On 1 April 2009 Picant acquired 75% of Sander’s equity shares in a share exchange of
three shares in Picant for every two shares in Sander. The market prices of Picant’s and
Sander’s shares at the date of acquisition were $3·20 and $4·50 respectively.
In addition to this Picant agreed to pay a further amount on 1 April 2010 that was
contingent upon the post-acquisition performance of Sander. At the date of acquisition
Picant assessed the fair value of this contingent consideration at $4·2 million, but by 31
March 2010 it was clear that the actual amount to be paid would be only $2·7 million
(ignore discounting). Picant has recorded the share exchange and provided for the initial
estimate of $4·2 million for the contingent consideration.
On 1 October 2009 Picant also acquired 40% of the equity shares of Adler paying $4 in
cash per acquired share and issuing at par one $100 7% loan note for every 50 shares
acquired in Adler. This consideration has also been recorded by Picant.
Picant has no other investments. The summarised statements of financial position of the
three companies at 31 March 2010 are:
Investments 45,000
78
F7 Workbook Q & A www.mapitaccountancy.com
(i) At the date of acquisition the fair values of Sander’s property, plant and equipment was
equal to its carrying amount with the exception of Sander’s factory which had a fair
value of $2 million above its carrying amount. Sander has not adjusted the carrying
amount of the factory as a result of the fair value exercise. This requires additional
annual depreciation of $100,000 in the consolidated financial statements in the post-
acquisition period.
(ii)Also at the date of acquisition, Sander had an intangible asset of $500,000 for software
in its statement of financial position. Picant’s directors believed the software to have no
recoverable value at the date of acquisition and Sander wrote it off shortly after its
acquisition.
(iii)At 31 March 2010 Picant’s current account with Sander was $3·4 million (debit). This
did not agree with the equivalent balance in Sander’s books due to some goods-in-
transit invoiced at $1·8 million that were sent by Picant on 28 March 2010, but had not
been received by Sander until after the year end. Picant sold all these goods at cost
plus 50%.
(iv)Picant’s policy is to value the non-controlling interest at fair value at the date of
acquisition. For this purpose Sander’s share price at that date can be deemed to be
representative of the fair value of the shares held by the non-controlling interest.
(v)Impairment tests were carried out on 31 March 2010 which concluded that the value of
the investment in Adler was not impaired but, due to poor trading performance,
consolidated goodwill was impaired by $3·8 million.

and has also decided that one of the machines should have it’s computer hard drive
replaced to increase production by 10% per year at a cost of $50,000.

Illustration 4
Davos is building an office block and issued a $10 million unsecured loan with a coupon
(nominal) interest rate of 6% on 1 April 20X9. The loan is redeemable at a premium which
means the loan has an effective finance cost of 7·5% per annum.
The loan was specifically issued to finance the building of the new block which meets the
definition of a qualifying asset in IAS 23. Construction of the block commenced on 1 May
20X9 and it was completed and ready for use on 28 February 2010, but did not open for
trading until 1 April 20X0.
During the year trading at Davos’ was below expectations so they suspended the
construction of the new block for a two-month period during July and August 20X9. The
proceeds of the loan were temporarily invested for the month of May 20X9 and earned
interest of $40,000.
Solution
The effective interest rate is 7.5% which should be used to capitalise the interest as this is
a qualifying asset.
The interest cost for the year to 31/03/20X0 would therefore be ($10m x 7.5%) =
$750,000.
However the building only began on 1/05/20X9 and was completed on 28/02/20X0 so one
month at the start and one month at the end can’t be capitalised.
8 months interest ($750,000 x 8/12) = $500,000 less the temporary investment income of
$40,000 should be caplitalised.
Total = $460,000
The rest of the cost should be written off to the Income statement.

