3. Dempsey’s year end is 30 September 2014. Dempsey commenced the development stage of a project to produce a new pharmaceutical drug on 1 January 2014. Expenditure of $40,000 per month was incurred until the project was completed on 30 June 2014 when the drug went into immediate production. The directors became confident of the project’s success on 1 March 2014. The drug has an estimated life span of five years; time apportionment is used by Dempsey where applicable.
What amount will Dempsey charge to profit or loss for development costs, including any amortisation, for the year ended 30 September 2014?
A $12,000 B $98,667 C $48,000 D $88,000
Answer D
The directors were only confident of success on 31 March so until then we write off the monthly amount. So 2 months at $40,000 goes to P/L
From then until it ended on 30 June it is capitalised. So 4 months at $40,000 to SFP $160,000.
Production began on 30 June so we can start amortisation of the $160,000 then over 60 months.
It’s 3 months until the year end so amortise for that length of time.
Write off to 1 January 2014 to 28 February 2014 (2 x $40,000) $80,000Amortisation 160,000 (i.e. 4 x 40,000)/60 months x 3 (July to September) $8,000

Mind Map 23 - Borrowing Costs (IAS 23)
�160
Illustration 1
A company is building a qualifying asset worth $2.5m and has issued a bond of the same value to do so with an effective interest rate of 6%.
The asset will take 9 months to build and for the first 3 months the company invests the proceeds of the bond and earns interest at 3%.
What borrowing costs should be capitalised?
Solution
$
Total Interest for the Year (2.5m x 6%) 150,000
For 9 months x 9/12 112,500
Temporary Investment Income (2.5m x 3%) x 3/12 -18,750

Illustration 2A company has a £1m 6% loan and a £2m 8% loan. It builds a building costing £600,000 and it takes 8 months.
What borrowing costs should be capitalised?
Solution
Illustration 3Company buys land on 1/12, a planning application is prepared during December and January. Permission is obtained at the end of January. Payment for the land is made on 1/2. On this date a loan is taken out to pay for the land and building constructionAdverse weather conditions meant a delay in the commencement of work until 15/3.When should interest be capitalised from?
Solution
Total Borrowing Cost Total Cost
$1m 6% 6
$2m 8% 16
$3m At total cost 22
Average Rate therefore is (22/3) = 7.33%
We can capitalise 600,000 x 7.33% x 8/12 = $29,320
Expenses start being incurred 1 December
Borrowing costs incurred 1 February
Activities started 15 March

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.
Calculate the borrowing costs that can be capitalised under IAS 23
SolutionThe 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.
In addition there were 2 months during which construction was suspended.
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.

Mind Map 24 - Operating Segments (IFRS 8)
�165
Illustration 1Norman, a public limited company, has three business segments which are currently reported in its financial statements. Norman is an international hotel group which reports to management on the basis of region. It does not currently report segmental information under IFRS8 ‘Operating Segments’. The results of the regional segments for the year ended 31 May 2008 are as follows:
There were no significant inter company balances in the segment assets and liabilities. The hotels are located in capital cities in the various regions, and the company sets individual performance indicators for each hotel based on its city location.
Required:
Discuss how the principles in IFRS 8 ‘Operating Segments’ for the determination of a company’s reportable operating segments would be applied to Norman plc using the information given above.
RegionRevenue Segmental
Profit/LossSegmental
AssetsSegmentalLiabilitiesExternal Internal
$m $m $m $m $m
European 200 3 -10 300 200
South East Asia 300 2 60 800 300
Other 500 5 105 2,000 1,400
�166
Solution
The KPIs used by the management of Norman are based on city so it may well be that the operating segments of Norman could be split further on a city basis.
Norman should investigate their reporting structure to evaluate whether decisions about allocation and performance are made within the entity on a city basis and consider splitting the segments further.
Regarding the current segments, only the South East Asia segment passes all 3 tests for a reportable segment. The European segment meets only the criteria for 10% + of reported revenue and fails on the others.
However both segments will be reportable as they meet at least one of the criteria.
The current reported segments report only 50% of the entity’s total external revenue so they will have to identify further operating segments regardless of whether they meet the criteria until the reach 75%.
By examining the internal reports of Norman the entity can determine whether the operating segments should be further split based on the information used by management.

