4. MANNER OF DISCLOSURE
All significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation and presentation of
financial statements should be disclosed.
The disclosure of the significant accounting policies as such should form part of the
financial statements and the significant accounting policies should normally be
disclosed in one place.
Note
The following are not changes in accounting policies:

previously occurring events or transactions, e.g., introduction of a formal retirement gratuity
scheme by an employer in place of ad hoc ex-gratia payments to employees on retirement;
b) The adoption of a new accounting policy for events or transactions which did not occur
previously or that were immaterial.
7. COST FORMULA—
(a) FIFO Method
(b) Specific identification method
(c) Standard retail price method

Case 1 Case 2
Note 4: Replacement Cost of Raw material means current cost of Raw material.
9. COST OF JOINT AND BY PRODUCT
Allocate cost of joint product on separation stage by rational and consistent basis.
By product is to be valued at his NRV
NRV of by product is to be deducted from cost of main product in order to calculate cost of
main product

Note 4
It may be appropriate to aggregate individually insignificant items, such as moulds, tools and dies
and to apply the criteria to the aggregate value.
An enterprise may decide to expense an item which could otherwise have been included as PPE,
because the amount of the expenditure is not material.

OVERVIEW OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS Unit - 2 | 3.34
AS 1
Question 1—
What are the three fundamental accounting assumptions recognised by Accounting Standard (AS)?
Briefly describe each one of them.
Answer—
Accounting Standard (AS) 1 recognizes three fundamental accounting assumptions. These are as
follows:
(I) Going Concern:
The financial statements are normally prepared on the assumption that an enterprise will
continue its operations in the foreseeable future and neither there is intention, nor there is
need to materially curtail the scale of operations.
(II) Consistency:
The principle of consistency refers to the practice of using same accounting policies for
similar transactions in all accounting periods unless the change is required
a. By a statute,
b. By an accounting standard or
c. For more appropriate presentation of financial statements.
(III) Accrual basis of accounting:
Under this basis of accounting, transactions are recognised as soon as they occur, whether or
not cash or cash equivalent is actually received or paid.
Question 2—
Mention few areas in which different accounting policies are followed by companies.
Answer—
Following are the examples of the areas in which different accounting policies may be adopted by
different enterprises:
i. Valuation of Stock
ii. Valuation of Goodwill
iii. Valuation of Investment
iv. Treatment of Government grant
v. Treatment of retirement benefits
vi. Treatment of Long term service contract
vii. Conversion of Foreign Country Transaction
viii. Treatment of life time membership fee
ix. Method of cash flow statement etc.
AS 2
Question 3—
"In determining the cost of inventories, it is appropriate to exclude certain costs and recognize them
as expenses in the period in which they are incurred". Provide examples of such costs as per AS 2
"Valuation of Inventories?
Answer—
As per AS 2 "Valuation of Inventories?, certain costs are excluded from the cost of the inventories
and are recognised as expenses in the period in which incurred. Examples of such costs are:
a) Abnormal amount of wasted materials, labour, or other production costs;
b) Storage costs, unless those costs are necessary in the production process prior to a further
production stage;
c) Administrative overheads that do not contribute to bringing the inventories to their present
location and condition; and
d) Selling and distribution costs.
e) Borrowing Cost (Unless Permitted by AS 16)
Question 4—
The company X Ltd., has to pay for delay in cotton clearing charges. The company up to 31.3.2014
has included such charges in the valuation of closing stock. This being in the nature of interest, X Ltd.
decided to exclude such charges from closing stock for the year 2014-15. This would result in
decrease in profit by ` 5 lakhs. Comment.
Answer—
As per para 12 of AS 2 (revised), interest and other borrowing costs are usually considered as not
relating to bringing the inventories to their present location and condition and are therefore,
usually not included in the cost of inventories.
However, X Ltd. was in practice to charge the cost for delay in cotton clearing in the closing stock.
As X Ltd. decided to change this valuation procedure of closing stock, this treatment will be
considered as a change in accounting policy and such fact to be disclosed as per AS 1.
Therefore, any change in amount mentioned in financial statement, which will affect the financial
position of the company should be disclosed properly as per AS 1, AS 2 and AS 5.
Also a note should be given in the annual accounts that, had the company followed earlier system
of valuation of closing stock, the profit before tax would have been higher by ` 5 lakhs.
Question 5—
On 31st March 2013 a business firm finds that cost of a partly finished unit on that date is ` 530. The
unit can be finished in 2013-14 by an additional expenditure of ` 310. The finished unit can be sold
for ` 750 subject to payment of 4% brokerage on selling price. The firm seeks your advice regarding
the amount at which the unfinished unit should be valued as at 31st March, 2013 for preparation of
final accounts.
Answer—
Valuation of unfinished unit
`
Net selling price 750
Less: Estimated cost of completion (310)
440
Less: Brokerage (4% of 750) (30)
Net Realisable Value 410
Cost of inventory 530
Value of inventory (Lower of cost and net realisable value) 410
AS 3
Question 7—
What are the main features of the Cash Flow Statement? Explain with special reference to AS 3.
Answer—
According to AS 3 (Revised) on "Cash Flow Statement", cash flow statement deals with the
provision of information about the historical changes in cash and cash equivalents of an enterprise
during the given period from operating, investing and financing activities.
Cash flows from operating activities can be reported using either
a) The direct method, whereby major classes of gross cash receipts and gross cash payments are
disclosed; or
b) The indirect method, whereby net profit or loss is adjusted for the effects of transactions of
non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or
payments, and items of income or expense associated with investing or financing cash flows.
As per para 42 of AS 3 (Revised), an enterprise should disclose the components of cash and cash
equivalents and should present a reconciliation of the amounts in its cash flow statement with the
equivalent items reported in the balance sheet.
A cash flow statement when used in conjunction with the other financial statements, provides
information that enables users to evaluate the changes in net assets of an enterprise, its financial
structure (including its liquidity and solvency), and its ability to affect the amount and timing of
cash flows in order to adapt to changing circumstances and opportunities.
This statement also enhances the comparability of the reporting of operating performance by
different enterprises because it eliminates the effects of using different accounting treatments for
the same transactions and events.
AS 10
Question 8—
What are depreciable assets as per Accounting Standard-10? Explain why AS 10 does not apply to
Land.
Answer—
As per AS 10 "PPE', depreciable assets are the assets which are expected to be used during more
than one accounting period; and
Have a limited useful life; and
Are held by an enterprise for use in the production or supply of goods and services, for rental to
others, or for administrative purposes and not for the purpose of sale in the ordinary course of
business.
AS 10 does not apply to 'land' as land is considered to have unlimited useful life. Therefore, it is
not appropriate to charge depreciation on land.
Question 9—
A machinery costing ` 20 lakhs has useful life for 5 years. At the end of 5 years its scrap value would
be ` 2 lakhs. How much depreciation is to be charged in the books of the company as per Accounting
Standard 10?
Answer—
Calculation of depreciation as per Straight Line Method
`
Cost of machinery 20,00,000
Less: Scrap value at the end of its useful life (i.e. after 5 years) (2,00,000)
Amount to be written off during the useful life of the machinery 18,00,000
Useful life of the machinery 5 years
Depreciation to be provided each year (` 18,00,000 / 5 years) ` 3,60,000
Question 10—
MIs Progressive Company Limited has not charged depreciation for the year ended on 31st March,
2015, in respect of a spare bus purchased during the financial year 201 4-15 and kept ready by the
company for use as a stand-by, on the ground that, it was not actually used during the year. State your
views with reference to Accounting Standard 10 "PPE".
Answer—
According to AS 10, "PPE'', depreciation is a measure of the wearing out, consumption or other
loss of value of a depreciable assets arising from use, effluxion of time or obsolescence through
technology and market changes.
Accordingly, depreciation may arise even the asset is not used in the current year but was ready
for use in that year.
The need for using the stand by bus may not have arisen during the year but that does not imply
that the useful life of the bus has not been affected.
Therefore, non-provision of depreciation on the ground that the bus was not used during the year
is not tenable. So, depreciation should be changed on Spare Parts.
Question 11—
A computer costing ` 60,000 is depreciated on straight line basis, assuming 10 years working life and
Nil residual value, for three years. The estimate of remaining useful life after third year was
reassessed at 5 years. Calculate depreciation as per the provisions of Accounting Standard 10 "PPE".
Answer—
Depreciation per year = ` 60,000 / 10 = ` 6,000
Depreciation on SLM charged for three years = ` 6,000 × 3 years = ` 18,000
Book value of the computer at the end of third year = ` 60,000 - ` 18,000 = ` 42,000.

