Depreciation has been calculated at the given depreciation rate of 10% on WDV basis.
17. (a) Purpose of the Framework: The framework sets out the concepts underlying the preparation and presentation of general-purpose financial statements prepared by enterprises for external users. The main purpose of the framework is:
(a) To assist enterprises in preparation of their financial statements in compliance with the accounting standards and in dealing with the topics not yet covered by any accounting standard.
(b) To assist ASB in its task of development and review of accounting standards.
(c) To assist ASB in promoting harmonisation of regulations, accounting standards
and procedures relating to the preparation and presentation of financial statements by providing a basis for reducing the number of alternative accounting treatments permitted by accounting standards.
(d) To assist auditors in forming an opinion as to whether financial statements conform to the accounting standards.
(e) To assist the users in interpretation of financial statements.
Status and Scope of the Framework: The framework applies to general-purpose financial statements usually prepared annually for external users, by all commercial, industrial and business enterprises, whether in public or private sector. The special purpose financial reports, for example prospectuses and computations prepared for tax purposes are outside the scope of the framework. Nevertheless, the framework may be applied in preparation of such reports, to the extent not inconsistent with their requirements.
Nothing in the framework overrides any specific Accounting Standard. In case of conflict between an accounting standard and the framework, the requirements of the Accounting Standard will prevail over those of the framework.
(b) The qualitative characteristics are attributes that improve the usefulness of information provided in financial statements. The framework suggests that the financial statements should observe and maintain the following four qualitative characteristics as far as possible within limits of reasonable cost/ benefit.
1. Understandability: The financial statements should present information in a manner as to be readily understandable by the users with reasonable knowledge of business and economic activities. It is not right to think that more one discloses better it is. A mass of irrelevant information creates confusion and can be even more harmful than non-disclosure. No relevant information can be however withheld on the grounds of complexity.
2. Relevance: The financial statements should contain relevant information only. Information, which is likely to influence the economic decisions by the users, is said to be relevant. Such information may help the users to evaluate past, present or future events or may help in confirming or correcting past evaluations. The relevance of a piece of information should be judged by its materiality. A piece of information is said to be material if its omission or misstatement can influence economic decisions of a user.
3. Reliability: To be useful, the information must be reliable; that is to say, they must be free from material error and bias. The information provided are not likely to be reliable unless:
(a) Transactions and events reported are faithfully represented.
(b) Transactions and events are reported in terms of their substance and economic reality not merely on the basis of their legal form. This principle is called the principle of 'substance over form'.
(c) The reporting of transactions and events are neutral, i.e. free from bias.
(d) Prudence is exercised in reporting uncertain outcome of transactions or events.
4. Comparability: Comparison of financial statements is one of the most frequently used and most effective tools of financial analysis. The financial statements should permit both inter-firm and intra-firm comparison. One essential requirement of comparability is disclosure of financial effect of change in accounting policies.
5. True and Fair View: Financial statements are required to show a true and fair view of the performance, financial position and cash flows of an enterprise. The conceptual framework does not deal directly with this concept of true and fair view, yet the application of the principal qualitative characteristics and of appropriate accounting standards normally results in financial statements portraying true and fair view of information about an enterprise.

(b) If some partner is having debit balance in his capital account and is not insolvent, then he cannot be called upon to bear the loss on account of the insolvency of the other partner.
Hence, Y need not bear the loss due to insolvency of partner X.
(c) Nagpur branch must include the inventory in its books as goods in transit.
The following journal entry must be made by the branch:
Goods in transit A/c Dr. 50,000
To Head office A/c 50,000
[Being Goods sent by Head office is still in transit on the closing date].
(d) Yes, one of the characteristics of financial statements is neutrality. To be reliable, the information contained in financial statement must be neutral, that is free from bias. Financial Statements are not neutral if by the selection or presentation of information, they influence the making of a decision or judgement in order to achieve a pre-determined result or outcome. Financial statements are said to depict the true and fair view of the business of the organization by virtue of neutrality.