Illustration 2JK is an entity that operates in the wholesale and retail clothing market sectors across several countries. It prepares its financial statements in accordance with IFRSs. The directors are considering listing JK on a local stock exchange within the next 12 months. One of the directors has raised concerns about the costs associated with being a listed entity, in particular the additional expense of producing operating segment information.
(a) Explain how the requirements of IFRS 8 Operating segments assist entities in minimising the costs of producing the operating segment disclosures required by the standard as well as the benefits that could be gained by investors from reviewing the operating segment disclosures of JK when making decisions on investment.
(b) Discuss the potential limitations faced by investors of using operating segment information when making investment decisions.
Solution(a)IFRS 8 requires that operating segment disclosures be based on the information that the entity already produces for internal purposes.
If the information is already being internally produced by JK it should not involve significant costs to comply with the IFRS 8 disclosures. Investors are normally looking for information that can help them estimate the future performance of an entity.
While the financial statements of JK will provide information on the performance of the entity as a whole, the business operates in both retail and wholesale and in different geographic locations.
The risks associated with these sectors will be different and so to accurately assess the future risks facing an entity, users will need more than the combined figures in the financial statements. The operating segment disclosures on the performance and resources of the parts of the business will then provide the investors with an insight into this information.
(b) Under IFRS 8, the management of JK would determine the reportable segments that exist in the entity. Segments may be selected differently by each entity which reduces the comparability of segmental disclosures across entities.
Also, not all of the financial information can easily be allocated to segments – eg head office expenses and finance costs. This again makes it difficult for users to get a complete picture of the performance of segments and reduces comparability.

Mind Map 25 - Assets Held For Sale and Discontinued
Operations (IFRS 5)
�170
Illustration 1 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?
SolutionAlthough 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.
Illustration 2 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 day the company is confident that it will be sold quickly and is committed to selling it having begun to market the machine to potential purchasers.
How should the machine be treated at the year end in the financial statements and at what value will it be included?
�171
Solution
(a)Cost $300,000
Depreciation Year 1 (300,000 / 30) $10,000
Depreciation Year 2 (300,000 / 30) $10,000

Cost to Sell $5,000
Fair Value less Cost to Sell $215,000
Impairment (280,000 - 215,000) $65,000
The impairment will reduce the carrying value of the machine to $215,000 and the charge will be written off to the income statement.The machine will no longer be depreciated.

Objective Test Questions
1. Which of the following is NOT an indicator of impairment?
A. Advances in the technological environment in which an asset is employed have an adverse impact on its future use
B. An increase in interest rates which increases the discount rate an entity usesC. The carrying amount of an entity’s net assets is higher than the entity’s number of
shares in issue multiplied by its share priceD. The estimated net realisable value of inventory has been reduced due to fire damage
although this value is greater than its carrying amount
Answer D
Although the estimated NRV is lower than it was (due to fire damage), the entity will still make a profit on the inventory and thus it is not an indicator of impairment.

i) Goods purchased for resale at a cost of $40,000. The recent downturn in the economy has meant that these goods will now sell for $42,000 with costs to sell of $2,500.
ii)Materials purchased at a cost of $30,000 per tonne which will be sold at a profit. The manufacturer of the materials has just announced that from now on they will sell these 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 customer of $60,000. New health and safety requirements mean that the plant will need to be modified at a cost to ABC Co. of $4,000 before it can be delivered to the customer.
At what value should each of the above be included in the inventory of ABC Co.
Solution
Goods at $40,000
Cost 40,000
Net Realisable Value ($42,000 - 2,500) 39,500
Use Lower so value at... 39,500
The value of inventory will be reduced by $500 and this will be written off to the income statement.
Materials at $30,000 per tonne
The fact that the manufacturer has changed the cost price is irrelevant.
The goods will be sold at a profit and thus will be valued at $30,000 per tonne cost.
Plant at $50,000
Cost 50,000
Net Realisable Value ($60,000 - 4,000) 56,000

