46) What is the unrealized gains or loss to be presented in the Statement of Profit or Loss?
Answer:
Answer:
Note! If the question is, “What is the unrealized gains or loss in the Statement of Comprehensive Income?”,
combine whatever amount presented in the statement of profit or loss and the amount presented in the
statement of other comprehensive income. See illustration:
48) What is the unrealized gains or loss to be presented in the Statement of Financial Position?
Answer:
Alternative computation for unrealized gains or losses, (e.g., computing the unrealized gain)
Notes!
Note 1 − as alternative method, unrealized gains and losses can be squeezed from the investment account.
Note 2 – unrealized gain or loss – profit or loss (PL) has a beginning balance of zero (nominal account, previous
balance was closed to income summary).
Note 3 – unrealized gain or loss – other comprehensive income (OCI) has a beginning equal to the ending
balance of the previous period (real account, carried forward). The increase or decrease of which is presented in
the statement of OCI, while the cumulative (ending) balance is presented in the balance sheet & changes in
equity.
49) What is the gain or loss on sale of investment?
Answer:
(1) Updating the fair value at the date of sale. The investment sold should be updated to its fair value at the
date of sale. The fair value at the date of sale is equal to the selling price of the shares sold. Record the
unrealized gains or loss – OCI to update the fair value.
(2) Derecognition of Investment. Record the sale transaction by: Debit the cash received equal to the selling
price, then credit the investment account which is equal to the carrying value of the shares sold. Note that the
carrying value of the investment is share is now equal to the selling price because it was updated in the first
entry.
(3) Transfer of OCI to Retained Earnings. The cumulative amount in OCI of the investment in shares sold will
transferred to the retained earnings.
The possible question here, “How much is the amounted transferred to retained earnings"?
Answer:
Answer:
Liquidating Dividend. You are receiving what you invested, not the earnings of your investment. Journal Entry:
Dr. Cash X
Cr. Investment X
First, assuming that the shares dividend was received. By assuming this, the number of shares will increase and
the value of each shares will decrease.
Second, assuming that the shares that was assumed received will be sold at the selling price equal to the cash
dividend actually received (replacement dividend).
Third, the company will recognize gain or loss on the assumed sale as illustrated below:

Topic 21: Impairment of Asset
Expected question(s):
1. What is the amount of impairment loss?
2. What is the carrying amount of the PPE right after impairment?
3. What is the new depreciation expense after recording impairment?
4. What is the amount of reversal of impairment loss?
Answer: Subsequently, property, plant and equipment (PPE) is measured either under cost model or
revaluation model. Under cost model, PPE carried at:
Revaluation Model
Annual net cash inflow x PVF of annuity = PV of annual net cash flow X
Add: Residual value x PV of 1 = PV of residual value X
Value in use X
Cost X
Less: Accumulated depreciation (annual depreciation x age) X
Carrying amount at the date of impairment X
Answer:
Alternative solution:
Answer:
Answer:
Note! The recoverable amount at the date of impairment is not the recoverable amount at the date of reversal.
Answer: Under cost model, the company can not increase the value of their PPE to its fair value (unless there
was a previous impairment). While under revaluation model, the company can increase the value of their PPE
to its fair value, such increase is referred as revaluation surplus (one of the sever OCIs).
Revaluation Model
PPE was PPE was not PPE was PPE was not
impaired
before
Record as both
Gain on reversal & Revaluation
Revaluation Surplus
Step 1: Compute the depreciated replacement cost or the sound value or the fair value.
Note! If what is given in the problem is FAIR VALUE OR SOUND VALUE, there is no need to compute for the
depreciated replacement cost. The fair value or sound value will be your depreciated replacement cost. If what
is given in the problem is REPLACEMENT COST, there is a need to compute the depreciated replacement cost.
Step 4: Compute the initial revaluation, after tax (IF WITH TAX RATE GIVEN).
Note! All OCI items are presented in the statement of comprehensive income, after tax. If there is no tax rate
given, ignore step 4.
81) What is the balance of revaluation surplus subsequent to the date of revaluation?