OVERVIEW OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS Unit - 2 | 3.40
Remaining useful life as per previous estimate = 7 years
Remaining useful life as per revised estimate = 5 years
Depreciation from the fourth year onwards = ` 42,000 / 5 = ` 8,400 per annum
Question 12
Narmada Ltd. purchased an existing bottling unit from Kaveri Ltd. Kaveri Ltd. followed straight line
method of charging depreciation on machinery of the sold unit whereas Narmada Ltd. followed
written down value method in its other units. The directors of Narmada Ltd. want to continue to
charge depreciation for the acquired unit in Straight Line Method which is not consistent with the
WDV method followed in other units. Discuss the contention of the directors with reference to the
Accounting Standard 10. Further during the year, Narmada Ltd. set up a new plant on coastal land. In
view of the corrosive climate, the Company felt that its machine life is reducing faster. Can the
Company charge a higher rate of depreciation?
Answer–
According to AS 10 "PPE'', there are several methods of allocating depreciation over the useful
life of the assets.
The management of a business selects the most appropriate method(s) based on various important
factors e.g., (i) type of asset, (ii) the nature of the use of such asset and (iii) circumstances
prevailing in the business.
A combination of more than one method is sometimes used.
A company may adopt different methods of depreciation for different types of assets, provided the
same methods are followed consistently.
Thus Narmada Ltd. can continue to charge depreciation for the acquired unit as per straight line
method.
The statute governing an enterprise may provide the basis for computation of the depreciation.
For example, the Companies Act lays down the rates of depreciation in respect of various assets.
Where the managements estimate of the useful life of an asset of the enterprise is shorter
than that envisaged under the provisions of the relevant statute, the depreciation provision is
appropriately computed by applying a higher rate.
Therefore, in the given case, the Company can charge higher rates of depreciation based on its
estimate of the useful life of machinery, provided that such estimate is not less than the rate
prescribed by the Companies Act, for that class of assets.
However, such higher depreciation rates and/or the reduced useful lives of the assets should be
disclosed by way of notes to the accounts in the Financial Statements.
Question 13
On 01.04.2010 a machine was acquired at ` 4,00,000. The machine was expected to have a useful life
of 10 years. The residual value was estimated at 10% of the original cost. At the beginning of the
4th year, an attachment was made to the machine at a cost of ` 1,80,000 to enhance its
capacity. The attachment was expected to have a useful life of 10 years and zero terminal value.
During the same time the original machine was revalued upwards by ` 90,000 and remaining useful
life was reassessed at 9 years and residual value was reassessed at NIL.
Find depreciation for the fourth year, if
(i) Attachment retains its separate identity.
(ii) Attachment becomes integral part of the machine
Depreciation of Attachment
`
Original cost of Attachment as on 01.04.2013 1,80,000
Useful life 10Years
Depreciation per year from 2013-14 18,000
Depreciation for the year 2013-14
(i) If Attachment retains its separate identity:
Depreciation of Original Machine ` 42,444
Depreciation of Attachment ` 18,000
Total Depreciation for 2013-14 ` 60,444
(ii) If Attachment becomes integral part of the Machine:
Total value of Machine as on 01.04.2013
Original Machine at revalued cost (W.N.1) ` 3,82,000
Cost of attachment ` 1,80,000
` 5,62,000
Useful life 9 Years
Depreciation for 2013-14 ` 62,444
Question 14—
A machinery with a useful life of 6 years was purchased on 1st April, 2012 for ` 1,50,000.
Depreciation was provided on straight line method for first three years considering a residual value of
10% of cost.
In the beginning of fourth year the company reassessed the remaining useful life of the machinery at 4
years and residual value was estimated at 5% of original cost.
The accountant recalculated the revised depreciation historically and charged the difference to profit
and loss account. You are required to comment on the treatment by accountant and calculate the
depreciation to be charged for the fourth year.
Answer—
As per AS 10 "PPE", when there is a revision of the estimated useful life of an asset, the
unamortized depreciable amount should be charged over the revised remaining useful life.
Accordingly revised depreciation shall be calculated prospectively.
VIDYA SAGAR CAREER INSTITUTE LIMITED
Mobile : 93514-68666 Phone : 7821821250-53
OVERVIEW OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS Unit - 2 | 3.42
Thus, the treatment done by the accountant regarding recalculating the revised depreciation
historically i.e. retrospectively is incorrect.
As per AS10, if the depreciable assets are revalued, the provision for depreciation should be based
on the revalued amount and on the estimate of the remaining useful lives of such assets.
In case the revaluation has a material effect on the amount of depreciation, the same should be
disclosed separately in the year in which revaluation is carried out.
Calculation of Depreciation
Depreciation per year charged for first three years= ` (1,50,000 - 15,000) / 6 = ` 22,500
WDV of the machine at the beginning of the fourth year = ` 1,50,000 - (` 22,500× 3) = ` 82,500
Depreciable amount after reassessment of residual vale = ` 82,500 - (1,50,000 x 5%) = ` 75,000
Remaining useful life as per revised estimate = 4 years
Depreciation from the fourth year onwards = ` 75,000 / 4 = ` 18,750
Question 15—
During the current year 2014-15, X Limited made the following expenditure relating to its plant
building:
` in lakhs
Routine Repairs 4
Repairing 1
Partial replacement of roof tiles 0.5
Substantial improvements to the electrical wiring system which will increase efficiency 10
What amount should be capitalized?
Answer—
As per of AS 10 "PPE", expenditure that increases the future benefits from the existing asset
beyond its previously assessed standard of performance is included in the gross book value, e.g.,
an increase in capacity.
Hence, in the given case, Repairs amounting ` 5 lakhs and Partial replacement of roof tiles should
be charged to profit and loss statement.
` 10 lakhs incurred for substantial improvement to the electrical writing system which will
increase efficiency should be capitalized.
Question 16—
During the year 2014-15, P Limited incurred the following expenses on machinery:
` 2.50 lacs as routine repairs and ` 75,000 on partial replacement of a part.` 7 lacs on replacement of
part of a machinery which will improve the efficiency of the machine. Which amount should be
capitalized as per AS 10?
Answer—
As per AS 10 "PPE", only those expenditures that increase the future benefits from the existing
assets, is to be included in the gross book value. Example: Increase in capacity.
Hence, in the given case, amount of ` 3.25 lacs spent on repairs and partial replacement of a part
of the machinery should be charged to Profit and Loss Account as they will help in maintaining
the capacity but will not improve the efficiency of the machine.
However, ` 7 lacs incurred on replacement of a part of the machinery, which will increase the
efficiency, should be capitalized by inclusion in the gross book value of assets.
Question 17—
During the year MIs Progressive Company Limited made additions to its factory by using its own
workforce, at a cost of ` 4,50,000 as wages and materials. The lowest estimate from an outside
contractor to carry out the same work was ` 6,00,000. The directors contend that, since they are fully
entitled to employ an outside contractor, it is reasonable to debit the Factory Building Account with
` 6,00,000. Comment whether the directors' contention is right in view of
Question 24—
Briefly explain the treatment of following items as per relevant accounting standards:
(i) An expense of ` 5 crores was incurred on a Machine towards its Repairs and Maintenance. The
accountant wants to capitalize the same considering the significance of amount spent.
(ii) A plant was ready for commercial production on 01.04.2014 but could commence actual
production only on 01.06.2014. The company incurred ` 50 Iakhs as administrative expenditure
during the period of which 20% was allocable to the plant. The accountant added ` 10 lakhs to
cost of plant.
AS 11
Question 25—
Beekay Ltd. purchased fixed assets costing ` 5,000 lakh on 01.04.2012 payable in foreign currency
(US$) on 05.04.2013. Exchange rate of 1 US$ = ` 50.00 and ` 54.98 as on 01.04.2012 and
31.03.2013respectively.
The company also obtained a soft loan of US$ 1 lakh on 01.04.2012 payable in three annual equal
instalments. First instalment was due on 01.05.2013.
You are required to state, how these transactions would be accounted for in the books of accounts
ending 31st March, 2013.
Answer—
As per AS 11 (Revised) 'The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates', exchange
differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on reporting an enterprise's monetary
items at rates different from those at which they were initially recorded during the period, or
reported in previous financial statements, should be recognised as income or as an expense in the
period in which they arise.
However, Ministry of Corporate Affairs has recently amended AS 11 through a notification.
As per the notification, exchange difference arising on reporting of long-term foreign currency
monetary items at rates different from those at which they were initially recorded during the
period, or reported in previous financial statements, in so far as they relate to requisition of
depreciable capital asset, can be added to or deducted from cost of asset.
The MCA has given an option for the enterprises to capitalize the exchange differences arising on
reporting of long term foreign currency monetary items till 31st March, 2020.
Thus the company can capitalize the exchange differences arising due to long term loans linked
with the acquisition of fixed assets.
Transaction 1:
Calculation of exchange difference on fixed assets
Foreign Exchange Liability == US $ 100 lakhs.
Exchange Difference = US $ 100 lakhs x (` 54.98 - ` 50) = ` 498 lakhs.
Loss due to exchange difference amounting ` 498 lakhs will be capitalised and added in the carrying
value of fixed assets. Depreciation on the unamortised amount will be provided in the remaining years
Transaction 2:
Soft loan exchange difference (US $ 1 lakh i.e` 50 lakhs) Value of loan 31.3.13 US $ 1 lakh x 54.98
= ` 54,98,000
AS 11 also provides that in case of liability designated as long-term foreign currency monetary item
(having a term of 12 months or more at the time of origination) the exchange difference is to be
accumulated in the Foreign Currency Monetary Item Translation Difference (FCMITD) and should
be written off over the useful life of such long-term liability, by recognition as income or expenses in
each of such periods.
Exchange difference between reporting currency (INR) and foreign currency (USD) as on 31.03.2013
= US$1.00 lakh X ` (54.98 - 50) = ` 4.98 lakh.
Loan account is to be increased to 54.98 Iakh and FCMITD account is to be debited by 4.98 lakh.
Since loan is repayable in 3 equal annual instalments, ` 4.98 lakh/3 = ` 1.66 lakh is to be charged in
Profit and Loss Account for the year ended 31st March, 2013 and balance in FCMITD A/c ` (4.98
lakh - 1.66 lakh) = ` 3.32 lakh is to be shown on the 'Equity & Liabilities' side of the Balance Sheet as
a negative figure under the head 'Reserve and Surplus' as a separate line item.
Note:The above answer is given on the basis that the company has availed the option under para 46A
of AS 11
(b) As per AS 11 on 'The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates', all foreign currency
transactions should be recorded by applying the exchange rate on the date of transactions
Thus, goods purchased on 1.1.2011 and corresponding creditor would be recorded at `
4,50,000 (i.e. $10,000 × ` 45)
According to the standard, at the balance sheet date all monetary transactions should be
reported using the closing rate. Thus, creditor of US $10,000 on 31.3.2011 will be reported at
` 4,40,000 (i.e. $10,000 × ` 44) and exchange profit of ` 10,000 (i.e. 4,50,000 - 4,40,000)
should be credited to Profit and Loss account in the year 2010-11.
On 7.7.2011, creditor of $10,000 is paid at the rate of ` 43. As per AS 11, exchange
difference on settlement of the account should also be transferred to Profit and Loss account.
Therefore, ` 10,000 (i.e. 4,40,000 - 4,30,000) will be credited to Profit and Loss account in
the year 2011-12.
Question 27—

