Financial Statements of Companies

UNIT 1: Preparation of Financial Statements


Question 1
In the financial statements of the financial year 20X1-20X2, Alpha Ltd. has mentioned in the notes to
accounts that during financial year, 24,000 equity shares of ` 10 each were issued as fully paid bonus shares.
However, the source from which these bonus shares were issued has not been disclosed. Is such non-
disclosure a violation of the Schedule III to the Companies Act? Comment.
(Study Material)
Answer
Schedule III has come into force for the Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account prepared for the financial
year commencing on or after 1st April, 20X1. As per Part I of the Schedule III, a company should, inter alia,
disclose in notes to accounts for the period of 5 years immediately preceding the balance sheet date (31st
March, 20X2 in the instant case) the aggregate number and class of shares allotted as fully paid-up bonus
shares. Schedule III does not require a company to disclose the source from which bonus shares have been
issued. Therefore, non-disclosure of source from which bonus shares have been issued does not violate the
Schedule III to the Companies Act.

Question 2
The management of Loyal Ltd. contends that the work in process is not valued since it is difficult to ascertain
the same in view of the multiple processes involved. They opine that the value of opening and closing work in
process would be more or less the same. Accordingly, the management had not separately disclosed work in
process in its financial statements. Comment in line with Schedule III.
(Study Material)
Answer
Schedule III to the companies Act does not require that the amounts of WIP at the beginning and at the end
of the accounting period to be disclosed in the statement of profit and loss. Only changes in inventories of
WIP need to be disclosed in the statement of profit and loss. Non-disclosure of such change in the statement
of profit and loss by the company may not amount to violation of Schedule III if the differences between
opening and closing WIP are not material.
  
Question 3
Futura Ltd. had the following items under the head “Reserves and Surplus” in the
Balance Sheet as on 31st March, 20X1:
Amount` in lakhs
Securities Premium Account 80
Capital Reserve 60
General Reserve 90
The company had an accumulated loss of ` 250 lakhs on the same date, which it has disclosed under the
head “Statement of Profit and Loss” as asset in its Balance Sheet. Comment on accuracy of this treatment in
line with Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013.
(Study Material)
2 Chap. 4  Financial Statements of Companies

Answer
Part I of Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013 provides that debit balance of Statement of Profit and Loss
(after all allocations and appropriations) should be shown as a negative figure under the head ‘Surplus’.
Similarly, the balance of ‘Reserves and Surplus’, after adjusting negative balance of surplus, should be shown
under the head ‘Reserves and Surplus’ even if the resulting figure is in the negative. In this case, the debit
balance of profit and loss i.e. ` 250 lakhs exceeds the total of all the reserves i.e. ` 230 lakhs. Therefore,
balance of ‘Reserves and Surplus’ after adjusting debit balance of profit and loss is negative by ` 20 lakhs,
which should be disclosed on the face of the balance sheet. Thus the treatment done by the company is
incorrect.

Question 4
Sumedha Ltd. took a loan from bank for ` 10,00,000 to be settled within 5 years in 10 equal half yearly
instalments with interest. First instalment is due on 30.09.20X1 of ` 1,00,000. Determine how the loan will be
classified in preparation of Financial Statements of Sumedha Ltd. for the year ended 31st March, 20X1
according to Schedule III.
(Study Material)
Answer
As per Schedule III, a liability should be classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:
(i) it is expected to be settled in the company’s normal operating cycle;
(ii) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;
(iii) it is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting date; or
(iv) the company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve
months after the reporting date.
In the given case, instalments due on 30.09.20X1 and 31.03.20X2 will be shown under the head ‘other
current liabilities’ as per criteria (c). Therefore, in the balance sheet as on 31.3.20X1, ` 8,00,000 (` 1,00,000 x
8 instalments) will be shown under the heading ‘Long term Borrowings’ and ` 2,00,000 (` 1,00,000 x 2
instalments) will be shown under the heading ‘Other Current Liabilities’ as current maturities of loan from
bank.

Question 8
Due to inadequacy of profits during the year ended 31st March, 20X2, XYZ Ltd. proposes to declare 10%
dividend out of general reserves. From the following particulars, ascertain the amount that can be utilised
from general reserves, according to the Companies (Declaration of dividend out of Reserves) Rules, 2014:
`
17,500 9% Preference shares of ` 100 each, fully paid up 17,50,000
8,00,000 Equity shares of ` 10 each, fully paid up 80,00,000
General Reserves as on 1.4.20X1 25,00,000
Capital Reserves as on 1.4.20X1 3,00,000
Revaluation Reserves as on 1.4.20X1 3,50,000
Net profit for the year ended 31st March, 20X2 3,00,000
Average rate of dividend during the last three years has been 12%.
(Study Material)
Answer
Amount that can be drawn from reserves for 10% dividend
10% dividend on ` 80,00,000 ` 8,00,000
Profits available
Current year profit 3,00,000
Less: Preference dividend (1,57,500) (1,42,500)
Amount which can be utilised from reserves 6,57,500
Conditions as per Companies (Declaration of dividend out of Reserves) Rules, 20X1:
Condition I
Since 10% is lower than the average rate of dividend (12%), 10% dividend can be declared.
Condition II
Maximum amount that can be drawn from the accumulated profits and reserves should not exceed 10% of
paid up capital plus free reserves ie. ` 12,25,000 [10% of (80,00,000+17,50,000+25,00,000)]
Condition III
The balance of reserves after drawl ` 18,42,500 (` 25,00,000 - ` 6,57,500) should not fall below 15 % of its
paid up capital ie. ` 14,62,500 (15% of ` 97,50,000]
6 Chap. 4  Financial Statements of Companies