Answer:
Initial revaluation
= Annual transfer
Remaining life Asset not sold Asset was sold
Annual transfer X
Times: Years lapsed since revaluation X No amount Whole amount
Cumulative amount transferred X is transferred is transferred
Step 2: Compute the balance (REMAINING) of the revaluation surplus at year end?
82) What is the NEW depreciation expense after recording the revaluation?
Answer: When the asset is revalued, there will be a change in estimate. Thus the new depreciation should be
computed.
83) What is the NEW depreciation expense after recording the revaluation?
Answer: The company can chose between proportional method or elimination method in recording the
revaluation surplus:
Proportional method:
Step 2: Journalize
Elimination method:
Answer: The company should zero out the remaining revaluation surplus first before recording any impairment.

Topic 26: Depletion
Expected question(s):
1. What is the amount of depletion during the year?
2. What is the amount of depletion included in the cost of goods sold (a.k.a. depletion expense)?
3. What is the carrying amount of the wasting asset as of year end?
4. What is the NEW depletion in the event of change in estimate?
5. What is the depreciation expense for the year of the PPE used in mining activity?
6. What is the maximum amount of dividend that a mining company can declare?
Answer: Depletion is the increase in value of the nature acquired (also referred as the wasting asset) due to
extraction of natural resources from it. The depletion is inventoriable (e.g., same treatment as depreciation of
factory equipment).
Answer: Depletion is initially recorded as inventory and will be expensed only when sold (as of part of cost of
goods sold).
Previous depletion rate x Number of units sold coming from previous year = X
Add: NEW depletion rate x Number of units sold coming from present year = X
Depletion expense X
99) What is the carrying amount of the wasting asset as of year end?
Answer: Development cost is not only incurred before the start of production process (extraction), but can also
be incurred during the process of extraction along the way.
Answer:
Answer: The true question here is, “what method of depreciation should be used”?
Then you can refer to question 72 as a guide in computing the depreciation.
Depreciation method
102) What is the maximum amount of dividend that a wasting asset company can declare?
Answer:
*Capital liquidated. The excess of dividend declared from the un-appropriated retained earnings.
103) What is the amount of impairment loss on the date of reclassification to NCA held for sale?
Answer:
Step 1: Determine the initial measurement of the NCA held for sale.
Carrying amount of the asset before reclassified as NCA held for sale X
VS. Initial measurement (step 1) X
Impairment loss X
Note! Once the asset is reclassified as NCA held for sale, no more depreciation will be recognized.
104) What is the carrying amount of NCA held for sale at year end?
Answer:
Note! The fair value less cost to sell at the reclassification date is not the same as the fair value less cost to sell
at year – end.
105) What is the amount of impairment or reversal of impairment of NCA held for sale at year-end?
Answer:
Note!
1) You can solve for either impairment loss or reversal of impairment by squeezing the amount in the T-
account of NCA held for sale. Plot the ending balance (carrying amount) and the initial measurement,
then you can not squeeze for the answer.
2) Be sensitive with the question, impairment loss may happen in two periods, (1) is on the reclassification
date and; (2) at year end. If the problem is asking for the “total impairment for the year”, solve as follow:
Answer:
Note!
107) What is the initial measurement of PPE after reclassification back from NCA held for sale?
Answer:
Step 1: Compute the carrying amount of the PPE “AS IF IT WAS NEVER CLASSIFIED AS NCA HELD FOR
SALE AND THE DEPRECIATION WILL CONTINUE”.
Recoverable amount at the date of reclassification back (FVCOD VS. VUI, HIGHER) X
VS. Carrying amount, AS IF X
Initial measurement of the reclassified back PPE X

Not integral part of the machine – included as intangible asset.
2) Website rule:
Solely for advertisement and promotion – excluded from intangible asset (treated as expense).
Not solely for advertisement and promotion – included as intangible asset.
Answer: To answer this question, one must know which expenditures are treated as R & D expense and which
are not.
