Answer. Tax planning opportunities are actions that the entity would take in
order to create or increase taxable income in a particular period before the
expiry of a tax loss or tax credit carryforward. For example, in some
jurisdictions, taxable profit may be created or increased by:
(a) electing to have interest income taxed on either a received or receivable basis;
(c) selling, and perhaps leasing back, assets that have appreciated but for which
the tax base has not been adjusted to reflect such appreciation; and
(d) selling an asset that generates non-taxable income (such as, in some
jurisdictions, a government bond) in order to purchase another investment that
generates taxable income.
Where tax planning opportunities advance taxable profit from a later period to
an earlier period, the utilisation of a tax loss or tax credit carryforward still
depends on the existence of future taxable profit from sources other than future
originating temporary differences.

Disclosureof information about current business combinations
An acquirer is required to disclose information that enables users of its financial statements to
evaluate the nature and financial effect of a business combination that occurs either during the
current reporting period or after the end of the period but before the financial statements are
authorized for issue.
Among the disclosures required to meet the foregoing objective are the following:
name and a description of the acquiree
acquisition date
percentage of voting equity interests acquired
primary reasons for the business combination and a description of how the acquirer
obtained control of the acquiree
description of the factors that make up the goodwill recognised

financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2020. In May 2020 the government
announces to install the smoke detectors at the hotels by June 30, 2020. It is estimated to
cost Rs. 1.2 million. The company always complies with the government regulations and
intends to work by June 30, 2020.
Required:
Explain whether the company is required to make a provision in respect of the above
event for the year ended June 30, 2020 or not.
Answer: According to IAS 37, Provision, contingent assets and contingent liabilities, a
provision is recorded for an increase in liability or decrease in vale of asset in future. The
company shall record the provision, since the company complies with government regulation
and the amount of the liability can be measured reliably. The company shall provide
contingent liability of the amount of 1.2 million.
112. Describe how a company may assess the probability that taxable profit will be
available against which the unused tax losses or unused tax credits can be utilized.
113. Temporary differences are differences between the carrying amount of an asset or
liability in the statement of financial position and its tax base. State the situations in
which temporary differences may arise.
Answer: Taxable temporary differences are those on which tax will be charged in the future
when the asset (or liability) is recovered (or settled).
Deductible temporary differences are those which will result in tax deductions or savings in
the future when the asset (or liability) is recovered (or settled).
An example of a timing difference is rent income. Accrual accounting will only allow
revenue to be recorded when it is earned, but if a company receives an advance payment of
rental income, it must report this under taxable income on its tax return.
As such, this revenue will be recorded on the tax return but not the book income. This creates
a timing difference in this period. At a future period when the rental revenue is finally earned,
the company will record that revenue under book income but not on its tax return, thereby
reversing and eliminating the initial difference.
Required: Identify which of the above transactions needs to be disclosed as related party
transaction?

parties
115. SL is engaged in offering online access to customers to a library at an annual
membership fee of Rs. 60,000 per year. Discuss how SL should measure the progress
relating to the performance obligation.
Answer: According to IFRS 15, Performance obligation and timing of revenue recognition, A
performance obligation is a promise to transfer to the customer a good or service (or a bundle
of goods or services) that is distinct. At a contract inception, entities need to identify the
goods or services promised in that contract. This is a starting point in identifying performance
obligations. In addition to the goods or services explicitly stated in the contract, all implied
promises (e.g. by past business practices or published policies) that create a valid expectation
of the customer that the entity will transfer a distinct good or service are also treated as
separate performance obligations, even though they may not be enforceable by law.
HenceRs. 60,000 will berecognized as revenuefromperformance obligation.

When goodwill is purchased by the business, it is recognized as an intangible
asset to be tested for impairment test on a yearly basis.
Goodwill has an indefinite life. Hence, it should not be amortized. A business could
either result in a gain or a recognition of Goodwill. Gain is an addition to Retained
Earnings while Goodwill is recognized as an asset. An impairment test should be
done annually and not only when a trigger event occurs.