Objective Test QuestionsOn 30 September 2014, Razor’s closing inventory was counted and valued at its cost of $1 million. Some items of inventory which had cost $210,000 had been damaged in a flood (on 15 September 2014) and are not expected to achieve their normal selling price which is calculated to achieve a gross profit margin of 30%. The sale of these goods will be handled by an agent who sells them at 80% of the normal selling price and charges Razor a commission of 25%.
At what value will the closing inventory of Razor be reported in its statement of financial position as at 30 September 2014?
A $1 millionB $790,000C $180,000D $970,000
Answer D
The normal selling price of damaged inventory is $300,000 (210/70%).This will now sell for $240,000 (300,000 x 80%), and have a NRV of $180,000 (240 – (240 x 25%)). The expected loss on the inventory is $30,000 (210 cost – 180 NRV) and therefore the inventory should be valued at $970,000 (1,000 – 30).

Illustration 1I. A change in the IFRS relating to leases means that an entity that used to recognise a
lease on an item of plant as an operating lease must now recognise it as a finance lease.
II. Depreciation has previously been charged by the entity at 25% straight line but has decided to change this to 30% reducing balance.
III. The entity had previously charged certain overheads within administration expenses but now has decided to show them within cost of sales.
IV. The method used by the entity to measure the value of it’s inventory has been changed.
For each of the above is it a change in accounting policy or a change in accounting estimate?
Solution
The recognition and presentation of the lease has changed meaning this is a change in accounting policy.
There is no change in recognition, measurement or the basis of measurement so this is a change in an accounting estimate.
The presentation of the overheads has changed so this is a change in policy.
The measurement basis of inventory has changed so this is a change in accounting policy.

Mind Map 32 - Foreign Exchange (IAS 21)
�205
Illustration 1Zian is located in a foreign country and imports its raw materials at a price which is normally denominated in dollars. The product is sold locally at selling prices denominated in dinars, and determined by local competition. All selling and operating expenses are incurred locally and paid in dinars. Distribution of profits is determined by the parent company, Ribby. Zian has financed part of its operations through a $4 million loan from Hall which was raised on 1 June 2007. This is included in the financial assets of Hall and the non-current liabilities of Zian. Zian’s management have a considerable degree of authority and autonomy in carrying out the operations of Zian and other than the loan from Hall, are not dependent upon group companies for finance.
Required
Discuss and apply the principles set out in IAS 21 ‘The effects of changes in foreign exchange rates’ in order to determine the functional currency of Zian.
(8 marks)
�206
Solution to Illustration 1The functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (IAS21). The primary economic environment in which an entity operates is normally the one in which it primarily generates and expends cash.
An entity’s management considers the following factors in determining its functional currency (IAS21):(i)the currency that dominates the determination of the sales prices; and (ii) the currency that most influences operating costs
The currency that dominates the determination of sales prices will normally be the currency in which the sales prices for goods and services are denominated and settled. It will also normally be the currency of the country whose competitive forces and regulations have the greatest impact on sales prices. In this case it would appear that currency is the dinar as Zian sells its products locally and the prices are determined by local competition. However, the currency that most influences operating costs is in fact the dollar, as Zian imports goods which are paid for in dollars although all selling and operating expenses are paid in dinars. The emphasis is, however, on the currency of the economy that determines the pricing of transactions, as opposed to the currency in which transactions are denominated.
Factors other than the dominant currency for sales prices and operating costs are also considered when identifying the functional currency. The currency in which an entity’s finances are denominated is also considered. Zian has partly financed its operations by raising a $4 million loan from Hall but it is not dependent upon group companies for finance. The focus is on the currency in which funds from financing activities are generated and the currency in which receipts from operating activities are retained.
Additional factors include consideration of the autonomy of a foreign operation from the reporting entity and the level of transactions between the two. Zian operates with a considerable degree of autonomy both financially and in terms of its management. Consideration is given to whether the foreign operation generates sufficient functional cash flows to meet its cash needs which in this case Zian does as it does not depend on the group for finance.
It would be said that the above indicators give a mixed view but the functional currency that most faithfully represents the economic effects of the underlying transactions, events, and conditions is the dinar, as it most affects sales prices and is most relevant to the financing of an entity. The degree of autonomy and independence provides additional supporting evidence in determining the entity’s functional currency.

