(a) Potential limitations associated with financial accounting is the historical data. Financial
accounting is mainly historical and tells about the cost already incurred and accumulated
at the end of the accounting period. The historical cost is not a reliable basis for
predicting future earnings, solvency or overall managerial effectiveness. Financial
accounting does not provide day-to-day cost information to management for making
effective plans for the coming year and the period after that as financial data are
summarized at the end of the accounting period.
Financial accounting doesn’t have standard to assess the performance. Where there is no
well-developed system of standards to appraise the efficiency of the organisation in the
use of materials, labour and overhead costs by comparing the work of labourers, clerks,
salesmen and executives which should have been accomplished in producing and selling a
given number of products in an allotted period of time. It also does not provide
information to assess the performance of various persons and departments.
(b) Yes, the building in Nilai can be classified as non-current asset held for sale in
accordance with MFRS 5. It is because the building already vacated by the owner and
available for immediate sale. Besides, the owner also actively looking for the potential
buyer. In order to speed up the sale, owner already advertise on available building for
sale. Moreover, the possible costs are estimated earlier such as brokerage fee and legal
fee.
Question 2
a) Non-current assets can be both tangible or intangible assets. Non-current assets are
assets and property owned by a business that are not easily converted to cash within a
year. They may also be called long-term assets. Non-current assets are for long-term
use by the business and are expected to help generate income.
Tangible non-current assets are the physical things. For example, plant, land and
equipment which the business owns.
Intangible non-current assets are things that the business holds that do not have a
physical form. Intangible assets provide value to the business but it can be difficult to
convert them into cash. For example, Trademarks, Patents & Goodwill.
b) Based on MFRS, this suggestion is not necessary. First suggestion says that they are
expecting return by the retail customers which is not a reliable estimation where they
did not receive any complaints from buyers on the defect and might be no returns.
Second suggestion says that provision for unforeseen liabilities based on past
experience. This one also not reliable estimation where unforeseen liabilities are not
predictable.
There are 3 criteria which has to be met before a provision can be recognised
according to the MFRS. The first criteria are an entity has a present obligation (legal
or constructive) as a result of a past event. The second criteria it is probable that an
outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the
obligation. Lastly, a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

In order for such contract to exist, the user of the asset needs to have the right to direct
the use of asset where they can decide how and where to use the asset and have the
full control over the asset during the period of contract. Besides, they have right to
obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset.
b) i) The tax base of an asset arises when there is an amount that will be deductible for
tax purposes against any taxable economic benefits that will flow to an entity when it
recovers the carrying amount of the asset. If those economic benefits will not be
taxable, the tax base of the asset is equal to it carrying amount.
While, the tax base of a liability arises when it carrying amount, less any amount that
will be deductible for tax purposes in respect of that liability in future periods. In the
case of revenue which is received in advance, the tax base of the resulting liability is
its
carrying amount, less any amount of the revenue that will not be taxable in future
periods.
ii) The way the temporary differences are identified as taxable or deductible is where
a deferred tax liability shall be recognised for all taxable temporary differences,
except for the following instances where the initial recognition of goodwill or the
initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is not a business
combination and at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor
taxable profit (tax loss).
While, a deferred tax asset shall be recognised for all deductible temporary
differences to the extent that taxable profit will be available, against which the
deductible temporary difference can be utilised. A deferred tax asset will not be
recognised, when it arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a
transaction that is not a business combination, and at the time of the transaction,
affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss).
iii) Deferred tax asset can be recognised only if it is probable that taxable profits will
be available against which the deferred tax asset can be utilised. Where an entity has a
history of tax losses, the entity recognises a deferred tax asset only to the extent that
the entity has sufficient taxable temporary differences or there is other convincing
evidence that sufficient taxable profit will be available.
While, a deferred tax liability shall be recognised for all taxable temporary differences
except for the initial recognition of goodwill or at the time of the transaction, affects
neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (loss). A taxable temporary difference
results in a deferred tax liability whereas a deductible temporary difference results in
a deferred tax asset.