Q5: S (Pvt.) Limited, a small company, purchased its non-current tangible asset on January 1, 2018 at a
cost of Rs. 900,000, which qualified for tax depreciation at 15%. The company’s accounting
depreciation policy is to depreciate the asset over its useful economic life of ten years, assuming a

a) Rs. 0.
b) Rs. 23128
c) Rs. 188573
d) Rs. 211700
Answer:
Deferredtax arises because there is a difference between taxable profits and accounting profits. When
computing taxable profits, companies claim tax depreciation called capital allowances while when
computing accounting profits companies deduct accounting depreciation.
The value of the asset in the accounts is the carrying value which is computed as cost less depreciation,
while the asset is shown in the tax computation as the tax base which is cost less capital allowances.
The difference between the carrying value and the tax base is called a ‘temporary difference’. The
deferred tax liability is computed by multiplying the temporary difference by the tax rate. Once the
deferred tax liability is established, it is only necessary to compute the difference.

b) Rs. 750,000.
c) Rs. 1000,000.
d) Rs. 1750,000.
Answer:
Since there is no change in useful life of asset upon revaluation, we will depreciate the new amount of
asset over its remaining useful life, but we have to find the remaining life first,
Taking the old values, per year dep. By straight line is:
30,000,000/20 = 1500,000
9000,000/1500,000 = 6 years. upto july 1 2019, but asset is revalued at January 2020, hence further
half year is passed, so life of asset passed uptil now is 6 + 0.5 = 6.5 years
so, asset was already depreciated 6.5 years till now
Hence, remaining life = 20 – 6.5 = 13.5 years.

rentals to be paid amounting to Rs. 1800,000 each at the start of the year. is the amount that
would be reported as current liabilities in the Statement of Financial Position of JL as at December 31,
2019.
a) Rs. 2811510.
b) Rs. 3123900.
c) Rs. 3436290.
d) Rs. 1800,000.
Answer:
Since, first payment will be at the start of the year, so no interest could be charged on first payment,
since interestis charged after some time is elapsed. Since first payment is on first day of lease, so whole
of 1800,000 will be deduction from the principle lease amount, hence current liability,
4923900 – 1800,000 = 3123,900.

Q9: A Limited (AL) trial balance as at December 31, 2020 shows a debit balance of Rs. 700,000 on
current tax and a credit balance of Rs. 8400,000 on deferred tax. The directors have estimated the
provision for income tax for the year at Rs. 4.5 million and the required deferred tax provision is Rs.
5.6 million, Rs. 1.2 million of which relates to a property revaluation, amount will be
recorded as income tax expense to the statement of Profit or Loss for the year ended December 31,
2020.
b) Rs. 1 million.
Answer:
The charge to income tax on current tax is $5.2 million, being the $4.5 million estimate for this year plus
the under provision (debit balance in the trial balance) of $0.7 million.
The challenge lies with the movement on deferred tax due to the impact of the revaluation. Remember
that any deferred tax on revaluations goes through other comprehensive income and not profit or loss. It
is important therefore that when we calculate the movement on the deferred tax liability we remove the
$1.2million that relates to the revaluation.
This then means that we are comparing last year’s $8.4 million deferred tax provision to an adjusted
figure of $4.4 million deferredtax provision ($5.6 million less $1.2 million), which gives rise to a credit of
$4.0 million throughprofit or loss as the provision has beenreduced.
Ifwe net-off the $5.2 million debit (current tax) and $4.0 million credit (deferred tax movement) then we
get the $1.2 million income tax charge for the year.