(a) Material, labor and overhead used in conducting research & development
(b) Cost of activities aim to obtain new knowledge
(c) Cost of developing, designing, producing and testing prototype Included as research
(d) Cost of searching and testing alternatives and development
(e) Cost of designing tools, jigs and molds Expense
(f) Depreciation of PPE used in research and development with alternative use
(g) Whole of cost PPE used in research and development without alternative use
Answer: This will depend on how the intangible asset was acquired. If purchased, the accounting rule is the
same as the acquisition rule for PPE (refer to topic 16). The initial measurement will be different if self
constructed or developed.

Answer: The total selling price (issue price) of a compound financial instrument is composed of selling price of
the bonds payable and selling price of the equity instrument (share warrants or conversion option). Issue price
should be allocated using residual method.
From the issue price, first to allocate is the value assigned to the bonds. The fair value of the bonds is the
amount allocated to the bonds and whatever is the residual, it will be allocated to the equity instrument See
illustration below:
Answer: The share warrants is an instrument giving the holder a privilege to purchase a share a fixed price.
Step 1: Compute the total exercise price (purchase price of shares using the warrants).
Exercise price of shares using each warrants (assume one is to one, if silent) X
Times: Number of share warrants exercised X
Cash received from selling shares X
Step 2: Compute the total consideration received from selling the shares.
Step 3: Compute the share premium arise from exercise of share warrants.
134) What is the amount credited to share premium when the conversion options were exercised?
Answer: The conversion option is a right given to the holder to convert their right to collect cash to right to
receive shares of the company.
Step 1: Compute the carrying amount (amortized cost) of the bonds payable at the time of conversion.
Step 2: Compute the total consideration received from converting the bonds.
Step 3: Compute the share premium from conversion (excess of consideration received from given up).
Total consideration X
Less: Total par value of shares issue (par value per share x number of shares issued) X
Share premium − ordinary shares X
Answer: The fair value of the notes minus any transaction cost. Usually, no transaction cost is incurred from

Answer: If the note is a term note (principal is payable one time), the whole NP will be classified as current if the
principal is payable within one year. If the principal will be paid beyond one year, the whole NP will be classified as
non current asset.
If the note is a serial note, it is both current and non current and can be computed as follows:
Payment of face and interest w/ one year X Carrying amount of NP at year end X

depend on the acceptable framework used.
IFRS based.
Fair value (assumed selling price) of non-cash asset used to settle debt X
Less: Carrying amount of the non-cash asset (inventory, PPE, intangible, etc.) X
Gain or loss disposal of non-cash asset
Assumption 2: The proceeds from assumed sale will be used to settle the debt.
142) What is the gain or loss from extinguishment of debt through equity swap?
143) What is the share premium arise from equity swap transaction?
Answer: The formula to compute the gain or loss and share premium will depend on the given information. Use
the level of priority below:
Priority Amount of gain or loss on extinguishment Share premium arise from equity swap
Carrying amount of debts X Fair value of the debt (ref. ques. 18) X
Second Less: Fair value of the debt (ref. ques.18) X Less: Par value of shares issued X
Gain or loss on extinguishment X Share premium X
Answer: If the modification is substantial – the old liability is extinguish and new liability arises. If this is the
case, the company should recognize gain or loss on extinguishment.
However, is the modification is not substantial – the old liability is not extinguish but will remain. If this is the
case, no gain or loss on modification is recognize, but the company should record gain or loss on modification
(not extinguishment). See illustration below:
145) What is the new interest expense after the modification of terms?
Answer:
Answer: The usual question in this topic-07 is the ending balance of equity accounts. To answer these
question, one must know how to journalize share transactions and subsequently post in a ledger (T-account or
column) and compute the ending balance.
Since posting and footing is very easy, this topic will focus on journalizing share transaction. The following
transaction affects the equity accounts of the company:
a) Authorization
b) Subscription
c) Issuance of shares
d) Reacquisition of shares
e) Reissuance of shares
f) Retirement of shares
g) Donation from shareholders
h) Conversion of preference shares
i) Share split
j) Conversion of convertible bonds (discussed in Topic 04: Compound Instrument)
k) Exercise of share warrants attached on a bonds (discussed in Topic 04: Compound Instrument)
l) Exercise of share options (discussed in Topic 09: Share Based Payments)
(a) Authorization.
