during the year. In the above solution, Bad debts have been added back in the balances of
provision for doubtful debts and trade receivables as on 31.3.20X1. Alternatively, the adjustment
of writing off bad debts may be ignored and the solution can be given on the basis of figures of
trade receivables and provision for doubtful debts as appearing in the balance sheet on
31.3.20X1.
2. Current investments (i.e. Marketable securities) may not be readily convertible to a known
amount of cash and be subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value as per the requirements
of AS 3 and hence those have been considered as investing activities.

Net profit 4,11,000 1,03,500 3,07,500
Working Notes:
1. Sales ratio
Let the monthly sales for first 4 months (i.e. from 1.4.2020 to 31.7.2020) be = x
Then, sales for 4 months = 4x
Monthly sales for next 8 months (i.e. from 1.8.20 to 31.3.2021) = x + 25% of x= 1.25x
Then, sales for next 8 months = 1.25x X 8 = 10x
Total sales for the year = 4x + 10x = 14x
Sales Ratio = 4 x :10x i.e. 2:5
2. Gross profit ratio
From 1.4.2020 to 31.7.2020 gross profit is 25% of sales
Then, 25% of 4x= 1x
gross profit for next 8 months (i.e. from 1.8.20 to 31.3.2021) is 30%
Then, 30% of 10x = 3x
71
Therefore gross profit ratio will be 1:3
3. Time ratio
1st April, 2020 to 31st July, 2020 : 1st August, 2020 to 31st March, 2021
= 4 months: 8 months = 1:2
Thus, time ratio is 1:2.

1. Calculation of Sales Ratio

Let the average sales per month be x
Total sales from 01.04.20X2 to 30.06.20X2 will be 3x
Average sales per month from 01.07.20X2 to 31.03.20X3 will be 2x
Total sales from 01.07.20X2 to 31.03.20X3 will be 2x X 9 = 18x
Ratio of Sales will be 3x: 18x i.e. 3:18 or 1:6
2. Calculation of time Ratio
3 Months: 9 Months i.e. 1:3
3. Apportionment of Salary
Let the salary per month from 01.04.20X2 to 30.09.20X2 is x
Salary per month from 01.10.20X2 to 31.03.20X3 will be 2x
Hence, pre incorporation salary (01.04.20X2 to 30.06.20X2) = 3x
Post incorporation salary from 01.07.20X2 to 31.03.20X3 = (3x + 12x) i.e. 15x

Advertisement 36,000 post 36,000
Net profit 2,74,000 69,000 2,05,000
Working Notes:
1. Sales ratio
Let the monthly sales for first 4 months (i.e. from 1.4.20X1 to 31.7.20X1) be = x
Then, sales for 4 months = 4x
Monthly sales for next 8 months (i.e. from 1.8.X1 to 31.3.20X2) = x + 25% of x= 1.25x
Then, sales for next 6 months = 1.25x X 8 = 10x
Total sales for the year = 4x + 10x = 14x
Sales Ratio = 4 x :10x i.e. 2:5
2. Gross profit ratio
From 1.4.20X1 to 31.7.20X1 gross profit is 25% of sales
Then, 25% of 4x= 1x
gross profit for next 8 months (i.e. from 1.8.X1 to 31.3.20X2) is 30%
Then, 30% of 10x = 3x
81
Therefore gross profit ratio will be 1:3
3. Time ratio
1st April, 20X1 to 31st July, 20X1 : 1st August, 20X1 to 31st March, 20X2
= 4 months: 8 months = 1:2
Thus, time ratio is 1:2.

Q.2: Super company offers new shares of ₹ 100 each at 20% premium to existing
shareholders on the basis one for four shares. The cum-right market price of a share is ₹
190.
You are required to calculate the value of a right share. [RTP Nov 21]
ANSWER:
Value of right = Cum-right value of the share – Ex-right value of the share (as computed in Working
Note)
= ₹ 190 – ₹ 176 = ₹ 14 per share.
Working Note:
Ex-right value of the shares
= (Cum-right value of the existing shares + Rights shares x Issue Price) / (Existing No. of shares + No.
of right shares) = (₹ 190 X 4 Shares + ₹ 120 X 1 Share) / (4 + 1) Shares
= ₹ 880 / 5 shares = ₹ 176 per share.
Q.3: Mobile Limited has authorized share capital of 1,00,000 equity shares @ ₹ 10 each. The
company has already issued 60% of its capital for cash. Now the company wishes to issue
bonus shares in the ratio 1:5 to its existing shareholders. The following is the status of
Reserve and Surplus of the company:
General Reserve ₹ 1,60,000

Plant Revaluation Reserve ₹ 25,000
Securities Premium Account (Realised in cash) ₹ 60,000
Capital Redemption Reserve ₹ 80,000
Answer the following questions:
86
(a) What is the number of Bonus shares to be issued?

(b) Can company issue Bonus out of General Reserve only?
(c) Give Journal Entries and also give the extracts of the balance-sheet after such Bonus
issue.
(d) Is it possible for the company to issue partly paid-up bonus shares?
[RTP May – 2022]
Answer:
(a) Number of Bonus shares to be issued:
Existing paid up Capital = 60,000 Shares
Number of Bonus Shares = (60,000 × 1) ÷ 5 = 12,000 Shares (i.e. for ₹ 1,20,000)
(b) Bonus out of General Reserve:
It is a usual practice to utilize specific reserve (available for specific purpose). Therefore, if CRR
and Securities Premium are available, then company should utilize these reserves in priority over
other free reserves. It is clear that company should not use General Reserve, in the given example,
as Capital Redemption Reserve and Securities Premium are sufficiently available

As per section 63 of the Companies Act, 2013, only fully paid up bonus shares can be issued.
Therefore, it is not possible for the company to issue partly paid-up bonus shares.
Q.4: What is meant by Bonus issue? Explain its related provisions as per the Companies Act,
2013.
ANSWER:
Bonus Issue means an offer of free additional shares to existing shareholders. A company may decide
to distribute further shares as an alternative to increase the dividend pay-out.
Q.5: Explain the financial effects of a further issue of equity shares on the market value of
the share.
ANSWER:
The financial position of a business is contained in the balance sheet. Further issue of shares increases
the amount of share capital as well as the liquid resources (Bank). The amount of share capital issued
is the product of further number of shares issued multiplied by issue price. The issue price may be
higher than the face value (issue at a premium).
Q.6: What are the advantages and disadvantages of a rights issue?
ANSWER:
Rights issue is an issue of rights to a company's existing shareholders that entitles them to buy additional
shares directly from the company in proportion to their existing holdings, within a fixed time period.
Q.7: What is meant by renunciation of rights shares by existing shareholder?
ANSWER:
88
In a situation where existing shareholder does not intend to subscribe to the rights issue of a company,
he may give up his right in favour of another person for a consideration. Such giving up of rights is
called renunciation of rights.

Q.11: A company has decided to increase its existing share capital by making rights issue
to its existing shareholders. The company is offering one new share for every two shares
held by the shareholder. The market value of the share is ₹ 240 and the company is offering
one share of ₹ 120 each. Calculate the value of a right. What should be the ex-right market
price of a share?
ANSWER:
Ex-right value of the shares = (Cum-right value of the existing shares + Rights shares x Issue
Price) / (Existing Number of shares + No. of right shares)
= (₹ 240 x 2 Shares + ₹ 120 x 1 Share) / (2 + 1) Shares
= ₹ 600 / 3 shares = ₹ 200 per share.
Value of right = Cum-right value of the share – Ex-right value of the share
= ₹ 240 – ₹ 200 = ₹ 40 per share.
93
Hence, any one desirous of having a confirmed allotment of one share from the company at ₹ 120
will have to pay ₹ 80 (2 shares x ₹ 40) to an existing shareholder holding 2 shares and willing to
renounce his right of buying one share in favour of that person.
Q.12: A Ltd company having share capital of 25,000 equity shares of ₹10 each decides to
issue rights share at the ratio of 1 for every 4 shares held at par value. Assuming all the
share folders accepted the rights issue and all money was duly received, pass journal

Q.5: What is the purpose of issuing redeemable preference shares?
ANSWER:
A company may issue redeemable preference shares to raise finance in a dull primary market.
Preference shares may be redeemed when there is a surplus of capital and the surplus funds cannot be
utilised in the business for profitable use.
Q.6: What are the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 related with redemption of
preference shares? Explain in brief.
ANSWER:
Section 55 of the Companies Act, 2013, deals with provisions relating to redemption of preference
shares. It ensures that there is no reduction in shareholders’ funds due to redemption and, thus, the
interest of outsiders is not affected.

Debentures are usually redeemable i.e. either redeemed in cash or convertible after a time period.
Redeemable debentures may be redeemed:
➢ after a fixed number of years; or
➢ any time after a certain number of years has elapsed since their issue; or
126
➢ on giving a specified notice; or
➢ by annual drawing.
Q.7: Write short note on Debenture Redemption Reserve.
ANSWER:
A company issuing debentures may be required to create a debenture redemption reserve account out
of the profits available for distribution of dividend and amounts credited to such account cannot be
utilised by the company except for redemption of debentures. Such an arrangement would ensure
that the company will have sufficient liquid funds for the redemption of debentures at the time they
fall due for payment.
Q.8: A company had issued 20,000, 13% debentures of ₹ 100 each on 1st April, 20X1. The
debentures are due for redemption on 1st July, 20X2. The terms of issue of debentures
provided that they were redeemable at a premium of 5% and also conferred option to the
debenture holders to convert 20% of their holding into equity shares (Nominal value ₹ 10) at
a price of ₹ 15 per share. Debenture holders holding 2,500 debentures did not exercise the
option. Calculate the number of equity shares to be allotted to the debenture holders
exercising the option to the maximum.
ANSWER:
Calculation of number of equity shares to be allotted
Number of debentures
Total number of debentures 20,000
Less: Debenture holders not opted for conversion (2,500)
Debenture holders opted for conversion 17,500
Option for conversion 20%
Number of debentures to be converted (20% of 17,500) 3,500
Redemption value of 3,500 debentures at a premium of 5% [3,500
x (100 + 5)] ₹ 3,67,500
Equity shares of ₹ 10 each issued on conversion [₹ 3,67,500/ ₹ 15] 24,500 shares

Working Note 1:
Additional investment in Debenture Redemption Investment A/c on 1 April 20X1
The company would be required to invest an amount equivalent to 15% of the value of the
debentures in specified investments which would be equivalent to:
= Total No of debentures X Face value per debenture X 15%
= 16,000 X 100 X 15%
= ₹ 2,40,000/-
The company has already invested in specified investments i.e. 9% Govt bonds for an amount of ₹
2,00,000 as per the information given in the question.
The balance amount of ₹ 40,000 (i.e. ₹ 2,40,000 less ₹ 2,00,000) would be invested by the company
on 1 April 20X1.
Working Note 2:
Redemption of Debenture Redemption Investments on 30 March 20X2 amounting to ₹ 30,000
Since the company purchased 2,000 own debentures on 31 March 20X2, the company would also
realize the investments of 15% corresponding to these debentures for which computation is as follows:
= No of own debentures to be bought X Face value per debenture X 15%
= 2,000 X 100 X 15%
= ₹ 30,000/-
Working Note 3:
Redemption of Debenture Redemption Investments on 30 March 20X2 amounting to ₹
2,10,000
The remaining debentures i.e. total debentures less own debentures would be redeemed on 31 March
20X2 and hence the company would also realize the balance investments of 15% corresponding to
these debentures for which computation is as follows:
= (Total no of debentures - No of own debentures) X Face value per debenture X 15%
= (16,000 - 2,000) X 100 X 15%
= ₹ 2,10,000/-

Working Notes:
1. Cost of investment purchased on 1st April, 2020
4,000, 10% Govt. loan were purchased @ ₹ 70 cum-interest. Total amount paid 4,000 bonds x
₹ 70 = 2,80,000 which includes accrued interest for 5 months, i.e., 1 st November, 2020 to 31st
March, 2021. Accrued interest will be ₹ 4,00,000 x 10% x 5/12 = ₹ 16,667. Therefore, cost of
investment purchased = ₹ 2,80,000 - ₹ 16,667 = ₹ 2,63,333.
2. Sale of 10% Govt. loan on 1st October, 2020
800, 10% Govt. loan were sold@ ₹ 75 ex-interest, i.e., Total amount received = 800 x 75 +
accrued interest for 5 months = ₹ 60,000 + ₹ 3333
3. Cost of 10% Govt. loan on 31.3.2021
Cost of 10% Govt. loan on 31.3.2021 will be ₹ 2,63,333 x 3,20,000/4,00,000 = ₹ 2,10,666.
Interest accrued on 10% Government Loan on 31.3.2021 = ₹ 3,20,000 x 10% x 5/12 = 13,333
4. Profit on sale of bonus shares
Cost per share after bonus = ₹ 1,26,000/14,000 = ₹ 9 (average cost method being followed)
Profit per share sold (₹ 10 - ₹ 9) = ₹ 1.
Therefore, total profit on sale of 8,000 shares = 8,000 x ₹ 1 = ₹ 8,000.
5. Profit on sale of 10% Govt. loan ₹
Sale value = 60,000
Cost of ₹ 80,000 10% Government Loan = 2,63,333 x 80,000 /4,00,000 = 52,667
Profit = 7,333
6. Dividend on equity shares = 6,000 x 5 x 22% = ₹ 6,600 out of which ₹ 1,650 will be treated as
capital receipt as it has been received for the period of 3 months during which shares were not
held.
Note: It has been considered that dividend received relates for the period of 12 months ended 31 st
Dec., 2020, strictly based on the information, given in the question. Hence, dividend received for the
period of 3 months (1st January, 20 to 31st March, 20) has been treated as pre-acquisition.

