be met.
Scenario illustrating (c) above An entity is committed to a plan to sell a non-current asset and classifies the asset as held for sale at that date.
(a) During the initial one year period, the market conditions that existed at the date the asset was classified initially as held for sale deteriorate and, as a result, the asset is not sold by the end of that period. During that period, the entity actively solicited but did not receive any reasonable offers to purchase the asset and, in response, reduced the price. The asset continues to be actively marketed at a price that is reasonable given the change in market conditions, and the criteria regarding availability for immediate sale which is highly probable are therefore met. In that situation, the conditions for an exception to the one year requirement would be met. At the end of the initial one year period, the asset would continue to be classified as held for sale.
(b) During the following one year period, market conditions deteriorate further, and the asset is not sold by the end of that period. The entity believes that the market conditions will improve and has not further reduced the price of the asset. The asset continues to be held for sale, but at a price in excess of its current fair value. In that situation, the absence of a price reduction demonstrates that the asset is not available for immediate sale. In addition, to meet the condition that a sale be highly probable also requires an asset to be marketed at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value. Therefore, the conditions for an exception to the one year requirement would not be met. The asset would be reclassified as held and used in accordance with the requirements discussed.

Measuring and presenting subsidiaries acquired with a view to sale and classified as held for sale Entity A acquires an entity H, which is a holding company with two subsidiaries, S1 and S2. S2 is acquired exclusively with a view to sale and meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale. Accordingly, S2 is also a discontinued operation .The fair value less costs to sell of S2 is €135. A accounts for S2 as follows:
- initially, A measures the identifiable liabilities of S2 at fair value, say at €40;
- initially, A measures the acquired assets as the fair value less costs to sell of S2 (€135) plus the fair value of the identifiable liabilities (€40), i.e. at €175;
- at the balance sheet date, A remeasures the disposal group at the lower of its cost and fair value less costs to sell, say at €130. The liabilities are remeasured in accordance with applicable IFRSs, say at €35. The total assets are measured at €130 + €35, i.e. at €165;
- at the balance sheet date, A presents the assets and liabilities separately from other assets and liabilities in its consolidated financial statements as illustrated in the statement of comprehensive income, A presents the total of the post-tax profit or loss of S2 and the post-tax gain or loss recognised on the subsequent remeasurement of S2, which equals the remeasurement of the disposal group from €135 to €130.
Further analysis of the assets and liabilities or of the change in value of the disposal group is not required.
The final sentence in the above example says no further analysis of the assets and liabilities is required. This must refer to there being no such disclosure requirement for financial statements. A detailed purchase price analysis and tracking of the acquired entity may still be needed, notwithstanding a partial relaxation of what is required to be disclosed by IFRS 5. This may be needed to be able to determine the split between gross assets and liabilities and how movements in the carrying amounts are reflected in profit or loss, or other comprehensive income.
IFRS 5 explains that disclosures in other IFRSs do not apply to non-current assets (or disposal groups) classified as held for sale or discontinued operations unless those IFRSs require:
- specific disclosures in respect of non-current assets (or disposal groups) classified as held for sale or discontinued operations; or
- disclosures about the measurement of assets and liabilities within a disposal group that are not within the scope of the measurement requirement of IFRS 5 and such disclosures are not already provided in the other notes to the financial statements.
The standard goes on to say that additional disclosures about non-current assets (or disposal groups) classified as held for sale or discontinued operations may be necessary to comply with the general requirements of IAS 1, in particular paragraphs 15 and 125 of that Standard.Those provisions deal with fair presentation and estimation uncertainty and are discussed respectively.

Allocation of impairment loss to the components of a disposal group [IFRS 5.IG10]

|

|
The entity recognises the loss of €1,100 (€16,000 – €14,900) immediately before classifying the disposal group as held for sale. The entity measures the fair value less costs to sell of the disposal group as €13,000. Because an entity measures a disposal group classified as held for sale at the lower of its carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell, the entity recognises an impairment loss of €1,900 (€14,900 – €13,000) when the group is initially classified as held for sale. The impairment loss is allocated to non-current assets to which the measurement requirements of the IFRS are applicable. Therefore, no impairment loss is allocated to inventory and investments in equity instruments. The loss is allocated to the other assets in the order of allocation described above.
The allocation can be illustrated as follows:
First, the impairment loss reduces any amount of goodwill. Then, the residual loss is allocated to other assets pro rata based on the carrying amounts of those assets.

First IFRS financial statements outside the annual report or statutory financial statements
Entity E prepared financial statements under its previous GAAP for the period ending 31 December 2011. In connection with its initial public offering, Entity E published an offering document that includes IFRS financial statements that contain an unreserved statement of compliance with IFRSs. The date of transition to IFRSs for the purposes of those financial statements, which cover the most recent three financial years, was 1 January 2009.
Entity E”s annual report (or statutory financial statements) are prepared under IFRSs for the first time for the period ending 31 December 2012.
The IFRS financial statements included in Entity E”s offering document were its first IFRS financial statements. Entity E should not apply IFRS 1 in its first annual financial statements (or statutory financial statements) prepared under IFRSs as it is not a first-time adopter. Although not required by IFRSs, Entity E may want to repeat information about its transition to IFRSs in its annual financial statements.
If, however, Entity E had included financial statements in its offering document that did not contain an unreserved statement of compliance with IFRSs then the annual financial statements for 2012 (or statutory financial statements) would need to be prepared in accordance with IFRS 1. If those financial statements only included comparative information for the year ended 31 December 2011 then Entity E”s date of transition would be 1 January 2011.

Repeated application of IFRS 1 when an entity does not apply IFRSs for one year
Entity D prepared IFRS financial statements for 2010 and 2011 that contained an explicit and unreserved statement of compliance with IFRSs. However, in 2012 Entity D did not make an unreserved statement of compliance with IFRSs.
Entity D may choose to apply IFRS as a first-time adopter or it may elect to restate its financial statements retrospectively as if it had never stopped producing IFRS financial statements.
If it elects to apply IFRS as a first-time adopter for the purposes of its 2013 financial statements, there is no requirement under IFRS 1 for Entity D to base its first IFRS financial statements in 2013 on the IFRS information that it produced before 2012. Therefore, Entity D will apply the IFRS 1 exemptions without regard to the elections it made in its first IFRS financial statements in 2010. In fact, Entity D is unable to apply certain IFRS 1 exemptions by reference to the date of transition that it used in its 2010 financial statements (see 1.3.2.A below).

Infosys Technologies Limited (2009)
2 Notes to the consolidated financial statements [extract]
2.1 Transition to IFRS reporting [extract]
The financial statements of Infosys Technologies Limited and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with IFRS. Infosys Technologies Limited and its subsidiaries adopted all IFRS standards and the adoption was carried out in accordance to IFRS 1, using April 1, 2007 as the transition date. The transition was carried out from Indian GAAP, which was considered as the Previous GAAP. The effect of adopting IFRS has been summarized in the reconciliations provided. The transition to IFRS reporting has resulted in changes in the reported financial statements, notes thereto and accounting principles compared to what had been presented previously. Until the adoption of IFRS, the financial statements included in the Annual Reports on Form 20-F and Quarterly Reports on Form 6-K were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) under the historical cost convention on the accrual basis. However, for the purposes of the transition, such transition was carried out from Indian GAAP, which has been considered as the Previous GAAP. The reconciliation statements provided in Note 2.2 describe the differences between IFRS and Indian GAAP. In addition, reconciliations from U.S. GAAP to Indian GAAP have been provided in Note 2.3 for the periods presented.
The Group”s financial statements for the year ending March 31, 2009 are the first annual financial statements to comply with IFRS.
2.3 The following voluntary reconciliations provide a quantification of reconciliation items between U.S. GAAP and Previous GAAP: [extract]
- equity as at April 1, 2007 (Note 2.3.1)
- equity as at March 31, 2008 (Note 2.3.2)
- equity as at March 31, 2009 (Note 2.3.3)
- net income for the year ended March 31, 2008 (Note 2.3.4)
- net income for the year ended March 31, 2009 (Note 2.3.5)

Application of IFRS 1 to estimates
Entity A”s first IFRS financial statements have a reporting date of 31 December 2013 and include comparative information for one year. In its previous GAAP financial statements for 31 December 2012, Entity A accounted for its pension plan on a cash basis. However, under IAS 19 the plan is classified as a defined benefit plan and actuarial estimates are required.
A will need to make estimates under IFRSs at the relevant date that reflect conditions that existed at the relevant date. This means, for example, Entity A”s:
(i) discount rates at 1 January 2012 (date of transition) and 31 December 2012 for the pension plan and for provisions should reflect market conditions at those dates; and
(ii) actuarial assumptions at 1 January 2012 and 31 December 2012 about future employee turnover rates should not reflect conditions that arose after those dates – such as a significant increase in estimated employee turnover rates as a result of a curtailment of the pension plan in 2013.
Entity B accounted for inventories at the lower of cost and net realisable value under its previous GAAP. Entity B”s accounting policy is consistent with the requirements of IAS 2 – Inventories. Under previous GAAP, the goods were accounted for at a price of £1.25/kg. Due to changes in market circumstances, Entity B ultimately could only sell the goods in the following period for £0.90/kg.
Assuming that Entity B”s estimate of the net realisable value was not in error, it will account for the goods at £1.25/kg upon transition to IFRSs and will make no adjustments because the estimate was not in error and its accounting policy was consistent with IFRSs. The effect of selling the goods for £0.90/kg will be reflected in the period in which they were sold.
Entity C”s first IFRS financial statements have a reporting date of 31 December 2013 and include comparative information for one year. In its previous GAAP financial statements for 31 December 2011, Entity C accounted for a provision of $150,000 in connection with a court case. Entity C”s accounting policy was consistent with the requirements of IAS 37 – Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, except for the fact that Entity C did not discount the provision for the time value of money. The discounted value of the provision at 31 December 2011 would have been $135,000. The case was settled for $190,000 during 2012.
In its opening IFRS statement of financial position Entity C will measure the provision at $135,000. IFRS 1 does not permit an entity to adjust the estimate itself, unless it was in error, but does require an adjustment to reflect the difference in accounting policies. The unwinding of the discount and the adjustment due to the under-provision will be included in the comparative statement of comprehensive income for 2012.
Entity D”s first IFRS financial statements have a reporting date of 31 December 2013 and include comparative information for one year. In its previous GAAP financial statements for 31 December 2012, Entity D did not recognise a provision for a court case arising from events that occurred in September 2012. When the court case was concluded on 30 June 2013, Entity D was required to pay €1,000,000 and paid this on 10 July 2013.
In preparing its comparative statement of financial position at 31 December 2012, the treatment of the court case at that date depends on the reason why Entity D did not recognise a provision under its previous GAAP at that date.
Scenario 1 – Previous GAAP was consistent with IAS 37. At the date of preparing its 2012 financial statements, Entity D concluded that the recognition criteria were not met. In this case, Entity D”s assumptions under IFRSs are to be consistent with its assumptions under previous GAAP. Therefore, Entity D does not recognise a provision at 31 December 2012 and the effect of settling the court case is reflected in the 2013 statement of comprehensive income.
Scenario 2 – Previous GAAP was not consistent with IAS 37. Therefore, Entity D develops estimates under IAS 37, which requires that an entity determines whether an obligation exists at the end of the reporting period by taking account of all available evidence, including any additional evidence provided by events after the end of the reporting period. Similarly, under IAS 10, the resolution of a court case after the end of the reporting period is an adjusting event if it confirms that the entity had a present obligation at that date. In this instance, the resolution of the court case confirms that Entity D had a liability in September 2012 (when the events occurred that gave rise to the court case). Therefore, Entity D recognises a provision at 31 December 2012. Entity D measures that provision by discounting the €1,000,000 paid on 10 July 2013 to its present value, using a discount rate that complies with IAS 37 and reflects market conditions at 31 December 2012.

Pre-transition cash flow hedges
Case 1: All hedge accounting conditions met from date of transition and thereafter
In 2004 Entity A borrowed €10m from a bank. The terms of the loan provide that a coupon of 3 month LIBOR plus 2% is payable quarterly in arrears and the principal is repayable in 2019. In 2007, Entity A decided to ‘fix its coupon payments for the remainder of the term of the loan by entering into a twelve-year pay-fixed, receive-floating interest rate swap. The swap has a notional amount of €10m and the floating leg resets quarterly based on 3 month LIBOR.
In Entity A”s final financial statements prepared under its previous GAAP, the swap was clearly identified as a hedging instrument in a hedge of the loan and was accounted for as such. The fair value of the swap was not recognised in Entity A”s balance sheet and the periodic interest settlements were accrued and recognised as an adjustment to the loan interest expense. On 1 January 2012, Entity A”s date of transition to IFRSs, the loan and the swap were still in place and the swap had a positive fair value of €1m and a €nil carrying amount. In addition, Entity A met all the conditions in IAS 39 to permit the use of hedge accounting for this arrangement throughout 2012 and 2013.
In its opening IFRS statement of financial position Entity A should:
- recognise the interest rate swap as an asset at its fair value of €1m; and
- credit €1m to a separate component of equity, to be reclassified to profit or loss as the hedged transactions (future interest payments on the loan) affect profit or loss.
In addition, hedge accounting would be applied throughout 2012 and 2013.
Case 2: Hedge terminated prior to date of transition
The facts are as in Case 1 except that in April 2011 Entity A decided to terminate the hedge and the interest rate swap was settled for its then fair value of €1.5m. Under its previous GAAP, Entity A”s stated accounting policy in respect of terminated hedges was to defer any realised gain or loss on terminated hedging instruments where the hedged exposure remained. These gains or losses would be recognised in profit or loss at the same time as gains or losses on the hedged exposure. At the end of December 2011, A”s balance sheet included a liability (unamortised gain) of €1.4m.
IFRS 1 does not explicitly address hedges terminated prior to the date of transition but we see no reason why these relationships should not be reflected in an entity”s opening IFRS statement of financial position in the same way as other cash flow hedges that are reflected in an entity”s closing balance sheet under its previous GAAP. Accordingly, in its opening IFRS statement of financial position Entity A should:
- remove the deferred gain of €1.4m from the balance sheet; and
- credit €1.4m to a separate component of equity, to be reclassified to profit or loss as the hedged transactions (future interest payments on the loan) affect profit or loss.

