Answer:
1. Adjustment for 400 hats (400 hats has a defect in manufacture, therefore, the cost of these
400 hats is the lower of cost and net realizable value)
Cost $50 each hat.
Net Realizable Value = $40 – (40 * 5%)= $38 each hat.
Therefore, the valuation of hat should be written off

2. Adjustment for 800 skirts


At 31/01/20X3 the skirts were correctly valued at costs incurred to date of $20 per skirt which
was lower than the NRV of $24 each. Therefore, no adjustment required.

1. Original value 300,700

2. Hats a, Cost 400 * $50 (20,000)

b, NRV ($40 * 95%) * 400 15,200

3. Inventory value (1) - (2a) + (2b) 295,900

Guidance:
Step 1: Calculate goods available for sales
Goods available for sales = opening inventory (unit) + total purchased (unit)
Step 2: Calculate total units sold
Step 3: Calculate closing inventory
Closing inventory (unit) = opening inventory units + total units purchased - total units sold
Step 4: Identify FIFO closing inventory.
With FIFO method, closing inventory (units) will include the most recently purchased items

Answer:
Step 1: Calculate goods available for sales
Goods available for sales = opening inventory (unit) + total purchased (unit)
Opening inventory (unit) = 700 = 700 (units)
Total purchased (unit) = 500 (1 Jul X2) + 300 (1 Feb X3) = 800 (units)
→ Goods available for sales (unit) = 700 + 800 = 1,500 (units)

Step 2: Calculate total units sold


Total units sold = 400 (1 Nov X2) + 250 (15 Apr X3) = 650 (units)

Step 3: Calculate closing inventory


Closing inventory (unit) = goods available for sales – total units sold = 1,500 – 650 = 850 (units)

Step 4: Identify FIFO closing inventory.


With FIFO method, closing inventory (units) will include the most recently purchased item.
Closing inventory including:
300 engines (at $230 each) purchased on 1 February X2 300 x $230 $69,000
500 engines (at $220 each) purchased on 1 July X3 500 x $220 $110,000
50 engines (at $190 each) on 1 May X2 50 x $190 $9,500
Closing inventory $188,500

Question 2: Tangible non – current asset (Revaluation surplus)

Nam Son, a construction joint stock company, purchased a building on 30/06/20X8 for
$1,500,000. At acquisition, the useful life of the building was 50 years. Depreciation is
calculated on the straight – line basis. 15 years later, on 30/06/20Z3 when the carrying
amount of the building was $1,050,000, the building was revalued to $1,575,000. Pooh Co has
a policy of transferring the excess depreciation on revaluation from the revaluation surplus
to retained earnings.

Assuming no further revaluations take place, what is the balance on the revaluation at
30/06/20Z4?

Answer:
Step 1: Calculate Carrying amount at the revaluation date
Carrying amount = Cost – Accumulated depreciation
Carrying amount = $1,050,000

Step 2: Calculate the revaluation surplus


The revaluation surplus = Gain on the revaluation
Carrying amount < Revalued amount → There is gain on the revaluation
Revalued amount = $1,575,000
Carrying amount = $1,050,000
→ Gain on the revaluation = $1,575,000 - $1,050,000 = $525,000
The revaluation surplus = $525,000

Step 3: Calculate the excess depreciation


The excess depreciation = The difference between the new depreciation and the old
depreciation.
The old depreciation = $1,500,000/50 years = $30,000
The new depreciation = $1,575,000/35 years = $45,000
→ The excess depreciation = $45,000 - $30,000 = $15,000

Step 4: Calculate the balance on the revaluation surplus


The balance on RS = The revaluation surplus (Step 2) – The excess depreciation (Step 3)
= $525,000 - $15,000 = $510,000.

Question 3:
A company purchased an asset on 1 January 20X3 at a cost of $1,000,000. It is depreciated
over 50 years by the straight line method (nil residual value), with a proportionate charge for
depreciation in the year of acquisition and the year of disposal. At 31 December 20X4 the
asset was re-valued to $1,200,000. There was no change in the expected useful life of the
asset.
The asset was sold on 30 June 20X5 for $1,195,000.
What profit or loss on disposal of the asset will be reported in the statement of profit or loss
of the company for the year ended 31 December 20X5?

Answer:
Step 1: Determine the Sale/Disposal price/Proceeds
Sale/ Disposal price/Proceeds $1,195,000

Step 2: Determine the carrying value of the asset


New valuation (At 1/1/20X5) $1,200,000
Accumulate Depreciation to 30/6/20X5: $12,500
(1,200,000/48 * 6/12 = 12,500)
Carrying amount $1,187,500

Step 3:Determine the profit/loss on disposal


Sale/ Disposal price $1,195,000
Carrying amount $1,187,500
Profit on disposal $7,500

Note: The balance on the revaluation surplus at 30 June will be transferred to realised profits
(retained profits reserve), but this will not be reported as profit in the statement of profit or
loss

According to IAS 38 Intangible assets, what amount should be disclosed as an intangible


asset in the statement of financial position for the year end 31/12/20X7?

Answer:
According to IAS 38:
Step1: Separate Research Cost and Development Cost

Research is original and planned investigation undertaken with the prospect of gaining
new scientific or technical knowledge and understanding. Research costs should be
recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. They should not be
recognised as an asset in a later period.

In the above question, the research expenditure is $95,000, will not be recorded as
Intangible non – current asset.