Right Shares = 6,000/4 x 1= 1,500 shares
Shares subscribed by Meeta = 1,500 x 40%= 600 shares
Value of right shares subscribed = 600 shares @ ₹ 5 per share = ₹ 3,000
4. Calculation of sale of right entitlement by Kamal Ltd.
No. of right shares sold = 1,500 – 600 = 900 rights for 2,025
Note: As per para 13 of AS 13, sale proceeds of rights are to be credited to P & L A/c.
Q.3: Z Bank has classified its total investment on 31-3-2021 into three categories (a) held to
maturity (b) available for sale (c) held for trading as per the RBI Guidelines.
‘Held to maturity’ investments are carried at acquisition cost less amortised amount.
‘Available for sale’ investments are carried at marked to market. ‘Held for trading’
investments are valued at weekly intervals at market rates. Net depreciation, if any, is
charged to revenue and net appreciation, if any, is ignored. Comment whether the policy of
the bank is in accordance with AS 13? [RTP Nov 21]
ANSWER:
As per AS 13 ‘Accounting for Investments’, the accounting standard is not applicable to Bank, Insurance
Company, Mutual Funds. In this case Z Bank is a bank, therefore, AS 13 does not apply to it. For
banks, the RBI has issued guidelines for classification and valuation of its investment and Z Bank should
comply with those RBI Guidelines/Norms. Therefore, though Z Bank has not followed the provisions
of AS 13, yet it would not be said as non-compliance since, it is complying with the norms stipulated
by the RBI.

Answer:
The investments are classified into two categories as per AS 13, viz., Current Investments and Long-
term Investments. A current Investment is an investment that is by its nature readily realizable and is
intended to be held for not more than one year from the date on which such investment is made. The
carrying amount for current investments is the lower of cost and fair value. Any reduction to fair value
and any reversals of such reductions are included in the statement of profit and loss. A long-term
investment is an investment other than a current investment. The investments referred in the question
can be classified as long-term investments and long-term investments are usually carried at cost.
However, when there is a decline, other than temporary, in the value of a long-term investment, the
carrying amount is reduced to recognize the decline. The contention of the company to bring down
the value of investment may be correct if the decline in value is permanent in nature and the reduction
in carrying amount may be charged to the statement of profit and loss. The reduction in carrying
amount is reversed when there is a rise in the value of the investment, or if the reasons for the
reduction no longer exist.

Working Notes:
1. Calculation of Weighted average cost of equity shares
600 shares purchased at ₹ 12,000
900 shares purchased at ₹ 22,500
1,000 shares purchased at ₹ 23,000
2,500 shares at nil cost
600 right shares purchased at ₹ 12,000
Total cost of 5,600 shares is ₹ 66,500 [₹ 69,500 less ₹ 3,000 (pre-acquisition dividend received
on 1,000 shares purchased on 20.5.19].
Hence, weighted average cost per share will be considered as ₹ 11.875 per share (66,500/5,600).
2. It has been considered that no dividend was received on bonus shares as the dividend pertains
to the year ended 31st March, 2019.
3. Calculation of right shares subscribed by Vijay
Right Shares (considering that right shares have been granted on Bonus shares also) = 5,000/5 x
1= 1,000 shares
140
Shares subscribed = 1,000 x 60%= 600 shares

Value of right shares subscribed = 600 shares @ ₹ 20 per share = ₹ 12,000
Calculation of sale of right renouncement
No. of right shares sold = 1,000 x 40% = 400 shares
Sale value of right = 400 shares x ₹ 3 per share = ₹ 1,200
Note: As per para 13 of AS 13, sale proceeds of rights is to be credited to P & L A/c.
4. Profit on sale of equity shares
As on 20.12.19
Sales price (1,500 shares at ₹ 22) 33,000.00
Less: Cost of shares sold (1,500 x ₹ 11.875) (17,812.50)
Profit on sale 15,187.50
As on 1. 2.20
Sales price (1,000 shares at ₹ 24) 24,000
Less: Cost of shares sold (1,000 x ₹ 11.875) (11,875)
Balance of 3,100 shares as on 31.3.20 will be valued at ₹ 36,812.50 (at rate of ₹ 11.875 per share)
(ii) The accounting treatment 'at cost' under the head 'Long Term Investment’ in the financial
statements of the company without providing for any diminution in value is correct and is in
accordance with the provisions of AS 13 provided that there is no decline, other than temporary,
in the value of investment. If the decline in the value of investment is, other than temporary,
compared to the time when the shares were purchased, provision is required to be made. The
reduction in market value should not be considered, in isolation to determine the decline, other
than temporary. The amount of the provision for diminution in the value of investment may be
ascertained considering the factors indicated in AS 13.

Q.8: How will you classify the investments as per AS 13? Explain in Brief.
ANSWER:
142
The investments are classified into two categories as per AS 13, viz., Current Investments and Long-
term Investments. A current Investment is an investment that is by its nature readily realisable and is
intended to be held for not more than one year from the date on which such investment is made. The
carrying amount for current investments is the lower of cost and fair value. Any reduction to fair value
and any reversals of such reductions are included in the statement of profit and loss. A long-term
investment is an investment other than a current investment. Long term investments are usually carried
at cost. However, when there is a decline, other than temporary, in the value of a long term
investment, the carrying amount is reduced to recognise the decline. The reduction in carrying amount
is charged to the statement of profit and loss.
Q.9: Whether the accounting treatment 'at cost' under the head ‘Long Term Investments’
without providing for any diminution in value is correct and in accordance with the
provisions of AS 13. If not, what should have been the accounting treatment in such a
situation? Explain in brief.
ANSWER:
The accounting treatment 'at cost' under the head 'Long Term Investment’ in the financial statements
of the company without providing for any diminution in value is correct and is in accordance with
the provisions of AS 13 provided that there is no decline, other than temporary, in the value of
investment. If the decline in the value of investment is, other than temporary, compared to the time
when the shares were purchased, provision is required to be made.
Q.10: Mr. X acquires 200 shares of a company on cum-right basis for ₹ 70,000. He
subsequently receives an offer of right to acquire fresh shares in the company in the
proportion of 1:1 at ₹ 107 each. He does not subscribe but sells all the rights for ₹ 12,000.
The market value of the shares after their becoming ex-rights has also gone down to ₹
60,000. What should be the accounting treatment in this case?
ANSWER:
As per AS 13, where the investments are acquired on cum-right basis and the market value of
investments immediately after their becoming ex-right is lower than the cost for which they were
acquired, it may be appropriate to apply the sale proceeds of rights to reduce the carrying amount of
such investments to the market value. In this case, the amount of the ex-right market value of 200
shares bought by X immediately after the declaration of rights falls to ₹60,000. In this case, out of sale
proceeds of ₹ 12,000, ₹ 10,000 may be applied to reduce the carrying amount to bring it to the
market value and ₹ 2,000 would be credited to the profit and loss account.

Working Notes:
1. Calculation of goods with customers
Since no approval for sale has bene received for the goods of ₹ 40,500 (i.e. 1/2 of ₹ 81,000)
hence, these should be valued at cost i.e. ₹ 27,000 (40,500/120 x 80)
2. Calculation of actual sales
Total sales – Returns – Sale of goods on approval (1/2)
= ₹ 10,00,000 - ₹ 9,500 - ₹ 40,500 (81,000/2) = ₹ 9,50,000
3. Calculation of Gross Profit Ratio
For year 2020 : Cost of goods sold was 80, Gross profit rate 20% and sales 100
154
Insurance Claims
For year 2021 : Cost of goods sold was 80, Gross profit rate 33.33% (1/3 of sales) and sales 120
Note: It is given in the question, that selling price was increased by 20% with effect from
01.01.2021. While solving the question in the given answer, new gross profit ratio has been
computed and applied to arrive at the value of closing stock. Alternatively, instead of computing
new gross profit ratio, sales can be reduced to the levels before increase and old gross profit ratio
can be applied to arrive at the value of closing stock.

Q.6: Explain the significance of ‘Average Clause’ in a fire insurance policy.
ANSWER:
In order to discourage under-insurance, fire insurance policies often include an average clause. The
effect of these clause is that if the insured value of the subject matter concerned is less than the total
cost then the average clause will apply, that is, the loss will be limited to that proportion of the loss
as the insured value bears to the total cost.
The actual claim amount would therefore be determined by the following formula:
Insured value
Total cost
The average clause applies only when the insured value is less than the total value of the insured
subject matter.
Q.7: Define the following terms:

(i) Indemnity Period;
(ii) Standard Turnover
ANSWER:
(i) Indemnity period is the period beginning with the occurrence of the damage and ending not
later than twelve months.
(ii) Standard Turnover is the turnover during that period in the twelve months immediately before
the date of damage which corresponds with the Indemnity Period.

subsequent year;
2. Increase in turnover expected 25%;
3. To achieve additional sales, trader has to incur additional expenditure of ₹ 31,250.
ANSWER:
(a) Calculation of Gross Profit
Gross Profit = Net Profit + Standing Charges / Turnover x 100
Gross Profit = (₹45,000 + ₹90,000 / ₹4,50,000) x 100 = 30%

Gross profit on increase turnover (₹ 5,62,500 x 30%) 1,68,750
Add: Additional standing charges 31,250
Policy Amount 2,00,000

Q.1: What is meant by ‘Measurement’? What are the bases of measurement of Elements of
Financial Statements? Explain in brief. [RTP Nov 21]
ANSWER:
Measurement is the process of determining money value at which an element can be recognized in
the balance sheet or statement of profit and loss. The framework recognizes four alternative
measurement bases for the purpose. These bases can be explained as:
Historical cost This is the Acquisition price. According to this, assets are recorded at an amount
of cash and cash equivalent paid or the fair value of the assets at time of
acquisition.
Current Cost Assets are carried out at the amount of cash or cash equivalent that would have
to be paid if the same or an equivalent asset was acquired currently. Liabilities
are carried at the undiscounted amount of cash or cash equivalents that would
be required to settle the obligation currently.
Realisable For assets, amount currently realizable on sale of the asset in an orderly
(Settlement disposal. For liabilities, this is the undiscounted amount expected to be paid on
Value) settlement of liability in the normal course of business.
Present Value Assets are carried at present value of future net cash flows generated by the
concerned assets in the normal course of business. Liabilities are carried at
present value of future net cash flows that are expected to be required to settle
the liability in the normal course of business.
In preparation of financial statements, all or any of the measurement basis can be used in varying
combinations to assign money values to financial items.