2021 the fair value of the asset less cost to sell was Rs. 3000,000 and the expected future cash flows
amounted to Rs. 850,000 per annum for the next five years. The current cost of capital is 10% and a
five year present value factor for Re. 1 per annum is Rs. 0.621 per annum and five years annuity of Rs.

a) Rs. 1778,500.
b) Rs. 2000,000.
c) Rs. 2472,150.
d) Rs. 4472,150.
Answer:
Impairment loss = Carrying amount – recoverable amount
Recoverable amount = Higher of FV less cost of sale and Value in use
Value in use = present value of cash flows from assets.
Value in use = 3.79 x 850,000 = 3221500
Fair value less cost to sale = 3000,000
Recoverable amount= 3221500.
Carrying amount= cost – accumulated dep.
= 10,000,000 – (10,000,000/10 x 5) = 5000,0000
Impairment = 5000,000 – 3221500 = 1778500

Q5: HL purchased computers costing Rs. 6000,000 on July 1, 2017. HL depreciates computers at 20%
per annum on a reducing balance basis for accounting purpose while tax authority allows tax
depreciation at 30% on the same method. Tax rate applicable to the company is 29%. The amount of
deferred tax relating to this asset that should be recognized in the statement of financial position as at
June 30, 2020 is:
a) Rs. 294, 060.
b) Rs. 890,880.
c) Rs. 596,820.
d) Rs. 1487,700.
Answer:

= 6000,000 – 1200,000 – 960,000 = 3840,000 x 0.20 = 768,000
= sum of above 3 = 2928,000.
Q1: On June 1, 2020 a machine was sold which cost Rs. 2000,000 on July 31, 2016. Sale proceeds
amounted to Rs. 550,000 and the profit on disposal was Rs. 150,000. The depreciation policy for
machinery is straight line with a full year being charged in the year of acquisition and none in the year
of disposal. Which one of the following represents correct rate of depreciation for the machine.
a) 20%.
b) 30%.
c) 25%.
d) 35%.
Answer:
Cost = 2000,000
Carrying value = x
Since, machine was sold for 550,000 hence its fair value = 550,000.
Since machine was sold for profit of 150,000, hence, carrying amount was 150,000 less than fair value,
Hence carrying amount = 550,000 – 150,000 = 400,000.
Since cost – acc. Dep. = carrying amount
2000,000 – x = 400,000.
X = 2000,000 – 400,000 = 1600,000.
ACC. Dep. / no. of years = dep. Exp.

Q4: At January 1, 2020, FL received a loan of Rs. 10 million at 6% per annum. The loan has an effective
finance cost of 7.5% per annum. The loan was specifically issued to finance the construction of a new
building and the loan will be treated under IAS 23. Construction commenced on February 1, 2020 and
it was completed and ready for use on November 30, 2020, but did not became operational until
January 1, 2021. How much interest should be capitalized as part of property, plant and equipment of
FL as at December 31, 2020?
a) Rs. 600,000.
b) Rs. 125,000.
c) Rs. 625,000.
d) Rs. 750,000.
Answer:
The finance cost of the loan must be calculated using the effective rate of 7·5%, so the total finance cost
for the year ended 31 March 2010 is $750,000 ($10 million x 7·5%). As the loan relates to a qualifying
asset, the finance cost (or part of it in this case) can be capitalised under IAS 23.
The Standard says that capitalisation commences from when expenditure is being incurred (Feb 1, 2020)
andmust cease when the assetis ready for its intended use (Nov 30, 2020); in this case a 10-month
period. Hence capitalization = 750,000 x 10/12 = 625,000

Item 1: Materials costing Rs. 2400,000 bought for processing and assembly for a customer under a
one-off order which is expected to produce a high profit margin. Since buying this material, the cost
price has fallen to Rs. 2000,000.
Item 2: A machine constructed for another customer for a contracted price of Rs. 3600,000. This has
recently been completed at a cost of Rs. 3360,000. It has now been discovered that in order to meet
certain health and safety regulation modification at an extra cost of Rs. 840,000 will be required. The
customer has agreed to meet half of the extra cost.
Required:
Calculate the total value of these two items of inventory as at December 31, 2020.
Answer:
Item 1 has cost of Rs. 2400,000, while its Net realizable value (Fair value less cost to sell) is Rs. 2000,000.
Hence, Its value is Rs. 2000,000.
Item 2 has cost of construction and necessary expenditure amounting to Rs. 3360,000 + Rs. 840,000 =
Rs. 4200,000, while customer is willing to pay contract price plus half of extra charges that amounts to
Rs. 3600,000 + 0.50 x Rs. 840,000 = 4020,000 , Hence NRV is less than cost, so it will be shown at NRV of
Rs. 4020,000.