Question 31—
Explain the treatment of refund of Government Grants as per Accounting Standard 12.
Answer—
Para 11 of AS 12, "Accounting for Government Grants", explains treatment of government grants in
following situations:
(i) When government grant is related to revenue
(a) When deferred credit account has a balance: The amount of government grant refundable
will be adjusted against unamortized deferred credit balance remaining in respect of the
grant. To the extent that the amount refundable exceeds any such deferred credit the amount
is immediately charged to profit and loss account.
(b) Where no deferred credit account balance exists: The amount of government grant
refundable will be charged to profit and Loss account.
(ii) When government grant is related to specific fixed assets
(a) Where at the time of receipt, the amount of government grant reduced the cost of asset: The
amount of government grant refundable will increase the book value of the asset at the time
of refund.
(b) Where at the time of receipt, the amount of government grant was credited to "Deferred Grant
Account": The amount of government grant refundable will reduce unamortized balance of
deferred grant account and remaining refund debited to P & L A/c
(iii) When government grant is in the nature of Promoter's contribution
The amount of government grant refundable in part or in full on non-fulfillment of specific
conditions, the relevant amount recoverable by the government will be reduced from capital
reserve.
Note: A government grant that becomes refundable is treated as an extra-ordinary item as per AS 5.
Question 32—
Supriya Ltd. received a grant of ` 2,500 lakhs during the accounting year 2010-11 from government
for welfare activities to be carried on by the company for its employees. The grant prescribed
conditions for its utilization. However, during the year 2011-12, it was found that the conditions of
grants were not complied with and the grant had to be refunded to the government in full. Elucidate
the current accounting treatment, with reference to the provisions of AS-12.
Answer—
As per para 11 of AS 12 'Accounting for Government Grants', Government grants sometimes
become refundable because certain conditions are not fulfilled. A government grant that becomes
refundable is treated as an extraordinary item as per AS 5.
The amount refundable in respect of a government grant related to revenue is applied first against
any unamortized deferred credit remaining in respect of the grant. To the extent that the amount
refundable exceeds any such deferred credit, or where no deferred credit exists, the amount is
charged immediately to profit and loss statement.
In the present case, the amount of refund of government grant should be shown in the profit &
loss account of the company as an extraordinary item during the year 2011-12.
Question 33—
Santosh Ltd. has received a grant of ` 8 crores from the Government for setting up a factory in a
backward area. Out of this grant, the company distributed ` 2 crores as dividend. Also, Santosh Ltd.
received land free of cost from the State Government but it has not recorded it at all in the books as no
money has been spent. In the light of AS 12 examine, whether the treatment of both the grants is
correct.
AS 16
Question 36—
When capitalisation of borrowing cost should cease as per Accounting Standard 16?
Answer—
Capitalisation of borrowing costs should cease when substantially all the activities necessary to
prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are complete.
An asset is normally ready for its intended use or sale when its physical construction or
production is complete even though routine administrative work might still continue. If minor
modifications such as the decoration of a property to the user's specification, are all that are
outstanding, this indicates that substantially all the activities are complete.
When the construction of a qualifying asset is completed in parts and a completed part is capable
of being used while construction continues for the other parts, capitalisation of borrowing costs in
relation to a part should cease when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare that part
for its intended use or sale are complete.