Existing fair value hedges
Case 1: All hedge accounting conditions met from date of transition and thereafter (1)
On 15 November 2011, Entity B entered into a forward contract to sell 50,000 barrels of crude oil to hedge all changes in the fair value of certain inventory. Entity B will apply IAS 39 from 1 January 2012, its date of transition to IFRSs. The historical cost of the forward contract is $nil and at the date of transition the forward had a negative fair value of $50.
In Entity B”s final financial statements prepared under its previous GAAP, the forward was clearly identified as a hedging instrument in a hedge of the inventory and was accounted for as such. The contract was recognised in the balance sheet as a liability at its fair value and the resulting loss was deferred in the balance sheet as an asset. In the period between 15 November 2011 and 1 January 2012 the fair value of the inventory increased by $47. In addition, Entity B met all the conditions in IAS 39 to permit the use of hedge accounting for this arrangement throughout 2012 until the forward expired.
In its opening IFRS statement of financial position Entity B should:
- continue to recognise the forward contract as a liability at its fair value of $50;
- derecognise the $50 deferred loss on the forward contract;
- recognise the crude oil inventory at its historical cost plus $47 (the lower of the change in fair value of the crude oil inventory, $47, and that of the forward contract, $50); and
- record the net adjustment of $3 in retained earnings.
In addition, hedge accounting would be applied throughout 2012 until the forward expired.
Case 2: All hedge accounting conditions met from date of transition and thereafter (2)
In 2004 Entity C borrowed €10m from a bank. The terms of the loan provide that a coupon of 8% is payable quarterly in arrears and the principal is repayable in 2019. In 2007, Entity C decided to alter its coupon payments for the remainder of the term of the loan by entering into a twelve-year pay-floating, receive-fixed interest rate swap. The swap has a notional amount of €10m and the floating leg resets quarterly based on 3 month LIBOR.
In Entity C”s final financial statements prepared under its previous GAAP, the swap was clearly identified as a hedging instrument in a hedge of the loan and accounted for as such. The fair value of the swap was not recognised in Entity C”s balance sheet and the periodic interest settlements on the swap were accrued and recognised as an adjustment to the loan interest expense.
On 1 January 2012, Entity C”s date of transition to IFRSs, the loan and the swap were still in place and the swap had a negative fair value of €1m and a €nil carrying amount. The cumulative change in the fair value of the loan attributable to changes in 3 month LIBOR was €1.1m, although this change was not recognised in Entity C”s balance sheet because the loan was accounted for at cost. In addition, Entity C met all the conditions in IAS 39 to permit the use of hedge accounting for this arrangement throughout 2012 and 2013.
In its opening IFRS statement of financial position Entity C should:
- recognise the interest rate swap as a liability at its fair value of €1m; and
- reduce the carrying amount of the loan by €1m (the lower of the change in its fair value attributable to the hedged risk, €1.1m, and that of the interest rate swap, $1m) to €9m.
In addition, hedge accounting would be applied throughout 2012 and 2013.
Case 3: Hedge terminated prior to date of transition
The facts are as in Case 2 above except that in April 2011 Entity C decided to terminate the fair value hedge and the interest rate swap was settled for its then negative fair value of €1.5m. Under its previous GAAP, Entity C”s stated accounting policy in respect of terminated hedges was to defer any gain or loss on the hedging instrument as a liability or an asset where the hedged exposure remained and this gain or loss was recognised in profit or loss at the same time as the hedged exposure. At the end of December 2011 the unamortised loss recognised as an asset in Entity C”s balance sheet was €1.4m. The cumulative change through April 2011 in the fair value of the loan attributable to changes in 3 month LIBOR that had not been recognised was €1.6m.
In its opening IFRS statement of financial position Entity C should:
- remove the deferred loss of €1.4m from the balance sheet; and
- reduce the carrying amount of the loan by €1.4m (the lower of the change in its fair value attributable to the hedged risk, €1.6m, and the change in value of the interest rate swap that was deferred in the balance sheet, €1.4m).
The €1.4m adjustment to the loan would be amortised to profit or loss over its remaining term.
Case 4: Documentation completed after the date of transition
The facts are as in Case 2 above except that, at the date of transition, Entity C had not prepared documentation that would allow it to apply hedge accounting under IAS 39. Hedge documentation was subsequently prepared as a result of which the hedge qualified for hedge accounting with effect from the beginning of July 2012 and through 2013.
As in Case 2, in its opening IFRS statement of financial position Entity C should:
- recognise the interest rate swap as a liability at its fair value of €1m; and
- reduce the carrying amount of the loan by €1m (the lower of the change in its fair value attributable to the hedged risk, €1.1m, and that of the interest rate swap, €1m), because the loan was clearly identified as a hedged item.
For the period from January 2012 to June 2012, hedge accounting would not be available. Accordingly, the interest rate swap would be remeasured to its fair value and any gain or loss would be recognised in profit or loss with no offset from remeasuring the loan. With effect from July 2012 hedge accounting would be applied prospectively.

Government loan with below-market interest rate
A government provides loans at a below-market rate of interest to fund the purchase of manufacturing equipment.
Entity S”s date of transition to IFRSs is 1 January 2012.
In 2010 Entity S received a loan of CU100,000 at a below-market rate of interest from the government. Under previous GAAP, Entity S accounted for the loan as equity and the carrying amount was CU100,000 at the date of transition. The amount repayable at 1 January 2015 will be CU103,030. No other payment is required under the terms of the loan and there are no future performance conditions attached to it. The information needed to measure the fair value of the loan was not obtained at the time it was initially accounted for.
The loan meets the definition of a financial liability in accordance with IAS 32. Entity S therefore reclassifies it as a liability. It also uses the previous GAAP carrying amount of the loan at the date of transition as the carrying amount of the loan in the opening IFRS statement of financial position, reclassifying it from equity to liability. It calculates the effective interest rate starting 1 January 2012 at 10%. The opening balance of CU100,000 will accrete to CU103,030 at 31 December 2014 and interest of CU1,000, CU1,010 and CU1,020 will be charged as an interest expense in each of the three years ended 31 December 2012, 2013 and 2014.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements [extract]
Note 26 First-Time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards
Key First-Time Adoption Exemptions Applied [extract]
IFRS 1, “First-Time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards,” allows first-time adopters certain exemptions from retrospective application of certain IFRSs.
The Company applied the following exemptions: [extract]
IFRS 3, “Business Combinations,” was not applied to acquisitions of subsidiaries or interests in joint ventures that occurred before January 1, 2010.
i) IFRS 3 Adjustments – Business Combinations [extract]
Given that the Company elected to apply the IFRS 1 exemption which permits no adjustments to amounts recorded for acquisitions that occurred prior to January 1, 2010, no retrospective adjustments were required. The Company acquired the remaining interest in the Lloydminster Upgrader from the Government of Alberta in 1995 and is required to make payments to Natural Resources Canada and Alberta Department of Energy from 1995 to 2014 based on average differentials between heavy crude oil feedstock and the price of synthetic crude oil sales. Under IFRS, the Company is required to recognize this contingent consideration at its fair value as part of the acquisition and record a corresponding liability. Under Canadian GAAP, any contingent consideration was not required to be recognized unless amounts were resolved and payable on the date of acquisition. On transition to IFRS, Husky recognized a liability of $85 million, based on the fair value of remaining upside interest payments, with an adjustment to opening retained earnings. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company recognized pre-tax accretion of $9 million in finance expenses under IFRS. Changes in forecast differentials used to determine the fair value of the remaining upside interest payments resulted in the recognition of a pre-tax gain of $41 million for the year ended December 31, 2010.transition when this would require undue use of hindsight.

Note 34 Transition to IFRS [extract]
Description Of Significant Measurement And Presentation Differences Between Canadian GAAP And IFRS [extract]
(d) Business Combinations: Elective Exemption [extract]
As permitted under IFRS transition rules, the Bank has applied IFRS 3, Business Combinations (IFRS 3) to all business combinations occurring on or after January 1, 2007. Certain differences exist between IFRS and Canadian GAAP in the determination of the purchase price allocation. The most significant differences are described below.
Under Canadian GAAP, an investment in a subsidiary which is acquired through two or more purchases is commonly referred to as a “step acquisition”. Each transaction is accounted for as a step-by-step purchase, and is recognized at the fair value of the net assets acquired at each step. Under IFRS, the accounting for step acquisitions differs depending on whether a change in control occurs. If a change in control occurs, the acquirer remeasures any previously held equity investment at its acquisition-date fair value and recognizes any resulting gain or loss in the Consolidated Statement of Income. Any transactions subsequent to obtaining control are recognized as equity transactions.
Under Canadian GAAP, shares issued as consideration are measured at the market price over a reasonable time period before and after the date the terms of the business combination are agreed upon and announced. Under IFRS, shares issued as consideration are measured at their market price on the closing date of the acquisition.
Under Canadian GAAP, an acquirer”s restructuring costs to exit an activity or to involuntarily terminate or relocate employees are recognized as a liability in the purchase price allocation. Under IFRS, these costs are generally expensed as incurred and not included in the purchase price allocation.
Under Canadian GAAP, costs directly related to the acquisition (i.e. finders fees, advisory, legal, etc.) are included in the purchase price allocation, while under IFRS these costs are expensed as incurred and not included in the purchase price allocation.
Under Canadian GAAP, contingent consideration is recorded when the amount can be reasonably estimated at the date of acquisition and the outcome is determinable beyond reasonable doubt, while under IFRS contingent consideration is recognized immediately in the purchase price equation at fair value and marked to market as events and circumstances change in the Consolidated Statement of Income.
The impact of the differences between Canadian GAAP and IFRS to the Bank”s IFRS opening Consolidated Balance Sheet is disclosed in the table below.

Acquisition of assets
Entity A acquired a holding company that held a single asset at the time of acquisition. That holding company had no employees and the asset itself was not in use at the date of acquisition. Entity A accounted for the transaction under its previous GAAP using the purchase method, which resulted in goodwill. Can Entity A apply the business combinations exemption to the acquisition of this asset?
If Entity A concludes that the asset is not a business as defined in IFRS 3, it will not be able to apply the business combinations exemption. Instead, Entity A should account for such transaction as an asset acquisition.

Finance lease not capitalised under previous GAAP
Background
Entity A”s date of transition to IFRSs is 1 January 2012. Entity A acquired Entity B on 15 January 2008 and did not capitalise Entity B”s finance leases. If Entity B prepared separate financial statements under IFRSs, it would recognise finance lease obligations of £300 and leased assets of £250 at 1 January 2012.
Application of requirements
In its consolidated opening IFRS statement of financial position, Entity A recognises finance lease obligations of £300, leased assets of £250 and charges £50 to retained earnings.

Restructuring provision
Background
Entity C”s first IFRS financial statements are for a period that ends on 31 December 2013 and include comparative information for 2012 only. It chooses not to restate previous business combinations under IFRSs. On 1 July 2011, Entity C acquired 100 per cent of Entity D. Under its previous GAAP, Entity C recognised an (undiscounted) restructuring provision of ¥100 that would not have qualified as an identifiable liability under IFRSs. The recognition of this restructuring provision increased goodwill by ¥100. At 31 December 2011 (date of transition to IFRSs), Entity C:
(a) had paid restructuring costs of ¥60; and
(b) estimated that it would pay further costs of ¥40 in 2012 and that the effects of discounting were immaterial. At 31 December 2011, those further costs did not qualify for recognition as a provision under IAS 37.
Application of requirements
In its opening IFRS statement of financial position, Entity C:
(a) does not recognise a restructuring provision.
(b) does not adjust the amount assigned to goodwill. However, Entity C tests the goodwill for impairment under IAS 36 – Impairment of Assets – and recognises any resulting impairment loss.
(c) as a result of (a) and (b), reports retained earnings in its opening IFRS statement of financial position that are higher by ¥40 (before income taxes and before recognising any impairment loss) than in the balance sheet at the same date under previous GAAP.
Aug 29, 2021 | Uncategorized
Provisionally determined fair values
Entity B acquired Entity C in August 2011 and made a provisional assessment of Entity C”s identifiable net assets in its 31 December 2011 consolidated financial statements under its previous GAAP. In its 31 December 2012 consolidated financial statements – its last financial statements under previous GAAP – Entity B completed the initial accounting for the business combination and adjusted the provisional values of the identifiable net assets and the corresponding goodwill. Upon first-time adoption of IFRSs, Entity B elects not to restate past business combinations.
In preparing its opening IFRS statement of financial position, Entity B should use the adjusted carrying amounts of the identifiable net assets as determined in its 2012 financial statements rather than the provisional carrying amounts of the identifiable net assets and goodwill at 31 December 2011.
Aug 29, 2021 | Uncategorized
Items measured on a cost basis
Entity A applies the business combination exemption under IFRS 1. In a business combination Entity A acquired property, plant and equipment, inventory and accounts receivable. Under its previous GAAP, Entity A initially measured these assets at cost (i.e. their fair value at the date of acquisition).
Upon adoption of IFRSs, Entity A determines that its accounting policy for these assets under its previous GAAP complied with the requirements of IFRSs. Therefore, property, plant and equipment, inventory and accounts receivable are not adjusted but recognised in the opening IFRS statement of financial position at the carrying amount under the previous GAAP.
Aug 29, 2021 | Uncategorized
Items not measured at original cost
Entity A acquired in a business combination a trading portfolio of equity securities and a number of investment properties. Under its previous GAAP, Entity A initially measured these assets at cost (i.e. their fair value at the date of acquisition).
Upon adoption of IFRSs, Entity A measures the trading portfolio of equity securities and the investment properties (under the IAS 40 – Investment Property – fair value model) at fair value in its opening IFRS statement of financial position. The resulting adjustment to these assets at the date of transition is reflected in retained earnings.

This exercise will test your ability to properly account for situations involving contingent liabilities.
As the accountant for the Blow-Dry Manufacturing Company you are to analyze the following situations in preparing the balance sheet at December 31, 2014:
- The Blow-Dry Manufacturing Company grants a six-month warranty on each of the hair dryers it sells. Based on past experience, it is estimated that 3% of all hair dryers sold are returned; it costs the company an average of $4.40 to satisfy the warranty obligation for each unit returned. The company sold 77,000 hair dryers in the last half of 2014 and has spent $3,000 for warranty work on those units.
- The Speedy-Dry Manufacturing Company has filed a lawsuit for $100,000 in damages against the Blow-Dry Manufacturing Company for infringement of patent rights. Legal counsel for Blow-Dry states that it is reasonably possible, but not likely, that there will be an unfavorable outcome of the case because the Blow-Dry Company has good evidence to support its position.
- The Internal Revenue Service is currently auditing a tax return of the Blow-Dry Company for a prior year. It is remotely possible that the IRS may disallow a deduction of $4,200 on the tax return.
- The Blow-Dry Company is a defendant in a lawsuit. A former executive filed suit on November 7, 2014 based on his claim that the Blow-Dry Company did not comply with a written promise to pay him a $50,000 bonus for 2013. The company did not make the bonus payment because the executive resigned the last week of December 2013. Legal counsel for the company states that the written agreement will probably be held to apply even though the executive resigned. The suit is expected to be settled early in 2015.
Instructions
Explain how to account for each of the situations. Should a liability be included in the body of the balance sheet at December 31, 2014 or should there only be disclosure in the notes accompanying the financial statements or should the item not be recorded or disclosed? Justify your answer.

This exercise will provide an example of how to account for the sale of a product that includes a warranty.
Colleen Mahla Company sells portable tables to be used for massage therapy. Each table has a built-in stereo system and carries a one-year warranty contract that requires the company to replace defective parts and to provide the necessary repair labor. During 2014, the company sold 300 tables at a unit price of $2,500. Sales occurred evenly throughout the year. The one-year warranty costs to repair defective tables are estimated to average $110 for parts and $130 for labor per unit. Approximately 10% of the tables sold are estimated to require warranty service. During 2014, the company”s first year of operations, 11 units were submitted for warranty work at a total cost of $2,750.
Instructions
(a) Record the adjusting journal entry at the end of 2014 to accrue the estimated warranty costs on the 2014 sales.
(b) Prepare the entry to record repair costs incurred in 2014 to honor warranty contracts on 2014 sales.
(c) Explain how all of the relevant amounts would be reflected on the financial statements prepared at the end of 2014.
(d) Why are warranty costs accrued in the period of sale? Explain.

This exercise reviews the characteristics and accounting aspects of the two types of leases.
A lease is a contractual arrangement between the lessor (owner of the property) and a lessee (renter of the property) that grants the lessee the right to use specific property for a period of time in return for cash payments. Some lease agreements are in substance installment purchases of assets by the lessees (and, thus, installment sales of the assets by the lessors), although their legal form is that of a lease.
The specific provisions of a lease contract may vary from other similar lease agreements. Generally accepted accounting principles require that each lease be properly classified as either a capital lease or an operating lease.
Instructions
Indicate whether each item below is most likely related to an operating lease or to a capital lease by using the appropriate code letters.
O = Operating Lease
C = Capital Lease
1. The lease is merely a short-term rental agreement for use of property.
2. The owner retains ownership of the leased property after the term of the lease and the property has substantial economic value after the lease has expired.
3.The lease is essentially an installment purchase of property by the lessee.
4. Rent expense appears on the lessee”s financial statements in the periods in which it is incurred.
5. Interest expense is reported on the books of the lessee.
6. Rental payments are considered to be an installment of the asset”s purchase price on the lessee”s books.
7. Depreciation expense for the leased asset is recognized on the lessee”s books.
8. Depreciation expense for the leased asset is not recognized on the lessee”s books.
9. The lease contract is recorded by a debit to an asset account and a credit to a liability account on the lessee”s books.
10. The leased asset appears on the books of the lessee.
11. The lessee uses up the total serviceability of the leased asset during the term of the lease.
12. The lessee has the right to buy the asset at the end of the lease term for a nominal purchase price.
13. The leased asset does not appear on the books of the lessee.
14. Present value of the minimum lease payments at the beginning of the lease term exceeds 90% of the fair value of the leased property at the inception of the lease.
15. End-of-the-period adjustments are made on the lessee”s books for any accrued rent not yet paid or any rent paid in advance.
16. The lease is considered to be a purchase of the leased asset by the lessee and a sale of the leased asset by the lessor.
17. The lease transfers ownership of the property to the lessee by the end of the lease term.