19. (a) To the extent that funds are borrowed specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset, the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation on that asset should be determined as the actual borrowing costs incurred on that borrowing during the period less any income on the temporary investment of those borrowings.
To the extent that funds are borrowed generally and used for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset, the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation
should be determined by applying a capitalisation rate to the expenditure on that asset. The capitalization rate should be the weighted average of the borrowing costs applicable to the borrowings of the enterprise that are outstanding during the period, other than borrowings made specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset. The amount of borrowing costs capitalized during a period should not exceed the amount of borrowing costs incurred during that period.
(b) According to AS 4, paras 13,14 and 15
Assets and liabilities should be adjusted for events occurring after the balance sheet date that provide additional evidence to assist the estimation of amounts relating to conditions existing at the balance sheet date or that indicate that the fundamental accounting assumption of going concern (i.e., the continuance of existence or substratum of the enterprise) is not appropriate.
Dividends stated to be in respect of the period covered by the financial statements, which are proposed or declared by the enterprise after the balance sheet date but before approval of the financial statements, should be adjusted.
Disclosure should be made in the report of the approving authority of those events occurring after the balance sheet date that represent material changes and commitments affecting the financial position of the enterprise.
(c) (i) The nature and amount of prior period items should be separately disclosed in
the statement of profit and loss in a manner that their impact on the current profit or loss can be perceived.
(ii) The effect of a change in an accounting estimate should be included in the determination of net profit or loss in:
(a) the period of the change, if the change affects the period only; or
(b) the period of the change and future periods, if the change affects both.
The effect of a change in an accounting estimate should be classified using the same classification in the statement of profit and loss as was used previously for the estimate.
The nature and amount of a change in an accounting estimate which has a material effect in the current period, or which is expected to have a material effect in subsequent periods, should be disclosed. If it is impracticable to quantify the amount, this fact should be disclosed.
(d) Para 87, 88 and 89 of AS 26 states that an intangible asset should be derecognised (eliminated from the balance sheet) on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use and subsequent disposal.
Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of an intangible asset should be determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and should be recognised as income or expense in the statement of profit and loss.
An intangible asset that is retired from active use and held for disposal is carried at its carrying amount at the date when the asset is retired from active use. At least at each financial year end, an enterprise tests the asset for impairment under Accounting Standard on Impairment of Assets, and recognises any impairment loss accordingly.
(e) As per para 50 and 52 of AS 19, if a sale and leaseback transaction results in an operating lease, and it is clear that the transaction is established at fair value, any profit or loss should be recognised immediately. If the sale price is below fair value, any profit or loss should be recognised immediately except that, if the loss is compensated by future lease payments at below market price, it should be deferred and amortised in proportion to the lease payments over the period for which the asset is expected to be used. If the sale price is above fair value, the excess over fair value should be deferred and amortised over the period for which the asset is expected to be used.
For operating leases, if the fair value at the time of a sale and leaseback transaction is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss equal to the amount of the difference between the carrying amount and fair value should be recognised immediately.
(f) According to para 44 of AS 20, If the number of equity or potential equity shares outstanding increases as a result of a bonus issue or share split or decreases as a result of a reverse share split (consolidation of shares), the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share should be adjusted for all the periods presented. If these changes occur after the balance sheet date but before the date on which the financial statements are approved by the board of directors, the per share calculations for those financial statements and any prior period financial statements presented should be based on the new number of shares. When per share calculations reflect such changes in the number of shares, that fact should be disclosed.

To A Ltd.'s account (Being lease of machinery recorded at present value of MLP)
As per para 11 of AS 19, the lessee should recognise the lease as an asset and a liability at an amount equal to the fair value of the leased asset at the inception of lease. However, if the fair value of the leased asset exceeds the present value of minimum lease payments from the standpoint of lessee, the amount recorded should be the present value of these minimum lease payments. Therefore, in this case, as the fair value of Rs. 20,00,000 is more than the present value amounting Rs. 17,25,820, the machinery has been recorded at Rs. 17,25,820 in the books of B Ltd. (the lessee) at the inception of the lease. According to para 13 of the standard, at the inception of the lease, the asset and liability for the future lease payments are recognised in the balance sheet at the same amounts.