Disclosure of Accounting Policies

Question – 1
In the books of Rani Ltd., closing inventory as on 31.03.2020 amounts to ₹ 1,75,000 (valued on
the basis of FIFO method). The Company decides to change from FIFO method to weighted
average method for ascertaining the costs of inventory from the year 2019-20. On the basis of
weighted average method, closing inventory as on 31.03.2020 amounts to ₹ 1,59,000.
Realizable value of the inventory as on 31.03.2020 amounts to ₹ 2,07,000. Discuss disclosure
requirements of change in accounting policy as per AS 1. [MTP Nov 21 (5 Marks)]
ANSWER:
As per AS 1 “Disclosure of Accounting Policies”, any change in an accounting policy which has a material
effect should be disclosed in the financial statements. The amount by which any item in the financial
statements is affected by such change should also be disclosed to the extent ascertainable. Where such
amount is not ascertainable, wholly or in part, the fact should be indicated. Thus Rani Ltd. should disclose
the change in valuation method of inventory and its effect on financial statements. The company may
disclose the change in accounting policy in the following manner:
“The company values its inventory at lower of cost and net realizable value. Since net realizable value
of all items of inventory in the current year was greater than respective costs, the company valued its
inventory at cost. In the present year i.e. 2019-20, the company has changed to weighted average
method, which better reflects the consumption pattern of inventory, for ascertaining inventory costs
from the earlier practice of using FIFO for the purpose. The change in policy has reduced current profit
and value of inventory by ₹ 16,000 (1,75,000 – 1,59,000).”
Question – 2
“Accounting Standards standardize diverse accounting policies with a view to eliminate the
non-comparability of financial statements and improve the reliability of financial statements.”
Discuss and explain the benefits of Accounting Standards. [MTP Nov 21]
ANSWER:
Accounting Standards standardize diverse accounting policies with a view to eliminate the non-
comparability of financial statements and improve the reliability of financial statements. Accounting
Standards provide a set of standard accounting policies, valuation norms and disclosure requirements.
Accounting standards aim at improving the quality of financial reporting by promoting comparability,
consistency and transparency, in the interests of users of financial statements.
The following are the benefits of Accounting Standards:
(i) Standardization of alternative accounting treatments: Accounting Standards reduce to a
reasonable extent confusing variations in the accounting treatment followed for the purpose of
preparation of financial statements.
256
(ii) Requirements for additional disclosures: There are certain areas where important is not
statutorily required to be disclosed. Standards may call for disclosure beyond that required by law.
(iii) Comparability of financial statements: The application of accounting standards would
facilitate comparison of financial statements of different companies situated in India and facilitate
comparison, to a limited extent, of financial statements of companies situated in different parts of
the world. However, it should be noted in this respect that differences in the institutions, traditions
and legal systems from one country to another give rise to differences in Accounting Standards
adopted in different countries.
Question – 3
(i) ABC Ltd. was previously making provision for non-moving stocks based on not issued for
the last 12 months up to 31.03.2020. Now, the company wants to make provision based
on technical evaluation during the year ending 31.03.2021.
Total value of stock ₹ 133.75 lakhs
Provision required based on technical evaluation ₹ 4.00 lakhs
Provision required based on 12 months not issued ₹ 5.00 lakhs
(ii) In the Books of Kay Ltd, Closing stock as on 31st March, 2021 amounts to ₹ 1,24,000 (on
the basis of FIFO Method)
The company decides to change from FIFO method to weighed average method for
ascertaining the cost of inventory from the year 2020-2021. On the basis of weighted
average method, closing stock as on 31st March, 2021 amounts to ₹ 1,15,000. Realisable
value of the inventory as on 31st March, 2021 amounts to ₹ 1,54,000.
Discuss Disclosure Requirements of change in accounting policy in above cases as per
AS 1 [Dec 21 (5 Marks)]
ANSWER:
(i) The decision of making provision for non-moving inventories on the basis of technical evaluation
does not amount to change in accounting policy. Accounting policy of a company may require
that provision for non-moving inventories should be made. The method of estimating the amount
of provision may be changed in case a more prudent estimate can be made.
In the given case, considering the total value of inventory, the change in the amount of required
provision of anon-moving inventory from ₹ 5 lakhs to ₹ 4 lakhs is also not material. The disclosure
can be made for such change in the following lines by way of notes to the accounts in the annual
accounts of ABC Ltd. for the year 2020-21:
“The company has provided for non-moving inventories on the basis of technical evaluation unlike
preceding years. Had the same method been followed as in the previous year, the profit for the
year and the corresponding effect on the year end net assets would have been lower by ₹ 1 lakh.”
(ii) As per AS 1 “Disclosure of Accounting Policies”, any change in an accounting policy which has a
material any item in the financial statements is affected by such change should also be disclosed to
the extent ascertainable. Where such amount is not ascertainable, wholly or in part, the fact should
be indicated. Thus company should disclose the change in valuation method of inventory and its
257
effect on financial statements. The company may disclose the change in accounting policy in the
following manner:
“The company values its inventory at lower of cost and net realizable value. Since net realizable
value of all items of inventory in the current year was greater than respective costs, the company
valued its inventory at cost. In the present year i.e. 2020-21, the company has changed to weighted
average method, which better reflects the consumption pattern of inventory, for ascertaining
inventory costs from the earlier practice of using FIFO for the purpose. The change in policy has
reduced current profit and value of inventory by ₹ 9,000.”
Question – 4
A company with a turnover of ₹ 225 crores and borrowings of ₹ 51 crore during the year ended
31st March, 2021, wants to avail the exemptions available in adoption of Accounting
Standards applicable to companies for the year ended 31.3.2021. Advise the management on
the exemptions that are available as per the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2021.
[RTP May 22]
Answer:
The question deals with the issue of Applicability of Accounting Standards for corporate entities. The
companies can be classified under two categories viz SMCs and Non-SMCs under the Companies
(Accounting Standards) Rules, 2021. As per the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2021, 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 two-fifty crores in the immediately
preceding accounting year;
• Which does not have borrowings (including public deposits) in excess of rupees fifty crores 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.
Since, XYZ Ltd.’s turnover was ₹ 225 crores which does not exceed ₹ 250 crores but borrowings of ₹ 51
crore are more than ₹ 50 crores, it is not a small and medium sized company (SMC). The exemptions
available to SMC are not available to this company.
Question – 5
An organization whose objects are charitable or religious, believes that the Accounting
Standards are not applicable to it since only a very small proportion of its activities are
business in nature. Comment. [RTP May 22]
258
Answer:
Accounting Standards apply in respect of any enterprise (whether organized in corporate, co-operative
or other forms) engaged in commercial, industrial or business activities, whether or not profit oriented
and even if established for charitable or religious purposes. Accounting Standards however, do not apply
to enterprises solely carrying on the activities, which are not of commercial, industrial or business nature,
(e.g., an activity of collecting donations and giving them to flood affected people). Exclusion of an
enterprise from the applicability of the Accounting Standards would be permissible only if no part of the
activity of such enterprise is commercial, industrial or business in nature. Even if a very small proportion
of the activities of an enterprise were considered to be commercial, industrial or business in nature, the
Accounting Standards would apply to all its activities including those, which are not commercial,
industrial or business in nature.
Question – 6
State whether the following statements are ‘True’ or ‘False’ in line with the provisions of AS-1
Also give reasons for your answer.
(i) Certain fundamental accounting assumptions underline the preparation and
presentation of financial statements. They are usually specifically stated because their
acceptance and use are not assumed.
(ii) If fundamental accounting assumption are not follows in presentation and preparation of
financial statements, a specific disclosure is not required.
(iii) All significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation and presentation of
financial statements should form part of the financial statements.
(iv) Any change in an accounting policy, which has a material effect should be disclosed.
Where the amount by which any item in the financial statements is affected by such
change is not ascertainable, wholly or in part, the fact need not to be indicated.
(v) There is note single list of accounting policies which are applicable to all circumstances.
Answer:
(i) False; As per AS 1 “Disclosure of Accounting Policies”, certain fundamental accounting assumptions
underlie the preparation and presentation of financial statements. They are usually not specifically
stated because their acceptance and use are assumed. Disclosure is necessary if they are not
followed.
(ii) False; As per AS 1, if the fundamental accounting assumptions, viz. Going Concern, Consistency
and Accrual are followed in financial statements, specific disclosure is not required. If a fundamental
accounting assumption is not followed, the fact should be disclosed.
(iii) True; To ensure proper understanding of financial statements, it is necessary that 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 they should be disclosed at one place.
259
(iv) False; Any change in the accounting policies which has a material effect in the current period or
which is reasonably expected to have a material effect in later periods should be disclosed. Where
such amount is not ascertainable, wholly or in part, the fact should be indicated.
(v) True; As per AS 1, there is no single list of accounting policies which are applicable to all
circumstances. The differing circumstances in which enterprises operate in a situation of diverse and
complex economic activity make alternative accounting principles and methods of applying those
principles acceptable.
Question – 7
In the books of M/s Prashant Ltd., closing inventory as on 31.03.20X2 amounts to ₹ 1,63,000
(on the basis of FIFO method).
The company decides to change from FIFO method to weighted average method for
ascertaining the cost of inventory from the year 20X1-X2. On the basis of weighted average
method, closing inventory as on 31.03.20X2 amounts to ₹ 1,47,000. Realisable value of the
inventory as on 31.03.20X2 amounts to ₹ 1,95,000.
Discuss disclosure requirement of change in accounting policy as per AS-1
SOLUTION:
As per AS 1 “Disclosure of Accounting Policies”, any change in an accounting policy which has a material
effect should be disclosed in the financial statements. The amount by which any item in the financial
statements is affected by such change should also be disclosed to the extent ascertainable. Where such
amount is not ascertainable, wholly or in part, the fact should be indicated. Thus Prashant Ltd. should
disclose the change in valuation method of inventory and its effect on financial statements. The company
may disclose the change in accounting policy in the following manner:
‘The company values its inventory at lower of cost and net realizable value. Since net realizable value
of all items of inventory in the current year was greater than respective costs, the company valued its
inventory at cost. In the present year i.e. 201X1-X2, the company has changed to weighted average
method, which better reflects the consumption pattern of inventory, for ascertaining inventory costs
from the earlier practice of using FIFO for the purpose. The change in policy has reduced current profit
and value of inventory by ₹ 16,000.
Question – 8
Jagannath Ltd. had made a rights issue of shares in 20X2. In the offer document to its
members, it had projected a surplus of ₹ 40 crores during the accounting year to end on 31st
March, 20X2. The draft results for the year, prepared on the hitherto followed accounting
policies and presented for perusal of the board of directors showed a deficit of ₹ 10 crores.
The board in consultation with the managing director, decided on the following:
(i) Value year-end inventory at works cost (₹ 50 crores) instead of the hitherto method of
valuation of inventory at prime cost (₹ 30 crores).
(ii) Not to provide for “after sales expenses” during the warranty period. Till the last year,
provision at 2% of sales used to be made under the concept of “matching of costs against
revenue” and actual expenses used to be charged against the provision. The board now
260
decided to account for expenses as and when actually incurred. Sales during the year
total to ₹ 600 crores.
(iii) Provide for permanent fall in the value of investments - which fall had taken place over
the past five years - the provision being ₹ 10 crores.
As chief accountant of the company, you are asked by the managing director to draft the notes
on accounts for inclusion in the annual report for 20X1-20X2.
SOLUTION:
As per AS 1, any change in the accounting policies which has a material effect in the current period or
which is reasonably expected to have a material effect in later periods should be disclosed. In the case
of a change in accounting policies which has a material effect in the current period, the amount by which
any item in the financial statements is affected by such change should also be disclosed to the extent
ascertainable. Where such amount is not ascertainable, wholly or in part, the fact should be indicated.
Accordingly, the notes on accounts should properly disclose the change and its effect.
Notes on Accounts:
(i) During the year inventory has been valued at factory cost, against the practice of valuing it at
prime cost as was the practice till last year. This has been done to take cognizance of the more
capital intensive method of production on account of heavy capital expenditure during the year.
As a result of this change, the year-end inventory has been valued at ₹ 50 crores and the profit for
the year is increased by ₹ 20 crores.
(ii) So far, the company has been providing 2% of sales for meeting “after sales expenses during the
warranty period. With the improved method of production, the probability of defects occurring
in the products has reduced considerably. Hence, the company has decided not to make provision
for such expenses but to account for the same as and when expenses are incurred. Due to this
change, the profit for the year is increased by ₹ 12 crores than would have been the case if the old
policy were to continue.
(iii) The company has decided to provide ₹ 10 crores for the permanent fall in the value of investments
which has taken place over the period of past five years. The provision so made has reduced the
profit disclosed in the accounts by ₹ 10 crores.
Question – 9
XYZ Company is engaged in the business of financial services and is undergoing tight liquidity
position, since most of the assets of the company are blocked in various claims/petitions in a
Special Court. XYZ has accepted Inter-Corporate Deposits (ICDs) and, it is making its best
efforts to settle the dues. There were claims at varied rates of interest, from lenders, from the
due date of ICDs to the date of repayment. The company has provided interest, as per the
terms of the contract till the due date and a note for non-provision of interest on the due date
to date of repayment was affected in the financial statements. On account of uncertainties
existing regarding the determination of the amount and in the absence of any specific legal
obligation at present as per the terms of contracts, the company considers that these claims
are in the nature of "claims against the company not acknowledged as debt”, and the same
has been disclosed by way of a note in the accounts instead of making a provision in the profit
and loss accounts. State whether the treatment done by the Company is correct or not.
261
SOLUTION:
AS 1 ‘Disclosure of Accounting Policies’ recognises 'prudence' as one of the major considerations
governing the selection and application of accounting policies. In view of the uncertainty attached to
future events, profits are not anticipated but recognised only when realised though not necessarily in
cash. Provision is made for all known liabilities and losses even though the amount cannot be determined
with certainty and represents only a best estimate in the light of available information.
Also as per AS 1, ‘accrual’ is one of the fundamental accounting assumptions. Irrespective of the terms of
the contract, so long as the principal amount of a loan is not repaid, the lender cannot be replaced in a
disadvantageous position for non-payment of interest in respect of overdue amount. From the aforesaid,
it is apparent that the company has an obligation on account of the overdue interest. In this situation,
the company should provide for the liability (since it is not waived by the lenders) at an amount
estimated or on reasonable basis based on facts and circumstances of each case. However, in respect of
the overdue interest amounts, which are settled, the liability should be accrued to the extent of amounts
settled. Non-provision of the overdue interest liability amounts to violation of accrual basis of
accounting. Therefore, the treatment, done by the company, of not providing the interest amount from
due date to the date of repayment is not correct.