11,00,000. During the year 2013-14, the company had invested idle fund out of money raised from
debentures in banks' fixed deposit and had earned an interest of ` 2,00,000.
Show the treatment of interest under Accounting Standard 16 and also explain nature of assets.
Answer—
According to para 6 of AS 16 "Borrowing Costs", borrowing costs that are directly attributable
to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset should be capitalised as part of
the cost of that asset. The amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation should be
determined in accordance with this Standard. Other borrowing costs should be recognised as an
expense in the period in which they are incurred.
Also para 10 of AS 16 "Borrowing Costs" states that to the extent that funds are borrowed
specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset, the amount of borrowing costs eligible
for capitalisation on that asset should be determined as the actual borrowing costs incurred on that
borrowing during the period less any income on the temporary investment of those borrowings.
Thus, eligible borrowing cost= ` 11,00,000 - ` 2,00,000 = ` 9,00,000
Question 41—
M/s. Ayush Ltd. began construction of a new building on 1st January, 2014. It obtained` 3 lakh

01.12.2014 ` 1,50,000
Building was completed on 31st December, 2014. Following the principles prescribed in AS 16
'Borrowing Cost', calculate the amount of interest to be capitalized and pass one Journal entry for
capitalizing the cost and borrowing in respect of the building.
Answer
(i) Computation of average accumulated expenses
`
` 3,00,000 x 12 / 12 = 3,00,000
` 3,50,000 x 9 / 12 = 2,62,500
` 5,50,000 x 6 / 12 = 2,75,000
` 1,50,000 x 1 / 12 = 12,500

WORKING NOTES:
1. Calculation of Sales Ratio
Let the average monthly sales of first four months = 100
and next five months = 200
Total sales of first four months = 100 × 4 = 400 and Total sales of next five months
= 200 × 5 = 1,000 The ratio of sales = 400 : 1,000 = 2 : 5
2. Rent
Till 31st December, 2013, rent was ` 1,200 p.a. i.e.`100 p.m. So, Pre-incorporation
rent = ` 100 × 4 months = ` 400
Post-incorporation rent = (`100 × 2 months) + (`250 × 3 months) = ` 950
3. Time ratio
Pre-incorporation period =1st July, 2013 to 31st Oct. 2013 = 4 months Post -
incorporation = 1 st November 2013 to 31st March 2014 = 5 months
= 4 months : 5 months
Thus, time ratio is 4:5

Insurance Claims for Loss of Stock
and Loss of Profit
MEANING/ CONCEPT OF INSURANCE:
• It is indemnity contract between two parties, i.e., insurer (insurance company) and insured (policy
holder).
• Policy holder will provide, premium to insurance company.
• Insurance company will provide monetary protection to policy holder for a certain future period
and specified probable risk of policy holder.
• Insurer will compensate for monitory loss incurred due to occurrence of event covered by the
policy.
• Chapter is given from policy holder’s point of view to find out amount of claim under certain
policies.
• Amount of claim will never exceed the policy amount.
• Amount of claim will never exceed the actual loss incurred.
• Policy taken to protect monetary loss against loss of stock is known as loss of stock policy.

Example 2:
Stock of DOF 5,00,000
Salvaged value of stock 2,00,000
Calculate amount of net claim is policy is taken for
(i) 8,00,000
(ii) 5,00,000
(iii) 2,00,000
Solution :
Calculation of loss of stock
Stock on DOF 5,00,000
Less : Salvaged stock 2,00,000
Loss of stock 3,00,000
Case 1:—
Policy Amount = 8,00,000
Insurable Amount (Stock on DOF) = 5,00,000
Over Insurance, it means average clause is not applied
Claim will be equal to loss of stock, i.e. Rs. 3,00,000
Case 2:—
Policy Amount = 5,00,000
Insurable Amount (Stock on DOF) = 5,00,000
It is a case of full insurance, it means average clause is not applied.
Claim will be equal to loss of stock , i.e. Rs. 3,00,000
• If actual disturbance period and IP covered by policy both are given, then lower of the two
will be IP for Calculation.
2. Annual Turnover :-
• 12 months sale just preceding date of fire.
• In other words, 12 months sales from the period ending on DOF.
3. Adjusted Annual Turnover(AAT) :-
• Annual Turnover adjusted with increasing/decreasing trend of sales.
4. G/P on Adjusted Turnover (GP on AAT) :-
• AAT × GP Rate
• It will be also insurable amount under loss of profit policy.
• Part of additional expenses admissible from insurance company is known as admissible expense.
CALCULATION OF CLAIM UNDER LOSS OF PROFIT POLICY
NP insured standing cost
Step 1 :— GP Rate 100
Net Sales
Note 10:-
• In the above formula, detail is to be taken for previous financial year.
• Adjust trend of GP rate if any, to calculate adjusted GP rate.
• Claim for loss of profit and fixed cost is calculated jointly because above formula
already includes NP and insured standing cost.
Step 2: — Calculation of short sales:—
Sales in previous year just corresponding IP XX
Add /Less : Increasing or decreasing trend in sales XX
Expected sales in IP if fire would have been not occurred (Standard Sales) XX
Less : Actual Sales in IP XX
Short Sales XX
Step 3 :- Loss of profit = short sales x GP Rate
Step 4 :- Admissible expenses (Additional cost of working)
(i) Actual Additional Expenses Incurred XX
(ii) GP on sales in IP due to additional expenditure
(sales in IP due to additional exp. X GP rate) XX
GPon AAT
(iii) Additional Expenses XX
GP on AAT uninsurd standing cost
Least of above XX
• In calculation of sub-point (ii) only that part of sales in IP is to be considered which occur due to
additional expenses.
Ignore
Calculation as follow:-
• If sales for different previous year are given then calculate percent increase/decrease in sales each
time (excluding current year) and thereafter calculate average % of increasing/decreasing trend in
sales.
• If same period sales is given for previous and current year (must be normal period) then
calculate percent increase/decrease in sales as a trend in sales.
Note 13:— Adjusted Annual Turnover(AAT):—
• Annual Turnover adjusted with trend of sales.
• If annual turnover already given in question then entire annual turnover needs to be trend adjusted.
• If annual turnover is not given in the question, then part of annual turnover relating to previous year
is to be trend adjusted and part of annual turnover relating to current year is not to be trend adjusted
assuming that it is already trend adjusted.