Answer:
Required:
Show how the above transaction will be recorded in the books of ALT.
Answer:
If the asset lacks commercial substance, then its fair value cannot be reliably measures and it will be
shown at carrying value. Hence the intangible asset will be shown at exchange value of Rs. 200,000 plus
the book value of license exchanged that is, Rs. 950,000. Bus license will be Rs. 1150,000.
Q18: On July 5, 2020, TL received a contract to print large number of magazines in the month of
August 2020. The customer has not defined the number of copies to be printed. On July 12, 2020, the
company received Rs. 80,000 deposit that will be set-off against the contract price but is non-
refundable in the event that the contract is cancelled. The contract is cancelled on August 30, 2020.
Required:
At July 12, 2020, TL received cash deposit but the work is yet to be performed hence the transaction is
recorded as unearned revenue as follows:
TL will debitcash Account by Rs. 80,000 and creditunearned client revenue by Rs. 80,000.
ON August 30 2020, the contract was cancelled but the amount was non refundable, hence TL will record
it as revenue earned due to breach of contract as follows:
TL will debitunearned clientrevenue Account by Rs. 80,000 and credit revenue earned by Rs. 80,000.
Q19: On January 5, 2021, before LL’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 were
authorized for issue, a fire destroyed the company’s warehouse which was valued at Rs. 10 million.
Inventories on hand with a carrying amount of Rs. 800,000 were also damaged. Destroyed warehouse
will be replaced at Rs. 15 million. LL insure its inventories up to a maximum loss of Rs. 500,000. The
company remains a going concern. Explain how LL would disclose the above event in its financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Answer:
LL should adjust its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020, according to IAS 10
“Events after the Reporting Period”, which states thatEvents after the reporting period are those events,
favorable and unfavorable, that occur between the end of the reporting period and the date when the
financial statements are authorized for issue.
Since the inventory is destroyed after the reporting period and before the authorization date, hence the
inventory will be revalued according to IAS 2, at lower of cost or NRV after adjusting it for insurance of
Rs. 500,000, (800,000 – 500,000 = Rs. 300,000 loss).
Destroyed warehouse will be shown at 15 million cost and a loss of 10 million will be recorded in
statement of profit or loss.
Since entity is still going concern, the going concern review will be performed and disclosure of going
concern will be shown in notes to the accounts.