Archie Co. committed itself at the beginning of the financial year to selling a property that
is being under-utilised following the economic downturn. As a result of the economic
downturn, the property was not sold by the end of the year. The asset was actively
marketed but there were no reasonable offers to purchase the asset. Archie is hoping that
the economic downturn will change in the future and therefore has not reduced the price of
the asset.
Can Archie Co. classify the property as available for sale under IFRS 5?
Solution
Although Archie has a plan to sell, it is available immediately and they are trying to locate a
buyer it would appear that they are not marketing the property at a reasonable price.
They have not reduced the price even though there has been a downturn that has
presumably reduced prices in general so cannot classify the property under IFRS 5.

A company has a machine that cost $300,000 to buy two years ago. At the time of
purchase the machine had a useful economic life of 30 years and they apply the cost
model under IAS 16 (Cost less depreciation).
The company has decided to sell the machine and it’s fair value at this time is $220,000
with additional costs to sell being estimated at $5,000.
Although the machine has not been sold at the year end as the decision was taken that

Fresco sells an IT system to Dining on the first day of a new accounting period.
The package includes hardware delivered immediately and a contract for support over the
next 3 years with that support worth $50,000 p/a.
How much should Fresco recognise as revenue from the transaction in the current year?
Solution
Step 1 - Identify the Contract
Based on the individual prices the support is worth (50,000 x 3) $150,000 leaving the rest
of the $300,000 to be for the hardware (300,000 - 150,000) = $150,000.
Step 5 - Recognise the revenue when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied
The supply of the hardware happens immediately so the revenue for it should be
recognised now.
The support is provided over time so should be recognised on that basis i.e. $50,000 per
year over the 3 years.

Jumbo has agreed to sell a piece of complex machinery with two years free servicing to
Jet for $441,000. The machine usually sells for $420,000.
The servicing will cost Jumbo $50,000 to provide and they generally include a mark-up of
40% when setting the price to charge customers for servicing.
How should the transaction price be allocated to the machine and servicing?
Solution
We can see that the machine generally sells for $420,000 but there is no comparable price
for the servicing contract.
Based on the cost + mark-up the servicing would be worth (50,000 x 140%) $70,000.
Therefore the total value of the performance obligations is (420,000 + 70,000) $490,000.
The fact that Jumbo is selling these for $441,000 would imply that a 10% discount has
been applied.
This should be allocated proportionally to the machine and servicing so the amounts
recognised should be:

Jumbo has agreed to sell a piece of complex machinery with two years free servicing to
Jet for $700,000. The machine usually sells for $600,000 although a 5% discount is often
applied to machines of this specification.
The servicing will cost Jumbo $100,000 to provide and they generally include a mark-up of
30% when setting the price to charge customers for servicing.
The two year servicing contract is not available as a stand-alone product but Jumbo has a
policy of not offering discounts on servicing contracts.
How should the transaction price be allocated to the machine and servicing?
Solution
We can see that the machine generally sells for $600,000 but there is no comparable price
for the servicing contract.
Based on the cost + mark-up the servicing would be worth (100,000 x 130%) $130,000.
Therefore the total value of the performance obligations is (600,000 + 130,000) $730,000.
The fact that Jumbo is selling these for $700,000 would imply that a $30,000 discount has
been applied.
However rather than be allocated proportionally to the machine and servicing the discount
should be applied to the machine only because:
- The discount amounts to 5% of the $600,000 for the machine which is the standard
discount for this item given generally.
- There is not generally a discount on servicing.

Badger Co. manufactures smart phones and sells them through a contractual relationship
with Bodger Co. Badger provides Bodger with the phones for a price of $150 payable once
the phone is sold on to a customer.
Bodger has also agreed to a clause in the contract of sale that they cannot sell the phone
for less than $200.
How should the goods and revenue be treated in the financial statements of Badger and
Bodger?
Solution
When the goods are provided to Bodger initially they still remain the property of Badger as
they have retained control of them by stipulating the price at which they should be soldr
They will stay as part of Badger’s inventory and no revenue recognised until it is sold to an
end customer.
Once the goods are sold to the customer for $200 Bodger should only recognise the
commission they have received on selling the goods i.e. $50.
The other $150 is paid to Badger and should be recognised as their revenue on the sale.

