Suspense account 83,765
Retained earnings, 1 January 20X4 102,300
2,700,500 2,700,500

The following additional information is available.


1 Closing finished inventories are valued at cost of £180,000 whilst work in progress has
increased to £140,000. These valuations do not take into account the fact that, at the year
end physical inventory count, it was discovered that ten computer games consoles with a
cost of £500 each had been badly damaged. These items have a scrap value of £50 each.
2 The licence was acquired on 1 January 20X4 in respect of exclusive rights to sell games in a
specific market for a period of three years. If the company chose to do so it could sell these
rights on without there being a significant impact on the remainder of the business.
3 Buildings are depreciated over 30 years. Computers are depreciated over five years. Both
depreciation and amortisation are charged to other operating expenses.
4 Shindig plc received notice on 15 January 20X5 that one of its customers, X Limited, had
gone into liquidation. This customer owed £45,000 at the year end which should be written
off as an irrecoverable debt. Shindig plc determined that an allowance for receivables
totalling £18,765 was required. There was no allowance for receivables in the prior year.

ICAEW 2019 Chapter 12: Company financial statements under IFRS 119
The credit entry has been correctly recorded but the debit entry has been made to the
suspense account. Irrecoverable debts are charged to other operating expenses.
5 There is an estimated income tax bill in relation to 20X4 of £120,000. The income tax figure
in the trial balance (a credit balance) represents the difference between the income tax
payable balance at 31 December 20X3 and the income tax paid in the year.
6 During the year, Shindig plc made a 1 for 4 bonus issue of equity shares from share
premium. The correct entry has been made to share capital, however the corresponding
entry has been made to the suspense account.
7 A cheque was issued to a supplier in the amount of £5,000 on 28 December 20X4. This was
not recorded in the books of Shindig plc.
8 There has been a lot of publicity surrounding Shindig plc's newest game, 'Warpaint', which
is due to be released in March 20X5. Due to the high level of interest Shindig plc have
allowed customers to pay for the game in advance to ensure that they receive their copy of
the game on the release date. Shindig plc was unclear how to account for this revenue of
£35,000 so included it in the suspense account.
9 Shindig plc sold a product with a warranty of two years. It is estimated that 3% of the
warranties will be invoked at a cost of £10,000. Provisions are charged to other operating
expenses.
Requirement
Prepare the statement of profit or loss for Shindig plc for the year ended 31 December 20X4
and the statement of financial position at that date.

The following additional information is relevant.


1 The borrowings are repayable in 10 equal instalments, commencing on 1 April 20X6.
2 Revenue is made up of the following.
£
Tuition fees 1,500,000
Book sales 5,100,000
Advances 100,000
6,700,000

The tuition fees all relate to courses held during the year except for fees of £300,000 which
relate to a 10-week course. Five weeks of this course had already been held by the year
end. The remainder is to be held in June 20X6. The advances relate to the delivery of a new
publication which Ford plc has commissioned and advertised heavily but which is not yet in
production.

ICAEW 2019 Chapter 12: Company financial statements under IFRS 121
3 There were no movements of non-current assets during the year. Plant is depreciated on a
10% straight-line basis, taking into account the month of sale or purchase. Freehold
buildings are depreciated over their useful life of 40 years. Depreciation on plant is charged
to cost of sales. Depreciation on freehold land and buildings is charged to administrative
expenses.
4 At the year end the company was in the process of a legal action by one of its competitors
which claims that Ford's textbook has breached copyright. The case is not due to be
decided until June 20X6 but Ford plc's legal advisors think that the company has a 70%
chance of losing the case and estimates that this would cost Ford plc £100,000.
5 One of Ford plc's customers who owed £10,000 at the year end was declared insolvent on
1 May 20X6. The liquidator does not expect to pay any money to creditors and the amount
is considered irrecoverable.
6 Closing inventories at cost amounted to £120,000. Within this valuation is an over-allocation
of fixed overheads, of £10,000.
7 The following should be accounted for at the year end.
Income tax of £350,000
The preference dividend
8 Ford plc employed the services of a training and consultancy firm for a six month period
commencing on the 1 February 20X6 for a total fee of £60,000. 50% of this fee is due for
payment on 1 April 20X6, while the balance is to be paid within 30 days of the contract's
conclusion. No record has been made in respect of this in the accounts of Ford plc. The
contract fee should be included in administrative expenses.
9 Ford plc rent some additional office space for administrative staff. Rent is due quarterly in
advance. Ford plc made a payment of £20,000 on 31 March 20X6, and this has been
included in administrative expenses.
10 During the year, Ford plc issued a 1 for 4 bonus issue from share premium. This has not
been reflected in the accounts.

1 Jayne plc sold a motor vehicle during the year ended 31 December 20X2. The motor
vehicle sold had a cost of £2,000 and a carrying amount of £1,100. Any profits or losses on
disposal are treated as a cost of sales. Jayne plc for this transaction has been to record the
sales proceeds in cash at bank and used the suspense account as the other side of the
entry. There are no other entries in the suspense account.
2 The non-current assets account includes freehold land which cost £25,000.
Depreciation is charged at 20% on the carrying amount of depreciable assets in use at the
year end. This charge is to be distributed 40% to cost of sales, 30% to distribution costs and
30% to administrative expenses.
3 A bonus issue of 1 for 5 equity shares made during the year out of the share premium
account has not been reflected above.

(a) Loan interest (12 months)
(b) Income tax of £12,000

September 20X2. The payment was debited to administration expenses.
7 At 31 December 20X2 Jayne plc considers an amount owing of £453 from Mr Maguire
should be written off as irrecoverable, and a further allowance for receivables of 3% of the
remaining receivables is necessary. Irrecoverable debts expenses are included in
administrative expenses.
8 Jayne plc received a letter in December 20X2 from the solicitor of a former employee

there is a 70% chance that the claim will be successful and they estimate that the award to
the claimant will be £20,000. Provisions are charged to administrative expenses.

has not been corrected in the accounting records of Jayne plc.