AS - 2 : Valuation of Inventories
“Valuation of Inventories”

Question – 1
On 31st March 2020, a business firm finds that cost of a partly finished unit on that date is ₹
430. The unit can be finished in 2020-21 by an additional expenditure of ₹ 310. The finished
unit can be sold for ₹ 750 subject to payment of 2% brokerage on selling price. The firm seeks
your advice regarding the amount at which the unfinished unit should be valued as at 31st
March, 2020 for preparation of final accounts. Assume that the partly finished unit cannot be
sold in semi-finished form and its NRV is zero without processing it further.
[RTP Nov 21]
ANSWER:
Valuation of unfinished unit

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.

Net realizable value of inventory as on 31st March, 2021 is ₹ 107.75 per unit.
You are required to compute the value of Inventory as per AS 2?
[RTP May-2022]
Answer:
Net Realisable Value of Inventory as on 31st March, 2021
= ₹ 107.75 x 20 units = ₹ 2,155
Value of inventory as per Weighted Average basis
Total units purchased and total cost:
01.03.2021 ₹ 108 x 20 units = ₹ 2160
08.3.2021 ₹ 107 x 15 units = ₹ 1605
17.03.2021 ₹ 109 x 30 units = ₹ 3270
25.03.2021 ₹ 107 x 15 units = ₹ 1605
Total 80 units = ₹ 8640
Weighted Average Cost = ₹ 8640/80 units = ₹108
Total cost = ₹ 108 x 20 units = ₹ 2,160
Value of inventory to be considered while preparing Balance Sheet as on 31st March, 2021 is, Cost or
Net Realisable value whichever is lower i.e. ₹ 2,155.

Question – 4
Rohan Pvt. Ltd., a wholesaler in agriculture products, has valued the inventory on Net
Realizable Value on the ground that AS 2 does not apply to inventory of agriculture products.
[RTP May-2022]
Answer:
AS 2 does not apply to producers of agricultural products but applies to traders in agricultural products.
Hence AS 2 will apply to Rohan Pvt. Ltd. and it will have to value inventory at lower of cost or market
value.
Question – 5
Joy Ltd. purchased 20,000 kilograms of Raw Material @ ₹ 20 per kilogram during the year
2020-21. They have furnished you with the following further information for the year ended 31st
March, 2021:
Particulars Units Amount (₹)

Opening Inventory:
Finished Goods 2,000 1,00,000
Raw Materials 2,200 44,000
Direct Labour 3,06,000
Fixed Overheads 3,00,000
Sales 20,000 11,20,000
Closing Inventory:
Finished Goods 2,400
Raw Materials 1,800
The plant has a capacity to produce 30,000 Units of finished product per annum. However, the
actual production of finished products during the year 2020-21 was 20,400 Units. Due to a fall
in the market demand, the price of the finished goods in which the raw material has been
utilized is expected to be sold @ ₹ 40 per unit. The replacement cost of the raw material was
₹ 19 per kilogram.
You are required to ascertain the value of closing inventory as at 31st March, 2021 as per AS
2. [July 21 (5 Marks)]
ANSWER:
Statement Showing the Computation of Value of Closing Inventory
Value of Closing Finished Goods

Cost of Raw Material consumed (20,400 units X ₹ 20 per kg) 4,08,000
Direct Labour 3,06,000
Fixed overheads (3,00,000/30,000 x 20,400) 2,04,000
265
Cost of Production 9,18,000

Cost of Closing Inventory of finished Goods per unit (₹) (9,18,000/20,400) 45
Net Realization Value (NRV) Per unit 40
Since net realizable value is less than cost, closing inventory of Finished Goods will be valued at ₹ 40
per unit
Value of Closing Raw Materials
As NRV of finished goods is less than its cost, the relevant raw material will be valued at its replacement
cost, which is the best available measure of its NRV i.e. @ ₹ 19 per kg.
Therefore, value of closing inventory would be as under:
Finished Goods 2,400 units @ ₹ 40/- per unit ₹ 96,000
Raw Materials 1,800 kg @ ₹ 19/- per kg ₹ 34,200
Total ₹ 1,30,200
Working Note:

Question – 6
The company deals in three products, A, B and C, which are neither similar nor
interchangeable. At the time of closing of its account for the year 20X1-X2, the Historical Cost
and Net Realisable Value of the items of closing stock are determined as follows:
Items Historical Cost (₹ in Lakhs) Net Realisable Value (₹ in lakhs)

A 40 28
B 32 32
C 16 24
What will be the value of closing stock?
SOLUTION:
As per AS 2 (Revised) on ‘Valuation of Inventories’, inventories should be valued at the lower of cost
and net realisable value. Inventories should be written down to net realisable value on an item-by-item
basis in the given case.
Items Historical Cost Net Realisable Value Valuation of closing stock

(₹ in lakhs) (₹ in lakhs) (₹ in lakhs)
266
A 40 28 28
B 32 32 32
C 16 24 16
88 84 76
Hence, closing stock will be valued at ₹ 76 lakhs.
Question – 7
X Co. Limited purchased goods at the cost of ₹ 40 lakhs in October, 20X1. Till March, 20X2,
75% of the stocks were sold. The company wants to disclose closing stock at ₹ 10 lakhs. The
expected sale value is ₹ 11 lakhs and a commission at 10% on sale is payable to the agent.
Advise, what is the correct closing stock to be disclosed as at 31.3.20X2.
SOLUTION:
As per AS 2 (Revised) “Valuation of Inventories”, the inventories are to be valued at lower of cost or
net realisable value.
In this case, the cost of inventory is ₹ 10 lakhs. The net realisable value is 11,00,000 × 90% = ₹ 9,90,000.
So, the stock should be valued at ₹ 9,90,000.
Question – 8
In a production process, normal waste is 5% of input. 5,000 MT of input were put in process
resulting in wastage of 300 MT. Cost per MT of input is ₹ 1,000. The entire quantity of waste is
on stock at the year end. State with reference to Accounting Standard, how will you value the
inventories in this case?
SOLUTION:
As per AS 2 (Revised), abnormal amounts of wasted materials, labour and other production costs are
excluded from cost of inventories and such costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they
are incurred.
In this case, normal waste is 250 MT and abnormal waste is 50 MT. The cost of 250 MT will be included
in determining the cost of inventories (finished goods) at the year end. The cost of abnormal waste (50
MT x 1,052.6315 = ₹ 52,632) will be charged to the profit and loss statement.
Cost per MT (Normal Quantity of 4,750 MT) = 50,00,000 / 4,750 = ₹ 1,052.6315
Total value of inventory = 4,700 MT x ₹ 1,052.6315 = ₹ 49,47,368.
Question – 9
You are required to value the inventory per kg of finished goods consisting of:
₹ Per kg.
Material cost 200
Direct labour 40
267
Direct variable overhead 20
Fixed production charges for the year on normal working capacity of 2 lakh kgs is ₹ 20 lakhs.
4,000 kgs of finished goods are in stock at the year end.
SOLUTION:
In accordance with AS 2 (Revised), the cost of conversion include a systematic allocation of fixed and
variable overheads that are incurred in converting materials into finished goods. The allocation of fixed
overheads for the purpose of their inclusion in the cost of conversion is based on normal capacity of the
production facilities.
Cost per kg. of finished goods:
₹
Material Cost 200
Direct Labour 40
Direct Variable Production Overhead 20
20,00,000 10 70
Fixed Production Overhead ( )
2,00,000
270
Hence the value of 4,000 kgs. of finished goods = 4,000 kgs x ₹ 270 = ₹ 10,80,000

Cost of the plant 31,25,000
Initial delivery and handling costs 1,85,000
Cost of site preparation 4,50,000
Consultants’ fee 6,50,000
Estimated dismantling costs to be incurred after 5 years 2,50,000
Total cost of Plant 46,60,000
Question – 2
A property costing ₹ 10,00,000 is bought on 1.4.2020. Its estimated total physical life is 50
years. However, the company considers it likely that it will sell the property after 25 years.
The estimated residual value in 25 years' time, based on current year prices, is:
Case (a) ₹ 10,00,000
Case (b) ₹ 9,00,000
You are required to compute the amount of depreciation charged for the year ended
31.3.2021. [RTP Nov 21]
ANSWER:
Case (a)
269
The company considers that the residual value, based on prices prevailing at the balance sheet date, will
equal the cost.
There is, therefore, no depreciable amount and depreciation is zero.
Case (b)
be ₹ 9,00,000 and the depreciable amount is, therefore, ₹ 1,00,000.
Annual depreciation (on a straight-line basis) will be ₹ 4,000 [{10,00,000 – 9,00,000} ÷ 25].
Question – 3

Excluded from Cost:
Point no. 4,6,7
Question – 4
(i) Entity A carried plant and machinery in its books at ₹ 2,00,000 which were destroyed in
a fire. These machines were insured 'New for old' and were replaced by the insurance
company with new machines of fair value ₹ 20,00,000. The old destroyed machines were
acquired by the insurance company and the company did not receive any cash
compensation. State, how Entity A should account for the same?
(ii) Omega Ltd, a supermarket chain, is renovating one of its major stores. The store will
have more available space for store promotion outlets after the renovation and will
include a restaurant. Management is preparing the budgets for the year after the store
reopens, which include the cost of remodelling and the expectation of a 15% increase in
sales resulting from the store renovations, which will attract new customers.
270
Decide whether Omega Ltd. can capitalize the remodelling cost or not as per provisions
of AS 10 “Property Plant & Equipment”.
Answer:
(i) Entity A should account for a loss in the Statement of Profit and Loss on de-recognition of the
carrying value of plant and machinery in accordance with AS 10 on Property, Plant and Equipment.
Entity A should separately recognize a receivable and a gain in the income statement resulting from
the insurance proceeds once receipt is virtually certain. The receivable should be measured at the
fair value of assets provided by the insurer.
(ii) The expenditure in remodelling the store will create future economic benefits (in the form of 15%
of increase in sales). Moreover, the cost of remodelling can be measured reliably, therefore, it
should be capitalized in line with AS 10.
Question – 5
A Limited has contracted with a supplier to purchase machinery which is to be installed at its
new plant in four months' time. Special foundations were required for the machinery which
were to be prepared within this supply lead time. The cost of the site preparation and laying
foundations were ₹ 2,10,000. These activities were supervised by an Architect during the
entire period, who is employed for this purpose at a salary of ₹ 35,000 per month. The
machinery was purchased for ₹ 1,27,50,000 and sum of ₹ 2,12,500 was incurred towards
transportation charges to bring the machinery to the plant site. An Engineer was appointed at
a fees of ₹ 37,500 to supervise the installation of the machinery at the plant site. You are
required to ascertain the amount at which the machinery should be capitalized in the books of
A Limited.
B Limited, which operates a major chain of retail stores, has acquired a new store location.
The new location requires substantial renovation expenditure. Management expects that the
renovation will last for 4 months during which the store will be closed. Management has
prepared the budget for this period including expenditure related to construction and re-
modelling costs, salary of staff who shall be preparing the store before its opening and related
utilities cost. How would such expenditure be treated in the books of B Limited?
[July 2021(5 Marks)]
ANSWER:
(i) Statement Showing the Computation of the amount at which the Machinery should be capitalized
in the books of A Limited

Purchase cost of machinery Given 1,27,50,000
Add: Site Preparation Cost Given 2,10,000
Architect’s Salary Specific/ Attributable 1,40,000
overheads for 4 months (₹
35,000 x 4)
Initial Delivery Cost Transportation 2,12,500
271
Professional Fess for installation Engineer’s Fees 37,500

Total Cost of Machinery to be capitalized 1,33,50,000
(ii) Management should capitalize the costs of construction and remodelling the store, because they
are necessary to bring the store to the condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the
manner intended by management. The store cannot be opened without incurring the remodelling
expenditure, and thus the expenditure should be considered part of the asset. However, if the cost
of salaries, utilities and storage of goods are in the nature of operating expenditure that would be
incurred if the store was open, then these costs are not necessary to bring the store to the condition
necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management and should be
expensed.
Question – 6 (Capitalising the cost of “Remodelling” a Supermarket)