(1) Memo Entry Method − The most common method in accounting for authorization. In method, one
principal account will be used namely: “Share Capital” and no contra account is made. No entry is
made on Authorization transaction.
(2) Journal Entry Method − In this method, one principal account and one contra-account is made. The
principal account “Authorized Share Capital” will remain the same all throughout, while the contra-
account “Unissued Share Capital” will decrease each time there is an issuance of share.
Dr. Unissued Share Capital (authorized number of shares x par value per share) 1,000
Cr. Authorized Share Capital (authorized number of shares x par value per share) 1,000
Principal Account : Share Capital 100 Principal Account : Authorized Share Cap 1,000
Contra Account : -- 0 Contra Account : Unissued Share Cap (900)
Carrying Amount 100 Carrying Amount 100
(b) Subscription.
It is not possible to issue shares if the full consideration is not yet received. Since there is a limited number of
shares that the company can sold (authorized shares), a potential investor who do not yet have the means to pay
the full consideration can “reserve” the shares.

Share Premium – Forfeited Subscription (if not refundable) X
(c) Issuance.
C.1 Assigning Value to the Consideration Received − If the investor can pay in full immediately there is no
need to subscribed for the shares first, it can be issued already. Shares can be sold in exchange for the
following:
a) Cash
b) Non-cash
c) Services
d) Extinguishment of debt (Discussed in Topic 06: Debt Restructuring)
Dr. X
X
Share Premium – Excess of Par X
C.2 Share Issuance Cost − Cost incurred in connection with selling or issuing of shares (e.g., commission to
brokers, finders fee, cost of printing share certificates, registrations, filing fees with SEC, legal fees, CPA fees,
underwriting fees, documentary stamp tax, etc.)
Share Issuance Cost
Treated as Expense
C.3 Lump-sum Issuance − Issuance of multiple class of shares (i.e., ordinary and preference) or two different
kinds of investment (i.e., shares and bonds) in exchange for a single consideration.
Shares
The Company
Cash
Relative FV method
Residual Value method
Number of ordinary shares issue x Fair value per share = Total fair value of O.S.
Number of preference shares issue x Fair value per share = Total fair value of P.S.
Total fair value of all instrument = Total fair value of all shares
(d) Reacquisition.
Reacquiring your own shares that was previously issued. Shares reacquired is referred as treasury shares (TS).
Treasury shares is a contra-equity account (normal balance is debit).
The measurement of the treasury shares is cost, the value of consideration given up to acquire the treasury
shares. The cost is:
(e) Reissuance.
Selling the same share for the second time is called reissuance. Always be careful in defining the transaction
whether issuance (selling shares for the first time, selling unissued shares) or reissuance (selling shares from
treasury shares). There are two (2) issue here:
a) Value of treasury shares sold − The value of the treasury shares is measured at cost. The problem
arises when there is a multiple reacquisition of shares with different cost. Follow the following level of
priority when assigning value to the treasury shares:
1. Specific identification – the problem will state from what reacquisition the treasury shares will be
sold.
2. First in, first out – if the problem is silent as to method in assigning value, FIFO should be used. The
treasury shares sold will be coming from the earliest acquisition.
3. Weighted average – the value of all treasury shares is equal. The equal value of each shares can be
computed by:
Treasury shares available for sale in Peso
= Value of EACH treasury shares
Treasury shares available for sale in Units
b) Gain or loss from sale of treasury shares − There will a gain if the treasury shares is sold above its
value (refer to first issue for the value). While a loss if sold below its value (it can be sold below par
value). After debiting the consideration received and crediting the value of treasury shares, it is down to
the gain or loss:
If GAIN, If LOSS,
Debited to:
Share Premium – Treasury Shares First – Share Premium – Treasury Shares, if any
Second – Retained Earnings
If GAIN, If GAIN,
Dr. Cash (at selling price) X Dr. Cash (at selling price) X
Treasury Shares X Dr. SP – Treasury Shares X
SP – Treasury Shares X Dr. Retained Earnings X
Cr. Treasury Shares X
(f) Retirement.
