It may be noted that the paragraphs of AS 4 dealing with contingencies also cover provision for contingent loss in case of impairment of assets, not covered by other Accounting Standards, such as AS 2: Valuation of Inventories, AS 13: Accounting for Investments and AS 26: Impairment of Assets.

Moreover, the collection of cheques after balance sheet date does nct represent any material change or commitments affecting financial position cf the enterprise, and so ne disclosure of such collections in the Directors’ Report is necessary. It should also be noted that, the Framework for Preparation anc Presentation of Financial Statement defines assets as resources controlled by an enterprise as a result of past events from whicn economic benefits are expected to flow to the enterprise Since the company acquires custody of the cheques after 31° March, it does not have any control over the cheques on 31* March and hence cheques in hand do not qualify to be recognised as asset on 315 March.

The net profit or loss for the period comprises the following components, each of which should be disclosed on the face of the statement of profil and loss: a) Profit or loss from ordinary activities: Any activities which are undertaken by an enterprise as ari of ils business and such jelaled activities in which the enterprise engages in furlherance of, Incidental to, or arising from, these activities, Related & incidental to such cue Examples: Rent paid, Salaries Paid, Bonus paid to employees, Interest received, Dividend paid, Purchase and sale of goods and services, loss on sale of unsold inventory at the end of the season, Profit on sale of fixed assets, Profit on sale ot Investments etc. Not all ordinary items are to be disclosed separately, certain items of ordinary are to be disclosed separately which are commonly termed as “Exceptional items”.

For example, sale of fixed assets in an entity is not frequent (non-recurring) but itis very much usual in a business to purchase and sell a fixed asset, hence profit on sale of fixed asset is not an extraordinary item. ‘An event or transaction may be extracrdinary for one enterprise, but not so for another enterprise because of the differences belween their respective ordinary activities and regular business activities. Example: * Claims from policyholders arising from an earthquake do not qualify as an extraordinary item for an insurance enterprise that insures against such risks. * Hurricane may be an extzordinary item for Indian companies, but it may not be the same for US, because hurricanes are very likely fo hit Florida during certain times of the year.

(N21RTP} CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES: . a) MEANING OF ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES: Accounting estimates can be described as the ‘approximation of the amount to be debited or credited in the respective account, where no precise means of measurement are readily avaljabl Mostly they are used in the deterriination f the carrying value of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet at the end of the specific date, ‘and their respective heads in the Profit & Loss during the specific period. Examples: Uselu! fe of asset in case of depreciation, Warranty Estimates, Provision for doubttul debts, Contingent Liabilities b) NEED FOR CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES: Accounting estimates by their nature are approximations that may need revision as additional information becomes known An estimate may have te be revised if changes occu’ the circumstances based on which the estimate was made a) Asa result of new information b) More experience ¢) Sudsequent development c) ARE THEY CONSIDERED AS PRIOR PERIOD ITEMS? Income or expense recognized on the outcome of 2 contingency which previously could not be estimated reliably does net constitute a prior period item. Estimations are revised in the above circumstances but not because of errors or omissions. Hence revision of estimation is NOT a prior period item. 4) CLASSIFICATION AND ACCOUNTING TREATMENT; The effect of a change in an accounting ‘estimate should be classified using the same classification in the statement of profit anc! loss as was used previously for the estimate. Le.. Ifthe original estimate is ordinary, then change in estimate is a'so ordinary similarly if original estimate Is extra-ordinary, then change in estimate is also exira-ordinary. CAINTER | ACCOUNTING STANDARDS | GR.2 | 47E | MAIN MATERIAL 5 PIONEER FOR MEC / CEC TO CA/ CMA FINAL Co ‘Changes in Accounting estimates are to be accounted prospectively. ) DISCLOSURES: The effect of a change in an accounting estimate should be included in the determination of net profit or loss in i) The period of the change if the change affects the period only; or ii) The period of the change and future periods if the change affects both. For example, a change in the estimate of the amount of bad debts is recognized immediately and therefore alfects only the current period, However, a change in the eslimaied useful life of a depreciable asset affects the depreciation in the current period and in each period during the remaining useful life of the asset, The nature and amount of a change in an accounting estimate which has a material effect in the current period, or which is expected to have a material effect in sulssecuent periods, should be disclosed. If il is impracticable to quantify the amount, this fact should be disclesed, CONCEPT QUESTION 5{CRD}: Abhay Ltd provided Rs. 15 Lakhs for inventory obsolescence in the last year.

