Accounting Financial Accounting

Sample Paper 3 – Suggested Solutions




NOTE: This sample paper and solutions have been prepared to reflect the provisions of
FRS 100 – FRS 102

Advanced Financial Accounting Sample Paper 3 Page 16 of 28



Solution to question 1


(i)

(a)

The FRC developed the Conceptual Framework to provide guidance for the application
of generally accepted accounting principles to financial transactions. The principles of
the framework form the basis for the development of new accounting standards and
the assessment and revision where necessary of existing ones. The Framework is not
an accounting standard however new standards issued following the publication of the
Framework must be in line with the principles of the Framework. Going forward the
incidents of conflict between the Framework and accounting standards will reduce
thus leading to increased harmonisation in financial accounting regulations. However
as the Framework is not an accounting standard it cannot override the principles of an
existing accounting standard, where a conflict exists the principles as laid out in the
standard must be complied with.

The framework also provides very important definitions which were not previously
defined, including the definitions of such frequently used terms such as asset and
liability. This eliminates the need to provide such definitions in each standard thereby
decreasing the time it takes to develop and publish new standards.

Overall, the Framework promotes a more consistent regulatory environment which
should help not only standard setting bodies but also preparers of financial statements
and users of such financial information.

(b)Definitions

Going concern
Financial statements are normally prepared on the assumption that an entity is a going
concern and will continue in operation for the foreseeable future. Foreseeable future is
considered to be twelve months from the date the financial statements are signed. In the
event that management decide that it is no longer appropriate to prepare the financial
statements on a going concern basis this must be disclosed.

Accruals
Financial statements, with the exception of the cash flow statement, are prepared on the
accruals basis of accounting where transactions are recognised in the period in which they
occur (are earned or accrued) irrespective of when the cash flow arising from these
transactions occurs.

Asset
An asset is a resource controlled by an entity as a result of past events and from which
future economic benefits are expected to flow to the entity. Future economic benefits
represent the potential to contribute to the cash flow of the entity. Examples of assets
include premises, equipment, receivables.

Liability

Advanced Financial Accounting Sample Paper 3 Page 17 of 28



A liability is a present obligation of the entity arising from past events, the settlement of
which is expected to result in an outflow of resources from the entity. Examples of
liabilities include payables, finance lease obligations, accruals.

(ii)
Accounting Policies

FRS 102 defines Accounting Policies as “the specific principles, bases, conventions, rules
and practices applied by an entity in preparing financial statements.”

An entity should change an accounting policy only if the change:
 is required by a Standard or an Interpretation, or
 results in the financial statements providing reliable and more relevant
information about the effects of transactions, other events or conditions
on the entity’s financial position, financial performance or cash flows.

Accounting Estimates

Accounting estimates involve judgements on the uncertainties inherent in business
activities which cannot be measured with precision but only estimated.

Examples of items may which require accounting estimates are:

 Provision for bad and doubtful debts
 Inventory obsolescence
 Useful life of depreciable assets

(2) C (85,000 * 365 / 1,250,000)

(3) B (170,000 +80,000+30,000)/(85,000+60,000+70,000+25,000)

(4) B (140,000 + 1,250,000 – 170,000) / ((140,000 + 170,000) /2)

(5) C (2,100,000 – (140,000 + 1250,000 – 170,000) = 880,000 *100/210,000