Entity A, a supermarket chain, is renovating one of its major stores. The store will have more
available space for in store promotion outlets after the renovation and will include a
restaurant. Management is preparing the budgets for the year after the store reopens, which
include the cost of remodelling and the expectation of a 15% increase in sales resulting from
the store renovations, which will attract new customers. State whether the remodelling cost
will be capitalised or not.
SOLUTION:
The expenditure in remodelling the store will create future economic benefits (in the form of 15% of
increase in sales) and the cost of remodelling can be measured reliably, therefore, it should be capitalised.
Question – 7
What happens if the cost of the previous part/inspection was/ was not identified in the
transaction in which the item was acquired or constructed?
SOLUTION:
De-recognition of the carrying amount occurs regardless of whether the cost of the previous
part/inspection was identified in the transaction in which the item was acquired or construed.
Question – 8
What will be your answer in the above question, if it is not practicable for an enterprise to
determine the carrying amount of the replaced part/inspection?
SOLUTION:
It may use the cost of the replacement or the estimated cost of a future similar inspection as an indication
of what the cost of the replaced part/existing inspection component was when the item was acquired
or constructed.
272
Question – 9
Entity A has an existing freehold factory property, which it intends to knock down and
redevelop. During the redevelopment period the company will move its production facilities to
another (temporary) site. The following incremental costs will be incurred:
1. Setup costs of ₹ 5,00,000 to install machinery in the new location.
2. Rent of ₹ 15,00,000
3. Removal costs of ₹ 3,00,000 to transport the machinery from the old location to the
temporary location.
Can these costs be capitalised into the cost of the new building?
SOLUTION:
Constructing or acquiring a new asset may result in incremental costs that would have been avoided if
the asset had not been constructed or acquired. These costs are not to be included in the cost of the asset
if they are not directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to
be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. The costs to be incurred by the
company are in the nature of costs of relocating or reorganising operations of the company and do not
meet the requirement of AS 10 (Revised) and therefore, cannot be capitalised.
Question – 10
Omega Ltd. contracted with a supplier to purchase machinery which is to be installed in its
one department in three months' time. Special foundations were required for the machinery
which were to be prepared within this supply lead time. The cost of the site preparation and
laying foundations were ₹ 1,40,000. These activities were supervised by a technician during
the entire period, who is employed for this purpose of ₹ 45,000 per month. The machine was
purchased at ₹ 1,58,00,000 and ₹ 50,000 transportation charges were incurred to bring the
machine to the factory site. An Architect was appointed at a fee of ₹ 30,000 to supervise
machinery installation at the factory site. You are required to ascertain the amount at which
the Machinery should be capitalized
SOLUTION:
Particulars ₹
Purchase Price Given 1,58,00,000
Add: Site Preparation Cost Given 1,40,000
Technician’s Salary Specific/Attributable overheads for 1,35,000

Initial Delivery Cost Transportation 50,000
Professional Fess for Installation Architect’s Fees 30,000
Total Cost of Machinery 1,61,55,000
273
Question – 11 (Capitalisation of directly attributable costs)

Entity A, which operates a major chain of supermarkets, has acquired a new store location.
The new location requires significant renovation expenditure. Management expects that the
renovations will last for 3 months during which the supermarket will be closed.
Management has prepared the budget for this period including expenditure related to
construction and remodelling costs, salaries of staff who will be preparing the store before its
opening and related utilities costs. What will be the treatment of such expenditures?
SOLUTION:
Management should capitalise the costs of construction and remodelling the supermarket, because they
are necessary to bring the store to the condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner
intended by management. The supermarket cannot be opened without incurring the remodelling
expenditure, and thus the expenditure should be considered part of the asset.
However, if the cost of salaries, utilities and storage of goods are in the nature of operating expenditure
that would be incurred if the supermarket was open, then these costs are not necessary to bring the store
to the condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management and
should be expensed.
Question – 12 (Operating costs incurred in the start-up period)

An amusement park has a 'soft' opening to the public, to trial run its attractions. Tickets are
sold at a 50% discount during this period and the operating capacity is 80%. The official
opening day of the amusement park is three months later. Management claim that the soft
opening is a trial run necessary for the amusement park to be in the condition capable of
operating in the intended manner. Accordingly, the net operating costs incurred should be
capitalised. Comment.
SOLUTION:
The net operating costs should not be capitalised, but should be recognised in the Statement of Profit
and Loss.
Even though it is running at less than full operating capacity (in this case 80% of operating capacity),
there is sufficient evidence that the amusement park is capable of operating in the manner intended by
management. Therefore, these costs are specific to the start-up and, therefore, should be expensed as
incurred.
Question – 13 (Consideration received comprising a combination of non-monetary and

monetary assets)
Entity A exchanges land with a book value of ₹ 10,00,000 for cash of ₹ 20,00,000 and plant and
machinery valued at ₹ 25,00,000. What will be the measurement cost of the assets received.
(Consider that the transaction has commercial substance)?
SOLUTION:
274
Since the transaction has commercial substance the plant and machinery would be recorded at ₹
25,00,000, which is equivalent to the fair value of the land of ₹ 45,00,000 less the cash received of ₹
20,00,000.
Question – 14 (Exchange of assets that lack commercial substance)

Entity A exchanges car X with a book value of ₹ 13,00,000 and a fair value of ₹ 13,25,000 for
cash of ₹ 15,000 and car Y which has a fair value of ₹ 13,10,000. The transaction lacks
commercial substance as the company’s cash flows are not expected to change as a result of
the exchange. It is in the same position as it was before the transaction. What will be the
measurement cost of the assets received?
SOLUTION:
The entity recognises the assets received at the book value of car X. Therefore, it recognises cash of ₹
15,000 and car Y as PPE with a carrying value of ₹ 12,85,000.
Question – 15 (Revaluation on a class by class basis)

Entity A is a large manufacturing group. It owns a number of industrial buildings, such as
factories and warehouses and office buildings in several capital cities. The industrial buildings
are located in industrial zones, whereas the office buildings are in central business districts
of the cities. Entity A's management want to apply the revaluation model as per AS 10
(Revised) to the subsequent measurement of the office buildings but continue to apply the
historical cost model to the industrial buildings.
State whether this is acceptable under AS 10 (Revised) or not with reasons?
SOLUTION:
Entity A's management can apply the revaluation model only to the office buildings. The office buildings
can be clearly distinguished from the industrial buildings in terms of their function, their nature and their
general location. AS 10 (Revised) permits assets to be revalued on a class by class basis.
The different characteristics of the buildings enable them to be classified as different PPE classes. The
different measurement models can, therefore, be applied to these classes for subsequent measurement.
However, all properties within the class of office buildings must be carried at revalued amount.
Question – 16
Entity A has a policy of not providing for depreciation on PPE capitalised in the year until the
following year, but provides for a full year's depreciation in the year of disposal of an asset. Is
this acceptable?
SOLUTION:
The depreciable amount of a tangible fixed asset should be allocated on a systematic basis over its useful
life. The depreciation method should reflect the pattern in which the asset's future economic benefits are
expected to be consumed by the entity.
275
Useful life means the period over which the asset is expected to be available for use by the entity.
Depreciation should commence as soon as the asset is acquired and is available for use. Thus, the policy
of Entity A is not acceptable.
Question – 17 (Chang in estimate of useful life)

Entity A purchased an asset on 1st January 20X1 for ₹ 1,00,000 and the asset had an estimated
useful life of 10 years and a residual value of nil.
On 1st January 20X5, the directors review the estimated life and decide that the asset will
probably be useful for a further 4 years.
Calculate the amount of depreciation for each year, if company charges depreciaion on
Straight Line basis.
SOLUTION:
The entity has charged depreciation using the straight-line method at ₹ 10,000 per annum i.e
(1,00,000/10 years).
On 1st January 20X5, the asset's net book value is [1,00,000 – (10,000 x 4)] ₹ 60,000.
The remaining useful life is 4 years.
The company should amend the annual provision for depreciation to charge the unamortised cost over
the revised remaining life of four years.
Consequently, it should charge depreciation for the next 4 years at ₹ 15,000 per annum i.e. (60,000 /
4 years).
Note: Depreciation is recognised even if the Fair value of the Asset exceeds its Carrying Amount. Repair
and maintenance of an asset do not negate the need to depreciate it.
Question – 18
Entity B constructs a machine for its own use. Construction is completed on 1st November
20X1 but the company does not begin using the machine until 1st March 20X2. Comment.
SOLUTION:
The entity should begin charging depreciation from the date the machine is ready for use – that is, 1st
November 20X1. The fact that the machine was not used for a period after it was ready to be used is
not relevant in considering when to begin charging depreciation.
Question – 19 (Depreciation where residual value is the same as or close to Original cost)
A property costing ₹ 10,00,000 is bought in 20X1. Its estimated total physical life is 50 years.
However, the company considers it likely that it will sell the property after 20 years.
The estimated residual value in 2 years’ time, based on 20X1 prices, is:
Case (a) ₹ 10,00,000
Case (b) ₹ 9,00,000.
Calculate the amount of depreciation.
276
SOLUTION:
Case (a)
equal the cost.
There is, therefore, no depreciable amount and depreciation is correctly zero.
Case (b)
be ₹ 9,00,000 and the depreciable amount is, therefore, ₹ 1,00,000.
Annual depreciation (on a straight-line basis) will be ₹ 5,000 [{10,00,000 – 9,00,000} ÷ 20].
Question – 20 (Determination of appropriate Depreciation Method)

Entity B manufactures industrial chemicals and uses blending machines in the production
process. The output of the blending machines is consistent from year to year and they can be
used for different products.
However, maintenance costs increase from year to year and a new generation of machines
with significant improvements over existing machines is available every 5 years. Suggest the
depreciation method to the management.
SOLUTION:
The straight-line depreciation method should be adopted, because the production output is consistent
from year to year.
Factors such as maintenance costs or technical obsolescence should be considered in determining the
blending machines’ useful life.
Question – 21 (Gain on replacement of Insured Assets)

Entity A carried plant and machinery in its books at ₹ 2,00,000. These were destroyed in a fire.
The assets were insured 'New for old' and were replaced by the insurance company with new
machines that cost ₹ 20,00,000. The machines were acquired by the insurance company and
the company did not receive ₹ 20,00,000 as cash compensation. State, how Entity A should
account for the same?
SOLUTION:
Entity A should account for a loss in the Statement of Profit and Loss on derecognition of the carrying
value of plant and machinery in accordance with AS 10 (Revised).
Entity A should separately recognise a receivable and a gain in the income statement resulting from the
insurance proceeds under AS 29 (Revised)* once receipt is virtually certain. The receivable should be
measured at the fair value of assets that will be provided by the insurer.

AS - 11 : Foreign Exchange Transactions
“Foreign Exchange Transactions”

Question – 1
Om Ltd. purchased an item of property, plant and equipment for US $ 50 lakh on 01.04.2020
and the same was fully financed by the foreign currency loan [US $] repayable in five equal
instalments annually. (Exchange rate at the time of purchase was 1 US $ = ₹ 60]. As on
31.03.2021 the first instalment was paid when 1 US $ fetched ₹ 62.00. The entire loss on
exchange was included in cost of goods sold by the accountant. Om Ltd. provides
depreciation on an item of property, plant and equipment at 20% on WDV basis and wants to
exercise the option to adjust the cost of asset for exchange difference arising out of loan
restatement and payment.
You are required to calculate the amount of exchange loss, its treatment and depreciation on
this item of property, plant and equipment. [MTP Oct 21 (5 Marks)]
ANSWER:
Exchange differences arising on restatement or repayment of liabilities incurred for the purpose of
acquiring an item of property, plant and equipment should be adjusted in the carrying amount of the
respective item of property, plant and equipment as Om Ltd. has exercised the option and it is long term
foreign currency monetary item. Thus, the entire exchange loss due to variation of ₹ 20 lakh on
31.03.2021 on payment of US $ 10 lakh, should be added to the carrying amount of an item of property,
plant and equipment and not to the cost of goods sold. Further, depreciation on the unamortized
depreciable amount should also be provided.
Calculation of Exchange loss:
Foreign currency loan (in ₹) = (50 lakh $ x ₹ 60) = ₹ 3,000 lakh
Exchange loss on outstanding loan on 31.03.2021 = ₹ 40 lakh US $ x (62.00-60.00) = ₹ 80 lakh.
So, ₹ 80 lakh should also be added to cost of an item of property, plant and equipment with
corresponding credit to outstanding loan in addition to ₹ 20 lakh on account of exchange loss on
payment of instalment. The total cost of an item of property, plant and equipment to be increased by
₹ 100 lakh. Total depreciation to be provided for the year 2020 - 2021 = 20% of (₹ 3,000 Iakh + 100
lakh) = ₹ 620 lakh.
Question – 2
“Explain “monetary item” as per Accounting Standard 11. How are foreign currency monetary
items to be recognized at each Balance Sheet date? Classify the following as monetary or non-
monetary item:
(i) Share Capital
(ii) Trade Receivables
278
(iii) Investments
(iv) Fixed Assets. [MTP Nov 21 (5 Marks)]
ANSWER:
As per AS 11 ‘The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates’, Monetary items are money held and
assets and liabilities to be received or paid in fixed or determinable amounts of money.
Foreign currency monetary items should be reported using the closing rate at each balance sheet date.
However, in certain circumstances, the closing rate may not reflect with reasonable accuracy the amount
in reporting currency that is likely to be realised from, or required to disburse, a foreign currency
monetary item at the balance sheet date. In such circumstances, the relevant monetary item should be
reported in the reporting currency at the amount which is likely to be realised from or required to
disburse, such item at the balance sheet date.
Share capital Non-monetary
Trade receivables Monetary
Investments Non-monetary
Fixed assets Non-monetary
Question – 3
Answer the Following:
(i) PP Ltd. and Indian Company acquired long term finance from WW (P) Ltd, a U.S.
Company, amounting to ₹ 40,88,952. The transaction was recorded at US $ 1 = 72.00,
talking exchange rate prevailing at the date of transaction. The exchange rate on balance
sheet date (31.02.2021) is US $ 1 = ₹ 73.60.
(ii) Trade receivables of PP Ltd. include amount receivable from Preksha Ltd, ₹ 20,00,150
recorded at the prevailing exchange rate on the date of sales, transaction recorded at
US $ 1 = ₹ 73.40. The exchange rate on balance sheet date (31.03.2021) is US $ 1 = ₹
73.60. Exchange rate on 1st April, 2020 is US $ 1 = ₹ 74.00
You are required to calculate the amount of exchange difference and also explain the
accounting treatment needed in the above two cases as per AS 11 in the books of PP Ltd.
[Dec 21 (5 Marks)]
ANSWER:
(i) Long term Finance
Foreign Currency ₹
Rate
Initial recognition US $ 56,791 (40,88,952/72) 1 US $ = ₹ 72 40,88,952
Rate on Balance sheet date 1 US $ = ₹73.60
Exchange Difference Loss [US $ 56,791 x (73.60 – 72)] 90,866
(rounded off)
279
As per AS 11 “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 recognized as income or as expenses in the period in which they
arise.
However, at the option of an entity, exchange differences 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 the acquisition
of a non-depreciable capital asset can be accumulated in a “Foreign Currency Monetary Item
Translation Difference Account” in the enterprise’s financial statement and amortized over the
balance period of such long-term asset/ liability, by recognition as income or expenses in each of
such periods.
Treatment needed in this case: PP Ltd. can either Debit Foreign Currency Monetary Item
Translation Difference (FCMITD) A/c or Debit Profit and Loss A/c by ₹ 90,866 and Credit Loan