LONG 2
Q1: A company owns a number of nuclear plants. The company is obliged to dismantle one of these
plants in 3 year’s time. The last nuclear plant is dismantled by the company cost Rs. 2 million
dismantle, but the company expects to dismantle this nuclear plant at a reduced cost of Rs. 1.6 million
due to increased experience.
There is also a chance that completely new technology may be available at the time of dismantling,
which could lead to a further cost saving of Rs. 400,000.
Answer:
According to IAS 37, Provisions, contingent assets and contingent liabilities, the provision is recorded for
future increase in liability or decrease in value of asset, the value of which can be reliably measured.
Since, the dismantling requires future expense, hence provision will be recorded, the disclosure of which
is given in statement of financial position.
The amount of provision is determined as : Rs. 2000,000 – Rs. 400,000 – Rs. 400,000 = Rs. 1200,000
provision is recorded for future dismantling of nuclear plant.
Q2: On January 1, 2019, IL received a government grant of Rs. 2 million in order to facilitate purchase
on the same day of an asset which cost of Rs. 3 million. The asset has a useful life of five years and is
depreciated on a 25% reducing balance basis. IL has a policy to account for all grants received as
deferred income. What amount of income will be recognized in respect of the grant for the year ended
December 31, 2020?
Answer:
The IAS 20, Government Grant, the amount of government grant is either considered as income or as
decrease in expenditure. Since the grant is abtained for purchase of the asset, the income recognized in
each period will be off set against the depreciation expense arising from use of asset.
Hence, income of Rs. 562,500 will be recorded for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Q3: On July 1, 2019, AL sold out its factory having a carrying value of Rs. 12 million to KL to Rs. 16
million. At this date the factory had a fair value of Rs. 30 million. AL continued to use the factory and
was responsible for the insurance and maintenance of the factory. Al has the right to repurchase the
factory for Rs. 19.6 million on July 1, 2022, representing a 7% growth in value each year.
Required: Discuss how the above transaction would be treated in the financial statement of AL for the
year ended June 30, 2020.
Answer:
July 1, 2019: The company has sold the asset recording the disposal as follows:
Since fair value of asset is much less (Rs. 30 million – 16 million = Rs. 14 million) which can be due to
impairment loss. Hence, impairment review must be done in order to account for the impairment loss.
At June 30, 2020, the present value of Rs. 19.6 million is = 19.6 x (1.07^-2) = Rs. 17.11 million, Since the
present value of factory is greater than value at June 30, 2019, hence the repurchase will cause a loss of
(Rs. 17.11 – Rs. 16 = Rs. 1.1 million).
Q4: The following information has been extracted from the records of A Limited, pertaining to
financial year ended March 31, 2020.
1. The company has been sued for the non-payment of end service compensation and gratuity to 6
employees who were terminated without giving any notice . The claim amounts to Rs. 3 million. The
lawyer of the company is of the view that the company would have to pay to the displaced employees,
but the estimate of the amount that would be payable if plaintiff succeeds against the company is Rs.
2 million.
2. The company is facing litigation due to an alleged breach of contract. The contract contains a clause
that prescribes damages of Rs. 4 million in case of default. The management has assessed 60%
probability that the damages will have to be paid.
Required:
Discuss how each of the above matter should be dealt with in the financial statements of A Limited for
the year ended March 31, 2020.
Answer:
1. According to IAS 37, Provisions, contingent assets and contingent liabilities, the provision is recorded
for future increase in liability or decrease in value of asset, the value of which can be reliably measured.
Since the opinion of lawyer about future liability is of Rs. 2 million, hence the company will record the
provision of Rs. 2 million and appropriate disclosure related to this contingent liability is provided in
Statement of Financial Position.
2. Since the chance of contingent liability in order of breach of contract is more then 50% (i-e. 60%)
hence the contingent liability of Rs. 4 million must be recorded by the company and appropriate
disclosure related to this contingent liability is provided in Statement of Financial Position.

Q6: On January 1, 2019, B Limited received Rs. 2500,000 from the government on the condition that
they employee at least 100 staff each year for the next four years. On this date, it was almost certain
that BL would meet these requirements. However, on January 1, 2020 due to downturn and reduced
consumer demand. BL could not manage to employ 100 staff. The conditions of the grant required full
payment.
Required:
Explain how the above event will be dealt in the financial statements of B Limited?
Answer:
According to IAS 20, Government Grant, the grant is amortized over its useful life (4 years in this case) if
the company abide by the provisions of grant. The company met the conditions of government grant for
1st year but could not maintain these conditions afterwards.
Since the company has recognized the grant income for first year equal to : 2500,000/4 = Rs. 625,000
which will now be regarded as loss , since according to grant conditions, the complete amount will be
reverted back if the company does not meet the conditions.
Q7: During the year ended December 31, 2019, SL exchanged an automobile from FL which has a
carrying amount of Rs. 1.2 million. (Rs. 3 million cost less accumulated depreciation of Rs. 1.8 million)
for a tooling machine which has a fair market value of Rs. 1.5 million. No cash is exchanged in the
transaction. The fair value of the auto mobile is not readily determinable.
Required:
Determine the gain or loss that SL would record in its financial statements in respect of the above
transaction for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Answer:
Since the fair value of the automobile can not be measured reliably at the date of disposal (December
31, 2019), hence the at disposal it will be taken at carrying amount of 1.2 million.
Since no cash is paid at the date of disposal, hence the automobile is still shown in books of company at
December 31, 2019.