The corporation code requires the restriction (appropriation) of retained earnings equal to the amount of treasury
shares. Companies can retire their treasury shares so they can declare dividends without restriction.
One disadvantage of retirement though is that the company will incur new share issuance cost when issuing
unissued shares instead of issuing treasury shares. To journalize, we follow four (4) steps:
Step 2: Derecognize the Share Premium – Excess of Par (SP from original issuance).
If GAIN, If GAIN,
(g) Donation.
The company received either: (1) cash; (2) non-cash; (3) service or (4) company’s own shares for free. The The
journal entry from receiving the following donation would include a credit to:
(1) Cash
(3) Service
If the preference share is converted into ordinary shares, the preference returned will be retired, thus the step-
by-step procedure for retirement will apply. Then the ordinary shares will be issued, the issuance rule will apply.
Step 1: Derecognize the Preference Share (PS) – Share Capital.
Number of PS retired X
Times: Par value of each shares X
PS Share Capital to derecognize (debited) X
Step 2: Derecognize the Share Premium – Preference Shares (SP from original issuance).
If GAIN, If LOSS,
Equity account will remain the same after share split, thus, no journal entry is made for share split transaction. In
the memorandum, the number of shares (unissued, outstanding, treasury) increases, while the par value of
unissued and outstanding shares decreases and the cost per treasury shares also decreases.
Number of shares issued (in the hands of the company and shareholders) X
Less: Number of shares reacquired (in the hands of the company) X
Number of shares outstanding (in the hands of the shareholders) X
Topic 08: Retained Earnings
Expected question(s):
1. What is the amount of cash dividend to be deducted from retained earnings?
2. What is the amount of cash dividends allocated to ordinary shareholders and preference shareholders?
3. What is the amount of equity accounts (share capital, share premium & retained earning) after share dividends?
4. What is the correct journal entry for property dividends?
5. What is the amount of appropriated retained earnings?
6. What is the ending equity accounts after quasi-reorganization?
150) What is the amount of cash dividend to be deducted from retained earnings?
Answer: Shares that are outstanding and subscribed are entitled to received dividends.
Step 2: Compute the total dividends payable and amount deducted to retained earnings.
151) What amount of cash dividends is allocated to ordinary shareholders and to preference shareholders?
Answer: The allocation will depend on the classification of the preference shares (PS) as to:
Years in-arrears − number of years from the last time the company did not declare any dividends up to the year
the company declared a dividends (include the current year).
c) Non cumulative, fully participating
Total par of OS
Remaining dividend (Step 4) x = Share of PS from the remaining
Total par of PS + OS
Total par of PS
Remaining dividend (Step 4) x = Share of PS from the remaining
Total par of PS + OS
Dividend rate (DR) − borrow the dividend rate of the lowest participating preference share.
152) What amount of equity accounts (share capital, share premium & retained earnings) after share
dividends?
Answer: The correct entry for the share dividend should be carefully understand because three (3) equity
accounts might be affected by this transaction. First question to ask yourself is, “How much should be
deducted from retained earnings?”
Share Dividend
Initially measure dividends payable at fair value at the Subsequently, update dividends payable at fair value at Before settlement, the Property Dividends Payable

Answer:
Answer:
Answer:
Answer: In this topic, the transaction is the employees are to received share options as a bonus (in addition to
salaries) in exchange for their services rendered. Since the services received has no future benefit it will be
recorded as an expense. We have two (2) things to consider:
Share Options will be given out Share Appreciation Rights will be given out
First Priority: Fair Value of the Share Options at First Priority: Fair Value of the SARs at year

premium – share option is equal to the cumulative amount of compensation expense recorded from the date of
the agreement up to the date of the question.
