  • 第3题:

    (b) (i) Discuss the main factors that should be taken into account when determining how to treat gains and

    losses arising on tangible non-current assets in a single statement of financial performance. (8 marks)


    正确答案:
    (b) (i) Currently there are many rules on how gains and losses on tangible non current assets should be reported and these
    have traditionally varied from country to country. The main issues revolve around the reporting of depreciation,
    disposal/revaluation gains and losses, and impairment losses. The reporting of such elements should take into account
    whether the tangible non current assets have been revalued or held at historical cost. The problem facing standard
    setters is where to report such gains and losses.The question is whether they should be reported as part of operating
    activities or as ‘other gains and losses’.
    Holding gains arising on the sale of tangible non current assets could be reported separately from operating results so
    that the latter is not obscured by an asset realisation that reflects more a change in market prices than any increase in
    the operating activity of the entity. Other changes in the carrying amounts of tangible non current assets will be reported
    as part of the operating results. For example, the depreciation charge tries to reflect the consumption of the asset by the
    entity and as such is not a holding loss. There may be cases where the depreciation charge does not reflect the
    consumption of economic benefits. For example, the pattern and rate of depreciation could have been misjudged
    because the asset’s useful life has been assessed incorrectly. In this case, when an asset is sold any excess or shortfall
    of depreciation may need to be dealt with in the operating result.
    Impairment is another factor to consider in reporting gains and losses on tangible non current assets. Impairment is
    effectively accelerated depreciation. Impairment arises when the carrying amount of the asset is above its recoverable
    amount. It follows therefore that any impairment loss should be reported as part of the operating result. Any losses on
    disposal, to the extent that they represent impairment, could therefore be reported as part of the operating results. Any
    losses which represent holding losses could be reported in ‘other gains and losses’. The difficulty will be differentiating
    between holding losses and impairment losses. There will have to be clear and concise definitions of these terms or it
    could lead to abuse by companies in their quest to maximise operating profits.
    A distinction should be made between gains and losses arising on tangible non current assets as a result of revaluations
    and those arising on disposal. The nature of the gain or loss is essentially the same although the timing and certainty
    of the gain/loss is different. Therefore revaluation gains/losses may be reported in the ‘other gains and losses’ section.
    Where an asset has been revalued, any loss on disposal that represents an impairment would be charged to operating
    results and any remaining loss reported in ‘other gains and losses’.
    Essentially, gains and losses should be reported on the basis of the characteristics of the gains and losses themselves.
    Gains and losses with similar characteristics should be reported together thus helping the comparability of financial
    performance nationally and internationally.

  • 第8题:

    (b) Historically, all owned premises have been measured at cost depreciated over 10 to 50 years. The management

    board has decided to revalue these premises for the year ended 30 September 2005. At the balance sheet date

    two properties had been revalued by a total of $1·7 million. Another 15 properties have since been revalued by

    $5·4 million and there remain a further three properties which are expected to be revalued during 2006. A

    revaluation surplus of $7·1 million has been credited to equity. (7 marks)

    Required:

    For each of the above issues:

    (i) comment on the matters that you should consider; and

    (ii) state the audit evidence that you should expect to find,

    in undertaking your review of the audit working papers and financial statements of Albreda Co for the year ended

    30 September 2005.

    NOTE: The mark allocation is shown against each of the three issues.