Lon Timur is an accounting major at a midwestern state university located approximately 60 miles from a major city. Many of the students attending the university are from the metropolitan area and visit their homes regularly on the weekends. Lon, an entrepreneur at heart, realizes that few good commuting alternatives are available for students doing weekend travel. He believes that a weekend commuting service could be organized and run profitably from several suburban and downtown shopping mall locations. Lon has gathered the following investment information.
1.Five used vans would cost a total of $75,000 to purchase and would have a 3-year useful life with negligible salvage value. Lon plans to use straight-line depreciation.
2.Ten drivers would have to be employed at a total annual payroll expense of $48,000.
3.Other annual out-of-pocket expenses associated with running the commuter service would include Gasoline $16,000, Maintenance $3,300, Repairs $4,000, Insurance $4,200, and Advertising $2,500.
4.Lon has visited several financial institutions to discuss funding. The best interest rate he has been able to negotiate is 15%. Use this rate for cost of capital.
5.Lon expects each van to make ten round trips weekly and carry an average of six students each trip. The service is expected to operate 30 weeks each year, and each student will be charged $12.00 for a round-trip ticket.
Instructions
(a)Determine the annual (1) net income and (2) net annual cash flows for the commuter service.
(b)Compute (1) the cash payback period and (2) the annual rate of return. (Round to two decimals.)
(c)Compute the net present value of the commuter service. (Round to the nearest dollar.)
(d)What should Lon conclude from these computations?

Goltra Clinic is considering investing in new heart-monitoring equipment. It has two options: Option A would have an initial lower cost but would require a significant expenditure for rebuilding after 4 years. Option B would require no rebuilding expenditure, but its maintenance costs would be higher. Since the Option B machine is of initial higher quality, it is expected to have a salvage value at the end of its useful life. The following estimates were made of the cash flows. The company”s cost of capital is 8%.

Recently, Mike Cichanowski, owner and CEO ofCurrent Designs, received a phone call from the president of a brewing company. He was calling to inquire about the possibility of Current Designs producing “floating coolers” for a promotion his company was planning. These coolers resemble a kayak but are about one-third the size. They are used to float food and beverages while paddling down the river on a weekend leisure trip. The company would be interested in purchasing 100 coolers for the upcoming summer. It is willing to pay $250 per cooler. The brewing company would pick up the coolers upon completion of the order.
Mike met with Diane Buswell, controller, to identify how much it would cost Current Designs to produce the coolers. After careful analysis, the following costs were identified.
|
Direct materials
|
$80/unit
|
|
Direct labor
|
$60/unit
|
|
Variable overhead
|
$20/unit
|
|
Fixed overhead
|
$1,000
|
Current Designs would be able to modify an existing mold to produce the coolers. The cost of these modifications would be approximately $2,000.
Instructions
(a)Prepare an incremental analysis to determine whether Current Designs should accept this special order to produce the coolers.
(b)Discuss additional factors that Mike and Diane should consider if Current Designs is currently operating at full capacity.

MiniTek manufactures private-label small electronic products, such as alarm clocks, calculators, kitchen timers, stopwatches, and automatic pencil sharpeners. Some of the products are sold as sets, and others are sold individually. Products are studied as to their sales potential, and then cost estimates are made. The Engineering Department develops production plans, and then production begins. The company has generally had very successful product introductions. Only two products introduced by the company have been discontinued.
One of the products currently sold is a multi-alarm clock. The clock has four alarms that can be programmed to sound at various times and for varying lengths of time. The company has experienced a great deal of difficulty in making the circuit boards for the clocks. The production process has never operated smoothly. The product is unprofitable at the present time, primarily because of warranty repairs and product recalls. Two models of the clocks were recalled, for example, because they sometimes caused an electric shock when the alarms were being shut off. The Engineering Department is attempting to revise the manufacturing process, but the revision will take another 6 months at least.
The clocks were very popular when they were introduced, and since they are private-label, the company has not suffered much from the recalls. Presently, the company has a very large order for several items fromKmart Stores.The order includes 5,000 of the multi-alarm clocks. When the company suggested that Kmart purchase the clocks from another manufacturer, Kmart threatened to rescind the entire order unless the clocks were included.
The company has therefore investigated the possibility of having another company make the clocks for them. The clocks were bid for the Kmart order based on an estimated $6.90 cost to manufacture:
|
Circuit board, 1 each @ $2.00
|
$2.00
|
|
Plastic case, 1 each @ $0.80
|
0.80
|
|
Alarms, 4 @ $0.15 each
|
0.60
|
|
Labor, 15 minutes @ $12/hour
|
3.00
|
|
Overhead, $2.00 per labor hour
|
0.50
|
MiniTek could purchase clocks to fill the Kmart order for $10 from Trans-Tech Asia, a Korean manufacturer with a very good quality record. Trans-Tech has offered to reduce the price to $7.50 after MiniTek has been a customer for 6 months, placing an order of at least 1,000 units per month. If MiniTek becomes a “preferred customer” by purchasing 15,000 units per year, the price would be reduced still further to $4.50.
Omega Products, a local manufacturer, has also offered to make clocks for MiniTek. They have offered to sell 5,000 clocks for $5 each. However, Omega Products has been in business for only 6 months. They have experienced significant turnover in their labor force, and the local press has reported that the owners may face tax evasion charges soon. The owner of Omega Products is an electronic engineer, however, and the quality of the clocks is likely to be good.
If MiniTek decides to purchase the clocks from either Trans-Tech or Omega, all the costs to manufacture could be avoided, except a total of $5,000 in overhead costs for machine depreciation. The machinery is fairly new, and has no alternate use.
Instructions
(a)What is the difference in profit under each of the alternatives if the clocks are to be sold for $14.50 each to Kmart?
(b)What are the most important nonfinancial factors that MiniTek should consider when making this decision?
(c)What do you think MiniTek should do in regard to the Kmart order? What should it do in regard to continuing to manufacture the multi-alarm clocks? Be prepared to defend your answer.

NuComp Company operates in a state where corporate taxes and workers’ compensation insurance rates have recently doubled. NuComp”s president has just assigned you the task of preparing an economic analysis and making a recommendation relative to moving the entire operation to Missouri. The president is slightly in favor of such a move because Missouri is his boyhood home and he also owns a fishing lodge there.
You have just completed building your dream house, moved in, and sodded the lawn. Your children are all doing well in school and sports and, along with your spouse, want no part of a move to Missouri. If the company does move, so will you because the town is a one-industry community and you and your spouse will have to move to have employment. Moving when everyone else does will cause you to take a big loss on the sale of your house. The same hardships will be suffered by your coworkers, and the town will be devastated.
In compiling the costs of moving versus not moving, you have latitude in the assumptions you make, the estimates you compute, and the discount rates and time periods you project. You are in a position to influence the decision singlehandedly.

School costs money. Is this an expenditure that you should have avoided? A year of tuition at a public four-year college costs about $8,655, and a year of tuition at a public two-year college costs about $1,359. If you did not go to college, you might avoid mountains of school-related debt. In fact, each year, about 600,000 students decide to drop out of school. Many of them never return. Suppose that you are working two jobs and going to college, and that you are not making ends meet. Your grades are suffering due to your lack of available study time. You feel depressed. Should you drop out of school?
YES:You can always go back to school. If your grades are bad and you are depressed, what good is school doing you anyway?
NO:Once you drop out, it is very hard to get enough momentum to go back. Dropping out will dramatically reduce your long-term opportunities. It is better to stay in school, even if you take only one class per semester. While you cannot go back and redo your initial decision, you can look at some facts to evaluate the wisdom of your decision.

Ethics, Enron,Arthur Andersen, and Accounting Changes – In 2001, Enron Corporation filed financial statements in which it did not consolidate various Special Purpose Entities, thereby keeping large amounts of debt off its balance sheet. The company has since declared bankruptcy and admitted that it violated GAAP. Enron’s auditor, Arthur Andersen LLP, issued an unqualified audit opinion stating that Enron had followed GAAP. Instead Enron should have changed its accounting principles to conform to GAAP, and Andersen should not have issued an unqualified opinion. The U.S. Department of Justice began an investigation of Enron and Arthur Andersen. Some employees of Arthur Andersen shredded certain documents related to the audit. As a result the firm was found guilty of obstruction of justice and therefore was no longer able to perform audits. Only a few of the Arthur Andersen partners and employees were involved in the audit and even fewer in the shredding. However, thousands of Arthur Andersen employees lost their jobs.
Required
From an ethical perspective, discuss whether the actions of the Department of Justice were fair with regard to the employees of Arthur Andersen.

Ethics and Accounting Changes and Errors – You are auditing the financial records of a company and reviewing the property, plant, and equipment records. Included in the assets are two buildings and numerous machines in each building. One of the buildings is used to manufacture components of toys; the other is used for assembly and packing, using the manufactured components as well as others purchased from suppliers. You see that the company has changed from the straight-line to the double-declining-balance depreciation method at the beginning of the year. You also discover that a $90,000 repair was added to the cost of the building in the previous year. You decide to ask the CFO about these calculations and she replies, “We decided to change the depreciation method because toys have such short lives and get obsolete so fast. You know how kids always want the latest fad. And that is partly why we are also going to recognize an asset impairment of $150,000 this year. And, as for that $90,000, those repairs should make the building last longer. But, anyway, the amount wasn’t material to our depreciation calculations.” As you walk back to your office, you recall from earlier in the audit that the company uses LIFO for its inventory and that income before income taxes has been around $1 million for each of the last several years.
Required
From financial reporting and ethical perspectives, discuss the issues raised by this situation.

Watertown Paper Corporation is considering adding another machine for the manufacture of corrugated cardboard. The machine would cost $900,000. It would have an estimated life of 6 years and no salvage value. The company estimates that annual revenue would increase by $400,000 and that annual expenses excluding depreciation would increase by $190,000. It uses the straight-line method to compute depreciation expense. Management has a required rate of return of 9%. Compute the annual rate of return.
Expected annual net income = Annual revenues – Annual expenses (including depreciation expense).
Annual rate of return = Expected annual net income/Average investment.
Average investment = (Original investment + Value at end of useful life)/2.

Identification and Accounting for Changes and Errors – The following are several independent events:
1. A partnership is preparing to become a corporation and sell stock to the public. At this time, it is decided to switch from accelerated to straight-line depreciation.
2. A company has been debiting half its advertising costs to an intangible asset account and amortizing these costs over three years.
3. A company has been using accelerated depreciation. It now estimates that the pattern of benefits to be received in the future will be equal each period, so it decides to change to the straight-line depreciation method.
4. A company has been using straight-line depreciation in its property, plant, and equipment. It is now buying a new type of machine and elects to use accelerated depreciation on the new machines.
5. A company has been expensing all its manufacturing cost variances. It decides to allocate them between cost of goods sold and inventory in the future.
Required
Identify the correct accounting treatment for the changes (if any) related to the preceding events.

Its retained earnings balances at the beginning of 2007 and 2008 (unadjusted) were $1,120,000 and $1,540,000, respectively. The company paid no dividends in any year.
Required
1. Prepare the journal entry at the beginning of 2008 to reflect the change.
2. At the end of 2008 prepare comparative income statements for 2008 and 2007. Notes to the financial statements are not necessary.

Journal Entries to Correct Errors – The following are several independent errors made by a company that uses the periodic inventory system:
1. Goods in transit, purchased on credit and shipped FOB destination, $10,000, were included in purchases but not in the ending inventory.
2. A purchase of a machine for $2,000 was expensed. The machine has a four-year life, no residual value, and straight-line depreciation is used.
3. Wages payable of $2,000 were not accrued.
4. Payment of next year’s rent, $4,000, was recorded as rent expense.
5. Allowance for doubtful accounts of $5,000 was not recorded. The company normally uses the aging method.
6. Equipment with a book value of $70,000 and a fair value of $100,000 was sold at the beginning of the year. A two-year non-interest-bearing note for $129,960 was received and recorded at its face value. No interest revenue was recorded and 14% is a fair rate of interest.
Required
Prepare the correcting journal entry or entries for each of the preceding errors, assuming the company discovers the error in the year after it was made. (Ignore income taxes.)

Identification and Effects of Changes and Errors – On January 2, 2007, Quo, Inc. hired Reed as its controller. During the year, Reed, working closely with Quo’s president and outside accountants, made changes in accounting policies, corrected several errors dating from 2006 and before, and instituted new accounting policies. Quo’s 2007 financial statements will be presented in comparative form with its 2006 financial statements. Items 1 through 10 represent Quo’s transactions.
1. Quo manufactures heavy equipment to customer specifications on a contract basis. On the basis that it is preferable, it switched accounting for these long-term contracts from the completed-contact method to the percentage-of-completion method.
2. As a result of a production breakthrough, Quo determined that manufacturing equipment previously depreciated over 15 years should be depreciated over 20 years.
3. The equipment that Quo manufactures is sold with a five-year warranty. Because of a production breakthrough, Quo reduced its computation of warranty costs from 3% of sales to 1% of sales.
4. Quo changed from LIFO to FIFO to account for its finished goods inventory.
5. Quo sells extended service contracts on its products. Because related services are performed over several years, in 2007 Quo changed from the cash method to the accrual method of recognizing income from these service contracts.
6. During 2007 Quo determined that an insurance premium paid and entirely expensed in 2006 was for the period January 1, 2006 through January 1, 2008.
7. Quo changed its method of depreciating office equipment from an accelerated method to the straight-line method to more closely reflect the pattern of benefits.
8. Quo instituted a pension plan for all employees in 2007 and adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87, Employers’ Accounting for Pensions. Quo had not previously had a pension plan.
9. During 2007, Quo increased its investment in Worth, Inc. from a 10% interest, purchased in 2006, to 60%. As a result of its increased investment, Quo changed its method of accounting for investment in subsidiary from the fair value method to the consolidation method.
Required
1. Indicate whether Quo should classify each transaction as: (a) a change in accounting principle, (b) a change in accounting estimate, (c) a correction of an error in previously presented financial statements, or (d) neither an accounting change nor an accounting error.
2. Indicate the accounting treatment for each transaction as: (a) a retrospective adjustment approach, (b) a prior period restatement approach, or (c) a prospective approach.

Changes and Corrections of Depreciation – At the beginning of 2008, the controller of Holden Company asked you to prepare correcting entries for the following three situations:
1. Machine X was purchased for $100,000 on January 1, 2003. Straight-line depreciation has been recorded for five years, and the Accumulated Depreciation account has a balance of $45,000. The estimated residual value remains at $10,000, but the service life is now estimated to be one year longer than originally estimated.
2. Machine Y was purchased for $40,000 on January 1, 2006. It had an estimated residual value of $4,000 and an estimated service life of eight years. It has been depreciated under the sum-of-the-years’-digits method for two years. Now, the company has decided to change to the straight-line method.
3. Machine Z was purchased for $80,000 on January 1, 2007. Double-declining-balance depreciation has been recorded for one year. The estimated residual value is $8,000 and the estimated service life is five years. The computation of the depreciation erroneously included the estimated residual value.
Required
Prepare any necessary correcting journal entries for each situation. Also prepare the journal entry for each situation to record the depreciation for 2008. (Ignore income taxes.)

Change in Accounting for Inventory – The Kraft Manufacturing Company manufactures two products: Mult and Tran. At December 31, 2007 Kraft used the FIFO inventory method. Effective January 1, 2008, Kraft changed to the LIFO inventory method. The cumulative effect of this change is not determinable and, as a result, the ending inventory of 2007, for which the FIFO method was used, is also the beginning inventory for 2008 for the LIFO method. Any layers added during 2008 should be costed by reference to the first acquisitions of 2008, and any layers liquidated during 2008 should be considered a permanent liquidation.
The following information was available from Kraft’s inventory records for the two most recent years:

These financial statements are audited for the first time at the beginning of 2008, and the following facts are discovered:
1. The company has not made any allowance for noncollection of accounts receivable. An allowance of 1% of total sales is considered appropriate. Uncollectible accounts of $630 should have been written off in 2007.
2. The notes payable are to officers of the company and have an interest rate of 12%. They were issued on January 1, 2005. No interest has been accrued or paid. (Assume simple interest and no compounding.)
3. The company has been using MACRS over a five-year life for both financial reporting and income tax purposes. It has been decided that the straight-line method should have been used for financial reporting, based on an economic life of 10 years and a zero residual value, with a full year’s depreciation being recorded in the year of acquisition. No disposals of property, plant, and equipment have occurred.
4. After adjustments, with the exception of depreciation, expenses deducted for financial accounting purposes are the same as those deducted for income tax purposes.
5. The company is subject to a 30% income tax rate and pays its taxes at the end of each year.
Required
1. Prepare the financial statements for 2005, 2006, and 2007 that the company would issue at the beginning of 2008.
2. Describe what method the company would use to account for each item if the financial statements for all three years had been publicly issued previously.