materials to you at a lower price of $28,000 per tonne.
iii)Plant constructed for a specific customer at a cost of $50,000 and an agreed price to the

On 1 October 20X9 Mocca entered into a construction contract that was expected to take
27 months and therefore be completed on 31 December 20X1.
Plant for use on the contract was purchased on 1 January 20X0 (three months into the
contract as it was not required at the start) at a cost of $8 million. The plant has a four-year
life and after two years, when the contract is complete, it will be transferred to another
contract at its carrying amount. Annual depreciation is calculated using the straight-line
method (assuming a nil residual value) and charged to the contract on a monthly basis at
1/12 of the annual charge.
The correctly reported income statement results for the contract for the year ended 31
March 20X0 were:
$‘000
Revenue recognised 3,500
Contract expenses recognised (2,660)
Profit recognised 840
Required:
Calculate the amounts which would appear in the income statement and statement
of financial position of Mocca for the year ended/as at 31 March 20X1 in respect of
the above contract.

ABC Co. does not offer warranties with the radio’s it sells to customers, however if a
customer is dissatisfied with the product for any reason they provide a refund with ‘no

A company has entered into a contract to pay for specialist engineering support over the
next 3 years for annual payments with a present value of £100,000. Unfortunately due to a
change in the trading environment the support is no longer needed but the contract
cannot be changed. The directors feel they may be able to sell the contract to another
business for $50,000 but are unsure whether this is possible.
Solution
The onerous contract means that a provision should be recognised for the $100,000.

A power generating company has just won a contract to build a new power station at a
cost of $12m. The terms of the contract state that the company is not responsible for any
environmental damage caused around the site such as pollution to the local environment.
It is estimated by the company that by the end of the useful economic life of the power
station in 25 years time it will cost $2m to rectify any environmental impact of the plant.
The company has a very clear environmental charter that has targets for limiting
environmental impact and a policy of rectifying any environmental damage caused by their
operations.

TY has recently completed a contract replacing a roof on the local school. Despite this, the
roof has been leaking and some sections are now unsafe. The school is suing TY for
$20,000 to repair the roof.
TY used a sub-contractor to install the roof and regards the sub-contractor’s work as faulty.
TY has raised a court action against the sub-contractor claiming the cost of the school’s
action plus legal fees, a total of $22,000.
TY has been informed by legal advisers that it will probably lose the case brought against
it by the school and will probably win the case against the sub-contractor.
A. A provision should be made for the $20,000 liability and the case against the sub-
contractor ignored.
B. A provision should be made for the $20,000 liability and the probable receipt of cash
from the case against the sub-contractor disclosed as a note.
C. No provisions should be made but the $20,000 liability should be disclosed as a note.
D. A provision should be made for the $20,000 liability and the probable receipt of cash
from the case against the sub-contractor recognised as a current asset.

In the first year the ROCE was 90.91%. At first glance this would appear to be a good return, however
without industry averages or prior period information we are unable to tell if this is the case.
In year X2 the ROCE is 64.10%. This is a fall of 29.5% from the previous year indicating that the business
in not able to make the same return on it’s assets that it has previously been able to do.
In the year X3 the ROCE is 29.13%. This is a fall of 54.55% indicating that there may be some serious

In year X2 the ROE is 44.8%. This is a fall of 36% from the previous year indicating that the business in
not able to make the same return on the shareholders funds that it has previously been able to do.