Exchange Difference Gain [US $ 27,250 x (73.60 – 5,450
73.40)]
As per AS 11 “The Effects of Changes in foreign Exchange Rates”, exchange differences on trade
receivables amounting ₹ 5,450 is required to be transferred to Profit and Loss A/c.
Treatment needed in this case: Credit Profit and loss account by ₹ 5,450.

Question – 5
Kumar Ltd. borrowed US $ 3,00,000 on 31-12-2020 which will repaid as on 30-06-2021. Kumar
Ltd. prepares its financial statements ending on 31-03-2021. Rate of exchange between
reporting currency (Rupee) and foreign currency (US$) on different dates are as under:
31-12-2020 1 US $ = ₹ 44.00
31-03-2021 1 US $ = ₹ 44.50
30-06-2021 1 US $ = ₹ 44.75
(i) Calculate Borrowings in reporting currency to be recognized in the books on above

mentioned dates and also show journal entries for the same.
(ii) if borrowings were repaid on 28-2-2021 on which date exchange rate was 1 US $ = ₹ 44.20
then what entry should be passed? [RTP May-2022]
Answer:
(i) As per AS 11 ‘The Effect of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates”, a foreign currency transaction
should be recorded, on initial recognition in the reporting currency, by applying to the foreign
currency amount the exchange rate between the reporting currency and the foreign currency at
the date of the transaction. Moreover, at each balance sheet date, foreign currency monetary items
should be reported using the closing rate. Accordingly, on 31.12.2020 borrowings will be recorded
at ₹ 1,32,00,000 (i.e., ₹ 3,00,000 × ₹ 44.00). On 31.3.2021 borrowings (monetary items) will be
recorded at ₹ 1,33,50,000 (i.e. $ 3,00,000 × ₹ 44.50).

Working Notes:
281
(i) The exchange difference of ₹ 1,50,000 is arising because the transaction has been reported at
different rate (₹ 44.50 = 1 US $) from the rate initially recorded (i.e., ₹ 44 = 1 US $) from
the rate initially recorded (i.e., ₹ 44 = 1 US $)
(ii) The exchange difference of ₹ 75,000 is arising because the transaction has been settled at an
exchange rate (₹ 44.75 = 1 US$) different from the rate at which reported in the last financial
statements (₹ 44.50 = 1 US$).
(iii) The exchange difference of ₹ 60,000 is arising because the transaction has been settled at a
different rate (i.e., ₹ 44.20 = 1 US $) than the rate at which initially recorded (1 US $ = ₹
44.00)

Question – 7
Exchange Rate per $

Goods purchased on 1.1.20X1 for US $ 15,000 ₹ 75
Exchange rate on 31.3.20X1 ₹ 74
Date of actual payment 7.7.20X1 ₹ 73
You are required to ascertain the loss/ gain to be recognized for financial years ended 31 st
March, 20X1 and 31st March, 20X2 as per AS 11.
SOLUTION:
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 1.1.20X1 and corresponding creditors would be recorded at ₹ 11,25,000 (i.e. $15,000 × ₹ 75)
According to the standard, at the balance sheet date all monetary transactions should be reported using
the closing rate. Thus, creditors of US $15,000 on 31.3.20X1 will be reported at ₹ 11,10,000 (i.e. $15,000
× ₹ 74) and exchange profit of ₹ 15,000 (i.e. 11,25,000 – 11,10,000) should be credited to Profit and
Loss account in the year ended 31st March, 20X1.
282
On 7.7.20X1, creditors of $15,000 is paid at the rate of ₹ 73. As per AS 11, exchange difference on
settlement of the account should also be transferred to Profit and Loss account. Therefore, ₹ 15,000 (i.e.
11,10,000 – 10,95,000) will be credited to Profit and Loss account in the year ended 31st March, 20X2.

Rau Ltd. purchased a plant for US$ 1,00,000 on 01st February 20X1, payable after three
months. Company entered into a forward contract for three months @ ₹ 49.15 per dollar.
Exchange rate per dollar on 01st Feb. was ₹ 48.85. How will you recognise the profit or loss
on forward contract in the books of Rau Ltd.?
SOLUTION:
Forward Rate ₹ 49.15
Less: Spot Rate (₹ 48.85)
Total Loss (1,00,000 x 0.30) ₹ 30,000
Contract period 3 months (2 months falling in the year ended 31st March, 20X1)
283
Loss to be recognised (30,000/3) x 2 = ₹ 20,000 in the year ended 31st March, 20X1. Rest ₹ 10,000
will be recognised in the following year.
In recording a forward exchange contract intended for trading or speculation purposes, the premium or
discount on the contract is ignored and at each balance sheet date, the value of the contract is marked
to its current market value and the gain or loss on the contract is recognised.
Question – 10
Mr. A bought a forward contract for three months of US$ 1,00,000 on 1st December at 1 US$
= ₹ 47.10 when exchange rate was US$ 1 = ₹ 47.02. On 31st December when he closed his
books exchange rate was US$ 1 = ₹ 47.15. On 31st January, he decided to sell the contract at
₹ 47.18 per dollar. Show how the profits from contract will be recognised in the books.
SOLUTION:
Since the forward contract was for speculation purpose the premium on contract i.e. the difference
between the spot rate and contract rate will not be recorded in the books. Only when the contract is
sold the difference between the contract rate and sale rate will be recorded in the Profit & Loss Account.
Sale Rate ₹ 47.18
Less: Contract Rate (₹ 47.10)
Total Profit (1,00,000 x 0.08) ₹ 8,000
Question – 11
Assets and liabilities and income and expenditure items in respect of foreign branches
(integral foreign operations) are translated into Indian rupees at the prevailing rate of
exchange at the end of the year. The resultant exchange differences in the case of profit, is
carried to other Liabilities Account and the Loss, if any, is charged to the statement of profit
and loss. Comment.
SOLUTION:
The financial statements of an integral foreign operation (for example, dependent foreign branches)
should be translated using the principles and procedures described in AS 11. The individual items in the
financial statements of a foreign operation are translated as if all its transactions had been entered into
by the reporting enterprise itself.
Individual items in the financial statements of the foreign operation are translated at the actual rate on
the date of transaction. For practical reasons, a rate that approximates the actual rate at the date of
transaction is often used, for example, an average rate for a week or a month may be used for all
transactions in each foreign currency during the period. The foreign currency monetary items (for
example cash, receivables, payables) should be reported using the closing rate at each balance sheet date.
Non-monetary items (for example, fixed assets, inventories, investments in equity shares) which are
carried in terms of historical cost denominated in a foreign currency should be reported using the
exchange date at the date of transaction. Thus the cost and depreciation of the tangible fixed assets is
284
translated using the exchange rate at the date of purchase of the asset if asset is carried at cost. If the
fixed asset is carried at fair value, translation should be done using the rate existed on the date of the
valuation. The cost of inventories is translated at the exchange rates that existed when the cost of
inventory was incurred and realisable value is translated applying exchange rate when realisable value
is determined which is generally closing rate.
Exchange difference arising on the translation of the financial statements of integral foreign operation
should be charged to profit and loss account. Exchange difference arising on the translation of the
financial statement of foreign operation may have tax effect which should be dealt as per AS 22
‘Accounting for Taxes on Income’.
Thus, the treatment by the management of translating all assets and liabilities; income and expenditure
items in respect of foreign branches at the prevailing rate at the year end and also the treatment of
resultant exchange difference is not in consonance with AS 11.

Question – 13
A Ltd. purchased fixed assets accosting ₹ 3,000 lakhs on 1.1.20X1 and the same was fully
financed by foreign currency loan (U.S. Dollars) payable in three annual equal instalments.
Exchange rates were 1 Dollar = ₹40.00 and ₹ 42.50 as on 1.1.20X1 and 31.12.20X1
respectively. First instalment was paid on 31.12.20X1. The entire difference in foreign
exchange has been capitalised.
You are required to state, how these transaction would be accounted for.
SOLUTION:
As per AS 11 ‘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 expenses in the period in which they arise. Thus exchange
differences arising on repayment of liabilities incurred for the purpose of acquiring fixed assets are
recognised as income or expense.
286
Calculation of Exchange Difference:

₹ 3,000 lakhs
Foreign currency loan = = 75 lakhs US Dollars
₹ 40
Exchange difference = 75 lakhs US Dollars x (42.50 – 40.00) = ₹ 187.50 lakhs (including exchange loss
on payment of first instalment)
Therefore, entire loss due to exchange difference amounting ₹ 187.50 lakhs should be charged to profit
and loss account for the year.
Note: The above answer has been given on the basis that the company has not exercised the option of
capitalisation available under paragraph 46 of AS 11. However, if the company opts to avail the benefit
given in paragraph 46A, then nothing is required to be done since the company has done the correct
treatment.
Question – 14
Explain briefly the accounting treatment needed in the following cases as per AS 11 as on
31.3. 20X1.
Trade receivables include amount receivable from Umesh ₹ 5,00,000 recorded at the
prevailing exchange rate on the date of sales, transaction recorded at US $ 1= ₹58.50.
Long term loan taken from a U.S. Company, amounting to ₹ 60,00,000. It was recorded at US
$ 1 = ₹ 55.60, taking exchange rate prevailing at the date of transaction. US $ 1 = ₹61.20 was
on 31.3. 20X1.
SOLUTION:
As per AS 11 “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 expenses in the period in which they arise.
However, at the option of an entity, exchange differences 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 the acquisition of a non-
depreciable capital asset can be accumulated in a “Foreign Currency Monetary Item Translation
Difference Account” in the enterprise’s financial statements and amortised over the balance period of
such long-term asset/ liability, by recognition as income or expense in each of such periods.

Thus Exchange Difference on Long term loan amounting ₹ 6,04,317 may either be charged to Profit and
Loss A/c or to Foreign Currency Monetary Item Translation Difference Account but exchange difference
on debtors amounting ₹ 23,077 is required to be transferred to Profit and Loss A/c.