Error Correction – At the end of 2008 while auditing the books of the Sandlin Company, before the books have been closed, you find the following items:
a. A building with a 30-year life (no residual value, straight-line depreciation) was purchased on January 1, 2008 by issuing a $90,000 non-interest-bearing, four-year note. The entry made to record the purchase was a debit to Building and a credit to Notes Payable for $90,000; 12% is a fair rate of interest on the note.
b. The inventory at the end of 2008 was found to be overstated by $15,000. At the same time it was discovered that the inventory at the end of 2007 had been overstated by $35,000. The company uses the perpetual inventory system.
c. For the last three years, the company has failed to accrue salaries and wages. The correct amounts at the end of each year were: 2006—$12,000; 2007—$18,000; 2008—$10,000.
Required
1. Prepare journal entries to correct the errors (ignore income taxes).

Error Correction – The bookkeeper of the Cask Company, who has maintained its accounting records since the company’s formation in January 2005, has prepared the unaudited financial statements. In your examination of these statements at the end of 2007, you discover the following items:
1. Sales taxes collected from customers have been included in the sales account. The Sales Tax Expense account is debited when the sales taxes are remitted to the state in the month following the sale. All sales are subject to a 6% sales tax. Total sales (excluding sales tax) for the three years 2005 through 2007 were $200,000, $300,000, and $500,000, respectively. The Sales Tax Expense account balance for the three years was $10,000, $15,000, and $26,000, respectively.
2. An account payable of $15,000 for merchandise purchased in December 2005 was recorded in January 2006. The merchandise was not included in inventory at December 31, 2005.
3. Merchandise with a cost of $4,000 was included twice in the December 31, 2006 inventory.
4. The company has used the direct write-off method of accounting for bad debts. Accounts written off in the three years 2005 through 2007 were $2,000, $4,500, and $6,500, respectively. The appropriate balances of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts at the end of 2005 through 2007 are $5,000, $6,000, and $8,200, respectively.
5. On January 1, 2006, 12%, 10-year bonds with a face value of $600,000 were issued at 102. The premium was credited to Additional Paid-in Capital. The bonds pay interest on June 30 and December 31, and use of the straight-line amortization method is appropriate.
6. Travel advances to the sales personnel of $18,000 were included as selling expenses for 2006. The travel occurred in 2007.
7. Salaries payable at the end of each year have not been accrued. Appropriate amounts at the end of 2005 through 2007 are $10,000, $11,000, and $7,000, respectively.

Comprehensive – The financial statements of the Gray Company showed income before income taxes of $4,030,000 for the year ended December 31, 2008, and $3,330,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007. Additional information is as follows:
1. Capital expenditures were $2,800,000 in 2008 and $4,000,000 in 2007. Included in the 2008 capital expenditures is equipment purchased for $1,000,000 on January 1, 2008, with no salvage value. Gray used straight-line depreciation based on a 10-year estimated life in its financial statements. As a result of additional information now available, it is estimated that this equipment should have only an eight-year life.
2. Gray made an error in its financial statements that should be regarded as material. A payment of $180,000 was made in January 2008 and charged to expense in 2008 for insurance premiums applicable to policies commencing and expiring in 2007. No liability had been recorded for this item at December 31, 2007.
3. The allowance for doubtful accounts reflected in Gray’s financial statements was $7,000 at December 31, 2008, and $97,000 at December 31, 2007. During 2008, $90,000 of uncollectible receivables were written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts. In 2007, the provision for doubtful accounts was based on a percentage of net sales. The 2008 provision has not yet been recorded. Net sales were $58,500,000 for the year ended December 31, 2008, and $49,230,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007. Based on the latest available facts, the 2008 provision for doubtful accounts is estimated to be 0.2% of net sales.
4. A review of the estimated warranty liability at December 31, 2008, which is included in “other liabilities’ in Gray’s financial statements, has disclosed that this estimated liability should be increased $170,000.
5. Gray has two large blast furnaces that it uses in its manufacturing process. These furnaces must be periodically relined. Furnace A was relined in January 2002 at a cost of $230,000 and in January 2007 at a cost of $280,000. Furnace B was relined for the first time in January 2008 at a cost of $300,000. In Gray’s financial statements, these costs were expensed as incurred.
Since a relining will last for five years, a more appropriate matching of revenues and costs would result if the cost of the relining were capitalized and depreciated over the productive life of the relining. Gray has decided to make a change in accounting principle from expensing relining costs as incurred to capitalizing them and depreciating them over their productive life on a straight-line basis with a full year’s depreciation in the year of relining. This change meets the requirements for a change in accounting principle under FASB Statement No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections.”
Required

During the course of the audit, the following additional facts were determined:
1. An analysis of collections and losses on accounts receivable during the past two years indicates a drop in anticipated losses because of bad debts. After consultation with management, it was agreed that the loss experience rate on sales should be reduced from the recorded 2% to 1%, beginning with the year ended December 31, 2008.
2. An analysis of the available-for-sale securities revealed that this portfolio consisted entirely of short-term investments in marketable equity securities that were acquired in 2007. The total market valuation for these investments as of the end of each year was as follows: December 31, 2007—$81,000; December 31, 2008—$62,000.
3. The merchandise inventory at December 31, 2007 was overstated by $4,000 and the merchandise inventory at December 31, 2008 was overstated by $6,100.
4. On January 2, 2007, equipment costing $12,000 (estimated useful life of 10 years and residual value of $1,000) was incorrectly charged to Operating Expenses. Ingalls records depreciation via the straight-line method. In 2008, fully depreciated equipment (with no residual value) that originally cost $17,500 was sold as scrap for $2,500. Noble credited the proceeds of $2,500 to Property and Equipment.
5. An analysis of 2007 operating expenses revealed that Ingalls charged to expense a three-year insurance premium of $2,700 on January 15, 2007.
Required
1. Prepare the journal entries to correct the books at December 31, 2008. The books for 2008 have not been closed. Ignore income taxes.
2. Prepare a schedule showing the computation of corrected net income for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, assuming that any adjustments are to be reported on comparative statements for the two years. The first items on your schedule should be the net income for each year. Ignore income taxes. (Do not prepare financial statements.)

Accounting Changes – Berkeley Company, a manufacturer of many different products, changed its inventory method from FIFO to LIFO. The LIFO method was determined to be preferable. In addition, Berkeley changed the residual values used in computing depreciation for its office equipment. It made this change on January 1, 2007 because it obtained additional information. On December 31, 2007, Berkeley changed the specific subsidiaries comprising the group of companies for which consolidated financial statements are presented.
Required

Accounting Changes – Sometimes a business entity may change its method of accounting for certain items. It may classify the change as a change in accounting principle, a change in accounting estimate, or a change in reporting entity. The following are three independent, unrelated sets of facts relating to accounting changes. Situation I A company determined that the depreciable lives of its fixed assets are presently too long to fairly match the cost of the fixed assets with the revenue produced. The company decided at the beginning of the current year to reduce the depreciable lives of all of its existing fixed assets by five years. Situation II On December 31, 2009, Hyde Company owned 51% of Patten Company, at which time Hyde reported its investment using the cost method, owing to political uncertainties in the country in which Patten was located. On January 2, 2007, the management of Hyde Company was satisfied that the political uncertainties were resolved and the assets of the company were in no danger of nationalization. Accordingly, Hyde will prepare consolidated financial statements for Hyde and Patten for the year ended December 31, 2007. Situation III A company decides in January 2007 to adopt the straight-line method of depreciation for plant equipment. The straight-line method will be used for new acquisitions, as well as for previously acquired plant equipment for which depreciation had been provided on an accelerated basis.
Required
For each of the preceding situations, provide the following information. Complete your discussion of each situation before going on to the next situation.
1. Type of accounting change.
2. Manner of reporting the change under current generally accepted accounting principles, including a discussion, where applicable, of how amounts are computed.
3. Effect of the change on the statement of financial position and earnings statement.
4. Note disclosures that would be necessary.

Accounting Changes – It is important in accounting theory to be able to distinguish the types of accounting changes.
Required
1. If a public company desires to change from the sum-ofthe- years’-digits depreciation method to the straight-line method for its fixed assets, what type of accounting change would this be? Discuss the permissibility of this change.
2. If a public company obtained additional information about the service lives of some of its fixed assets that showed that the service lives previously used should be shortened, what type of accounting change would this be? Include in your discussion how the change is reported in the year of the change, and what disclosures are made in the financial statements or notes.
3. If a company discovers halfway through a building’s life that it ignored the residual value of the building in computing the straight-line depreciation, what type of accounting change would this be? Include in your discussion how the change is reported in the year of the change, and what disclosures are made in the financial statements or notes.
4. Changing specific subsidiaries comprising the group of companies for which consolidated financial statements are presented is an example of what type of accounting change? What effect does it have on the consolidated income statements?

Ethics and Cash Flows – You are the accountant for Nello Company, which manufactures specialty equipment. Nello has been in financial difficulty, so its suppliers require purchases to be paid in cash. Furthermore, Nello has long-term debt with a debt covenant that requires it to maintain
a 1:1 acid-test (quick) ratio. Nello’s employees work a five-day week, Monday through Friday.
On Wednesday morning during the last week of the current year, Sam (the production supervisor) comes to you and says, “I don’t understand it. We have this large special order from a customer that must be delivered at the end of the first week in January. Once we get the raw materials, it is going to take five solid days of work without overtime to produce the order. If Bob (the president) would let me order the raw materials this morning, we could have them by late today. This would give us two days this week and the four days after New Year’s Day (Monday) of next week to complete the order without incurring overtime costs. But Bob says we must wait until next Tuesday to order the materials. This means we will have to work double time that Wednesday through Friday to finish the order. That overtime cost is going to really increase next year’s factory salary expense, so our profit and operating cash flows from that order will be very low. Please talk to him.” When you approach Bob about buying the raw materials this morning, he says, “If we purchase those materials today, we will have to write a check. And that means our cash flow from operating activities for this year will be much lower, which our stockholders won’t like. Furthermore, our quick ratio will go down from 1.01:1 to .90:1, so our creditors may be upset. I know our profit and operating cash flows for next year will be lower if we delay the purchase, but that seems to be the best decision. Don’t you agree?”
Required
From financial reporting and ethical perspectives, how would you respond to Bob?

Researching GAAP Situation – You are the new accountant for 12th National Bank and are preparing its 2007 statement of cash flows. The bank reports net income of $75,800 on its 2007 income statement. Included in this net income are the following items:
$6,700 gain on sale of trading securities, $1,200 unrealized holding gain on trading securities, and $5,100 loss on sale of securities available for sale. Among its 2007 transactions, the bank sold trading securities with a carrying value of $22,900 for $29,600, and purchased trading securities for $65,200. The bank sold securities available for sale with a cost (and carrying value) of $58,700 for $53,600, and purchased securities available for sale for $39,400. It also made routine 90-day loans of $47,500 to customers and collected $20,000 principal on these customer loans. As a result of the preceding information, the bank’s trading securities account increased by $43,500, the securities available for sale account decreased by $19,300, and the loans receivable account increased by $27,500. The bank uses the indirect approach to report operating cash flows on its statement of cash flows.
Directions
Research the applicable generally accepted accounting principles and prepare a written memo to the 12th National Bank’s auditors that explains how you plan to report the preceding items on the bank’s 2007 statement of cash flows. Cite your reference and applicable paragraph numbers.

During 2007 White Company determined that machinery previously depreciated over a seven-year life had a total estimated useful life of only five years. An accounting change was made in 2007 to reflect the change in estimate. If the change had been made in 2006, accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2006 would have been $1,600,000 instead of $1,200,000. As a result of this change the 2007 depreciation expense was $100,000 greater. The income tax rate was 30% in both years. What should be reported in White’s retained earnings statement for the year ended December 31, 2007 as the cumulative effect on prior years of changing the estimated useful life of the machinery?
a. $0
b. $280,000
c. $300,000
d. $400,000

On January 1, 2007 Belmont Company changed its inventory cost flow method to the FIFO cost method from the LIFO cost method. Belmont can justify the change, which was made for both financial statement and income tax reporting purposes. Belmont’s inventories aggregated $4,000,000 on the LIFO basis at December 31, 2006. Supplementary records maintained by Belmont showed that the inventories would have totaled $4,800,000 at December 31, 2006 on the FIFO basis. Ignoring income taxes, the adjustment for the effect of changing to the FIFO method from the LIFO method should be reported by Belmont in the 2007
a. Income statement as an $800,000 debit
b. Retained earnings statement as an $800,000 debit adjustment to the beginning balance
c. Income statement as an $800,000 credit

This exercise will allow you to practice using various depreciation methods and it will also give you the opportunity to compare the results of using one method to the results of using another method. On January 1, 2014, Kinka Company, a manufacturer, acquires for $230,000 a piece of new equipment. The new equipment has a useful life of five years and the salvage value is estimated to be $30,000. Kinka estimates that the new equipment can produce a total of 80,000 units. Kinka expects it to produce 20,000 units in its first year, 18,000 units in its second year, 32,000 units in its third year, and 5,000 units each in its last two years.
The following depreciation methods are being considered:
Straight-line
Declining-balance using double the straight-line rate
Units-of-activity
Instructions
- Prepare depreciation schedules for the equipment using the following methods:
(1) straight-line
(2) double-declining-balance
(3) units-of-activity
Each schedule should display the annual depreciation expense for each year of service life and the resulting amounts of accumulated depreciation and book value. Round to the nearest dollar.
- Identify the depreciation method which would result in the maximization of profits for financial reporting for the three-year period ending December 31, 2016. Explain why.
- Identify the depreciation method which would result in the highest book value at the end of the third year of service life.
- Identify the depreciation method which would result in the lowest book value at the end of the third year of service life.

Anoushka, a young MBA student, has just passed out from her college. Her batch mates have decided to join the corporate world, through their campus job placement whereas she has decided to be an entrepreneur. Anoushka has a business plan to open a fast food outlet in the heart of the city she lives in. Initially, the outlet is supposed to sell only burgers. Later on, she thinks of adding pizzas and desserts to the menu. The cost of cooking each burger comes to be INR 5. The service cost per burger comes to be INR 2. The cost of additional serving per burger is INR 1. The burgers are cooked on demand; hence, there will be no inventory storage costs. The selling price per burger is initially fixed at INR 12. Instead of buying the place, Anoushka decides to rent a place for of the fast food outlet. The rent will be INR 5,000 per month. Anoushka applies for the loan for buying the kitchenware, furniture and other decorative items. Her application is under the category of women entrepreneurial development loan and gets easily passed by a public sector bank. She is supposed to pay INR 40,000 per annum as fixed interest payment towards the loan.

This exercise will illustrate the need for certain internal control procedures. Four independent situations appear below:
Situation 1: The Broadway Cinema Company operates six movie screens in a local mall. Although the cashier gives a ticket to each customer upon payment of the movie price, no one collects the ticket as the customer enters the theater.
Situation 2: Home Gadgets sells a multitude of housewares. Although there is a register at the check out counter, it has been situated so that the customer cannot see the display and thus has no evidence of what the clerk rings up. (No scanning equipment is used.)
Receipts are allowed to remain on the cash register in a continuous strip unless a customer requests that their receipt be torn from the register.
Situation 3: Better Bath Wear Company hires people based solely on an interview with the store manager.
Situation 4: The individual who is responsible for writing the checks to pay bills for Seafin Seafoods is also the employee who prepares the monthly bank reconciliation.
Instructions
For each situation, identify the internal control principle being violated and briefly describe the risk inherent in the existing circumstances.