Rejya Setu Nigam Ltd. was awarded a contract of construction of a bridge for Rs. 100 Crores on 1-6-2011. Total contract cost estimated was Rs. 80 Crores.

SOLUTION: As per AS 5 ‘Net Profit or Loss for the Period; Prior Period Items and Changes in Accounting Policies’, prior period items’ refers only to income or experises which arise in the current period as a result of errors or omissions in the preparation of ine financié’ sialements of one or more prior periods. Cost estimated by U.P. Rajya Setu Nigam Ltd. in: Rs. 85 Crores Excess Cost incurred in 2014-15 pee Rs. 10 Crores ‘Treatment given by the company Pror pened item Since the increase in the estimated cost is not #‘érror, so cannot be said as prior-period item. This increase in the cost is due to change in estimation which involves judgments based on the latest information available. A change in estimate is neither a prior period item nor an extraordinary item. Hence, the treatment given by the company is not correct. IVISION 6: THEORY FOR SELF STUDY CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES: For example, Sachin purchased a new machine costing Rs 10 lacs. Useful lite was laken fo be for 10 years; therefore, depreciation was charged at 10% on onginal cost each year. After 5 years when carrying amount was Rs.5 lacs for the machine, management realises thal machine can work for another 2 years only. In this case machine will be depreciated by Rs2.5 lacs each year for next 2 years. This is not an example of prior period iter but change in accounting estimate. In the same example, let us suppose there is no change in useful life of the machine after 5 years. The management by mistake calculated the depreciation in the fifth year as 10% of Rs.6,00,000 i.e, Rs.60,000 instead of Rs.1,00,000 and in the nex: year ie., sixth year decides to charge depreciation of Rs.1,40,000 In Such a case, Rs.1,00,000 would be the depreciation af sixth year and Rs.40,000 depreciation charged by the management in the sixth year will be considered as a prior period item, As per AS 10 (Revised), Property, Plantand Equipment, residual value and the useful life of an asset should be reviewed at least at each financial year-end and, if expectations ciffer from previous estimates, the change should be accounted for 2s a chiange in an accounting estimete in accordance with AS 5 ‘Net Profit 7 Loss for the Period, Prior Pericd Items and Changes in Accounting Pclicies'’ ‘AS~5 | NETPROAT OR LOSS FOR THE PERIOD, PRIOR PERIOD ITEMS AND CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES | 476 16 WWW.MASTERMINDSINDIA.COM | 9885125025 / 26 CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS LEARNING OBJECTIVES 1) Objective of the Standard 2) Scope & applicability 3), Definition of Construction Contract 4) Types of Construction Contracts 5) Rules for recognition of contract revenue and expenses 6) Application of percentage completion method 7) Contract revenue 8) Contract costs 9) Treatment when the entity expects a loss, 10} Combining & Segmenting 11) Disclosures ‘ANALYSIS OF PAST! ll PAPERS OF CAINTER Computation of percentage of work ‘completed and profit or loss over the perio of contract es (Contract costs to be recognised (Combining and segmenting Treatment when the entity expects a loss on an overall basis Disclosures ILLUSTRATION 1 CRD 10 MigRTP CRO ILLUSTRATION 2 CRD3 M18-MTPI-SM ACSP 1 EXAMPLE 1 rot M185 ASSIGN 10 EXAMPLE 2 CRDS Ni@-RTP CRDS EXAMPLE 3 ACSP 6 NA@NITP ISM ACSP1 EXAMPLE 4 ACSPT NigMTP25m ACSP 4 PRACTICAL QUESTION 9 CRD?