Development is the application of research findings or other knowledge to a plan or design


for the production of new or substantially improved materials, devices, products,
processes, systems or services prior to the commencement of commercial production or
use. Development expenditure must be recognised as an intangible asset if, and only if,
the business can demonstrate that all of the criteria in IAS 38 have been met (PIRATE)

In the above question, the development cost is $65,000 from project B (eligible for
capitalization)

Step 2: Determined the Tangible non- current asset amount

In the above question, with the account Tangible non – current asset, the opening balance
is $190,000, with the amortization is $20,000. During the period, the bonus development
expenditure is $65,000 from project B (eligible for capitalization); the research
expenditure is $95,000, will not be recorded as Intangible non – current asset.

Development costs

B/f 190,000 Amortization 20,000
Addition on project B 65,000 C/f 235,000

Tangible non- current asset amount at 31/12/20X7: $235,000

Deferred income (income received in advance) should be deferred to the following period.
Therefore, we can:
• Recognize the deferred income of the previous period; and
• Eliminate the deferred income of recent period.

Accrued income (income received in arrears) still is recognized as income generated in the
recent period. Therefore, we can:
• Recognize the deferred income of the recent period; and
• Eliminate the deferred income of the next period or previous period.

Old annual rent New annual rent


(3 months) (12 months) Prepayment
(3 months)

1/10/X5 31/12/X5 31/12/X6 31/3/X7

$90,000 for rent, covering the period of 18 months, including 03 months of 20X5, full year of
20X6 and 03 months of 20X7.

Step 2: Calculate rental expense (Statement of profit or loss)

Answer:
• Rent received in advance, for example in 31/12/20X1, means that House4rent only
receives in advance, this money is not an expense incurred in 20X1 (It will be paid for
the rent of 20X2).
Therefore, the opening rent received in advance is in the Credit column of Rental
income accounts

• Rent owing to tenants is inverse, for example in 31/12/20X1, this money is charged for
the rent expenses incurred in 20X1, but the customer still does not pay.
Therefore, the opening rent owning by tenants is in the Debit column of Rental income
accounts

Dạng 1: Tính chi phí cho các khoản phải thu (Receivables expenses)
Question 1:
At 31 December 20X2 a company's receivables totalled $400,000 and an allowance for
receivables of $50,000 had been brought forward from the year ended 31 December 20X1. It
was decided to write off debts totalling $38,000. The allowance for receivables was to be
adjusted to the equivalent of 10% of the receivables.
What charge for receivables expense should appear in the company's statement of profit or
loss for the year ended 31 December 20X2?

Guidance:
The charge to the statement of profit or loss is irrecoverable debts expense. There are some
entries you should remember:
(i) The entry made when we write off receivables as irrecoverable debts:
DR: Irrecoverable debts expense (SOPL)
CR: Trade receivables (SOFP)
(ii) The entry made when we receive money from a written off irrecoverable debts:
DR: Cash (SOPL)
CR: Irrecoverable debts expense (SOPL)
(iii) The entry when there is an increase in allowance for receivables:
DR: Irrecoverable debts expense (SOPL)

Answer:
There are 2 transactions needed to adjust:
(1) The company wants to write off a receivables of $38,000 as irrecoverable debt.
The double entry is:
DR: Irrecoverable debts expense (SOPL) $38,000
CR: Trade receivables (SOFP) $38,000

(2) The company wants to make a 10% allowance for receivable


Closing balance of receivables to make allowances = $400,000-$38,000 = $362,000
The allowance for receivables made for the year end= $362,000 * 10%=$36,200
→ There is a decrease in allowance for receivables of $13,800 ($50,000 - $36,200), the
double entry is:
DR: Allowance for receivables (SOFP) $13,800
CR: Irrecoverable debts expense (SOPL) $13,800

Irrecoverable debt expense (1) 38,000
Decrease in allowance 13,800

38,000 38,000

→ The irrecoverable debts expense charge to SOPL = $24,200

Dạng 2: Phân biệt Specific allowance và General allowance


Question 2: Allowance for receivables

At 31/12/20X7, SAPP’s trade receivables totaled $900,000. SAPP knew that Ms. Hoa who is
involved in a litigation and potentially bankrupt, and SAPP decided to make the allowance
70% for her debts, it originally valued $10,000.

According to SAPP’s policy, it will adjust the allowance for receivables to the equivalent of 5%
of the receivables. At that date, Ms. Hien, whose debt were previously written off last year,
paid $15,000.

What figures will be appeared in the statement of financial position (SOFP) for trade
receivables (after deducting the allowance) and in the financial statement of profit or loss
(SOPL) for receivables expense?

Answer:
The allowance of bad debts is divided to Specific Allowance and General Allowance.
Ms. Hoa’s debts is an example of specific allowance, when it is applied for only Ms. Hoa.
And the 5% of the receivables above is made as the General allowance for the rest of
Receivables after deducting the Specific Allowance.

$
Total receivables 900,000
Specific allowance (=10,000 * 70%) (7,000)
893,000
General allowance (=893,000 * 5%) (44,650)
Net receivable in the SOFP 848,350

Both the Specific and General Allowance will be recorded as:


DR Irrecoverable debts expense (SOPL)
CR Receivables account (SOFP)
And when a customer whose debts were previously written off and subsequently paid in
this period, the company will be recorded:

DR Cash account