A new managing director has recently joined the company and he has engaged your organization to advise on his company’s selling price policy. The sales price of £60 has been derived as above from a cost-plus pricing policy. The price was viewed as satisfactory because the resulting demand enabled full capacity operation.
You have been asked to investigate the. effect on costs and profit of an increase in the selling price. The marketing department has provided you with the following estimates of sales volumes which could be achieved at the three—alternative sales prices under consideration.

|
|
Annual sales volume (units)
|

|

|
11000
|
You have spent some time estimating the effect that changes in output volume will have on cost behaviour patterns and you have now collected the following information.
Direct material: The loss of bulk discounts means that the direct material cost per unit will increase by 15% for all units produced in the year if activity reduces below 15 000 units per annum.
Direct labour: Savings in bonus payments will reduce labour costs by 10% for all units produced in the year if activity reduces below 20 000 units per annum.
Sales commission: This would continue to be paid at the rate of 10% of sales price.
Fixed production overhead: If annual output volume was below 20 000 units, then a machine rental cost of £10 000 per annum could be saved. This will be the only change in the total expenditure on fixed production overhead. Fixed selling overhead: A reduction in the part-time sales force would result in a £5000 per annum saving if annual sales volume falls below 24 000 units. This will be the only change in the total expenditure on fixed selling and distribution overhead.
Variable production overhead: There would be no change in the unit cost for variable production overhead.
Administration overhead: The total expenditure on administration overhead would remain unaltered within this range of activity.
Stocks: Rane’s product is highly perishable, therefore no stocks are held.
Task 1
(a) Calculate the annual profit which is earned with the current selling price of £60 per unit.
(b) Prepare a schedule to show the annual profit which would be earned with each of the three alternative selling prices.
Task 2
Prepare a brief memorandum to your boss, Chris Jones. The memorandum should cover the following points:
(a) Your recommendation as to the selling price which should be charged to maximize Rane limited’s annual profits.
(b) Two non-financial factors which the management of Rane Limited should consider before planning to operate below full capacity.
Another of your consultancy’s clients is a manufacturing company, Shortage Limited, which is experiencing problems in obtaining supplies of a major component. The component is used in all of its four products and there is a labour dispute at the supplier’s factory, which is restricting the component’s availability.
Supplies will be restricted to 22 400 components for the next period and the company wishes to ensure that the best use is made of the available components. This is the only component used in the four products, and there are no alternatives and no other suppliers.
The components cost £2 each and are used in varying amounts in each of the four products.
Shortage Limited’s fixed costs amount to £8000 per period. No stocks are held of finished goods or work in progress.

As part of Hilton’s long-term strategic plan the K department was due to be closed at the end of the forthcoming year. However, rumours of the closure have resulted in the majority of K’s labour force leaving the firm and this has forced the abandonment of the original budget for the department.
The managing director has suggested that the (vii) department could be closed down immediately or, by employing contract labour, could be operated to produce 10 000 or 20 000 units in the year. With the exception of the foreman (see Note (v)), the few remaining members of K’s production labour force would then be redeployed within the firm.
The following further information is available:
(i) Each hour of contract labour will cost £3.00 and will produce one unit of the product. Contract labour would have to be trained at a fixed cost of £20 000.
(ii) There are 30 000 litres of material A in stock. This material has no other use and any of it not used in department K will have to be disposed of. Costs of disposal will be £2000 plus £0.50 per litre disposed of.
(iii) There are 15 000 kg of material B in stock. If the material is not used in department K then up to 10 000 kg could be used in another department to substitute for an equivalent weight of a material which currently costs £1.8 per kg. Material B originally cost £1.5 per kg and its current market price (buying or selling) is £2.0 per kg. Costs to Hilton of selling any surplus material B will amount to £1.00 per kg sold.
(iv) Variable overheads will be 30% higher, per unit produced, than originally budgeted.
(v) Included in ‘Fixed manufacturing overheads’ are
(a) £6000 salary of the departmental foreman,
(b) £7000 depreciation of the machine used in the department.
If the department is closed immediately the foreman, who will otherwise retire at the end of the year, will be asked to retire early and paid £2000 compensation for agreeing to this.
The only machine used in the department originally cost £70 000 and could currently be sold for £43 000. This sales value will reduce to £40 000 at the end of the year and, if used for any production during the year, will decrease by a further £500 per 1000 units produced.
(vi) All other costs included in ‘Fixed manufacturing overhead’ and all Non-manufacturing costs’ are apportionments of general overheads, none of which will be altered by any decision concerning the K department.
(vii)The sales manager suggests that a sales volume of 10 000 units could be achieved if the unit sales price were £9.00. A sales volume of 20 000 units would be achieved if the sales price per unit were reduced to £8 and an advertising campaign costing £15 000 were undertaken.
Required:
(a) Advise Hilton Ltd of its best course of action regarding department K, presenting any data in tabular form.
(b) Show how the advice given in (a) above is altered if the closure of department K would enable its factory space to be -rented out for one year at a rental of £8000.
Ignore taxation and the time value of money.

The fixed overheads for Euro are £24 000 000 per annum,- and monthly production varies from 400 000 to 1 000 000 hours. The monthly overhead rate for fixed overhead will therefore fluctuate as follows:
|
Monthly overhead
|
£2 000 000
|
£2 000 000
|
|
Monthly production
|
400 000 hours
|
1 000 000 hours
|
|
Monthly overhead rate
|
£5 per hour
|
£2 per hour
|
Overhead expenditure that is fixed in the short term remains constant each month, but monthly production fluctuates because of holiday periods and seasonal variations in demand. Consequently the overhead rate varies from £2 to £5 per hour. It would be unreasonable for a product worked on in one month to be allocated overheads at a rate of £5 per hour and an identical product worked on in another month allocated at a rate of only £2 per hour.

The Auckland Company is launching a new product. Sales volume will be dependent on the selling price and customer acceptance but because the product differs substantially from other products within the same product category it has not been possible to obtain any meaningful estimates of price/demand relationships. The best estimate is that demand is likely to range between 100 000 and 200 000 units provided that the selling price is less than £100. Based on this information the company has produced the following cost estimates and selling prices required to generate a target profit contribution of £2 million from the product.

Fixed costs were £480 000 for the year, absorbed on machining hours which were fully utilized for the production achieved.
A new Managing Director has been appointed and he is somewhat sceptical about the plan being proposed. Furthermore, he thinks that additional machining capacity should be installed to remove any production bottlenecks and wonders whether a more flexible pricing policy should be adopted.
Table 2 summarizes the changes in costs involved for the extra capacity and gives price/demand data, supplied by the Marketing Department, applicable to the conditions expected in the next period.
Table 2:
Costs
Extra machining capacity would increase fixed costs by 10% in total. Variable costs and machining times per unit would remain unchanged.

Cost-plus and relevant cost information for pricing decisions
Josun plc manufactures cereal based foods, including various breakfast cereals under private brand labels. In March the company had been approached by Cohin plc, a large national supermarket chain, to tender for the manufacture and supply of a crunchy style breakfast cereal made from oats, nuts, raisins, etc. The tender required Josun to quote prices for a 1.5 kg packet at three different weekly volumes: 50 000, 60 000 and 70 000. Josun plc had, at present, excess capacity on some of its machines and could make a maximum of 80 000 packets of cereal a week.
Josun’s management accountant is asked to prepare a costing for the Cohin tender. The company prepares its tender prices on the basis of full cost plus 15% of cost as a profit margin. The full cost is made up of five elements: raw materials per packet of £0.30p; operating wages £0.12p per packet; manufacturing overheads costed at 200% of operating wages; administration and other corporate overheads at 100% of operating wages; and packaging and transport costing £0.10p per packet. The sales manager has suggested that as an incentive to Cohin, the profit margin be cut on the 60 000 and 70 000 tenders by 2% and 1% to 144% and 14% respectively. The manufacturing and administration overheads are forecast as fixed at £12 500 per week, unless output drops to 50 000 units or below per week, when a saving of £1000 per week can be made. If no contract is undertaken then all the manufacturing and administration overheads will be saved except for £600 per week. If the tender is accepted’ the volume produced and sold will be determined by the sales achieved by Cohin.
A week before the Cohin tender is to be presented for negotiation, Josun – receives an enquiry from Stamford plc, a rival supermarket chain, to produce, weekly, 60 000 packets of a similar type of breakfast cereal of slightly superior quality at a price of £1.20 per 1.5 kg packet, the quality and mix of the cereal constituents being laid down by Stamford. This product will fill a gap in Stamford’s private label range of cereals. The estimated variable costs for this contract. would be: raw materials £0.40p per packet, operating labour £0.15p per packet and packaging and transport £0.12p per packet. None of the 80 000 weekly capacity could be used for another product if either of these contracts were taken up.
You are required to:
(a) compute the three selling prices per packet for the Cohin tender using Josun’s normal pricing method;
(b)advise Josun, giving your financial reasons, on the relative merits of the two contracts;
(c)discuss the merits of full-cost pricing as a method of arriving at selling prices;
(d)make recommendations to Josun as to the method it might use to derive its selling prices in future;
(e) calculate the expected value of each tender given the following information and recommend which potential customer should receive the greater sales effort. It is estimated that there is a 70% chance of Stamford signing the contract for the weekly production of 60 000 packets, while there is a 20% chance of Cohin not accepting the tender. It is also estimated that the probabilities of Cohin achieving weekly sales volumes of 50 000, 60 000 or 70 000 are 0.3, 0.5 and 0.2 respectively. The two sets of negotiations are completely inde-pendent of each other;
(f) provide, with reasons, for each of the two contracts under negotiation, a minimum and a recommended price that Josun could ask for the extra quantity that could be produced under each contract and which would ensure the full utilization of Josun’s weekly capacity of 80 000 packets.

Preparation of functional budgets
D Limited is preparing its annual budgets for the year to 31 December 2001. It manufactures and sells one product, which has a selling price of £150. The marketing director believes that the price can be increased to £160 with effect from 1 July 2001 and that at this price the sales volume for each quarter of 2001 will be as follows:
|
|

|
|
Quarter 4
|
45000
|
Sales for each quarter of 2002 are expected to be 40 000 units.
Each unit of the finished product which is manufactured requires four units of component R and three units of component T, together with a body shell S. These items are purchased from an outside supplier. Currently prices are:
|
Component R
|
£8.00 each
|
|
Component T
|

|
|
Shell S
|
£30.00 each
|
The components are expected to increase in price by 10% with effect from 1 April 2001; no change is expected in the price of the shell.
Assembly of the shell and components into the finished product requires 6 labour hours: labour is currently paid £5.00 per hour. A 4% increase in wage costs is anticipated to take effect from 1 October 2001.
Variable overhead costs are expected to be £10 per unit for the whole of 2001; fixed production overhead costs are expected to be £240 000 for the year, and are absorbed on a per unit basis. Stocks on 31 December 2000 are expected to be as follows:
|
Finished units
|
9000 units
|
|
Component R
|
3000 units
|
|
Component T
|
5500 units
|
|
Shell S
|
500 units
|
Closing stocks at the end of each quarter are to be as follows:
|
Finished units
|
10% of next quarter’s sales
|
|
Component R
|
20% of next quarter’s
|
|
|

Tata Motors is the India”s largest automobile company. The company in 2008 acquired the Jaguar Land Rover business from Ford Motor Company for USD 2.3 billion cash. The acquisition was completed by June 2008. At the same time, the company launched the Nano—the world”s most economical car priced at INR 100,000. These initiatives resulted in huge cash outflows from the company. The company intended to raise funds for theses initiatives through loan and equity issues. However, the times turned out to be unfavourable for the company. By 2008, the world economy was under depression and witnessed a massive credit crunch. Fund raising became difficult for the company and by 2009 turned out to be an expensive activity. As the United States, the world”s strongest economy, went into recession, the global economy started feeling the demand crunch. Slow demand and rising cost took a toll on the company”s operating cash flows. Capital expenditure resulted in huge cash outflow from the company. As a result, global rating agencies, S&P and Moody”s, cut the ratings on Tata Motors. They further indicated more cuts in the ratings if the scenario did not improve. The company as on 2009 is on the watchlist of many analysts as the cash flow for the company became a critical factor. The company in February 2009 was banking on bailout package from the government to manage its liquidity crisis. The company is on the spree of spending through long-term investments. At the same time, the operating revenues have suffered setback due to global economic depression. This has put Tata Motors into a tight liquidity position. It will be interesting to watch how Tata Motors manages to generate funds in the troubled times.
Look at the Tata Motors’ cash flow statement for three consecutive years Then, answer the following questions:
- How do you assess the cash flow position of the company for the next two years?
- Do you think the company will go for financial restructuring in order to streamline its cash position?

Increasing competition and inflation have compelled Indian corporations to make more profits by cutting down their operational and production costs. Most of the companies initiated cost cutting measures to enhance their profitability. Take, for example, FMCG giant Hindustan Unilever Ltd (HUL). HUL reported a 20 per cent increase in net profit to INR 3467.3 million in the June quarter of 2001. However, the figure of its net sales was quite sluggish, showing only 1.8 per cent growth at INR 29.3125 billion. Similarly, India”s largest corporate, Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL), posted nearly 14 per cent rise in net profit at INR 6.18 billion for the first quarter that ended in June 2001. But if you notice the sales figure, there was an increase of just 4 per cent at INR 63.9 billion crore from INR 61.36 billion in the previous year. Growth during the quarter came due to increase in capacity utilization at 103 percent, increase in volumes and prices and voluntary retirement schemes. As part of restructuring its textiles business which contributed only one per cent of its total turnover, the company retired 4,600 out of 4,900 employees during 2001 at a cost of INR 770 million. In spite of sales being flat the profits were increased by initiating cost cutting exercises. Aditya Birla Group company Grasim also incurred 89 per cent increase in the net profit at INR 1.12 billion for the June 2001 quarter. Interestingly, the sales revenue showed only a marginal decline at INR 11.84 billion as compared to INR 11.96 billion for the same period previous year. This was achieved when the company reduced its fixed interest cost by 22 per cent at INR 480 million as against INR 610 million in the corresponding previous year. Gujarat Ambuja Cements reported a 32.46 per cent increase in net profit to INR 770 million for the year 2001. However, its sales rose at a lower pace by 23.5 per cent to INR 3.78 billion from INR 3.06 billion in the previous year. For the year that ended June 2001, net profit rose by 6 per cent to INR 1.86 billion while turnover rose by 11 per cent to INR 14.48 billion over the previous year. If we notice that the company was able to improve its sales marginally in 2001 as compared with the previous year, the reduction in costs helped the company to improve its profit to 36.8 per cent from 27.1 per cent in the previous year. Britannia Industries also showed similar results. It posted a20 per cent increase in its net profit at INR 162 million but its net sales increased marginally by 5.81 per cent to INR 3.49 billion. Most of the Indian corporations since 2000–01 have reduced their costs to increase their bottom line. This has helped them maintain the growth in their margins even in the case of stagnant market conditions.
Questions
- Identify the various cost cutting measures initiated by the infrastructure and FMCG companies in India.
- Prepare a chart of various companies which have faced serious profitability problems and have painted themselves black by sheer cost cutting measures.
- Discuss the cost cutting measures in terms of
- Supply chain and inventoried costs
- Fixed costs
- Variable costs

1 Brita Beds sells three types of bed, models A to C inclusive.
2 Selling prices are determined by adding 30% to the cost of beds.
3 Sales assistants receive a commission of 10% of the selling price for each bed sold.
4 The beds are delivered in consignments of 10 beds at a cost of £400 per delivery. This expense is shown as ‘Transport’ in the profit and loss account.
5 All other expenses are annual amounts.
6 The mix of models sold is likely to remain constant irrespective of overall sales volume.