Q10: Shapuntala Limited signed a contract with a customer to sale the car for Rs. 2 million, consider,
the following scenarios and explain whether the additional term is explicit or implicit and whether this
fact would affect how the transaction price is allocated.
1. During the last five years, all customers have been given a maintenance plan for free. This is not
stated in the contract. Similar maintenance plans are currently valued at Rs. 50,000.
2. The contract specifically mentions that a 3 year maintenance plan will be provided for free. The
maintenance plan is currently valued at Rs. 50,000.
Answer:
1. It is implicit contract, since the terms are not expressed by words written or spoken, the company will
be liable to cover the warranty for maintenance up to Rs. 50,000 due to constructive obligation.
2. Since terms of contract are expressly measured in contract, hence it is explicit contract. Maintenance
is provided at Rs. 50,000 per annum for 3 years, hence Rs. 50,000 present liability is recorded as
provision and total amount is Rs. 150,000 since the maintenance is provided for 3 years.

Q15: Mr. Rehan, a customer, sues Diamond Hotels for providing him with raw food that resulted in his
sickness. The hotel’s lawyer is of the view that it is unlikely (but not remote) that the company will
have any obligation under his lawsuit. Management estimated that the hotel would have to pay rs.
300,000 if it were to lose the lawsuit. Discuss how the above event should be dealt by diamond Hotels
as per IAS 37, Provisions, contingent asset and contingent liabilities.
Answer:
As per IAS 37, since the liability arising out of the scenario is unlikely but is not remote, hence there is
more than 50% chance of occurring of such contingent liability, Hence a provision equal to reliably
measured vale, i-e. Rs. 300,000 should be recorded in Statement of Financial position by the entity and
appropriate disclosure must also be provided in notes to the accounts.
Q16: A company owns a machine that has a carrying value of Rs. 8500,000 at the year end of
December 31, 2020. Its market value is Rs. 7800,000 and costs of disposal are estimated at Rs.
250,000. A new machine would cost Rs. 15000,000. LL expects its existing machine to produce net cash
flows of Rs. 3000,000 per annum for the next three years. The cost of capital of LL is 8%. Calculate the
impairment loss on the machine to be recognize in the financial statements as at December 31, 2020.
(Presnt value factor at 8% for year 1 = 0.926, year 2 = 0.857, year 3 = 0.794).
Answer:
Impairment Loss = Carrying amount – Recoverable amount.
Recoverable amount = Higher of Fair value less cost to sell or Value in Use
Value in Use = [Rs. 3000,000 x 0.926] + [Rs. 3000,000 x 0.857] + [Rs. 3000,000 x 0.794]
Hence, since value in use is greater then value in use, so Recoverable amount is Rs. 7731,000.
Impairment loss = 8500,000 – 7731,000 = Rs. 769,000.
Q17: During the year ended December 31, 2020, WL entered into the following transactions:
On January 1, 2020, WL acquired under a lease arrangement an equipment which was initially
measured as at Rs. 2040,000. Under the terms of lease a payment in advance of Rs. 540,000 was made
on commencement of the lease being the first of five equal payments. The equipment has a five years
useful life. The lease has an implicit interest rate of 10%.
On November 1, 2020, WL makes a payment of Rs. 108,000 for a nine month lease of an item of
excavation equipment. WL wishes to utilize the exceptions available under IFRS 16 “Leases”.
What amount in total would be charged to WL’s Statement of profit or loss for the year ended
December 31, 2020 in respect of above transaction.
Answer:
Since, only one payment is made until 31 December , 2020 which was in advance (at first day of
inception of lease, hence there is no interest payment, only principle is paid by the whole payment of Rs.
540,000.
The second transaction falls under exception of IAS 16, Leases, which states that the whole amount of
lease is expensed to profit or loss statement, if lease term is less than one year, Hence the amount
charged to Profit or loss statement is Rs. 108,000.
1. Rs. 1.5 million spent on the initial design work of a new product. It is anticipated that this design
will be taken forward over the next two year period to be developed and tested with a view to
production in three year’s time.
2. Rs. 7.5 million spent on the testing of a new production system which has been designed internally
and which will be in operation during the following year. This new system should reduce the cost of
production by 20%.
How should each of the above costs to be treated in the financial statements of the SL.
Answer:
1. Since, the expenditure is for initial design which under IAS 38, falls under research expenditure, Hence
amount of Rs. 1.5 million is expensed in Statement of Profit or Loss since the amount related to research
expenditure is always expensed, it can not be capitalized.
2. These would appear to be development stage costs as the new production system is due to
be in place fairly soon and will produce economic benefits in the shape of reduced costs.
Therefore these should be capitalised as development costs. Rs. 7.5 million spent on internally generated
asset must be capitalized since it is necessary expenditure of development of internally generated asset.
Moreover it reduces the cost of production by 20%.
19: On July 1, 2019, HL sold an item of machinery to AL at its fair value of Rs. 75 million. The asset had
a carrying amount of Rs. 30 million prior to sale. This sale represents the satisfaction of a performance
obligation in accordance with IFRS 15.
HL entered into a contract with AL for the right to use the asset for next five years. Annual payments
of Rs. 12.5 million are due at the end of each year. The interest rate implicit in the lease is 10%. The
present value of the annual lease payment is Rs. 47.5 million, the remaining useful life of the asset is
twelve years.
Explain how HL will account for the above transaction on July 1, 2019.
Answer:
On July 1, 2019, the entity will record a Profit on disposal of following amount:
Profit on disposal = Fair value – carrying value = Rs. 75 million – Rs. 30 million.
On July 1, the company entered into right of use asset lease agreement also, according to which
company has to make payments of Rs. 12.5 million, and 1st payment is due as current liability, Hence
amount of Rs. 12.5 million is shown as current lease liability in Statement of Financial position in which
there is implicit tax of 10% which means company has to record interest expense in Statement of profit
or loss equal to Rs. 47.5 million x 10% = 4.75 million.