(b) As per para 39 of AS 20, Potential Equity Shares should be treated as dilutive when, and only when, their conversion to equity shares would decrease net profit per share from continuing ordinary operations.'
As income from continuing operations is the control figure as per para 40, Rs.
2,40,000 should be considered and not Rs. (1,20,000) for deciding whether the potential equity shares are dilutive or anti-dilutive. Accordingly, 200 potential equity shares would be dilutive potential equity shares since their inclusion decrease the net profit per share from continuing operations from Rs. 240 (i.e. Rs.2,40,000/ 1,000 shares) to Rs. 200 (i.e. Rs.2,40,000/1,200 shares). In view of the above, the basic loss per share would be Rs. 120 and diluted loss per share would be Rs. 100.
21. (a) As per AS 11 (revised 2003), The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates',
monetary items denominated in a foreign currency should be reported using the closing rate at each balance sheet date. The effect of exchange difference should be taken into profit and loss account. Sundry creditors is a monetary item, hence should be valued at the closing rate i.e, Rs.48 at 31st March, 2007 irrespective of the payment for the same subsequently at lower rate in the next financial year. The difference of Rs.5 (48-43) per US dollar should be shown as an exchange loss in the profit and loss account for the year ended 31st March, 2007 and is not to be adjusted against the cost of raw- materials. In the subsequent year, the company would record an exchange gain of Re.1 per US dollar, i.e., the difference between Rs.48 and Rs.47 per Us dollar. Hence, the accounting treatment adopted by the company is incorrect.
(b) It is given that revision of wages took place on 1st September, 2007 with retrospective effect from 30.9.2006. Therefore wages payable for the half year from 1.10.2006 to 31.3.2007 cannot be taken as an error or omission in the preparation of financial statements and hence this expenditure cannot be taken as a prior period item.
Additional wages liability of Rs. 7,50,000 (for 1/ years @ Rs. 5,00,000 per annum) should be included in current year's wages.
It may be mentioned that additional wages is an expense arising from the ordinary activities of the company. Although abnormal in amount, such an expense does not qualify as an extraordinary item. However, as per para 12 of AS 5 (Revised), when items of income and expense within profit or loss from ordinary activities are of such size, nature or incidence that their disclosure is relevant to explain the performance of the enterprise for the period, the nature and amount of such items should be disclosed separately.
22. (a) According to para 8 of AS 4 (Revised 1995), the unexpected increase in sale price
of petrol by the government after the balance sheet date cannot be regarded as an event occurring after the Balance Sheet date, which requires an adjustment at the Balance Sheet date, since it does not represent a condition present at the balance sheet date. The revenue should be recognized only in the subsequent year with proper disclosures. The retrospective increase in the petrol price should not be considered as a prior period item, as per AS 5, because there was no error in the preparation of previous period's financial statements.
(b) According to AS 26, the enterprise should amortise the right to generate power over sixty years, unless there is evidence that its useful life is shorter. But the enterprise should subject this right to impairment testing at each year end during its useful life since useful life is considered to be more than 10 years.
23. In respect of depreciable assets, AS 12 does not permit the crediting of the grant or any part thereof to capital reserve. The company has only two options - reduce the grant from the cost of fixed assets or treat it as deferred income. It appears that company follows the first option. Out of the Rs. 8,00,000 that has been received, Rs. 4,00,000 is the balance in Machinery account and so Rs. 4,00,000 should be credited to the Machinery account. The balance Rs. 4,00,000 may be credited to profit & loss account as already the cost of the assets to the tune of Rs. 6,00,000 has been debited to profit and loss account in the earlier years and Rs. 4,00,000 transferred to profit & loss account would be partial recovery of that cost. There is no need to provide depreciation for 200708 or 2008-09 as the depreciable amount is now Nil.
24. According to AS 29 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets', contingent liability should be disclosed in the financial statements if following conditions are satisfied:
(i) There is a present obligation arising out of past events but not recognized as provision.
(ii) It is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation.
(iii) The possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is also remote.
(iv) The amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability to be recognized as provision.
In this case, the probability of winning of first five cases is 100% and hence, question of providing for contingent loss does not arise. The probability of winning of next ten cases is 60% and for remaining five cases is 50%. As per AS 29, we make a provision if the loss is probable. As the loss does not appear to be probable and the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is not remote rather there is reasonable possibility of loss, therefore disclosure by way of note should be made. For the purpose of the disclosure of contingent liability by way of note, amount may be calculated as under:
Expected loss in next ten cases = 30% of Rs. 1,20,000 + 10% of Rs. 2,00,000
= Rs. 36,000 + Rs. 20,000 = Rs. 56,000
To disclose contingent liability on the basis of maximum loss will be highly unrealistic. Therefore, the better approach will be to disclose the overall expected loss of Rs. 9,20,000 (Rs. 56,000 x 10 + Rs. 72,000 x 5) as contingent liability.
25. (i) Computation of average accumulated expenses Rs.
Rs. 2,00,000 x 12 / 12 = 2,00,000
Rs. 2,50,000 x 9 / 12 = 1,87,500
Rs. 4,50,000 x 6 / 12 = 2,25,000
Rs. 1,20,000 x 1 / 12 = 10,000
6,22,500
(ii) Calculation of average interest rate other than for specific borrowings
Amount of loan (in Rs.) Rate of Ampount of interest (in Rs.)

Dr. (Rs.) Cr. (Rs.) 10,94,189 In the above situation, shares received from X Ltd. Company have been distributed between two partners A and B in the ratio of their final claims. Alternatively, shares received from X Ltd. can be distributed among the partners in their profit sharing ratio i.e. Rs. 2,79,000 x Vi =Rs. 1,39,500 each. In that case, firm will pay cash amounting Rs. 27,965 to A and will receive cash Rs.22,035 from B. In the absence of the particulars of assets and liabilities (other than those of A Ltd.), the complete Balance Sheet of B Ltd. after takeover cannot be prepared. The difference between this figure and guaranteed residual value (Rs. 1,00,000) is due to approximation in computing the interest rate implicit in the lease.