    正确答案:
    (b) Revaluation of owned premises
    (i) Matters
    ■ The revaluations are clearly material as $1·7 million, $5·4 million and $7·1 million represent 5·5% , 17·6% and
    23·1% of total assets, respectively.
    ■ The change in accounting policy, from a cost model to a revaluation model, should be accounted for in accordance
    with IAS 16 ‘Property, Plant and Equipment’ (i.e. as a revaluation).
    Tutorial note: IAS 8 ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’ does not apply to the initial
    application of a policy to revalue assets in accordance with IAS 16.
    ■ The basis on which the valuations have been carried out, for example, market-based fair value (IAS 16).
    ■ Independence, qualifications and expertise of valuer(s).
    ■ IAS 16 does not permit the selective revaluation of assets thus the whole class of premises should have been
    revalued.
    ■ The valuations of properties after the year end are adjusting events (i.e. providing additional evidence of conditions
    existing at the year end) per IAS 10 ‘Events After the Balance Sheet Date’.
    Tutorial note: It is ‘now’ still less than three months after the year end so these valuations can reasonably be
    expected to reflect year-end values.
    ■ If $5·4 million is a net amount of surpluses and deficits it should be grossed up so that the credit to equity reflects
    the sum of the surpluses with any deficits being expensed through profit and loss (IAS 36 ‘Impairment of Assets’).
    ■ The revaluation exercise is incomplete. If the revaluations on the remaining three properties are expected to be
    material and cannot be reasonably estimated for inclusion in the financial statements for the year ended
    30 September 2005 perhaps the change in policy should be deferred for a year.
    ■ Depreciation for the year should have been calculated on cost as usual to establish carrying amount before
    revaluation.
    ■ Any premises held under finance leases should be similarly revalued.
    (ii) Audit evidence
    ■ A schedule of depreciated cost of owned premises extracted from the non-current asset register.
    ■ Calculation of difference between valuation and depreciated cost by property. Separate summation of surpluses
    and deficits.
    ■ Copy of valuation certificate for each property.
    ■ Physical inspection of properties with largest surpluses (including the two valued before the year end) to confirm
    condition.
    ■ Extracts from local property guides/magazines indicating a range of values of similarly styled/sized properties.
    ■ Separate presentation of the revaluation surpluses (gross) in:
    – the statement of changes in equity; and
    – reconciliation of carrying amount at the beginning and end of the period.
    ■ IAS 16 disclosures in the notes to the financial statements including:
    – the effective date of revaluation;
    – whether an independent valuer was involved;
    – the methods and significant assumptions applied in estimating fair values; and
    – the carrying amount that would have been recognised under the cost model.

  • 第20题:

    (a) The following information relates to Crosswire a publicly listed company.

    Summarised statements of financial position as at:

    The following information is available:

    (i) During the year to 30 September 2009, Crosswire embarked on a replacement and expansion programme for its non-current assets. The details of this programme are:

    On 1 October 2008 Crosswire acquired a platinum mine at a cost of $5 million. A condition of mining the

    platinum is a requirement to landscape the mining site at the end of its estimated life of ten years. The

    present value of this cost at the date of the purchase was calculated at $3 million (in addition to the

    purchase price of the mine of $5 million).

    Also on 1 October 2008 Crosswire revalued its freehold land for the first time. The credit in the revaluation

    reserve is the net amount of the revaluation after a transfer to deferred tax on the gain. The tax rate applicable to Crosswire for deferred tax is 20% per annum.

    On 1 April 2009 Crosswire took out a finance lease for some new plant. The fair value of the plant was

    $10 million. The lease agreement provided for an initial payment on 1 April 2009 of $2·4 million followed

    by eight six-monthly payments of $1·2 million commencing 30 September 2009.

    Plant disposed of during the year had a carrying amount of $500,000 and was sold for $1·2 million. The

    remaining movement on the property, plant and equipment, after charging depreciation of $3 million, was

    the cost of replacing plant.

    (ii) From 1 October 2008 to 31 March 2009 a further $500,000 was spent completing the development

    project at which date marketing and production started. The sales of the new product proved disappointing

    and on 30 September 2009 the development costs were written down to $1 million via an impairment

    charge.

    (iii) During the year ended 30 September 2009, $4 million of the 10% convertible loan notes matured. The

    loan note holders had the option of redemption at par in cash or to exchange them for equity shares on the

    basis of 20 new shares for each $100 of loan notes. 75% of the loan-note holders chose the equity option.

    Ignore any effect of this on the other equity reserve.

    All the above items have been treated correctly according to International Financial Reporting Standards.

    (iv) The finance costs are made up of:

    Required:

    (i) Prepare a statement of the movements in the carrying amount of Crosswire’s non-current assets for the

    year ended 30 September 2009; (9 marks)

    (ii) Calculate the amounts that would appear under the headings of ‘cash flows from investing activities’

    and ‘cash flows from financing activities’ in the statement of cash flows for Crosswire for the year ended

    30 September 2009.

    Note: Crosswire includes finance costs paid as a financing activity. (8 marks)

    (b) A substantial shareholder has written to the directors of Crosswire expressing particular concern over the

    deterioration of the company’s return on capital employed (ROCE)

    Required:

    Calculate Crosswire’s ROCE for the two years ended 30 September 2008 and 2009 and comment on the

    apparent cause of its deterioration.

    Note: ROCE should be taken as profit before interest on long-term borrowings and tax as a percentage of equity plus loan notes and finance lease obligations (at the year end). (8 marks)