Mind Map 37 - Managing Receivables & Payables
�238
Illustration 1
Credit sales in the year are currently 1200 and the company offers 3 month credit terms. The overdraft rate for the company is 10%.
New Policy
2% discount if paid in less than 10 days
2 month terms for everyone else.
20% will take the discount
Should the new policy be implemented?
Solution
Method = Compare the savings through reducing receivables by offering the discount to the profit lost by doing so.
Working
Receivables Before 1200 x 3/12 300
Receivables After 20% who take discount
(1200 x 10/365) x 20%
7
Everyone else (1200 x 2/12) x 80% 160
167
Saving = (Reduction in receivables x Overdraft rate)
(300 - 167) x 10% 13
Lost Profit = Amount of Discount (1200 x 20%) x 2% 4.8
The saving made is greater than the profit lost so the discount should be offered
�239
Illustration 2Receivables are currently $4,600,000. Sales are $37,400,000
A factor has offered to take over the administration of trade receivables on a non-recourse basis for an annual fee of 3% of credit sales.
The factor will maintain a trade receivables collection period of 30 days and Gorwa Co will save $100,000 per year in administration costs and $350,000 per year in bad debts.
A condition of the factoring agreement is that the factor would advance 80% of the face value of receivables at an annual interest rate of 7%. The current overdraft rate is 5%
Solution
Difference on Receivables
Current Receivables 4,600,000

Cost of making an order of $12.
Cost of one unit $10.
Holding cost per year of 10% of the purchase price of the goods.
Calculate the EOQ & check that it is correct.
Solution
Working
Annual Demand 1200 x 12 14400
Holding Cost $10 x 10% 1
Ordering Cost 12
EOQ √(2 x 12 x 14,400) / 1 588

Illustration 2Company orders when the level of stock reaches 50,000
It takes 4 weeks to receive new stock from the time of ordering.
The company uses 7,500 units on average per week.
Calculate the buffer stock.
Solution
Buffer Stock = Re-order level less usage in lead time
Re-order level 50,000
Lead Time 4 weeks
Usage per week 7,500
50,000 - (4 x 7,500) 20,000
�245
Illustration 3The current policy is to order 100,000 units when the inventory level falls to 35,000 units. Forecast demand to meet production requirements during the next year is 625,000 units. The cost of placing and processing an order is €250, while the cost of holding a unit in stores is €0·50 per unit per year. Both costs are expected to be constant during the next year. Orders are received two weeks after being placed with the supplier. You should assume a 50-week year and that demand is constant throughout the year.
Calculate EOQ with buffer stock
Solution
Working
Buffer Stock (Re-order level - (Lead time x amount used per week))
35,000 - (2 weeks x 625,000/50)
10,000
EOQ ignoring buffer stock √ (2 x 250 x 625,000 / 0.5)

Illustration 1 Jenkins Co. is preparing a cash flow forecast for the next four months. They have an overdraft facility of $10,000 available and the following information is relevant:
1. Sales will be $40,000 in month one and are expected to rise by 5% per month. 2. Wages will be $15,000 in month one and are expected to rise by $500 per month. 3. Other costs will be $10,000 in month one and are expected to rise by $1000 per month. 4. Capital investment of $80,000 for new Plant is scheduled to occur in month 2. 5. An interim payment of 50% of the dividends declared for the year $240,000 will be paid
in month 3. 6. The opening balance on cash is $132,000.
Prepare the cash flow forecast and advise Jenkins on the implications as well as possible action to take in response.
�259
Solution
Implications - By month 3 the cash balance has fallen to $34,000. - This is below the level that can be covered through the overdraft of $10,000. - The operating cash flows are positive so this is not a trading problem. - The cause is the capital investment and the dividend payment. - This is a severe liquidity risk to the company. - Action will need to be taken to prevent it.
Actions - Postpone the Capital investment. - Finance the capital investment in another way e.g. lease rather than buy. - Postpone the dividend payment for one month meaning that the balance is -$16,000 at
it’s worst point. Ask to increase the overdraft to $16,000 and within the next month the positive trading income should wipe out the negative balance.
- Reduce the dividend.