AS - 12 : Accounting for Government Grants
“Accounting for Government Grants”

Question – 1
Darshan Ltd. purchased a Machinery on 1st April, 2016 for ₹ 130 lakhs (Useful life is 4 years).
Government grant received is ₹ 40 lakhs for the purchase of above Machinery.
Salvage value at the end of useful life is estimated at ₹ 60 lakhs.
Darshan Ltd. decides to treat the grant as deferred income.
Your are required to calculate the amount of depreciation and grant to be recognized in profit
& loss account for the year ending 31st March, 2017,31st March, 2018, 31st March, 2019 &
31st March, 2020.
Darshan Ltd. follows straight line method for charging depreciation.
[MPT Oct 21 (5 Marks)]
ANSWER:
As per 12 “Accounting for government grants”, grants related to depreciable assets, if treated as deferred
income are recognized in the profit and loss statement on a systematic and rational basis over the useful
life of the asset.
Amount of depreciation and grant to be recognized in the profit and loss account each year
Depreciation per year:
₹ in lakhs
Cost of the Asset 130
Less: Salvage value (60)
70
Depreciation per year (70 lakhs/ 4) 17.50
₹ 17.50 Lakhs depreciation will be recognized for the year ending 31st March, 2017, 31st March, 2018,
31st March, 2019 and 31st March, 2020.
Amount of grant recognized in Profit and Loss account each year:
40 lakhs /4 years = ₹ 10 Lakhs for the year ending 31st March, 2017, 31st March, 2018, 31st March, 2019
and 31st March, 2020.
Question – 2
Caseworker Limited received a specific grant of ₹ 6 crore for acquiring the plant of ₹ 30 crore
during financial year 2015-2016 having useful life of 10 years. During the financial year 2020-
2021, due to non-compliance of conditions laid down for the grant of ₹ 6 crore, the company
had to refund the grant to the Government. What should be the treatment of the refund if grant
289
was deducted from the cost of the plant during financial year 2015-2016? Assume
depreciation is charged on fixed assets as per Straight Line Method.
ANSWER:
As per AS 12, the amount refundable in respect of grant related to specific fixed assets should be recorded
by increasing the book value of the asset or by reducing the capital reserve or the deferred income
balance, as appropriate, by the amount refundable. Where the book value of the asset is increased,
depreciation on the revised book value should be provided prospectively over the residual useful life of
the asset.
Where grant was deducted from the cost of the asset, initial value of the plant after deduction of grant
amount of ₹ 6 crore would have been = ₹ 30 crore – ₹ 6 crore = ₹ 24 crore.
Carrying value of the plant after 5 years on 1.4.2020 = [(₹ 24 crore / 10 years) x 5 years] = ₹ 12 crore.
Annual depreciation charge would be ₹ 2.4 crore.
On refund of grant to the Government, the book value of the plant shall be increased by ₹ 6 crore i.e.
₹ 12 crore + ₹ 6 crore = ₹ 18 crore. The increased cost of ₹ 18 crore of the plant should be amortised
prospectively over remaining 5 years of useful residual life. Depreciation charge in the year 2020-21
would be ₹ 18 crore/ 5 years = ₹ 3.6 crore instead of earlier ₹2.4 crore.
Question – 3
D Ltd. acquired a machine on 01-04-2017 for ₹ 20,00,000. The useful life is 5 years. The
company had applied on 01-04-2017, for a subsidy to the tune of 80% of the cost. The sanction
letter for subsidy was received in November 2020. The Company’s Fixed Assets Account for
the financial year 2020-21 shows a credit balance as under:
Particulars ₹
Machine (Original Cost) 20,00,000
Less: Accumulated Depreciation (from 2017-18 to 2019-20 on Straight Line
Method) 12,00,000
8,00,000
Less: Grant received (16,00,000)
Balance (8,00,000)
You are required to explain how should the company deal with this asset in its accounts for
2020-21? [RTP Nov 21]
ANSWER:
From the above account, it is inferred that the Company has deducted grant from the book value of
asset for accounting of Government Grants. Accordingly, out of the ₹ 16,00,000 that has been received,
₹ 8,00,000 (being the balance in Machinery A/c) should be credited to the machinery A/c.
290
The balance ₹ 8,00,000 may be credited to P&L A/c, since already the cost of the asset to the tune of ₹
12,00,000 had been debited to P&L A/c in the earlier years by way of depreciation charge, and ₹
8,00,000 transferred to P&L A/c now would be partial recovery of that cost.
There is no need to provide depreciation for 2020-21 or 2021-22 as the depreciable amount is now Nil.
Question – 4
A fixed asset is purchased for ₹ 30 lakhs. Government grant received towards it is ₹ 12 lakhs.
Residual Value is ₹ 6 lakhs and useful life is 4 years. The company charges depreciation based
on Straight-Line method. Asset is shown in the balance sheet net of grant. After 1 year, grant
becomes refundable to the extent of ₹ 7.5 lakhs due to non-compliance with certain
conditions. You are required to give necessary journal entries for second year.

Question – 5
On 01.04.2018, XYZ Ltd. received Government grant of ₹ 100 Lakhs for an acquisition of new
machinery costing ₹ 500 lakhs. The grant was received and credited to the cost of the assets.
The life span of the machinery is 5 years. The machinery is depreciated at 20% on WDV
method. The company had to refund the entire grant in 2nd April, 2021 due to non-fulfilment
of certain conditions which was imposed by the government at the time of approval of grant.
How do you deal with the refund of grant to the Government in the books of XYZ Ltd. as per AS
12? [MTP March 22 (5 Marks)]
Answer:
According to AS 12 on Accounting for Government Grants, the amount refundable in respect of a grant
related to a specific fixed asset (if the grant had been credited to the cost of fixed asset at the time of
receipt of grant) should be recorded by increasing the book value of the asset, by the amount refundable.
Where the book value is increased, depreciation on the revised book value should be provided
prospectively over the residual useful life of the asset.

Question – 6
Alps Limited has received the following Grants from the Government during the year ended
31st March, 2021:
(i) ₹ 120 Lacs received as Subsidy from the Central Government for setting up an Industrial
undertaking in Medak, a notified backward area.
(ii) ₹ 15 Lacs Grant received from the Central Government on installation of Effluent
Treatment Plant.
292
(iii) ₹ 25 Lacs received from State Government for providing Medical facilities to its workmen
during the pandemic.
Advise Alps Limited on the treatment of the above Grants in its books of Account in
accordance with AS-12 "Government Grants". [July 2021 (5 Marks)]
ANSWER:
(i) As per AS 12 ‘Accounting for Government Grants’, where the government grants are in the nature
of promoters’ contribution i.e., they are given with reference to the total investment in an
undertaking or by way of contribution towards its total capital outlay and no repayment is
ordinarily expected in respect thereof, the grants are treated as capital reserve which can be neither
distributed as dividend nor considered as deferred income. In the given case, the subsidy received
from the Central Government for setting up an industrial undertaking in Medak is neither in relation
to specific fixed asset nor in relation in revenue. Thus, the amount of ₹ 120 Lacs should be credited
to capital reserve.
(Note: Subsidy for setting up an industrial undertaking is considered to be in the nature of
promoter’s contribution)
(ii) As per AS 12 ‘Accounting for Government Grants’, two methods of presentation in financial
statements of grants related to specific fixed assets are regarded as acceptable alternatives –
(a) The grant is shown as a deduction from the gross value of the asset concerned in arriving at
its book value. The grant is thus recognised in the profit and loss statement over the useful life
of a depreciable assets by way of a reduced depreciation charge. Where the grant equals the
whole, or virtually the whole, of the cost of the asset, the asset is shown in the balance sheet
at a nominal value.
(b) Grants related to depreciable asset are treated as deferred income which is recognised in the
profit and loss statement on a systematic and rational basis over the useful life of the asset.
In the given case, ₹ 15 Lacs was received as grant from the Central Government for installation of
Effluent Treatment Plant. Since the grant was received for a fixed asset, either of the above methods
can be adopted.
(iii) ₹ 25 lacs received from State Government for providing medical facilities to its workmen during
the pandemic is a grant received in nature of revenue grant. Such grants are generally presented as
a credit in the profit and loss statements, either separate or under a general heading such as “Other
Income”. Alternatively, ₹ 25 lacs may be deducted in reporting the related expense i.e., employee
benefit expenses.

Question – 9
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.
SOLUTION:
As per AS 12 ‘Accounting for Government Grants’, when government grant is received for a specific
purpose, it should be utilised for the same. So the grant received for setting up a factory is not available
for distribution of dividend.
In the second case, even if the company has not spent money for the acquisition of land, land should be
recorded in the books of accounts at a nominal value. The treatment of both the elements of the grant
is incorrect as per AS 12.
Question – 10
Top & Top Limited has set up its business in a designated backward area which entitles the
company to receive from the Government of India a subsidy of 20% of the cost of investment,
295
for which no repayment was ordinarily expected. Moreover, there was no condition that the
company should purchase any specified assets for this subsidy. Having fulfilled all the
conditions under the scheme, the company on its investment of ₹ 50 crore in capital assets
received ₹ 10 crore from the Government in January, 20X2 (accounting period being 20X1-
20X2). The company wants to treat this receipt as an item of revenue and thereby reduce the
losses on profit and loss account for the year ended 31st March, 20X2.
Keeping in view the relevant Accounting Standard, discuss whether this action is justified or
not.
SOLUTION:
As per para 10 of AS 12 ‘Accounting for Government Grants’, where the government grants are of the
nature of promoters’ contribution, i.e. they are given with reference to the total investment in an
undertaking or by way of contribution towards its total capital outlay (for example, central investment
subsidy scheme) and no repayment is ordinarily expected in respect thereof, the grants are treated as
capital reserve which can be neither distributed as dividend nor considered as deferred income.
In the given case, the subsidy received is neither in relation to specific fixed asset nor in relation to
revenue. Thus, it is inappropriate to recognise government grants in the profit and loss statement, since
they are not earned but represent an incentive provided by government without related costs. The
correct treatment is to credit the subsidy to capital reserve. Therefore, the accounting treatment desired
by the company is jot proper.
Question – 11
How would you treat the following in the accounts in accordance with AS 12 ‘Government
Grants’?
(i) ₹ 35 lakhs received from the Local Authority for providing Medical facilities to the
employees.
(ii) ₹ 100 lakhs received as Subsidy from the Central Government for setting up a unit in
notified backward area. This subsidy is in nature of nature of promoters’ contribution.
SOLUTION:
(i) ₹ 35 lakhs received from the local authority for providing medical facilities to the employees is a
grant received in nature of revenue grant. Such grants are generally presented as a credit in the
profit and loss statement, either separately or under a general heading such as ‘Other Income’.
Alternatively, ₹ 35 lakhs may be deducted in reporting the related expense i.e. employee benefit
expenses.
(ii) As per AS 12 ‘Accounting for Government Grants’, where the government grants are in the nature
of promoters’ contribution, i.e. they are given with reference to the total investment in an
undertaking or by way of contribution towards its total capital outlay and no repayment is
ordinarily expected in respected in respect thereof, the grants are treated as capital reserve which
can be neither distributed as dividend nor considered s deferred income. In the given case, he
subsidy received from the Central Government for setting up a unit in notified backward area is
neither in relation to specific fixed asset not in relation to revenue. Thus, amount of ₹ 100 lakhs
should be credited to capital reserve.

Question – 14
On 1.4.20X1, ABC Ltd. received Government grant of ₹ 300 lakhs for acquisition of machinery
costing ₹ 1,500 lakhs. The grant was credited to the cost of the asset. The life of the machinery
is 5 years. The machinery is depreciated at 20% on WDV basis. The Company had to refund
the grant in May 20X4 due to non-fulfillment of certain conditions.
How you would deal with the refund of grant in the books of ABC Ltd. assuming that the
company did not charge any depreciation for year 20X4?
SOLUTION:
According to para 21 of AS 12 on Accounting for Government Grants, the amount refundable in respect
of a grant related to a specific fixed asset should be recorded by increasing the book value of the asset
or by reducing deferred income balance, as appropriate, by the amount refundable. Where the book
value is increased, depreciation on the revised book value should be provided prospectively over the
residual useful life of the asset.

A Ltd. purchased a machinery for ₹ 40 lakhs. (Useful life 4 years and residual value ₹ 8 lakhs)
Government grant received is ₹ 16 lakhs.
Show the Journal Entry to be passed at the time of refund of grant in the third year and the
value of the fixed assets, if:
(1) the grant is credited to Fixed Assets A/c.
(2) the grant is credited to Deferred Grant A/c.
SOLUTION:
299
In the books of A Ltd.

Journal Entries (at the time of refund of grant)
(1) If the grant is credited to Fixed Assets Account:
₹ ₹
I Fixed Assets A/c Dr. 16 lakhs
To Bank A/c 16 akhs
(Being grant refunded)
II. The balance of fixed assets after two years depreciation will be ₹16 lakhs (W.N.1) and after
refund of grant it will become (₹16 lakhs + ₹16 lakhs) = ₹32 lakhs on which depreciation
will be charged for remaining two years. Depreciation = (32-8)/2 = ₹12 lakhs p.a. will be
charged for next two years.
(2) If the grant is credited to Deferred Grant Account:
As per para 14 of AS 12 ‘Accounting for Government Grants,’ income from Deferred Grant Account
is allocated to Profit and Loss account usually over the periods and in the proportions in which
depreciation on related assets is charged. Accordingly, in the first two years (₹16 lakhs /4 years) =
₹4 lakhs p.a. x 2 years = ₹ 8 lakhs were credited to Profit and Loss Account and ₹ 8 lakhs was the
balance of Deferred Grant Account after two years.
Therefore, on refund in the 3rd year, following entry will be passed:
₹ ₹
I Deferred Grant A/c Dr. 8 lakhs
Profit & Loss A/c Dr. 8 lakhs
To Bank A/c 16 lakhs
(Being Government grant refunded)
II. Deferred grant account will become Nil. The Fixed assets will continue to be shown in the
books at ₹ 24 lakhs (W.N.2) and deprecation will continue to be charged at ₹ 8 lakhs per
annum for the remaining two years.
Working Notes:
1. Balance of Fixed Assets after two years but before refund (under first alternative)
Fixed assets initially recorded in the books = ₹40 lakhs – ₹16 lakhs = ₹24 lakhs
Depreciation p.a. = (₹24 lakhs – ₹8 lakhs)/4 years = ₹4 lakhs per year
Value of fixed assets after two years but before refund of grant
= ₹24 lakhs – (₹4 lakhs x 2 years) = ₹16 lakhs
2. Balance of Fixed Assets after two years but before refund (under second
alternative)
Fixed assets initially recorded in the books = ₹40 lakhs
300
Depreciation p.a. = (₹40 lakhs – ₹8 lakhs)/4 years = ₹8 lakhs per year

Book value of fixed assets after two years = ₹40 lakhs – (₹8 lakhs x 2 years)
= ₹24 lakhs
Note: Value of fixed assets given above is after refund of government grant.
Question – 16
Supriya Ltd. received a grant of ₹ 2,500 lakhs during the accounting year 20X1-20X2 from
government for welfare activities to be carried on by the company for its employees. The grant
prescribed conditions for its utilisation. However, during the year 20X2-20X3, 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
SOLUTION:
As per 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
unamortised 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.