In preparation for your meeting with Judith Howarth, you are asked to calculate:
(a) the minimum number of beds to be sold if Brita Beds is to avoid making a loss;
(b) the minimum turnover required if Brita Beds it to avoid making a loss.
At the meeting, Judith Howarth provides you with further information:
1 The purchase price of the business is £300 000.
2 Judith has savings of £300 000 currently earning 5% interest per annum, which she can use to aquire Beta Beds.
3 Her current salary is £36 550.
To reduce costs, Judith suggests that she should take over the role of manager as the current one is about to retire. However, she does not want to take a reduction in income. Judith also tells you that she has been carrying out some market research. The results of this are as follows:
1 The number of households in Mytown is currently 44 880
2 Brita Beds Ltd is the only outlet selling beds in Mytown.
3 According to a recent survey, 10% of house-holds change their beds every 9 years, 60% every 10 years and 30% every 11 years.
4 The survey also suggested that there is an average of 2.1 beds per household.
Task 2
Write a letter to Judith Howarth. Your letter should: (a) identify the profit required to compensate for the loss of salary and interest;
(b) show the number of beds to be sold to achieve that profit;
(c) calculate the likely maximum number of beds that Brita Beds would sell in a year;
(d) use your answers in {a) to (c) to justify whether or not Judith Howarth should purchase the company and become its manager;
(e) give two possible reasons why your estimate of the maximum annual sales volume may prove inaccurate.
On receiving your letter, Judith Howarth decides she would prefer to remain as the purchasing director for Winter plc rather than acquire Brita Beds Ltd. Shortly afterwards, you receive a telephone call from her. Judith explains that Winter plc is redeveloping its premises and that she is concerned about the appropriate sales policy for Winter’s bed department while the redevelopment takes place. Although she has a statement of unit profitability, this had been prepared before the start of the redevelopment and had assumed that there would be in excess of 800 square metres of storage space available to the bed department. Storage space is critical as customers demand immediate delivery and are not prepared to wait until the new stock arrives.
The next day, Judith Howarth sends you a letter containing a copy of the original statement of profitability. This is reproduced below:

In her letter she asks for your help in preparing a marketing plan which will maximize the profit-ability of Winter’s bed department while the re-development takes place. To help you, she has provided you with the following additional information:
1 Currently storage space available totals 300 square metres.
2 Staff costs represent the salaries of the sales staff in the bed department. Their total cost of £3780 per month is apportioned to units on the basis of planned turnover.
3 Departmental fixed overhead of £2000 per month is directly attributable to the department and is apportioned on the number of beds planned to be sold.
4 General fixed overheads of £2520 are also apportioned on the number of beds planned to be sold. The directors of Winter plc believe this to be a fair apportionment of the store’s central fixed overheads.
5 The cost of carriage inwards and the cost of beds vary directly with the number of beds purchased.
Task 3
(a) Prepare a recommended monthly sales schedule in units which will maximize the profitability of Winter plc’s bed department.
(b) Calculate the profit that will be reported per month if your recommendation is implemented.

Decision-making and non-graphical CVP analysis
Fosterjohn Press Ltd is considering launching a new monthly magazine at a selling price of £1 per copy. Sales of the magazine are expected to be 500 000 copies per month, but it is possible that the actual sales could differ quite significantly from this estimate.
— Two different methods of producing the magazine are being considered and neither would involve any additional capital expenditure. The estimated production costs for each of the two methods of manufacture, together with the additional marketing and distribution costs of selling the new magazine, are summarized below:
|
|
Method A

It may be assumed that the fixed cost content of the semi-variable costs will remain constant throughout the range of activity shown.
The company currently sells a magazine covering related topics to those that will be included in the new publication and consequently it is anticipated that sales of this existing magazine will be adversely affected. It is estimated that for every ten copies sold of the new publication, sales of the existing magazine will be reduced by one copy.
Sales and cost data of the existing magazine are shown below:
|

Required:
(a) Calculate, for each production method, the net increase in company profits which will result from the introduction of the new magazine, at each of the following levels of activity:
500 000 copies per month
400 000 copies per month
600 000 copies per month
(b) Calculate, for each production method, the amount by which sales volume of the new magazine could decline from the anticipated 500 000 copies per month, before the company makes no additional profit from the introduction of the new publication.
(c) Briefly identify any conclusions which may be drawn from your calculations.

Decision-making and non-graphical CVP analysis Mr Belle has recently developed a new improved video cassette and shown below is a summary of a report by a firm of management consultants on the sales potential and production costs of the new cassette.
Sales potential: The sales volume is difficult to predict and will vary with the price, but it is reasonable to assume that at a selling price of £10 per cassette, sales would be between 7500 and 10 000 units per month. Alternatively; if the selling price was reduced to £9 per cassette, sales would be between 12 000 and 18 000 units per month.
Production costs: If production is maintained at or below 10 000 units per month, then variable manufacturing costs would be approximately £8.25 per cassette and fixed costs £12 125 per month. However, if production is planned to exceed 10 000 units per month, then variable costs would be reduced to £7.75 per cassette, but the fixed costs would increase to £16 125 per month.
Mr Belle has been charged £2000 for the report by the management consultants and, in addition, he has incurred £3000 development costs on the new cassette.
If Mr Belle decides to produce and sell the new cassette it will be necessary for him to use factory premises which he owns, but are leased to a colleague for a rental of £400 per month. Also he will resign from his current post in an electronics firm where he is earning a salary of £1000 per month.
Required:
(a) Identify in the question an example of
(i) an opportunity cost,
(ii) a sunk cost.
(b) Making whatever calculations you consider appropriate, analyse the report from the consultants and advise Mr Belle of the potential profitability of the alternatives shown in .the report.
Any assumptions considered necessary or matters which may require further investigation or comment should be clearly stated.

A division within Rhine Autos purchased a machine three years ago for £180 000. Depreciation using the straight line basis, assuming a life of six years and with no salvage value, has been recorded each year in the financial accounts. The present written-down value of the equipment is £90 000 and it has a remaining life of three years. Management is considering replacing this machine with a new machine that will reduce the variable operating costs. The new machine will cost £70 000 and will have an expected life of three years with no scrap value. The variable operating costs are £3 per unit of output for the old machine and £2 per unit for the new machine. It is expected that both machines will be operated at a capacity of 20 000 units per annum. The sales revenues from the output of both machines will therefore be identical. The current disposal or sale value of the old machine is £40 000 and it will be zero in three years time.
Aug 29, 2021 | Uncategorized
CASE A
One of the divisions within Rhine Autos is currently negotiating with another supplier regarding outsourcing component A that it manufactures. The division currently manufactures 10 000 units per annum of the component. The costs currently assigned to the components are as follows:

Total costs

|
The above costs are expected to remain unchanged in the foreseeable future if the Rhine Autos division continues to manufacture the components. The supplier has offered to supply 10 000 components per annum at price of £30 per unit guaranteed for a minimum of three years. If Rhine Autos outsources component A the direct labour force currently employed in producing the components will be made redundant. No redundancy costs will be incurred. Direct materials and variable overheads are avoidable if component A is outsourced. Fixed manufacturing overhead costs would be reduced by £10 000 per annum but non-manufacturing costs would remain unchanged. Assume initially that the capacity that is required for component A has no alternative use. Should the Division of Rhine Autos make or buy the component?
CASE B
Assume now that the extra capacity that will be made available from outsourcing component A can be used to manufacture and sell 10 000 units of part B at a price of £34 per unit. All of the labour force required to manufacture component A would be used to make part B. The variable manufacturing overheads, the fixed manufacturing overheads and non-manufacturing overheads would be the same as the costs incurred for manufacturing component A. The materials required to manufacture component A would norbe required but additional materials required for making part B would cost £13 per unit. Should Rhine Autos outsource component A?

The Euro Company is a wholesaler who sells its products to retailers throughout Europe. Euro’s headquarters is in Brussels. The company has adopted a regional structure with each region consisting of 3-5 sales territories. Each region has its own regional office and a warehouse which distributes the goods directly to the customers. Each sales territory also has an office where the marketing staff are located. The Scandinavian region consists of three sales territories with offices located in Stockholm, Oslo and Helsinki. The budgeted results for the next quarter are as follows:

Adapting the obsolete materials for use as a substitute for a sub-assembly that is regularly used within the firm. Details of the extra work and materials required are as follows:
|
Material C
|
1000 units
|
|
Direct labour:
|
|
|
4000 hours unskilled
|
|
|
1000 hours semi-skilled
|
|
|
4000 hours highly skilled
|
9000 hours
|
1200 units of the sub-assembly are regularly used per quarter, at a cost of £900 per unit. The adaptation of material XY would reduce the quantity of the sub-assembly purchased from outside the firm to 900 units for the next quarter only. However, since the volume purchased would be reduced, some discount would be lost, and the price of those purchased from outside would increase to £950 per unit for that quarter.
Material C is not available externally, but is manufactured by Brown Ltd. The 1000 units required would be available from stocks, but would be produced as extra production. The standard cost per unit of material C would be as follows:
|
|

|

|
|
Highly skilled labour
|
£10 per direct labour hour
|
The unskilled labour is employed on a casual basis and sufficient labour can be acquired to exactly meet the production requirements. Semi-skilled labour is part of the permanent labour force, but the company has temporary excess supply of this type,of labour at the present time. Highly skilled labour is in short supply and cannot be increased significantly in the short term; this labour is presently engaged in meeting the demand for product L, which requires 4 hours of highly skilled labour. The contribution (sales less direct labour and material costs and variable overheads) from the sale of one unit of product L is £24.
Given this information, you are required to present cost information advising whether the stocks of material XY should be sold, converted into a specialized product.

A company is considering accepting a one-year contract which will require four skilled employees. The four skilled employees could be recruited on a one-year contract at a cost of £40 000, per employee. The employees would be supervised by an existing manager who earns £60 000 per annum. It is expected that super-vision of the contract would take 10% of the manager’s time.
Instead of recruiting new employees, the company could retrain some existing employees who currently earn £30 000 per year. The training would cost £15 000 in total. If these employees were used they would need to be replaced at a total cost of £100 000.

Acceptance of a contract
JB Limited is a small specialist manufacturer of electronic components and much of its output is used by the makers of aircraft for both civil and military purposes. One of the few aircraft manufacturers has offered a contract to JB Limited for the supply, over the next twelve months, of 400 identical components.
The data relating to the production of each component is as follows:
(i) Material requirements:
3 kg material M1 — see note 1 below
2 kg material P2 — see note 2 below
1 Part No. 678 — see note 3 below
(ii) Labour requirements: Each component would require five hours of skilled labour and five hours of semi-skilled. An employee possessing the necessary skills is available and is currently paid £5 per hour. A replacement would, however, have to be obtained at a rate of £4 per hour for the work which would otherwise be done by the skilled employee. The current rate for semi-skilled work is £3 per hour and an additional employee could be appointed for this work.
(iii) Overhead: JB Limited absorbs overhead by a machine hour rate, currently £20 per hour of which £7 is for variable overhead and £13 for fixed overhead. If this contract is undertaken it is estimated that fixed costs will increase for the duration of the contract by £3200. Spare machine capacity is available and each component would require four machine hours.
A price of £145 per component has been suggested by the large company which makes aircraft.
You are required to:
(a) State whether or not the contract should be accepted and support your conclusion with appropriate for presentation to management;
(b) comment briefly on three factors which management ought to consider and which may influence their decision.

Decision on which of two mutually exclusive contracts to accept
A company in the civil engineering industry with headquarters located 22 miles from London undertakes contracts anywhere in the United Kingdom.
The company has had its tender for a job in north-east England accepted at £288 000 and work is due to begin in March. However, the company has also been asked to undertake a contract on the south coast of England. The price offered for this contract is £352 000. Both of the contracts cannot be taken simultaneously because of constraints on staff site management personnel and on plant available. An escape clause enables the company to withdraw from the contract in the north-east, provided notice is given before the end of November and an agreed penalty of £28 000 is paid.
The following estimates have been submitted by the company’s quantity surveyor:

Required:
(a) Prepare, on a relevant cost basis, the lowest cost estimate that could be used as the basis for a quotation. Explain briefly your reasons for using each of the values in your estimate.
(b) There may be a possibility of repeat orders from EXE plc which would occupy part of normal production capacity. What factors need to be considered before quoting for this order?
(c) When an organisation identifies that it has a single production resource which is in short supply, but is used by more than one product, the optimum production plan is determined by ranking the products according to their contribution per unit of the scarce resource.
Using a numerical example of your own, reconcile this approach with the opportunity cost approach used in (a) above.

Apportionment of joint costs
The marketing director of your company has expressed concern about product X, which for some time has shown a loss, and has stated that some action will have to be taken. Product X is produced from material A which is one of two raw materials jointly produced by passing chemicals through a process.
Representative data for the process is as follows:
|
Output (kg):
|
|
|
Material A
|
10 000
|
|
Material B
|
30 000
|
|
Process B (£):
|
|
|
Raw material
|
83 600
|
|
Conversion costs
|
58 000
|
Joint costs are apportioned to the two raw materials according to the weight of output. Production costs incurred in converting material A into product X are £1.80 per kg of material A used. A yield of 90% is achieved. Product X is sold for £5.60 per kg. Material B is sold without further processing for £6.00 per kg.
Required:
(a) Calculate the profit/loss per kg of product X and material B, respectively.
(b) Comment upon the marketing director’s concern, advising him whether you consider any action should be taken.
(c) Demonstrate an alternative joint cost apportionment for product X an comment briefly upon this alternative method of apportionment.

A brain scan is normally carried out on machine type XR1: this task uses special X-ray plates costing £40 each and takes four hours of machine time. Because of the nature of the process, around 10% of the scans produce blurred and therefore useless results.
Required:
(a) Calculate the cost of a satisfactory brain scan on machine type XR1.
(b) Brain scans can also be done on machine type )CR50 and would take only 1.8 hours per scan with a reduced reject rate of 6%. However, the cost of the X-ray plates would be £55 per scan.
Required:
Advise which type should be used, assuming sufficient capacity is available on both types of machine.

(b) Jason travels to work by train to his 5-day week job. Instead of buying daily tickets he finds it cheaper to buy a quarterly season ticket which costs £188 for 13 weeks.
Debbie, an acquaintance, who also makes the same journey, suggests that they both travel in Jason’s car and offers to give him £120 each quarter towards his car expenses. Except for weekend travelling and using it for local college attendance near his home on three evenings each week to study for his CIMA Stage 2, the car remains in Jason’s garage.

Norvik Enterprises operate in the leisure and entertainment industry and one of its activities is to promote concerts at locations throughout Europe. The company is examining the viability of a concert in Stockholm. Estimated fixed costs are £60 000. These include the fees paid to perfomers, the hire of the venue and advertising costs. Variable costs consist of the cost of a pre-packed buffet which will be provided by a firm of caterers at a price, which is currently being negotiated, but it is likely to be in the region of £10 per ticket sold. The proposed price for the sale of a ticket is £20. The management of Norvic have requested the following information:
1. The number of tickets that must be sold to break-even (that is, the point at which there is neither a profit or loss).
2. How many tickets must be sold to earn £30 000 target profit?
3. What profit would result if 8000 tickets were sold?
4. What selling price would have to be charged to give a profit of £30 000 on sales of 8000 tickets, fixed costs of £60 000 and variable costs of £10 per ticket?
5. How many additional tickets must be sold to cover the extra cost of television advertising of £8000?

Tweed Ltd is a company engaged solely in the manufacture of jumpers, which are bought mainly for sporting activities. Present sales are direct to retailers, but in recent years there has been a steady decline in output because of increased foreign competition. In the-last trading year (2001) the accounting report indicated that the company produced the lowest profit for 10 years. The forecast for 2002 indicates that the present deterioration in profits is likely to continue. The company considers that a profit of £80 000 should be achieved to provide an adequate return on capital. The managing director has asked that a review be made of the present pricing and marketing policies. The marketing director has completed this review, and passes the proposals on to you for evaluation and recommendation, together with the profit and loss account for year ending 31 December 2001.