Question 6— (C.A. May 99)
X Ltd. has insured itself under a loss of profit policy for 3,63,000. The indemnity period
under the policy is six months. On 1st September, 2010 a fire occurred in the factory of X Ltd.
and the normal business was affected upto 1st March, 2011.
The following information is compiled for the year ended on 31 st March, 2010:
Sales 20,00,000
Insured standing charges 2,40,000
Uninsured standing charges 20,000
Net profit 1,20,000
Following further details of turnover are furnished.
(a) Turnover during the period of 12 months ending on the date of fire was 22,00,000.
(b) Turnover during the period of interruption was 2,25,000.
Since the policy-value is less than gross profit on adjusted annual tunover, the average clause is
applicable.
Hence the amount of claim = 1,25,000×( 3,63,000/ 4,84,000)
= 93,750
Question 7— (C.A. May 2012)
Ramda & Sons had taken out policies (without Average Clause) both against loss of stock and
loss of profit, for 2,10,000 and 3,20,000 respectively. A fire occurred on 1st July, 2011 and as
a result of which sales were seriously affected for a period of 3 months.

Type Guidelines
Under this convention, opening and closing assets are stated
at respective historical costs to ascertain opening and
Financial Capital closing equity.
Maintenance At If retained profit is greater than or equals to zero, the
Historical Cost capital is said to be maintained at historical costs.
This means the business will have enough funds to replace its
assets at historical costs. This is quite right as long as
prices do not rise.
Under this convention, opening and closing equity at
Financial Capital historical costs are restated at closing prices using average
Maintenance At price indices.
Current A positive retained profit by this method means the
Purchasing Power business has enough funds to replace its assets at average
closing price. This may not serve the purpose because prices
of all assets do not change at average rate in real situations.
Under this convention, the historical costs of opening and
closing assets are restated at closing prices using specific
price indices applicable to each asset.
Physical Capital The liabilities are also restated at a value of economic
Maintenance At resources to be sacrificed to settle the obligation at
Current Costs current date, i.e. closing date.
The opening and closing equity at closing current costs are
obtained as an excess of aggregate of current cost values of
assets over aggregate of current cost values of liabilities.
A positive retained profit by this method ensures retention
of funds for replacement of each asset at respective closing
prices.
Example 1
Balance sheet of a trader on 31st March, 20X1 is given below:
Liabilities ` Assets `
Capital 60,000 Fixed Assets 65,000
Profit and Loss Account 25,000 Stock 30,000

Trade payables 10,000 Deferred costs 10,000
Bank 5,000
1,30,000 1,30,000
Additional information:
i. The remaining life of fixed assets is 5 years. The pattern of use of the asset is even. The net
realisable value of fixed assets on 31.03.X2 was `60,000.
ii. The trader’s purchases and sales in 20X1-X2 amounted to `4 lakh and `4.5 lakh
respectively.
iii. The cost and net realisable value of stock on 31.03.X2 were `32,000and `40,000
respectively.
iv. Expenses for the year amounted to `14,900.
v. Deferred cost is amortised equally over 4 years.
vi. Debtors on 31.03.X2 is `25,000, of which `2,000 is doubtful. Collection of another `4,000
depends on successful re-installation of certain product supplied to the customer.
vii. Closing trade payable is `12,000, which is likely to be settled at 5% discount.
viii. Cash balance on 31.03.X2 is `37,100.
ix. There is an early repayment penalty for the loan `2,500.

Example 2
(a) A trader purchased article A on credit in period 1 for `50,000.
(b) He also purchased article B in period 1 for `2,000cash.
(c) The trader sold article A in period 1 for `60,000 in cash.
(d) He also sold article B in period 1 for `2,500 on credit.
Profit and Loss Account of the trader by two basis of accounting are shown below. A look at the
cash basis Profit and Loss Account will convince any reader of the irrationality of cash basis of
accounting.
Credit purchase of article A and cash purchase of article B and cash sale of article Aand credit sale
of article B is recognised in period 1 only.
62,500 62,500
Example 3
A Ltd. has entered into a binding agreement with P Ltd. to buy a custom-made machine
`40,000. At the end of 20X1-X2, before delivery of the machine, A Ltd. had to change its
method of production.
The new method will not require the machine ordered and it will be scrapped after delivery.
The expected scrap value is nil.
A liability is recognised when outflow of economic resources in settlement of a present
obligation can be anticipated and the value of outflow can be reliably measured. In the given
case, A Ltd. should recognise a liability of `40,000 to P Ltd.
When flow of economic benefit to the enterprise beyond the current accounting period is
considered improbable, the expenditure incurred is recognized as an expense rather than as
an asset.
In the present case, flow of future economic benefit from the machine to the enterprise is
improbable. The entire amount of purchase price of the machine should be recognised as an
expense.
The accounting entry is suggested below:
` `
Loss on change in production Method Dr. 40,000
To P Ltd. 40,000
(Loss due to change in production method)
Profit and loss A/c Dr. 40,000
To Loss on change in production method 40,000
Example 4
Suppose at the beginning of an accounting period, aggregate values of assets, liabilities and
equity of a trader are `5 lakh, `2 lakh and `3 lakh respectively.
Also suppose that the trader had the following transactions during the accounting period.
(a) Introduced capital `20,000.
This example given explains the definition of income. The equity increased by`29,000 during
the accounting period, due to (i) Capital introduction `20,000 and(ii) Income earned
`9,000 (Income from investment + Discount earned).
Incomes are therefore increases in equity without introduction of capital.
Example 5
Continuing with the example 4 given above, suppose the trader had the following further
transactions during the period:
Balance sheets of the trader after each transaction are shown below:
Assets Liabilities Equity
Transactions – =
`lakh `lakh `lakh
Opening 5.00 – 2.00 = 3.00
(a) Capital introduced 5.20 – 2.00 = 3.20
(b) Income from investments 5.28 – 2.00 = 3.28
(c) Settlement of liability 4.98 – 1.69 = 3.29
(d) Wages paid 4.96 – 1.69 = 3.27
(e) Rent Outstanding 4.96 – 1.70 = 3.26
(f) Drawings 4.92 – 1.70 = 3.22
Example 6
Mr. X purchased a machine on 1st January, 20X1 at `7,00,000. As per historical cost basis, he
has to record it at `7,00,000 i.e. the acquisition price.
As on 1.1.20X6, Mr. X found that it would cost `25,00,000 to purchase that machine. Mr. X also
took loan from a bank as on 20X1 `5,00,000 @ 18% p.a. repayable at the end of 15th year
together with interest.
As per historical cost, the liability is recorded at `5,00,000 at the amount or proceeds
received in exchange for obligation and asset is recorded at `7,00,000.
Example 7
A machine was acquired for $ 10,000 on deferred payment basis.
The rate of exchange on the date of acquisition was `49/$. The payments are to be made in 5
equal annual instalments together with 10% interest per year.
The current market value of similar machine in India is `5lakhs.
Current cost of the machine = Current market price = `5,00,000.
By historical cost convention, the machine would have been recorded at `4,90,000.
To settle the deferred payment on current date one must buy dollars at `49/$. The liability is
therefore recognised at `4,90,000 ($ 10,000 × `49).
Note that the amount of liability recognised is not the present value of future payments. This is
because, in current cost convention, liabilities are recognised at undiscounted amount.
Example 8
Carrying amount of a machine is `40,000 (Historical cost less depreciation). The machine is
expected to generate `10,000 net cash inflow.
The net realisable value (or net selling price) of the machine on current date is `35,000.
The enterprise’s required earning rate is 10% per year.
The enterprise can either use the machine to earn `10,000 for 5 years.
This is equivalent of receiving present value of `10,000 for 5 years at discounting rate 10% on
current date.
The value realised by use of the asset is called value in use. The value in use is the value of
asset by present value convention.
Value in use = `10,000 (0.909 + 0.826 + 0.751 + 0.683 + 0.621) = `37,900
Net selling price = `35,000
The present value of the asset is `37,900, which is called its recoverable value.
It is obviously not appropriate to carry any asset at a value higher than its recoverable value.
Thus the asset is currently overstated by `2,100 (`40,000 – `37,900).
Example 9
A trader commenced business on 01/01/20X1 with ` 12,000 represented by 6,000 units of a
certain product at ` 2 per unit.
During the year 20X1 he sold these units at ` 3 per unit and had withdrawn ` 6,000.
Thus: Opening Equity = ` 12,000 represented by 6,000 units at ` 2 per unit.
Closing Equity = ` 12,000 (` 18,000 – ` 6,000) represented entirely by cash.
Retained Profit = ` 12,000 – ` 12,000 = Nil
The trader can start year 20X2 by purchasing 6,000 units at ` 2 per unit once again for selling
them at ` 3 per unit.
The whole process can repeat endlessly if there is no change in purchase price of the product.
Example 10
In the previous example (Example 9), suppose that the average price indices at the beginning
and at the end of year are 100 and 120 respectively.
Opening Equity = ` 12,000 represented by 6,000 units at ` 2 per unit.
Opening equity at closing price = (` 12,000 / 100) x 120 = ` 14,400 (6,000 x ` 2.40)
Closing Equity at closing price= ` 12,000 (` 18,000 – ` 6,000) represented entirely by cash.
Retained Profit = ` 12,000 – ` 14,400 = (–) ` 2,400
The negative retained profit indicates that the trader has failed to maintain his capital.
The available fund ` 12,000 is not sufficient to buy 6,000 units again at increased price ` 2.40
per unit.
In fact, he should have restricted his drawings to` 3,600 (` 6,000 – ` 2,400).
Had the trader withdrawn ` 3,600 instead of ` 6,000, he would have left with ` 14,400, the fund
required to buy 6,000 units at ` 2.40 per unit.
Example 11 (Physical capital maintenance)
In the previous example (Example 9) suppose that the price of the product at the end of year
is `2.50 per unit.
In other words, the specific price index applicable to the product is125.
Current cost of opening stock = (`12,000 / 100) x 125 = 6,000 x `2.50 = `15,000 Current cost of
closing cash = `12,000 (`18,000 – `6,000)
Opening equity at closing current costs = `15,000
Closing equity at closing current costs = `12,000 Retained Profit = `12,000 – `15,000 = (-)
`3,000
The negative retained profit indicates that the trader has failed to maintain his capital.
The available fund `12,000 is not sufficient to buy 6,000 units again at increased price `2.50
per unit.
The drawings should have been restricted to `3,000 (`6,000 – `3,000).
Had the trader withdrawn `3,000 instead of `6,000, he would have left with `15,000, the fund
required to buy 6,000 units at `2.50 per unit.
Capital maintenance can be computed under all three bases as shown below:
` `
Closing capital (At closing price) 12,000
Less: Capital to be maintained
Opening capital (At closing price) 14,400
Introduction (At closing price) Nil (14,400)
Retained profit (2,400)
Physical Capital Maintenance
` `
Closing capital (At current cost) ( 4800units) 12,000
Less: Capital to be maintained
Opening capital (At current cost)(6000 units) 15,000
Introduction (At current cost) Nil (15,000)
Loss resulting in non-maintenances of capital (3,000)

