Q

What is meant by highly probable criteria

A
  • Management are committed to plan to sell
  • Actively seeking a buyer
  • Asset is marketed at a reasonable price relation to fair value
  • Sale expected to be completed in one year of classification
  • Unlikely for significant changes to the plan or withdrawal of sale
22
Q

Can an asset/disposal group still be classified as held for sale after one year

A
  • Can be
  • IF entity can demonstrate the delay was caused by events beyond control
23
Q

At what value should an asset identified as held for sale be accounted for

A

The lower of
- Carrying amount
- Fair Value - Cost of disposal

24
What are the adjustements made for assets classsfied as held for sale?
- Any loss shown on SPL - No further depreciation should be charged -Any gain or loss on sale recorded in SPL like a normal disposal
25
Why is no further depreciation charged for an asset classified as held for sale?
It's value will be recoverable through its sale rather than its use
26
Where are assets held for sale listed on the Statement of financial position?
Disclosed separately In it's own line Below current assets
27
What is the definition of discontinued operation?
Component of an entity that has been discontinued or classified as held for sale and - represents a separate major line of business - is part of a single plan to dispose of major line - is a subsidiary acquired with a view to resale
28
What is meant by component of an entity
Has operations and cash flows that can be clearly distinguished from the rest of the entity - operationally and financial reporting purposes
29
What are the disclosures needed for NCA held for sale and discontinued operations?
- Single amount in the statement of Profit or loss comprising of - Post-tax profit or loss of discontinued operations - Post-tax gain or loss recognised on measurement to fair value - costs of disposal
30
How should the analysis of disclosure of NCA held for sale and discontinued operations be broken down?
- Revenue, expenses and pre-tax profit or loss - Related income tax expense - Post-tax gain or loss on disposal of asset or measurement to fair value - cost of disposal
31
Define Inventories
Assets that are: - Held for sale in the ordinary course of business (finished goods) - In the process of production for sales (work in progress) - Raw materials or supplies for the production process
32
How is inventory measured?
At the lower of - cost or - net realisable value (NRV)
33
What are the components of the cost of inventories?
- Cost of purchase (Purchase price - discounts, import duties or taxes, directly attributable costs of delivery and installation) - Cost of Conversion (costs directly related to units of production of material, labour, overheads) - Other costs (bringing inventory to current location and condition)
34
What are fixed production overheads??
Indirect costs such as the cost of factory management and administration remain relatively constant - based on normal level of production
35
What are variable production overheads?
Include indirect materials and labour costs and vary with production
36
What are the estimation methods of finding the approximate value of stock?
Standard cost: normal levels of materials and supplies, labour - should be regularly reviewed and revised Retail Method: cost is determined by reducing the value of inventory by the percentage of gross margin
37
What are the estimation techniques used to approximate the cost for interchangeable items?
First in, First out Weighted average cost
38
What is the FIFO method of approximating inventory cost?
Calculation of cost is on the basis that the quantities in hand represent the most recent purchases/production -older items are used first
39
What is the weighted average cost approximation method for the cost of inventories?
Cost calculated by the weighted average price = total cost of items/total number of items Price is recalculated on periodic basis as each shipment is received, and as items are removed
40
Which cost approximation method is not permitted by IAS2 and why
Last in, First out (LIFO) - does not bear a good approximation of to actual cost
41
Define Net realisable Value
Estimated selling price in the ordinary cost of business less - estimated costs of completion - estimated costs necessary to make sale (marketing, selling, distribution)
42
Why might the NRV be less than the cost of inventories?
- Increase in cost of manufacturing items - Physical determination of inventories - Errors in production
43
What disclosures are needed in financial statements for inventories>?
- Accounting policies to measure inventories (cost formula) - Total carrying amount of inventories - Carrying amount at Net Realisable value
44
Define events after the reporting period
Events favourable and unfavourable occur between end of the reporting period and when financial statements are authorised for issue
45
What are the two types of events after the reporting period?
- Adjusting events after the reporting period - evidence of conditions that existed - Non-adjusting events after the reporting period indicative of conditions that arose after the reporting period
46
What are ways in which assets can be impaired as an adjusting event?
- Credit customer has gone bankrupt - The recoverable amount of PPE has fallen below the carrying amount - Evidence that the Net realisable value of inventories is less than the carrying amount
47
What are other examples of adjusting events?
- Resolution of court case - determination of Cost of assets purchased or proceeds from assets sold - Evidence that going concern basis may no longer be appropriate - Discovery of fraud or error
48
What are examples of non-adjusting events
- Acquisition or disposal or subsidiary after the reporting date - Announcement of a plan to discontinue operation after the end of the reporting date - Major transaction in shares, PPE after reporting date - Litigation due to events after the reporting date - Destruction of PPE (fire, flood) after end of reporting date
49
What is the accounting treatment for adjusting events?
The amounts in financial statements are changed to incorporate new information
50
What is the accounting treatment for non-adjusting events?
- no changes made to amounts in the financial statements - A disclosure note is included: nature of event + financial effect if quantifiable
51
How are proposed equity dividends recognised on financial statements?
As a liability on the SPL - IF they were declared before the end of the reporting period -if after, then as a note in the disclosure