The information to be submitted to the managing director includes the following three proposals:
(i) To proceed on the basis of analyses of market research studies which indicate that the demand for the jumpers is such that 10% reduction in selling price would increase demand by 40%.
(ii) To proceed with an enquiry that the marketing director has had from a mail order company about the possibility of purchasing 50 000 units annually if the selling price is right. The mail order company would transport the jumpers from Tweed Ltd to its own warehouse, and no sales commission would be paid on these sales by Tweed Ltd. However, if an acceptable price can be negotiated, Tweed Ltd would be expected to contribute £60 000 per annum towards the cost of producing the mail order catalogue. It would also be necessary for Tweed Ltd to provide special additional packaging at a cost of £0.50 per jumper. The marketing director considers that in 2002 the sales from existing business would remain unchanged at 100 000 units, based on a selling price of £10 if the mail order contract is undertaken.
(iii) To proceed on the basis of a view by the marketing director that a 10% price reduction, together with a national advertising campaign costing £30 000 may increase sales to the maximum capacity of 160 000 jumpers.
Required:
(a) The calculation of break-even sales value based on the 2001 accounts.
(b) A financial evaluation of proposal (i) and a calculation of the number of units Tweed Ltd would require to sell at £9 each to earn the target profit of £80 000.
(c) A calculation of the minimum prices that would have to be quoted to the mail order company, first, to ensure that Tweed Ltd would, at least, break even on the mail order contract, secondly, to ensure that the same overall profit is earned as proposal (i) and, thirdly, to ensure that the overall target profit is earned.
(d) A financial evaluation of proposal (iii).
(i) to increase the price of bludgeons by 25%, in the expectation that the price elasticity of demand over this range of prices will be unity;
(ii) to make changes to the production process that would reduce the joint fixed costs by 12.5% and increase the variable costs of each product by 10%;
(iii) 6-introduce both of the above changes.

In 1995, Lidia, age 30, purchased a Series EE bond for $1,000. In 2012, she redeemed it and used all of the proceeds to pay for qualified education expenses of her daughter, who is her dependent. On redemption, she received $1,450, $975 of which is principal and $475 of which is interest. If Lidia”s modified adjusted gross income in 2012 is $90,000, how much, if any, of the proceeds are excludable? (Assume Lidia is a single mother filing as head of household.)
a. Correct. Because Lidia”s MAGI is over $87,850 in 2012, she cannot exclude any interest on redemption of the bond, even though it is used for qualified higher education expenses of her dependent child.
b. Incorrect. The full amount of interest, or $475, would be excludable if her MAGI were below $72,850.
c. Incorrect. The $975 is principal, which is not taxable regardless of MAGI.
d. Incorrect. The $1,000 is what Lidia paid for the bond; the proceeds do not reflect a recovery of her full investment.

Effect of an incentive scheme on company profits. You have been approached for your advice on the proposed introduction of an incentive scheme for the direct operatives in the final production department of a factory producing one standard product. This department the Finishing Shop. employs 30 direct operatives. all of whom are paid £8 per hour for a basic 410-hour week. with a guaranteed wage 01(3)3 per week. When necessary. overtime is worked up to a maximum of 15 hours per week per operative and is paid at time rate plus one-half. It is the opinion of the personnel manager that no more direct operatives could be recruited for this department.
An analysis of recent production returns from the Finishing Shop indicates that the current average output is approximately to units oldie standard product per productive man-hour. The work study manager has conducted an appraisal of the working methods in the Finishing Shop and suggests that it would be reasonable to expect operatives to process S units of the product per man-hour and that a piecework scheme he introduced in which the direct operatives arc paid 11.40 for each unit processed. It is anticipated that. when necessary. Operatives would continue to work overtime up to the previous specified limit, although as the operatives would be on piece work no premium would be paid. Next year”s budgeted production for the factory varies from a minimum of 7000 units per week to a maximum of 12000 units per week with the most frequent budgeted weekly output being 9600 units-The expected selling price of the product next year is £11 per unit and the budgeted variable production cost of the incomplete product passed into the Finishing Shop amounts to £8 per unit. Variable production overheads in the Finishing Shop. excluding the overtime premium of the direct operatives, are budgeted to be £0.48 per direct labour hour worked. and it is considered that variable overheads130mile directly with productive hours worked. Direct material costs are not incurred by the Finishing Shop. The fixed overheads incurred by the factory amount in total to D9000 per week. Stocks of work in progress and finished goods are not carried.
Required:
(i) Calculate the effect on the company”s budgeted weekly profits of the proposed incentive scheme in the Finishing Shop. (Calculation should be to the nearest 1.)
(ii) Explain the reasons for the changes in the weekly budgeted profits caused by the proposed incentive scheme.

This exercise will review closing entries for a merchandising enterprise
Closing entries are recorded at the end of an accounting period to prepare the temporary accounts for the subsequent accounting period. For example, assume the calendar year is the accounting period for a company. At the end of 2014, the Sales account balance is closed so that the Sales account begins the year of 2015 with a zero balance. Therefore, at the end of 2015, the balance in the Sales account will reflect sales that took place in that single year (2015).
Closing entries also update the balance of the Retained Earnings account.
Instructions
Refer to the facts in Exercise 5-5 and its Solution. Prepare the closing entries for Steve Bradley Golf Products, Inc. for the year ending December 31, 2014.

Bank A of Illustration 5.1 has made a risk assessment of the borrower and is confident that there is a 95 per cent probability of the borrower repaying the principal and interest as scheduled. It also makes a conservative estimate that in case of default, the bank can recover about 85 per cent of the principal and interest due. The bank feels that it cannot quote a rate lower than 14 per cent on the loan. What should be the rate it quotes to the borrower to include the default risk? Let us assume that the bank”s cost of funds is 12 per cent and the servicing costs are at 0.25 per cent.
Aug 29, 2021 | Uncategorized
If the bank in the Illustrations 5.1 and 5.2 desires to give its shareholders a return of 20 per cent, its assets amount to Rs. 10,000 crore, and its capital amounts to Rs. 1,000 crore, what should be the profit margin it should target for the borrower seeking Rs. 50 crore of credit, assuming that its cost of funds and servicing costs remain at the levels described above, and the risk premium is 0.731 as calculated above?
Desired return = 0.20 3 1000/10000 = 0.02
Therefore, the bank should target a minimum return or profit of 2 per cent on the transaction. The bank already has proposed a return of 3 per cent which is profitable for the bank.

Business decisions involve a choice among alternative courses of action. In making such decisions, management ordinarily considers both financial and nonfinancial information. The process used to identify the financial data that change under alternative courses of action is called incremental analysis.
- Incremental analysis involves not only identifying relevant revenues and costs, but also determining the probable effects of the decision on future earnings.
- Data for incremental analysis involves estimates and uncertainty.
- Gathering data may involve market analysts, engineers, and accountants.

Geis Company produces 40,000 printers per month, which is 80% of plant capacity. Variable manufacturing costs are $80 per unit, and fixed manufacturing costs are $1,200,000, or $30 per unit. The printers are normally sold directly to retailers at $150 each. Geis has an offer from a foreign wholesaler to purchase an additional 4,000 printers at $100 per unit. Acceptance of the offer would not affect normal sales of the product, and the additional units can be manufactured without increasing plant capacity. What is the amount of increase (decrease) to net income if Geis accepts the order?

King Enterprises is a research analysis firm for television advertisements. On January 1, 2013, management is considering updating its computer system with new software that is estimated to cut labor costs by 10 percent. King”s labor costs for the current year are estimated to be $400,000 and would be expected to remain the same the following two years. In addition, the new software has a filing system that will allow for a decrease in the storage of the hardcopy of documents within the facilities by 30 percent. The space opened up from the storage of documents will be used to decrease rent expense by $1,000 per month. If the new software costs $70,000 and is expected to be useful for three years, should King Enterprises purchase it?

Indicate whether each of the following is true (T) or false (F) in the space provided.
|
The budget itself and the administration of the budget are entirely accounting responsibilities.
|
|
A primary benefit of budgeting is that it provides definite objectives for evaluating subsequent performance at each level of responsibility.
|
|
If a budget is effective enough, it can be a substitute for management.
|
|
Management acceptance of budgets occurs more frequently when the flow of input data is from the highest level of responsibility to the lowest level of responsibility.
|
|
Effective budgeting depends on an organizational structure in which authority and responsibility over all phases of operations are clearly defined.
|
|
The budget committee is usually made up of people outside the company in order to decrease bias.
|
|
Financial planning models and statistical and mathematical techniques may be used in forecasting sales.
|
|
Long-range planning usually emphasizes meeting annual profit objectives.
|
|
Long-range plans contain considerably less detail than short-term budgets.
|
|
The sales budget is derived from the production budget.
|
|
The production budget shows unit production data as well as cost data.
|
|
The direct materials budget is derived from the direct materials units required for production plus desired ending direct materials units less beginning direct materials units.
|
|
The direct labor budget contains only quantity data (hours) which are derived from the production budget.
|
|
The manufacturing overhead budget shows the expected manufacturing overhead costs.
|
|
The cash budget contains three sections (cash receipts, cash disbursements, and financing) and the beginning and ending cash balances.
|
|
In order to develop a budgeted balance sheet, the previous year”s balance sheet is needed.
|
|
One difference between the master budget of a merchandising company and a manufacturing company is that the purchases budget is used instead of a production budget.
|
|
In service enterprises, the critical factor in budgeting is coordinating materials and equipment with anticipated services.
|
|
Not-for-profit organizations usually budget on the basis of cash flows (expenditures and receipts) rather than on a revenue and expense basis.
|
|
For governmental units, the budget must be strictly followed and overspending is often illegal.

Morgan Inc. is a small company that manufactures baseball caps. For the past several years, the company has used a standard cost accounting system. Cole prepares monthly income statements for management with variances reported within the statement. In April 2013, 67,500 caps were produced. There were no finished caps on hand at either April 1 or April 30. The selling price per cap was $10.00. The following standard and actual cost data applied to the month of April when normal capacity was 14,000 direct labor hours.

Overhead is applied on the basis of direct labor hours. At normal capacity, budgeted fixed overhead costs were $49,000 and budgeted variable costs were $21000.
Instructions
(a) Compute the total. price, and quantity variances for (1) materials, (2) labor, and (3) the total, controllable, and volume variances for manufacturing overhead (assuming no beginning or ending material balances).
(b) Journalize the entries to record the variances and the completion and sale of the caps.

Indicate whether each of the following is true (T) or false (F) in the space provided.
|
In concept, standards and budgets are essentially the same.
|
|
Standards may be useful in setting selling prices for finished goods.
|
|
Ideal standards represent an efficient level of performance under normal operating conditions.
|
|
The materials price standard is based on the purchasing department”s best estimate of the cost of raw materials.
|
|
The direct labor quantity standard is based on current wage rates adjusted for anticipated changes such as cost of living adjustments included in many union contracts.
|
|
The standard predetermined overhead rate is based on an expected standard activity index.
|
|
An unfavorable variance suggests efficiencies in incurring costs and in using materials and labor.
|
|
The materials price variance is the difference between actual quantity of materials purchased times the standard cost and the standard quantity of materials times the standard cost.
|
|
The materials quantity variance is the difference between the standard cost times the actual quantity of materials used and the standard cost times the standard quantity used.
|
|
The materials price variance is normally caused by the production department.
|
|
Material quantity variances can be caused by inexperienced workers, faulty machinery, or carelessness.
|
|
The labor quantity variance is the difference between the actual rate times the standard hours and the standard rate times the standard hours.
|
|
The use of an inexperienced worker instead of an experienced employee can result in a favorable labor price variance but probably an unfavorable quantity variance.
|
|
An increase in the cost of indirect manufacturing costs such as fuel and maintenance may cause an overhead variance.
|
|
All variances should be reported to appropriate levels of management as soon as possible.
|
|
In using variance reports, top management normally looks carefully at every variance.
|
|
A standard cost system may be used with either job order or process costing.
|
|
Under a standard cost accounting system, a favorable labor price variance will result in a credit to Labor Price Variance.
|
|
The use of standard costs in inventory costing is prohibited in financial statements.
|
|
The overhead controllable variance is the difference between the actual overhead costs incurred and the budgeted costs for the standard hours allowed.

|
|
|
|
|
In 2013, Fastchip manufactured 20,000 units of the FC-PC and 15,000 units of the FC-laptop. The overhead rate of $10 per direct labor hour was determined by dividing the total expected manufacturing overhead of $3,400,000 by the total direct labor hours (340,000) for the two computers.
The gross profit and gross profit rate on the computers were: FC-PC $460 ($2,000 − $1,540) and 23% ($460/$2,000); and FC-laptop $740 ($4,200 − $3,460) and 17.62% ($740/$4,200). Because of the lower profit margin on the FC-laptop, management is considering phasing out the FC-laptop and increasing the production of the FC-PC.
Before finalizing its decision, management asks the controller of Fastchip to prepare an analysis using activity-based costing. The controller accumulates the following information about overhead for the year ended December 31, 2013:

In 2014, Schultz manufactured 25,000 units of the Royale and 10,000 units of the Majestic. The overhead rate of $38 per direct labor hour was determined by dividing total expected manufacturing overhead of $7,600,000 by the total direct labor hours (200,000) for the two models.
Under traditional costing, the gross profit on the models was Royale $552 or ($1,600 – $1,048), and Majestic $590 or ($1,300 – $710). Because of this difference, management is considering phasing out the Royale model and increasing the production of the Majestic model.
Before finalizing its decision, management asks Schultz”s controller to prepare an analysis using activity-based costing (ABC). The controller accumulates the following information about overhead for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Building a kayak using the composite method is a very labor-intensive process. In the fabrication department, the kayaks go through several steps as employees carefully place layers of Kevlar®in a mold and then use resin to fuse together the layers. The excess resin is removed with a vacuum process, and the upper shell and lower shell are removed from the molds and assembled. The seat, hatch, and other components are added in the finishing department.
At the beginning of April,Current Designshad 30 kayaks in process in the fabrication department. Rick Thrune, the production manager, estimated that about 80% of the material costs had been added to these boats, which were about 50% complete with respect to the conversion costs. The cost of this inventory had been calculated to be $8,400 in materials and $9,000 in conversion costs.
During April, 72 boats were started. At the end of the month, the 35 kayaks in the ending inventory had 20% of the materials and 40% of the conversion costs already added to them.
A review of the accounting records for April showed that materials with a cost of $17,500 had been requisitioned by this department and that the conversion costs for the month were $39,600.
Instructions
Complete a production cost report for April 2014 for the fabrication department using the weighted-average method.

Florida Beach Company manufactures sunscreen lotion, called Surtan, in 11-ounce plastic bottles. Surtan is sold in a competitive market. As a result, management is very cost-conscious. Surtan is manufactured through two processes: mixing and filling. Materials are entered at the beginning of each process, and labor and manufacturing overhead occur uniformly throughout each process. Unit costs are based on the cost per gallon of Surtan using the weighted-average costing approach.
On June 30, 2014, Mary Ritzman, the chief accountant for the past 20 years, opted to take early retirement. Her replacement, Joe Benili, had extensive accounting experience with motels in the area but only limited contact with manufacturing accounting. During July, Joe correctly accumulated the following production quantity and cost data for the Mixing Department.
Production quantities:Work in process, July 1, 8,000 gallons 75% complete; started into production 100,000 gallons; work in process, July 31, 5,000 gallons 20% complete. Materials are added at the beginning of the process.
Production costs:Beginning work in process $88,000, comprised of $21,000 of materials costs and $67,000 of conversion costs; incurred in July: materials $573,000, conversion costs $765,000.
Joe then prepared a production cost report on the basis of physical units started into production. His report showed a production cost of $14.26 per gallon of Surtan. The management of Florida Beach was surprised at the high unit cost. The president comes to you, as Mary”s top assistant, to review Joe”s report and prepare a correct report if necessary.
Instructions
With the class divided into groups, answer the following questions.
(a)Show how Joe arrived at the unit cost of $14.26 per gallon of Surtan.
(b)What error(s) did Joe make in preparing his production cost report?
(c)Prepare a correct production cost report for July.

Diane Barone was a good friend of yours in high school and is from your home town. While you chose to major in accounting when you both went away to college, she majored in marketing and management. You have recently been promoted to accounting manager for the Snack Foods Division of Melton Enterprises, and your friend was promoted to regional sales manager for the same division of Melton. Diane recently telephoned you. She explained that she was familiar with job cost sheets, which had been used by the Special Projects division where she had formerly worked. She was, however, very uncomfortable with the production cost reports prepared by your division. She emailed you a list of her particular questions:
- Since Melton occasionally prepares snack foods for special orders in the Snack Foods Division, why don”t we track costs of the orders separately?
- What is an equivalent unit?
- Why am I getting four production cost reports? Isn”t there one Work in Process account?
Instructions
Prepare a memo to Diane. Answer her questions, and include any additional information you think would be helpful. You may write informally, but do use proper grammar and punctuation.