Explain in brief, the alternative measurement bases, for determining the value at which
an element can be recognized in the Balance Sheet or Statement of Profit and Loss.
Answer
Measurement is the process of determining money value at which an element
can be recognised in the balance sheet or statement of profit and loss.
The framework recognises four alternative measurement bases for the
purpose.
These bases relate explicitly to the valuation of assets and liabilities.

Question 4
Explain the purpose and status of the conceptual framework for preparation and
presentation of financial statements in brief.
Answer:
PURPOSE OF THE FRAMEWORK
The framework sets out the concepts underlying the preparation and presentation
of general-purpose financial statements prepared by enterprises for external
users.
The main purpose of the framework is to assist:
(a) Enterprises in preparation of their financial statements in compliance
with Accounting Standards and in dealing with the topics not yet
covered by any Accounting Standard,
(b) ASB in its task of development and review of Accounting Standards,
(c) ASB in promoting harmonisation of regulations, Accounting
Standards and procedures relating to the preparation and
presentation of financial statements by providing a basis for reducing
the number of alternative accounting treatments permitted by
Accounting Standards,
(d) Auditors in forming an opinion as to whether financial statements
conform to the Accounting Standards,
(e) Users in interpretation of financial statements,
(f) Those who are interested in the work of ASB with information about its
information to the formulation of Accounting Standards.
STATUS AND SCOPE OF THEFRAMEWORK
The framework applies to general-purpose financial statements (hereafter
referred to as ‘financial statements’ usually prepared annually for external users,
by all commercial, industrial and business enterprises, whether in public or private
sector.
The special purpose financial reports, for example computations prepared for
tax purposes are outside the scope of the framework.
Nevertheless, the framework may be applied in preparation of such reports, to the
extent not inconsistent with their requirements.
Nothing in the framework overrides any specific Accounting Standard.
In case of conflict between an Accounting Standard and the framework, the
requirements of the Accounting Standard will prevail over those of the
framework.
Question 5
What are the qualitative characteristics of the financial statements which improve the
usefulness of the information furnished therein?
Answer
a. Understandability
The financial statements should present information in a manner as to be
readily understandable by the users with reasonable knowledge of
business and economic activities and accounting.
b. Relevancy
It is not right to think that more information one discloses the better
it is.
A mass of irrelevant information creates confusion and can be even more
harmful than non-disclosure.
The financial statements should contain relevant information only.
Information, which is likely to influence the economic decisions by the
users, is said to be relevant.
Such information may help the users to evaluate past, present or
future events or may help in confirming or correcting past evaluations.
The relevance of a piece of information should be judged by its
materiality. A piece of information is said to be material if its
misstatement (i.e., omission or erroneous statement) can influence
economic decisions of a user.
c. Reliability
To be useful, the information must be reliable; that is to say, they must
be free from material error and bias.
The information provided are not likely to be reliable unless:
(a) Transactions and events reported are faithfully represented.
(b) Transactions and events are reported on the principle of
'substance over form.
(c) The reporting of transactions and events are neutral, i.e. free
from bias.
(d) Prudence is exercised in reporting uncertain outcome of
transactions or events.
(e) The information in financial statements must be complete.
d. Comparability
Comparison of financial statements is one of the most frequently used
and most effective tools of financial analysis.
The financial statements should permit both inter-firm and intra-firm
comparison. One essential requirement of comparability is disclosure of
financial effect of change in accounting policies.
Question 6
‘One of the characteristics of financial statements is neutrality’. Do you agree with this
statement?