June 30, 2021 assuming that all the above stated events are material to the company.
Answer:
i. Inventory, According to IAS 2 is shown at lower of cost or NRV. In this case, the cost is 25 million while
its NRV (Fair value less cost to sell) is Rs. 15 million. Hence, it must be shown at Rs. 15 million.
ii. In this case, the company must record provision for bad debts equal to 80% of the credit sales, since
the customer has become insolvent and can only pay 20% of the receivables.
iii. Company must record dividend expense and dividend payable, Accounting entry will be, debit
dividend expense and credit dividend payable.

IFRS 16 Leases provides a recognition exemption whereby lessees can choose not to capitalise 'short-
term leases' on the balance sheet, and instead recognise lease payments as an expense, either on a
straight-line basis, or another systematic basis, if that basis is more representative of the pattern of the
lessee's ...
Q4: At January 1, 2020, FL received a loan of Rs. 10 million at 6% per annum. The loan has an effective
finance cost of 7.5% per annum. The loan was specifically issued to finance the construction of a new
building and the loan will be treated under IAS 23. Construction commenced on February 1, 2020 and
it was completed and ready for use on November 30, 2020, but did not became operational until
January 1, 2021. How much interest should be capitalized as part of property, plant and equipment of
FL as at December 31, 2020?
a) Rs. 600,000.
b) Rs. 125,000.
c) Rs. 625,000.
d) Rs. 750,000.
Answer:
The finance cost of the loan must be calculated using the effective rate of 7·5%, so the total finance cost
for the year ended 31 March 2010 is $750,000 ($10 million x 7·5%). As the loan relates to a qualifying
asset, the finance cost (or part of it in this case) can be capitalised under IAS 23.
The Standard says that capitalisation commences from when expenditure is being incurred (Feb 1, 2020)
and must cease when the asset is ready for its intended use (Nov 30, 2020); in this case a 10-month
period. Hence capitalization = 750,000 x 10/12 = 625,000
