Presentation

Physical presentation of assignments

It is essential that presentation of assignments adheres to accepted standards in relation to neatness and layout, as you are practising to present material in a work situation. Correct formatting and referencing procedures of material should be strictly adhered to for essays. You should submit a proper reference list (using APA referencing style) for all essay type assignments. A reference list contains only those works cited or quoted from in your essay. A bibliography is acceptable for practical-type assignments.

For practical questions:

all journal entries must include narrations unless otherwise specified; any ledger accounts should preferably be shown in 'T' account format and dates

and descriptions be included; journal entries and ledger accounts must reflect the strict order of sequence of

events; financial statements (including extracts) should include proper headings and

accord with presentation standards.

Penalties will be incurred if material is not correctly referenced and if presentation is not of an acceptable standard.

Please also note the following:

Journal entries, ledger accounts, worksheets and financial statements should always balance. If you have to submit a piece of work that does not balance because you cannot detect your error please include some comment about the source of your problem so the marker can provide appropriate feedback.

Include workings where appropriate. Partial marks can be allocated for workings where the final answer is incorrect.

Requirements

All workings, when appropriate, must be shown to substantiate your answers.

Question 1 [15 marks]

Events after the reporting period

Bob Ltd is finalising its financial statements for the reporting period ending 30 June 2014. On 21 July 2014, before the financial statements have been finalised and authorised for issue, the company’s directors became aware of the following situations:

a) 2 July 2014: The directors proposed a dividend of $10,000.

b) 3 July 2014: The directors approved the sale of an off-shore agency to another entity for a profit of $30,000.

c) 4 July 2014: The company received an invoice from a supplier for $85,000 for goods delivered in June; the goods were included in closing inventory at an estimated cost of $100,000.

d) 5 July 2014: The company executed a guarantee in favour of the banks for an outstanding loan of $1,000,000 that the bank made to X Ltd, the company’s major supplier, in January of that year; the guarantee was executed because the bank was demanding payment, which would have disrupted inventory supplies.

e) 6 July 2014: An agreement was signed to take over a production facility in Adelaide at a cost of $5,000,000, which will be paid for using a long-term finance lease.

f) 7 July 2014: The Australian Taxation Office waived fines for the inclusion of incorrect information in the company’s 2012 income tax return; the adjusted return was reflected in the company’s financial statements and the fine of $30,000 was recognised as an expense and liability at reporting date.

Required:

i) Given that financial statements are prepared for the financial period up to the reporting date, explain why there is a need for a standard that refers to events occurring after the reporting date.

(3 marks)

ii) Explain whether the above events will be classified as either adjusting or non-adjusting events after the end of the reporting period (assuming the amount is material), providing reasons for your decision. State the appropriate accounting treatment for each event in Bob Ltd’s 2014 financial statements.

Accounting for share capital

The constitution of Henrietta Sweeney Ltd indicated that the company could issue up to 5,000,000 ordinary shares and 1,000,000 preference shares. Prospectuses had been published offering 1,000,000 preference shares at $1.50 payable in full on application by 31 March 2014, and 2,000,000 ordinary shares at $1.20 with 50% due on application by 31 March 2014, 25% due on allotment, and 25% due on a call to be made by the directors at a later date.

By 31 March 2014, the company had received amounts due on 800,000 of the preference shares and on applications for 2,400,000 ordinary shares. On 15 April 2014, the ordinary and preference shares were allotted. The ordinary shares were allotted to applicants on a pro rata basis and the amounts received in excess of that due were to be credited against amounts due on allotment. The amount due on allotment of the ordinary shares was due by 15 May 2014 and this was received on all shares.

The directors made the call on the ordinary shares on 31 August 2014, with amounts due by 30 September. By this date, amounts due on 1,997,000 ordinary shares had been received. On 15 October 2014, the shares on which call money was not received were forfeited and sold as fully paid. An amount of $0.75 was received for each share sold. Costs of the forfeiture and reissue amounted to $800, and were paid. The constitution does not provide for refund of any balance in the forfeited shares account after reissue to former shareholders.

Required:

Prepare the journal entries to record the transactions of Henrietta Sweeney Ltd up to and including that which took place on 15 October 2014. Show all relevant dates, narrations and workings.

$Residential land, at cost 1,000,000Factory land, at valuation 2011 900,000Buildings, at valuation 2010 800,000Accumulated depreciation (100,000)

At 30 June 2014, the balance of the revaluation surplus is $200,000, of which $100,000 relates to the factory land and $100,000 to the buildings. On this same date, independent valuations of the land and building are obtained. In relation to the above assets, the assessed fair values at 30 June 2014 are:

$Residential land, previously recorded at cost

1,100,000

Factory land, previously revalued in 2011

700,000

Buildings, previously revalued in 2010

900,000

The company has adopted fair value for the valuation of non-current assets.

The company tax rate is 30%.

Required:

i) Prepare journal entries to record the revaluations on 30 June 2014. Petersen Ltd classifies the residential land and factory land as different classes of assets.

(12 marks)

ii) The directors of Petersen Ltd are now concerned about the impact of reporting the decline in the fair value of the factory land in the company’s financial statements. They have now asked you (the company accountant) to use the 2011 valuation for the 2014 financial statements, stating that the decline in value of the factory land is only temporary and will increase again in the near future, after a nearby multi-million dollar development is approved. You need to prepare a response to the directors’ request. Provide references to AASB 116 to support your answer. (Word limit: 200 words)