Practical Questions
Question 1—
Explain Classification of activities (with two examples) as suggested in AS 3, to be used for
preparing a cash flow statements.
Answer—
AS 3 (Revised) on Cash Flow Statements requires that the cash flow statement should report cash
flows by operating, investing and financing activities.
(A) Operating activities are the principal revenue-producing activities of the enterprise and other
activities that are not investing or financing activities. Cash receipts from sale of goods and cash
payments to suppliers of goods are two examples of operating activities.
(B) Investing activities are acquisition and disposal of long-term assets and other investments not
included in cash equivalents. Payment made to acquire machinery and cash received for sale of
furniture are examples of investing activities.
(C) Financial activities are those activities that result in changes in the size and composition of the
owner's capital (including preference share capital in the case of a company) and borrowings of
the enterprise. Cash proceeds from issue of shares and cash paid to redeem debentures are two
examples of financing activities.
Question 2—
Explain the difference between direct and indirect methods of reporting cash flows from operating
activities with reference to Accounting Standard 3, (AS 3) revised.
Answer—
As per Para 18 of AS 3 (Revised) on Cash Flow Statements, an enterprise should report cash flows
from operating activities using either:
(A) The direct method, whereby major classes of gross cash receipts and gross cash payments are
disclosed; or
(B) the indirect method, whereby net profit or loss is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-
cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments, and
items of income or expense associated with investing or financing cash flows.
The direct method provides information which may be useful in estimating future cash flows and
which is not available under the indirect method and is, therefore, considered more appropriate than
the indirect method. Under the direct method, information about major classes of gross cash receipts
and gross cash payments may be obtained either:
a) from the accounting records of the enterprise; or
b) by adjusting sales, cost of sales (interest and similar income and interest expense and similar
charges for a financial enterprise) and other items in the statement of profit and loss for:
c) changes during the period in inventories and operating receivables and payables;
d) other non-cash items; and
e) other items for which the cash effects are investing or financing cash flows.
Under the indirect method, the net cash flow from operating activities is determined by adjusting net
profit or loss for the effects of:
a) changes during the period in inventories and operating receivables and payables;
b) non-cash items such as depreciation, provisions, deferred taxes and unrealised foreign exchange
gains and losses; and
c) all other items for which the cash effects are investing or financing cash flows.
Alternatively, the net cash flow from operating activities may be presented under the indirect method
by showing the operating revenues and expenses, excluding non-cash items disclosed in the
statement of profit and loss and the changes during the period in inventories and operating
receivables and payables.

Question 2—
Write short note on basis of allocation of common expenditure among different
departments.
Answer—
While preparing department accounts, expenses should be allocated among the different
departments on the basis of the following principles:
1. Expenses incurred specially for each department are charged directly thereto e.g., insurance
charges of stock held by a department.
2. Common expenses, the benefit of which is shared by all the departments and which are capable
of precise allocation, (e.g., rent, lighting expenses etc.) are distributed among the departments concerned
on some equitable · basis considered suitable in the circumstances of the case. Rent is charged to different
departments according to the floor area occupied by each department, having regard to any favourable
location specially allocated to a department. Lighting and heating expenses are distributed on the basis
of consumption of energy by each department and so on.

by facilitating them to take prudent and informed business decisions.
viii. Issue of AS
However, in 2016 the MCA has withdrawn AS 6. Hence, effectively there are
now only 27 notified Accounting Standards as per the Companies (Accounting
Standards) Rules, 2006 (as amended in 2016).
Each country has its own set of rules and regulations for accounting and
financial reporting. Therefore, when an enterprise decides to raise capital
from the markets other than the country in which it is located, the rules and
regulations of that other country will apply and this in turn will require that
the enterprise is in a position to understand the differences between the
rules governing financial reporting in the foreign country as compared to
its own country of origin. Therefore translation and re-instatements are of
utmost importance in a world that is rapidly globalizing in all ways.
The harmonization of financial reporting around the world will help to raise
confidence of investors generally in the information they are using to
make their decisions and assess their risks.
Also a strong need was felt by legislation to bring about uniformity,
rationalization comparability, transparency and adaptability in financial
statements.
Having a multiplicity of accounting standards around the world is against the
public interest.
If accounting for the same events and information produces different
reported number, depending on the system of standards that are being
used, then it is self-evident that accounting will be increasingly
discredited in the eyes of those using the numbers.
It created confusion, encourages error and facilitates fraud. The cure for
these ills is to have a single set of global standards, of the highest
quality, set in the interest of public.
Convergence facilitates accounting and reporting for companies with global
operations and eliminates some costly requirements say reinstatement of
financial statements.
It has the potential to create a new standard of accountability and greater
transparency, which are value of great significance to all market
participants including regulators. It reduces operational challenges for
accounting firms and focuses their value and expertise around an increasingly
unified set of standards.
It creates an unprecedented opportunity for standard setters and other
stakeholders to improve the reporting model.
For the companies with joint listing in both domestic and foreign country,
the convergence is very much significant.

Explain in brief the reasons for convergence of Indian Accounting Standards towards
global standards.

Each country has its own set of rules and regulations for accounting and
financial reporting. Therefore, when an enterprise decides to raise capital
from the markets other than the country in which it is located, the rules and

Question 5
Answer
Accounting Standards are the written policy documents issued by Government relating to
various aspects of measurement, treatment, presentation and disclosure of accounting
transactions and events.
Following are the objectives of Accounting Standards:
a) Accounting Standards harmonize the diverse accounting policies and practices
followed by different companies in India.
b) Accounting Standards facilitates the preparation of financial statements and make
them comparable.
c) Accounting Standards give a sense of faith and reliability to the users.
The main advantage of setting accounting standards are as follows:
a) Accounting Standards makes the financial statements of different companies
comparable which helps investors in decision making.
b) Accounting Standards prevent any misleading accounting treatment.
c) Accounting Standards prevent manipulation of data by the management.
Question 6
Answer
The Government of India in consultation with the ICAI decided to converge and not
to adopt IFRSs issued by the IASB.
The decision of convergence rather than adoption was taken after the detailed
analysis of IFRSs requirements and extensive discussion with various stakeholders.
Accordingly, while formulating IFRS-converged Indian Accounting Standards (Ind
AS), efforts have been made to keep these Standards, as far as possible, in line with
the corresponding IAS/IFRS and departures have been made where considered
absolutely essential.
Question 7
Answer
Question 8
Answer
A. Certain changes have been made considering the economic environment of the
country, which is different as compared to the economic environment presumed to
be in existence by IFRS. These differences are due to differences in economic
conditions prevailing in India. These differences which are in deviation to the
accounting principles and practices stated in IFRS, are commonly known as
‘Carve-outs’.
B. Additional guidance given in Ind AS over and above what is given in IFRS is
termed as ‘Carve in’.
Question 9
Briefly explain the process of issuance of Indian Accounting Standards.
Answer
Due to the recent stream of overseas acquisitions by Indian companies, there is need
for adoption of high quality standards to convince foreign enterprises about the
financial standing as also the disclosure and governance standards of Indian
acquirers.
The Government of India in consultation with the ICAI decided to converge and not
to adopt IFRSs issued by the IASB.
The decision of convergence rather than adoption was taken after the detailed
analysis of IFRSs requirements and extensive discussion with various
stakeholders.
The ICAI has worked towards convergence of global accounting standards by
considering the application of IFRS in Indian corporate environment.
Recognising the growing need of full convergence of Ind AS with IFRS, ICAI
constituted a Task Force to examine various issues involved.
Ind AS are issued by the Central Government of India under the supervision and
control of ASB of ICAI and in consultation with NFRA.
NFRA recommends these standards to the MCA and MCA has to spell out the
accounting standards applicable for companies in India.