Indicate whether each of the following statements is true or false.
- Continuous process manufacturing often results in a reduction of inventory.
- Companies that use just-in-time processing complete and store finished goods all the time to meet rush orders from customers.
- A major benefit of just-in-time processing is production cost savings from the improved flow of goods through the processes.
- An ABC system is similar to traditional costing systems in accounting for manufacturing costs but differs in regard to period costs.
- The primary benefit of ABC is more accurate and meaningful costs.
- In recent years, the amount of direct labor used in many industries has greatly increased and total overhead costs have significantly decreased.
JIT manufacturing is dedicated to having the right amounts of materials, parts, or products just as they are needed.
ABC focuses on the activities performed in producing a product. It recognizes that to have accurate and meaningful cost data, more than one basis of allocating costs to products is needed.

Sam Snead has formulated the following list of statements about contemporary developments in managerial accounting.
- Just-in-time processing results in a push approach; that is, raw materials are pushed through each process.
- A primary objective of just-in-time processing is to eliminate all manufacturing inventories.
- A major disadvantage of just-in-time processing is lower product quality.
- A primary benefit of activity-based costing is more accurate and meaningful product costing.
- A major advantage of activity-based costing is that it uses a single unit-level basis, such as direct labor or machine hours, to allocate overhead.

Remington Shipping, Inc. is contemplating the use of process costing to track the costs of its operations. The operation consists of three segments (departments): receiving, shipping, and delivery. Containers are received at Remington”s docks and sorted according to the ship they will be carried on. The containers are loaded onto a ship, which carries them to the appropriate port of destination. The containers are then off-loaded and delivered to the receiving company.
Remington Shipping wants to begin using process costing in the shipping department. Direct materials represent the fuel costs to run the ship, and “Containers in transit” represents work in process. Listed below is information about the shipping department”s first month”s activity.

Huegel Hollow Resort has ordered 20 rotomolded kayaks fromCurrent Designs.Each kayak will be formed in the rotomolded oven, cooled, and then the excess plastic trimmed away. Then, the hatches, seat, ropes, and bungees will be attached to the kayak.
Dave Thill, the kayak plant manager, knows that manufacturing each kayak requires 54 pounds of polyethylene powder and a finishing kit (rope, seat, hardware, etc.). The polyethylene powderused in these kayaks costs $1.50 per pound, and the finishing kits cost $170 each. Each kayak will use two kinds of labor: 2 hours of more-skilled type I labor from people who run the oven and trim the plastic, and 3 hours of less-skilled type II labor from people who attach the hatches and seat and other hardware. The type I employees are paid $15 per hour, and the type II employees are paid $12 per hour. For purposes of this problem, assume that overhead is allocated to all jobs at a rate of 150% of direct labor costs.
Instructions
Determine the total cost of the Huegel Hollow order and the cost of each individual kayak in the order. Identify costs as direct materials, direct labor, or manufacturing overhead.

Khan Products Company uses a job order cost system. For a number of months, there has been an ongoing rift between the sales department and the production department concerning a special-order product, TC-1. TC-1 is a seasonal product that is manufactured in batches of 1,000 units. TC-1 is sold at cost plus a markup of 40% of cost.
The sales department is unhappy because fluctuating unit production costs significantly affect selling prices. Sales personnel complain that this has caused excessive customer complaints and the loss of considerable orders for TC-1.
The production department maintains that each job order must be fully costed on the basis of the costs incurred during the period in which the goods are produced. Production personnel maintain that the only real solution to the problem is for the sales department to increase sales in the slack periods.
Andrea Parley, president of the company, asks you as the company accountant to collect quarterly data for the past year on TC-1. From the cost accounting system, you accumulate the following production quantity and cost data.
Instructions
With the class divided into groups, answer the following questions.
(a)What manufacturing cost element is responsible for the fluctuating unit costs? Why?
(b)What is your recommended solution to the problem of fluctuating unit cost?
(c)Restate the quarterly data on the basis of your recommended solution.

LRF Printing performs printing services for many different corporate clients. Although LRF bids most jobs, some jobs, particularly new ones, are negotiated on a “cost-plus” basis. Cost-plus means that the buyer is willing to pay the actual cost plus a return (profit) on these costs to LRF.
Alice Reiley, controller for LRF, has recently returned from a meeting where LRF”s president stated that he wanted her to find a way to charge more costs to any project that was on a cost-plus basis. The president noted that the company needed more profits to meet its stated goals this period. By charging more costs to the cost-plus projects and therefore fewer costs to the jobs that were bid, the company should be able to increase its profit for the current year.
Alice knew why the president wanted to take this action. Rumors were that he was looking for a new position and if the company reported strong profits, the president”s opportunities would be enhanced. Alice also recognized that she could probably increase the cost of certain jobs by changing the basis used to allocate manufacturing overhead.
Instructions

(b)What are the ethical issues in this situation?
(c)What would you do if you were Alice Reiley?

Small Business Planner, Plan Your Business link, review the material under “Get Ready.” Answer the following questions.
(a)What are some of the characteristics required of a small business owner?
(b)What are the top 10 reasons given for business failure?
Aug 29, 2021 | Uncategorized
After graduating, you might decide to start a small business. As discussed in this chapter, owners of any business need to know how to calculate the cost of their products. In fact, many small businesses fail because they don”t accurately calculate their product costs, so they don”t know if they are making a profit or losing money—until it”s too late.
Suppose that you decide to start a landscape business. You use an old pickup truck that you”ve fully paid for. You store the truck and other equipment in your parents’ barn, and you store trees and shrubs on their land. Your parents will not charge you for the use of these facilities for the first two years, but beginning in the third year they will charge a reasonable rent. Your mother helps you by answering phone calls and providing customers with information. She doesn”t charge you for this service, but she plans on doing it for only your first two years in business. In pricing your services, should you include charges for the truck, the barn, the land, and your mother”s services when calculating your product cost? The basic arguments for and against are as follows.
YES:If you don”t include charges for these costs, your costs are understated and your profitability is overstated.
NO:At this point, you are not actually incurring costs related to these activities; therefore, you shouldn”t record charges.

Indicate whether each of the following statements is true or false.
- A law firm is likely to use process costing for major lawsuits.
- A manufacturer of paintballs is likely to use process costing.
- Both job order and process costing determine product costs at the end of a period of time, rather than when a product is completed.
- Process costing does not keep track of manufacturing overhead.
Use job order costing in situations where unit costs are high, unit volume is low, and products are unique.
Use process costing when there is a large volume of relatively homogeneous products.

Ruth Company manufactures ZEBO through two processes: blending and bottling. In June, raw materials used were Blending $18,000 and Bottling $4,000. Factory labor costs were Blending $12,000 and Bottling $5,000. Manufacturing overhead costs were Blending $6,000 and Bottling $2,500. The company transfers units completed at a cost of $19,000 in the Blending Department to the Bottling Department. The Bottling Department transfers units completed at a cost of $11,000 to Finished Goods. Journalize the assignment of these costs to the two processes and the transfer of units as appropriate.
In process cost accounting, keep separate work in process accounts for each process.
When the costs are assigned to production, debit the separate work in process accounts.

A manufacturing company produces and sells products P, Q and R. It has an available inactive-hour capacity of one-lakh hours, interchangeable among the three products. Presently, the company produces and sells 20,000 units of P and 15,000 units each of Q and R. The unit-selling price of the three products are Rs. 25, Rs. 32 and Rs. 42 for P, Q and R, respectively. With this price structure and the aforesaid sales mix, the company is incurring loss. The total expenditure exclusive of fixed charges (presently, Rs. 5 per unit) is Rs. 13.75 lakhs. The unit cost ratio among the products P, Q and R is 4: 6: 7. Since the company desires to improve its profitability without changing its cost and price structures, it has been considering the following three mixes so as to be within its total available capacity.
You are required to compute the quantum of loss now incurred and advise the most profitable mix which could be considered by the company.

- Total sales potential in units is limited.
- Total sales potential in value is limited.
- Raw material is in short supply.
- Production capacity (in terms of machine hours) is the limiting factor.
II:Assuming that raw material is the key factor, availability of which is 25,000 kgs and the maximum sales potential of each product being 4,000 units, find out the product mix which will yield the maximum profit.

During the current year, the manufacturer anticipates that his fixed charges will increase by 10% and rates of direct material and direct labour will increase by 7% and 9%, respectively. He has no option of increasing the selling price. Under this situation, he obtains an offer of an order equal to 20% of his capacity. This customer is a special customer.
What minimum price will you recommend for acceptance to ensure an overall profit of Rs. 1,81,000?

X ltd—a public limited company—has a chain of marketing centres across the country to sell its own products. The directors of the company are confronted with the problem—whether to continue business at Kanpur and Nagpur or to close these units and letting out the premises at an annual rental of Rs. 6,000 for Kanpur and Rs. 8,000 for Nagpur, which have been offered by A Ltd and B Ltd who are engaged in the same type of business as that of X Ltd. There is no connection between A Ltd and B Ltd and the acceptance of offer of one company does not necessarily involve the acceptance of the other.
The condensed P&L A/c of the two marketing centres for the year ended 31 December 2009 is shown as follows:

The average stock at the cost of the two marketing centres is:
Kanpur: Rs. 30,000.
Nagpur: Rs. 50,000.
If business at either marketing unit is continued, the trading results are expected to remain the same in the year 2009. The company can invest its surplus funds to yield an interest at 5% per annum. It is unlikely that there will be any saving in the head-office-administration costs expecting a reduction in the audit fee and a saving in the travelling expenses of the head office staff at Rs. 200 per marketing unit per annum.
Should, in your opinion as a cost accountant, either or both of the premises be let out at the rents offered. Give reasons for your recommendations.

|
|
Administrative & Selling Overheads
|

|
50% of factory overheads are variable and 50% of administrative and selling overheads are fixed. The selling price of A is Rs. 12 per unit and B is Rs. 20 per unit.
The direct material and labour ratio for product A is 2:3 and for B is 4:5. For both the products, the selling price is 400% of direct labour. The factory overheads are charged in the ratio of direct labour, and administrative and selling overheads are recovered at a flat rate of Rs. 2 per unit of A and Rs. 3 per unit of B.
Due to a fall in the demand of the above products, the company has a plan to diversify and make the product C using 40% capacity. It has been estimated that for C the direct material and direct labour will be Rs. 2.50 and Rs. 3 per unit, respectively. Other Variable Costs will be the same as applicable to product A. The selling price of product C is Rs. 14 per unit and the production will be 30,000 units.
Assuming that 60% capacity is used for manufacturing A and B:
- Calculate the present cost and profit.
- Calculate the costs and profit after diversification.
- Give your recommendation as to whether to diversify or not.

Using the cash flow statement to spot earnings quality problems
An article in BusinessWeek described how Bob Olstein, a successful stock analyst, predicts that the prices of stocks issued by firms that “engage in aggressive accounting practices” will go down, stating that other “investors have unrealistic expectations of the earnings potential.” He cites Mattel as an example by noting that big changes in net receivables, inventories, and deferred income taxes, as well as foreign currency translation gains that produced no cash, accounted for most of Mattel”s earnings growth. The company”s debt also jumped “from $440 million to $630 million in about two years.”
REQUIRED:
a. Explain how the statement of cash flows, especially if prepared under the indirect format, can be used to identify “quality of earnings” and “earnings persistence” problems.
b. Specifically describe how the information mentioned above about Mattel was used to indicate these kinds of problems.
c. Do you think that it is possible to identify over- and undervalued stocks by identifying firms that use aggressive accounting practices?

Equity in unconsolidated affiliates
As of January 3, 2010, The Washington Post Company held significant, but not controlling, interest in Bowater Mercy Paper Company and other companies. These investments totaled $54.7 million on the company”s 2009 balance sheet. In its 2009 annual report, The Washington Post Company included a statement of cash flows, presented in the indirect form, which covered the three-year period of 2009, 2008, and 2007. A line item was included in the operating section of that statement, titled “equity in losses of affiliates, net of distributions,” and the dollar amounts for this item for 2009, 2008, and 2007 were $30.1 million, $9.1 million, and $(3.8) million, respectively.
REQUIRED:
a. Briefly describe the accounting methods used for unconsolidated affiliates, in which a company has a “significant influence.”
b. Explain why the dollar amounts were added to net income on the statement of cash flows.
c. What does the phrase “net of distributions” mean?
d. On the same statement of cash flows, The Washington Post Company reported another line item in the operating section, titled “net loss on sale or write-down of property, plant, and equipment,” which included dollar amounts for 2009, 2008, and 2007 of $19.7 million, $4.5 million, and $3.1 million, respectively. Describe the transactions that led to these disclosures and explain why the three-dollar amounts are added to net income in the calculation of net cash flow from operating activities. Would these amounts appear on any of the other financial statements, and if so, which one?

Misunderstandings in the financial press
The financial press often uses the term cash flow to refer to a company”s “net income + depreciation.” In a well-known article in Barron”s titled “No Substitutions, Please,” Intel was criticized for relying heavily on a number the company called “cash earnings,” computed by adding amortization of intangible assets to net earnings.
REQUIRED:

However, the marketing department of the company considers that the maximum units of the components the market can take at the proposed price is 1,40,000 only.
The production manager of division Y is ready to purchase 60,000 units of the component at a price of Rs. 2.25 per unit, as he feels that the component can be manufactured in his division at that price.
The manager of division X feels that rather than selling at Rs. 2.25 per unit, he would restrict the production in his division to 1,40,000 units only. By this, he feels that he could reduce Rs. 80,000 in stocks, Rs. 30,000 in debtors and Rs. 90,000 in plant and also reduce selling expenses by Rs. 40,000.
You are required to work out whether 60,000 units should be produced for a transfer to Division Y at Rs. 2.25.

Wanna manufacturing company sells the following three products:
X @ Rs. 8 per unit, Y @ Rs. 2 per unit and Z @ Rs. 3 per unit.
While product X contributes 20% its revenue in Fixed Cost and profit, product Y contributes 10% and product Z contributes 60%. The company earned a net profit of Rs. 50,000 last year by selling 50,000 units of X, 1,50,000 units of Y and 60,000 units of Z.
It is believed that the profit picture can be improved by eliminating product Y and concentrating the sales efforts on products X and Z. There is an opportunity to increase the sale of product X to 70,000 units, but product Z will probably be sold at the same volume next year.
As a Cost Accountant of the company, give your suggestion regarding the elimination of product Y.

The General Manager suggests to reduce the selling price by 5% and expects to achieve an additional volume of 5%. The more intensive manufacturing programme will involve additional costs of Rs. 50,000 for production planning. It will also be necessary to open an additional sales office at the cost of Rs. 1,00,000 per annum.
The Sales Manager, on the other hand, suggests to increase the selling price by 10% which, it is estimated, will reduce the sales volume by 10%. At the same time, a saving in the manufacturing overheads and general overheads of Rs. 50,000 and Rs. 1,00,000 per annum, respectively, is expected on this reduced volume.

The fixed overheads would continue to be incurred even when the component is bought out, although there would be a reduction to the extent to Rs. 1,50,000 following the savings in the salaries of supervisory personnel that could be avoided if the company opts to ‘buy’ rather than ‘make.’
- Should the part be made or bought considering that the present facility when released following a buying decision would remain idle?
- In case the released facility can be rented to another manufacturer for Rs. 50,000, as there is a good demand for spare facility, what would be the position?

Requirements
- Analyse the cash flows from:
- Operating activities
- Investing activities, and
- Financing activities
- There is extreme volatility in the reported net income but the net cash provided by operating activities is very steady in comparison. Why?
- Higher depreciation, year after year since 1997 means an expanding business which means higher net income. But this is not the case with Intel during 2002 and 2001. Why? Offer possible explanations.
- In 2001 and 2002 net cash provided by operating activities is very high despite low net income. But that is not the case with the year 2000. Why?
- There is hardly any cash outflow towards investing activities during 2001. Does it mean that the company is not pursuing growth path?
- Despite lower net income dividend outgo is rising. Should it? How is it possible? Stretch your imagination.
- Refer to the earlier analysis of the CFSs of the company up to the year 1999 carried out in this chapter. Our prediction there on the ability of the company to generate positive cash flows from operations in future does not seem to have materialized on an analysis of 2000, 2001 and 2002 CFSs of the company in the sense that it is lacking expected growth. Why?
- You may like to check/not find answers to some questions. Go to the Web site of the company and study the management discussion and analysis report for the purpose.
- What do you learn from this case?
- Draft a crisp 3-4-page report.