Since all the three conditions are satisfied, the company can withdraw ` 6,57,500 from accumulated reserves
(as per Declaration and Payment of Dividend Rules, 2014.)

Question 21
Sagar Ltd. has issued convertible bonds for `65 crores which are due to mature on 30th September, 2018.
While preparing financial statements for the year ending 31st March, 2018, company expects that bond
holders will not exercise their option of converting bonds to equity shares. How should the company classify
the convertible bonds as per the requirements of Schedule-Ill to the Companies Act, 2013 as on 31st March,
2018?
Also state, whether classification of convertible Bonds as per Schedule-Ill to the Companies Act will change if
the company expects that convertible bond holders will convert their holdings into equity shares of Sagar Ltd.
(November 2018) (5 marks)
Answer
Schedule III to the companies Act, 2013 provides that:
"A liability should be classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:
(a) it is expected to be settled in the company's normal operating cycle;
(b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;
(c) it is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting date; or
(d) the company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve
months after the reporting date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result
in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments and do not affect its classification."
In the present situation, Sagar Ltd. does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for
at least 12 months after the reporting date, hence Sagar Ltd. should classify the FCCBs as current liabilities
as on 31st March 2018.
34 Chap. 4  Financial Statements of Companies

The position will be same even when the bond holders are expected to convert their holdings into equity
shares of Sagar Ltd. Expectations cannot be called as unconditional rights. Thus, in this situation also, Sagar
Ltd. should classify the FCCBs as current liabilities as on 31st March 2018.

Question 22
How will a company classify its investment in preference shares, which are convertible into equity shares
within one year from the balance sheet date? Will it classify the investment as a current asset or a non-
current asset? Explain.
(MTP August 2018) (5 Marks)
Answer:
In accordance with the Schedule III, an investment realizable within 12 months from the reporting date is
classified as a current asset. Such realisation should be in the form of cash or cash equivalents, rather than
through conversion of one asset into another non-current asset. Hence, company must classify such an
investment as a non-current asset, unless it expects to sell the preference shares or the equity shares on
conversion and realise cash within 12 months.

Answer:
In accordance with the Schedule III, an investment realizable within 12 months from the reporting date is
classified as a current asset. Such realisation should be in the form of cash or cash equivalents, rather than
through conversion of one asset into another non-current asset. Hence, company must classify such an

Answer:
In accordance with the Schedule III, an investment realizable within 12 months from the reporting date is
classified as a current asset. Such realisation should be in the form of cash or cash equivalents, rather than
through conversion of one asset into another non-current asset. Hence, company must classify such an
investment as a non-current asset, unless it expects to sell the preference shares or the equity shares on

Question 26
X Ltd. is a group engaged in manufacture and sale of industrial and FMCG products. One of their division
also deals in Leasing of properties - Mobile Towers. The accountant showed the rent arising from the leasing
of such properties as other income in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Comment whether the classification of the rent income made by the accountant is correct or not in the light of
Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013.
(November 2019, New Course, 5 Marks)
Answer
As per para 4 of the ‘General Instructions for preparation of Statement of Profit and Loss’ given in the
Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013, ‘other income’ does not include operating income.
The term “Revenue from operations” has not been defined under Schedule III to the Companies Act 2013.
However, as per Guidance Note on Schedule III to the Companies Act 2013 this would include revenue
arising from a company’s operating activities i.e. either its principal or ancillary revenue -generating activities.
Whether a particular income constitutes “Revenue from operations” or “other income” is to be decided based
on the facts of each case and detailed understanding of the company’s activities. The classification of income
would also depend on the purpose for which the particular asset is acquired or held.
As per the information given in the question, X Ltd is a group engaged in manufacture and sale of industrial
and FMCG products and its one of the division deals in leasing of properties- Mobile Towers. Since its one
division is continuously engaged in leasing of properties, it shall be considered as its principal or ancillary
revenue -generating activities. Therefore, the rent arising from such leasing shall be shown under the head
“Revenue from operations” and not as “Other Income”.
Hence the presentation of rent arising from the leasing of such properties as “other income” in the statement
of Profit and Loss is not correct. It should be shown under the head “Revenue from operations”.