2) ADDITIONAL NOTES
(1) Where an entity, being covered in Level II or Level III, had qualified for any
exemption or relaxation previously but no longer qualifies for the relevant
exemption or relaxation in the current accounting period, the relevant
standards or requirements become applicable from the current period and
the figures for the corresponding period of the previous accounting period
need not be revised merely by reason of its having ceased to be covered in
Level II or Level III, as the case may be. The fact that the entity was
covered in Level II or Level III, as the case may be, in the previous period
and it had availed of the exemptions or relaxations available to that Level of
entities should be disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.
(2) Where an entity has been covered in Level I and subsequently, ceases to be
so covered, the entity will not qualify for exemption/relaxation available to
Level II entities, until the entity ceases to be covered in Level I for two
consecutive years. Similar is the case in respect of an entity, which has been
covered in Level I or Level II and subsequently, gets covered under Level
III.

Solution
The question deals with the issue of Applicability of Accounting Standards to a non-
corporate entity.
For availment of the exemptions, first of all, it has to be seen that M/s Omega & Co.
falls in which level of the non-corporate entities.
Its classification will be done on the basis of the classification of non-corporate
entities as prescribed by the ICAI.
According to the ICAI, non-corporate entities can be classified under 3 levels viz
Level I, Level II (SMEs) and Level III (SMEs).
An entity whose turnover (excluding other income) exceeds rupees fifty crore in the
immediately preceding accounting year, will fall under the category of Level I
entities.
Non-corporate entities which are not Level I entities but fall in any one or more of
the following categories are classified as Level II entities:
(i) All commercial, industrial and business reporting entities, whose turnover
(excluding other income) exceeds rupees one crore but does not exceed
rupees fifty crore in the immediately preceding accounting year.
(ii) All commercial, industrial and business reporting entities having borrowings
(including public deposits) in excess of rupees one crore but not in excess of
rupees ten crore at any time during the immediately preceding accounting
year.
(iii) Holding and subsidiary entities of any one of the above.
As the turnover of M/s Omega &Co. is more than `1 crore, it falls under 1st
criteria of Level II non-corporate entities as defined above.
Even if its borrowings of .95 crores is less than `1 crores, it will be classified as
Level II Entity. In this case, AS 3, AS 17, AS 21 (Revised), AS 23, AS 27 will not
be applicable to M/s Omega &Co.
Relaxations from certain requirements in respect of AS 15, AS 19, AS 20, AS 25,
AS 28 and AS 29 (Revised) are also available to M/s Omega & Co.
1. Non-corporate entities which are not Level I entities whose turnover (excluding
other income) exceeds rupees __ _____ but does not exceed rupees fifty
crore in the immediately preceding accounting year are classified as Level II
entities.

Question 1
XYZ Ltd., with a turnover of ` 35 lakhs and borrowings of ` 10 lakhs during any time in
the previous year, wants to avail the exemptions available in adoption of Accounting
Standards applicable to companies for the year ended 31.3.2017. Advise the management
on the exemptions that are available as per the Companies (AS) Rules, 2006.
If XYZ is a partnership firm is there any other exemptions additionally available.
Answer
The question deals with the issue of Applicability of Accounting Standards for
corporate &non-corporate entities .
The companies can be classified under two categories viz SMCs and Non SMCs under
the Companies (AS) Rules, 2006.
As per the Companies (AS) Rules, 2006, criteria for above classification as SMCs,
are: “Small and Medium Sized Company” (SMC) means, a company-
whose equity or debt securities are not listed or are not in the process of listing on
any stock exchange, whether in India or outside India;
which is not a bank, financial institution or an insurance company;
whose turnover (excluding other income) does not exceed rupees fifty crore in
the immediately preceding accounting year;
which does not have borrowings (including public deposits) in excess of rupees
ten crore at any time during the immediately preceding accounting year; and
which is not a holding or subsidiary company of a company which is not a small and
medium-sized company.
The following relaxations and exemptions are available to XYZ Ltd.
1. AS 3 “Cash Flow Statements” is not mandatory.
2. AS 17 “Segment Reporting” is not mandatory.
3. SMEs are exemption from some paragraphs of AS 19 “Leases”.
4. SMEs are exempt from disclosures of diluted EPS (both including and excluding
extraordinary items).
5. SMEs are allowed to measure the ‘value in use’ on the basis of reasonable estimate
thereof instead of computing the value in use by present value technique under
AS 28 “Impairment of Assets”.
6. SMEs are exempt from certain disclosure requirements of AS 29 (Revised)
“Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets”.
7. SMEs are exempt from certain requirements of As 15 “Employee Benefits”.
8. Accounting Standards 21, 23, 27 are not applicable to SMEs.
However, it XYZ is a partnership firm and not a corporate, then its classification will
be done on the basis of the classification of non-corporate entities as classified
under 3 levels viz Level I, Level II (SMEs) and Level III (SMEs).
Since, turnover of XYZ, a partnership firm is less than ` 1 crore & borrowings of `10
lakhs is less than `1 crore, therefore, it will be classified as Level III SME. In this
case AS 3, AS 17, AS 18, AS 21 (Revised), AS 23, AS 24, AS27 will not be applicable
to XYZ a partnership firm.
Relaxations from certain requirements in respect of AS 15, AS 19, AS 20, AS 25,
AS 28 and AS 29 (Revised) are also available to XYZ a partnership firm.
Question 2
A company was classified as Non-SMC in 2015-2016. In 2016-2017 it has been classified
as SMC. The management desires to avail the exemption or relaxations available for
SMCs in 2016-2017. However, the accountant of the company does not agree with the
same. Comment.
Answer
Question 3
Comment whether the following Companies can be classified as a Small and
Medium Sized Company (SMC) as per the Companies (Accounting Standards),
Rules, 2006:
(i) A Pvt. Ltd., a subsidiary of a multinational company listed on London Stock
Exchange. It has a turnover of Rs. 12 crores and borrowings of Rs. 5
crores.
(ii) B Pvt. Ltd., has a turnover of Rs. 45 crores, other income of Rs. 7 crores
and bank borrowings of Rs. 9 crores
Answer
As per the companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006, “Small and
Medium Sized Company” (SMC) means, a company:
(a) Whose equity or debt securities are not listed or are not in the process
of listing on any stock exchange, whether in India or outside India‟
(b) Which is not a bank, financial institution or an insurance company;
(c) Whose turnover (excluding other income) does not exceed rupee; fifty
crore in the immediately preceding accounting year;
(d) Which does not have borrowings (including public deposits) in excess of
rupees ten crore at any time during the
immediately preceding accounting year; and
(e) which is not a holding or subsidiary company of a company which is not a
small and medium-sized company.
Explanation: a company shall qualify as a Small and Medium Sized Company, if the
condition mentioned, therein are satisfied as at the end of the relevant
accounting period.
(i) As per the definition of SMC, point (v), a company will be a SMC, if it is
not holding or subsidiary company of another company which is not a SMC.
Since A Pvt. Ltd., is a subsidiary of another Company which is listed, on
London Stock Exchange (and is therefore not a SMC), A Pvt. Ltd., cannot
be a SMC. The turnover and borrowings are not relevant in this case.
(ii) As per the definition of SMC, point (iii), a company will be a SMC if its
turnover does not exceed Rs. 50 crores or borrowings do not exceed Rs.10
crore. For calculating this turnover, other income is not to be included.
Since B Pvt. Ltd., has a turnover of Rs. 45 crores and borrowing of Rs. 9
crores, it will satisfy the definition and can be classified as SMC.