AS - 16 : Accounting for Borrowing Costs
“Accounting for Borrowing Costs”

Question – 1
U Limited has obtained a term loan of ₹ 620 lacs for a complete renovation and modernization
of its Factory on 1st April, 2020. Plant and Machinery was acquired under the modernization
scheme and installation was completed on 30th April, 2021. An expenditure of ₹ 564 lacs was
incurred on this Plant and Machinery and the balance loan of ₹ 56 lacs has been used for
working capital purposes. The company has paid total interest of ₹ 68.20 lacs during financial
year 2020-2021 on the above loan. The accountant seeks your advice how to account for the
interest paid in the books of accounts. Will your answer be different, if the whole process of
renovation and modernization gets completed by 28th February, 2021?
ANSWER:
Borrowing Cost: As per AS 16 ‘Borrowing Costs’, borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the
acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset should be capitalized as part of the cost of
that asset. Other borrowing costs should be recognized as an expense in the period in which they are
incurred. Borrowing costs should be expensed except where they are directly attributable to acquisition,
construction or production of qualifying asset.
Qualifying Asset: A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time
(ordinarily, a period of twelve months unless a shorter or longer period can be justified on the basis of
the facts and circumstances of the case) to get ready for its intended use or sale.
(i) When construction of asset completed on 30th April, 2021
The treatment for total borrowing cost of ₹ 68.20 lakhs will be as follows:
Purpose Nature Interest to be Interest to be

capitalized charged to profit

302
In this scenario, when the process of renovation gets completed in less than 12 months, the plant
and machinery will not be considered as qualifying assets (until and unless the entity specifically
considers that the asset took substantial period of time for completing their construction) and the
whole of interest will be required to be charged off / expensed off to Profit and loss account.
Question – 2
ABC Limited has started construction of an asset on 1st December, 2020, which continues till
31st March, 2021 (and is expected to go beyond a year). The entity has not taken any specific
borrowings to finance the construction of the asset but has incurred finance costs on its
general borrowings during the construction period. The directly attributable expenditure at
the beginning of the month on this asset was ₹ 10 lakh in December 2020 and ₹ 4 lakh in each
of the months of January to March 2021. At the beginning of the year, the entity had taken Inter
Corporate Deposits of ₹ 20 lakh at 9% rate of interest and had an overdraft of ₹ 4 lakh, which
increased to ₹ 8 lakh on 1st March, 2021. Interest was paid on the overdraft at 10% until 1st
January, 2021 and then the rate was increased to 12%. You are required to calculate the
annual capitalization rate for computation of borrowing cost in accordance with AS 16
'Borrowing Costs'. [MTP Nov 21 (5 Marks)]
ANSWER:
Calculation of capitalization rate on borrowings other than specific borrowings
Nature of Period of Amount of loan Rate of Weighted average

general outstanding (₹) interest p.a. amount of interest
borrowings balance
a b c d = [(b x c) x (a/12)]
9% Debentures 12 months 20,00,000 9% 1,80,000
Bank overdraft 9 months 4,00,000 10% 30,000
2 months 4,00,000 12% 8,000
1 month 8,00,000 12% 8,000
36,00,000 2,26,000
Weighted average cost of borrowings
= {20,00,000 x (12/12)} + {4,00,000 x (11/12)} + {8,00,000 x (1/12)} = 24,33,334
Capitalisation rate = [(Weighted average amount of interest/ Weighted average of general
borrowings) x 100] = [(2,26,000/24,33,334) x 100] = 9.29% p.a.
Question – 3
In May, 2020, Omega Ltd. took a bank loan from a Bank. This loan was to be used specifically
for the construction of a new factory building. The construction was completed in January,
2021 and the building was put to its use immediately thereafter. Interest on the actual amount
used for construction of the building till its completion was ₹ 18 lakhs, whereas the total
interest payable to the bank on the loan for the period till 31st March, 2021 amounted to ₹ 25
lakhs.
303
the company wants to treat ₹ 25 lakhs as part of the cost of factory building and thus capitalize
it on the plea that the loan was specifically taken for the construction of factory building?
Explain the treatment in line with the provisions of AS 16. [RTP Nov 21]
ANSWER:
AS 16 clearly states that capitalization of borrowing costs should cease when substantially all the activities
necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use are completed. Therefore, interest on the
amount that has been used for the construction of the building up to the date of completion (January,
2021) i.e. ₹ 18 lakhs alone can be capitalized. It cannot be extended to ₹ 25 lakhs.
Question – 4
An enterprise has constructed a complex piece of equipment (qualifying asset) that is to be
installed on the production line of a manufacturing plant. The equipment has been constructed
over a period of 15 months. However, on installation, certain calibrations are required to
achieve the desired level of production before it is finally commissioned. This process is
expected to take approximately 2 months during which test runs will be made. Should the
borrowing costs attributable to borrowings pertaining to the 2 months test run period be
capitalized? [RTP May-2022]
Answer:
As per AS 16 Borrowing Costs “Capitalization of borrowing costs should cease when substantially all the
activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are complete”. On
installation of the equipment, an evaluation has to be made to conclude whether substantially all the
activities necessary to prepare the asset are complete. After an equipment has been installed it is usually
tested and adjusted for commercial production before it is finally commissioned. The calibrations and
adjustments required during this period are performed in order to bring the equipment up to the stage
at which it is ready to commence commercial production. Until the asset reaches the stage when it is
ready to support commercial levels of production, it is not appropriate to conclude that substantially all
the activities necessary to prepare the asset are complete. Thus, the borrowing cost incurred during the
normal period of test runs (after the installation) are required to be capitalized.
Question – 5
Should capitalization of borrowing costs be continued when the qualifying asset has been
constructed but marketing activities to sell the asset are still in progress?
[RTP May-2022]
Answer:
As per provisions of AS 16, capitalization of borrowing costs should cease when substantially all the
activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are complete. Further, the
standard also explains that “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 sill 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”. The emphasis in the Standard
is on “to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale” and not the actual activity of sale.
Therefore, where the physical construction of the asset is complete, substantially all the activities
necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are complete. Therefore, in the given
304
case, the borrowing costs pertaining to the period during which the marketing activities to sell the asset
are still in progress should not be capitalized as part of the cost of the asset.
Question – 6
PRM Ltd. obtained a loan from a bank for ₹ 50 lakhs on 30-04-20X1. It was utilised as follows:
Particulars Amount (₹ in lakhs)

Construction of a shed 50
Purchase of a machinery 40
Working Capital 20
Advance for purchase of truck 10
Construction of shed was completed in March 20X2. The machinery was installed on the date
of acquisition. Delivery of truck was not received. Total interest charged by the bank for the
year ending 31.03.20X2 was ₹ 18 lakhs. Show the treatment of interest.
SOLUTION:
Qualifying Asset as per AS 16 = ₹ 50 lakhs (construction of a shed)
Borrowing cost to be capitalised = 18 x 50/120 = ₹ 7.5 lakhs
Interest to be debited to Profit or Loss account = ₹ (18 – 7.5) lakhs = ₹ 10.5 lakhs
Question – 7
X Ltd. began construction of a new building on 1st January, 20X1. It obtained ₹ 1 lakhs special
loan to finance the construction of the building on 1st January, 20X1 at an interest rate of 10%.
The company’s other outstanding two non-specific loans were:
Amount Rate of Interest

₹ 5,00,000 11%
₹ 9,00,000 13%
The expenditures that were made on the building project were as follows:
₹
January 20X1 2,00,000
April 20X1 2,50,000
July 20X1 4,50,000
December 20X1 1,20,000
Building was completed by 31st December 20X1. Following the principles prescribed in AS 16
‘Borrowing Cost,’ calculate the amount of interest to be capitalised and pass on Journal Entry
for capitalising the cost borrowing cost in respect of the building.
305
SOLUTION:
(i) Computation of weighted average accumulated expenses
₹
₹ 2,00,000 x 12/12 = 2,00,000
₹ 2,50,000 x 9/12 = 1,87,500
₹ 4,50,000 x 6/12 = 2,25,000
₹ 1,20,0000 x 1/12 = 10,000
6,22,500
(ii) Calculation of weighted average interest rate other than for specific borrowings
Amount of loan (₹) Rate of Amount of interest (₹)

interest
5,00,000 11% = 55,000
9,00,000 13% = 1,17,000

Weighted average rate of interest = 12.585% (approx.)
1,72,000
(14,00,000 x 100)
(iii) Interest on weighted average accumulated expenses
₹
Specific borrowings (₹ 1,00,000 x 10%) = 10,000
Non-specific borrowing (₹ 5,22,500* x 12.285%) = 64,189
Amount of interest to be capitalised = 74,189
(iv) Total expenses to be capitalised for building

Question – 8
The company has obtained Institutional Term Loan of ₹ 580 lakhs for modernisation and
renovation of its Plant & Machinery. Plant & Machinery acquired under the modernisation
scheme and installation completed on 31st March, 20X2 amounted to ₹ 406 lakhs, ₹ 58 lakhs
has been advanced to suppliers for additional assets and the balance loan of ₹ 116 lakhs has
been utilised for working capital purpose. The Accountant is on a dilemma as to how to
account for the total interest of ₹ 52.20 lakhs incurred during 20X1-20X2 on the entire
Institutional Term Loan of ₹ 580 lakhs.
SOLUTION:
As per 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.
Other borrowing costs should be recognised as an expenses in the period in which they are incurred.
A qualifying asset is an asset that necessary takes a substantial period of time* to get ready for its intended
use or sale.
The treatment for total interest amount of ₹ 52.20 lakhs can be given as:
Purpose Nature Interest to be capitalised Interest to be

charged to Profit and
loss account
Modernisation and Qualifying asset **52.20 x
406
= 36.54
renovation of plant and 580
machinery
Advance to supplies for Qualifying asset **52.20 x
58
= 5.22
additional assets 580
Working Capital Not a qualifying **52.20 x

116
= 10.44
asset 580
41.76 10.44
* A substantial period of time primarily depends on the facts and circumstances of each case. However,
ordinarily, a period of twelve months is considered as substantial period of time unless a shorter or
longer period can be justified on the basis of the facts and circumstances of the case.
** It is assumed in the above solution that the modernisation and renovation of plant and machinery
will take substantial period of time (i.e. more than twelve months). Regarding purchase of additional
assets, the nature of additional assets has also been considered as qualifying assets. Alternatively, the
plant and machinery and additional assets may be assumed to be non-qualifying assets on the basis that
the renovation and installation of additional assets will not take substantial period of time. In that case,
307
the entire amount of interest, ₹ 52.20 lakhs will be recognised as expense in the profit and loss account
for year ended 31st March, 20X2.
Question – 9
Take Ltd. has borrowed ₹ 30 lakhs from State Bank of India during the financial year 20X1-
20X2. The borrowings are used to invest in shares of Give Ltd., a subsidiary company of Take
Ltd., which is implementing a new project, estimated to cost ₹50 lakhs. AS on 31st March, 20X2,
since the said project was not complete, the directors of Take Ltd. resolved to capitalised
interest accruing on borrowings amount to ₹ 4 lakhs and add it to the cost of investments.
Comment.
SOLUTION:
As per AS 13 (Revised) "Accounting for Investments", the cost of investment includes acquisition charges
such as brokerage, fees and duties. In the present case, Take Ltd. has used borrowed funds for purchasing
shares of its subsidiary company Give Ltd. ₹ 4 lakhs interest payable by Take Ltd. to State Bank of India
cannot be called as acquisition charges, therefore, cannot be constituted as cost of investment.
Further, as per para 3 of AS 16 "Borrowing Costs", a qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a
substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale. Since, shares are ready for its intended
use at the time of sale, it cannot be considered as qualifying asset that can enable a company to add the
borrowing cost to investments. Therefore, the directors of Take Ltd. cannot capitalise the borrowing
cost as part of cost of investment. Rather, it has to be charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss for
the year ended 31st March, 20X2.
Question – 10

March, 20X2
Show the treatment of interest by Amazing Construction Ltd.
SOLUTION:
According to AS 16 ‘Borrowing costs’, qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes substantial period
of time to get ready for its intended use.
308
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. Other borrowing costs should be
recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.