Alternative way:
Year 1
Fair value or intrinsic value options (refer to the rule above) X
Times: New estimated number of options per employee X
Times: New estimated number of employees expected to get options at the end X
Total measurement of expense after condition X
Times: Ratio of years completed over the total condition year (e.g., 1/3, 2/3, 3/3) X/X
Share premium − share option (cumulative compensation expense) X
162) What is the share premium credited from the exercise of share options?
Answer: The share premium recognized from the exercise of share option is equal to amount of gain (excess of
consideration received from what is given out).
Exercise price of the share options (cash received from sale of shares) X
Add: Fair value / intrinsic value of share options returned upon exercise X
Total consideration received X
Less: Par value of shares sold X
Share premium − excess of par (gain) X
163) What is the amount of salaries expense for the year?
Answer: The computation of salaries expense from SARs is almost the same as the computation for salaries
expense for share options. Always use the NEW estimate on the time the company will record salaries
expense (year end).
Year 1 Year 2
Fair value or intrinsic value of SARs (refer to the rule above) X X
Times: New estimated number of SARs per employee X X
Times: New estimated number of employees expected to get SARs at the end X X
Total measurement of expense after condition X X
Times: Ratio of years completed over the total condition year (e.g., 1/3, 2/3, 3/3) X/X X/X
Cumulative amount of compensation expense X X
Less: Cumulative amount of compensation expense recorded in previous period X X
Compensation expense for this period X X
Answer: The computation of salaries payable depend on whether there are no SARs were exercised yet or there
were SARs already exercised.

TOPlC 02 − BOOK VALUE PER SHARE
Expected question(s):
1. What is the book value per ordinary shares?
2. What is the book value per preference shares?
Answer: Book value is being computed to know what is the amount of cash that each one piece of share will
received upon liquidation of the business.
We have three (3) scenarios here in which we will depend our computations of book value, namely:
Note! Since it is assumed that the company will be liquidated, it is also assumed that before liquidation all
subscription will be paid (within 12 months), thus, subscription will be considered as current asset instead of
contra equity. Subscription receivable is not deducted for book value per share purposes.
Step 2: Compute the number of shares entitled to received dividends (they are also the one who will received
their investment upon liquidation).
Preference share
Preference share
Answer: Basic earnings per share is the amount of income of one piece of ordinary share per year. Earnings
per share is not applicable to preference share since preference share has already fixed income (basic dividend).
Share dividends and share splits will have an effect to all share transactions whether issuance or
reacquisition.
Note! The numerator of the weight will be the number of months from the transaction date up to December 31.
Answer: Diluted earnings per share is the lowest possible earnings per share assuming the “potential
shareholders” exercised their right to become a shareholder through the use of “diluter” instrument. Diluter
instrument are those instrument giving the holder the right to receive ordinary shares, namely:
The computation of diluted earnings per share will depend on which diluter is present. In computing the DEPS
you will have to assume that the right to become ordinary shareholder was exercised (convertible PS was
converted, convertible bonds was converted, share options was used to purchase ordinary shares) immediately
upon issuance of the diluter instrument.
Net lncome
= Diluted Earnings Per Share
?
Since it is assumed that the preference share was converted, the preference shares will retired and there will be
no more preference shares, therefore no preference share dividend will be given out and all the net income will
be attributable to ordinary shareholders.
?
= Diluted Earnings Per Share
WAOO + Weighted average potential ordinary
Net Income
= Diluted Earnings Per Share
WAOO + Weighted average potential ordinary
b) Convertible bonds
Since it is assumed that the convertible bonds were converted. Was once the bonds is converted it is extinguish
and the company will no longer incur interest expense, so we have to eliminate interest expense recorded. But
since the interest expense was deducted to the net income, it should be added back.
Since the net income in the numerator is net of tax, the interest income should be added back also net of tax.
?
= Diluted Earnings Per Share
WAOO + Weighted average potential ordinary
c) Share options
The numerator of the fraction is not modified, the same as the numerator in the basic EPS.
Potential ordinary shares (shares that will be issued if options were exercised) X
Less: Assumed treasury shares (shares reacquired using the process from assumed sale) X
Incremental shares X
Times: Weight (same rule in convertible preference share and bonds) x/12
Weighted incremental shares X