16.66% 14.28% 7.1%
The Gross Margin is 33.33% in X1 and holds reasonably steady in X2 at 31.42%. However in X3 the
Gross Margin falls to 23.89% indicating that the business has either had to cut prices to sell the greater
volume it has, or the cost of it’s purchases have gone up.
The Net Margin is 9.3% in X1 but begins to fall in X2 with 7.4% achieved, before falling dramatically to
0.7% in X3. The main reason for this is the fall in Gross Profit as other costs have risen in line with
expectations given the increase in sales. However another point to note is that interest costs have risen
with the increase in long term loans. The extra interest costs have put pressure on the business.
The Operating Margin dropped slightly in X2 to 14.28% from 16.66% the previous year - a fall of almost
15%. In X3 the Operating Margin fell away to 7.1%, a decrease of over 50%. This is due to the decreasing
Gross Margin achieved as well as rises in the other expenses.

Gearing
X1 X2 X3
Gearing levels in year X1 are 15%. Without industry averages or prior year data we are unable to assess
this level although at first glance it does not seem excessive.
In year X2 gearing increases slightly to 16.66%, an increase of 11% from year X1. This is due to debt
levels increasing to 200 from 150, although this is offset by the increase in the share price from $3.30 to
$4.
In year X3 gearing increases dramatically to 45%, an increase of over 180%. This is due to debt levels
rising to 300 from 200 and the share price dropping to $2.20 due to the deteriorating results of the
business.

times times times
Interest coverage in year X1 is 5 times. Without industry averages or prior year data we are unable to
assess this level although at first glance it does not seem unreasonable.
In year X2 interest coverage falls to 3.33 times. This has occurred due to the interest charge increasing in
the period while PBIT has remained constant.
In year X3 interest coverage has decreased again to 1.36 times. This is caused by the PBIT achieved
decreasing to 300 combined with the increase in the interest charge to 220. The increase in interest is
caused by the increase in the long term debt of the company as shown by the gearing ratios calculated
above.
Dividend Cover
X1 X2 X3
Dividend Cover (PAT / Dividends) (280 / 100) = 2.8 (260 / 110) = 2.36 (30 / 30) = 1 time
times times
Dividend coverage in year X1 is 2.8 times. Without industry averages or prior year data we are unable to
assess this level although at first glance it does not seem unreasonable.
In year X2 dividend coverage falls to 2.36 times. This would not concern investors as although coverage
has gone down slightly, the dividend paid this year is greater than last.
In year X3 dividend coverage has decreased to 1 time. This is caused by the decrease in profit achieved
by the company restricting the level of dividend payable. This will be of concern to investors and their
concern is reflected in the fall in the share price from $4 in year X2 to $2.20 in year X3.

Dividend Yield
X1 X2 X3
Dividends Per Share (100 / 300) = 33c (110 / 300) = 36c (30 / 300) = 10c
Dividend Yield (Dividends Per Share / (33 / 330) = 10% (36 / 400) = 9% (10 / 220) = 4.5%
Share Price)
The Dividend Yield is 10% in year X1. Whilst we do not have comparatives, this seems a reasonable
return.
In year X2 the Dividend Yield falls to 9%. This will not be overly concerning to investors as the increase in
share price over the year will have more than made up for the slightly lower yield.
In year X3 the Dividend Yield has fallen to 4.5% which is 50% lower than the previous year. This,
combined with the fall in share price and reduced profitability will be a major concern to investors.
P/E Ratio
X1 X2 X3
EPS (280 / 300) = 93c (260 / 300) = 86c (30 / 300) = 10c
P/E Ratio (Share Price / EPS) (330 / 93) = 3.54 (400 / 86) = 4.65 (220 / 10) = 22
The P/E Ratio in year X1 is 3.54. We do not have industry comparatives or prior year information with
which to compare this.
In year X2 the P/E Ratio increases to 4.65. This indicates that the market expectations for this share have
risen since X1 and that investors are now willing to pay 4.65 times what the business earns in a year to
own the share.
In year X4 the P/E ratio has increased dramatically to 22. This is unusual as the earnings have decreased
to 12% of the previous year. The share price has fallen to reflect this, but not by as much as would be
expected. This may indicate that the market feels that the results in year X3 were perhaps a one-off and
that next years results will improve.
