PAS 2. Par. 22 states that the retail inventory method is often used in the retail industry for
measuring inventories of large numbers of rapidly changing items with similar margins for which it is
impracticable to use other costing methods. The cost of inventory is determined by reducing the sales
value of the inventory by the appropriate percentage gross margin. The percentage used takes into
consideration inventory that has been marked down to below its original selling price. An average
percentage for each retail department is often used.

Before PAS 2, the conventional approach (lower of average cost or market valuation) is often
used if the problem is silent. The conventional approach ignores markdown in the computation of cost
ratio. However, since PAS 2 specifically states that the percentage should take into consideration
inventory that has been marked down to below its original selling price; the cost ratio was computed
using the average method.

PAS 39 par. 43 requires that financial assets should be measured on initial recognition at its fair
value. Application guidance par. 64 of PAS 39 states that the fair value of a financial instrument on
initial recognition is normally the transaction price (i.e. the fair value of the consideration given or

Auditing Problems
77
Substantive Tests of Investments S.Y. 2013-2014

received). However, both the fair value of the consideration given and received are available. Therefore,
the question now is what fair value should be used?

Actually, the conversion of the preference shares into ordinary shares involves derecognition (the
preference shares) and the recognition (the ordinary shares) of financial assets at the holder’s point of
view. PAS 39 par. 25 provides that if, as a result of a transfer, a financial asset is derecognized in its
entirety but the transfer results in the entity obtaining a new financial asset or assuming a new financial
liability, or a servicing liability, the entity shall recognize the new financial asset, financial liability or
servicing liability at fair value.

Therefore, the ordinary shares received in exchange for the preference shares should be
measured at the fair value of the ordinary shares received.

SOLUTION: Illustrative Audit Case 4.2

A regular way purchase or sale is a purchase or sale of a financial asset under a contract whose
terms require delivery of the asset within the time frame established generally by regulation or
convention in the marketplace concerned.

A regular way purchase on sale of financial assets shall be recognized and derecognized, as
applicable, using the trade date accounting or settlement date accounting. (PAS 39 par. 38)

Requirements 1 & 2

The trade date is the date that an entity commits itself to purchase or sell an asset. Trade date
accounting refers to (a) the recognition of an asset to be received and the liability to pay for it on the
trade date, and (b) derecognition of an asset that is sold, recognition of any gain or loss on disposal and
the recognition of a receivable from the buyer for payment on the trade date. Generally, interest does not
start to accrue on the asset and corresponding liability until the settlement date when title passes.

Auditing Problems
79
Substantive Tests of Investments S.Y. 2013-2014

derecognition of an asset and recognition of any gain or loss on disposal on the day that it is delivered by
the entity. When settlement date accounting is applied, an entity accounts for any change in the fair value
of the asset to be received during the period between the trade date and the settlement date in the same
way as it accounts for the acquired asset. In other words, the change in value is not recognized for assets
carried at cost or amortized cost; it is recognized in profit or loss for assets classified as financial assets
at fair value through profit or loss.

ILLUSTRATIVE AUDIT CASE 4.5- Impairment of Investment in Bonds

Purita Company purchased investment in bonds on January 1, 2012. At this date, the cost and fair
value is P 1,000,000. The bonds are classified as financial assets at fair value. On December 31, 2012, the
bonds were selling at 90. Because of the significant financial difficulty of the issuer, the bonds are
considered impaired on December 31, 2013 when the bonds are quoted at 70. On December 31, 2014, the
bonds are quoted at 95. The increase in the fair value of the bonds on December 31, 2014 is due to the
improvement of the issuer’s credit rating.

Required:

1. How much should be recognized as impairment loss in the year 2013?


a. P 300,000 c. P 100,000
b. P 200,000 d. P 0

Answer: D

SOLUTION: Illustrative Audit Case 5

IMPAIRMENT- FINANCIAL ASSET AT FAIR VALUE

For financial assets measured at fair value, all gains and losses are either presented in profit or
loss or in other comprehensive income depending on whether the election to present gains and losses on
equity investments in other comprehensive income is taken or not.

Therefore, it is not necessary to assess financial assets measured at fair value for impairment.

In other words, under PFRS 9, there is no more impairment loss on financial asset measured at
fair value, whether through profit or loss, or through other comprehensive income.

Auditing Problems
83
Substantive Tests of Investments S.Y. 2013-2014

Accordingly, if the decline in value of financial asset measured at fair value through
comprehensive income is judged to be nontemporary, the unrealized loss will continue to be reported as
component of other comprehensive income rather than as an impairment loss.
ILLUSTRATIVE AUDIT CASE 4.6-Impairment of Investment in Equity Securities

On January 1, 2012, Manila Company purchased 200,000 ordinary shares of Poor Corporation at
P100 per share. The shares do not qualify as financial assets held for trading. The following table sets out
the changes in the fair value of the shares and the nature of the change in each year:

Year Fair Value Change Nature of Change


2012 (P 200,000) No objective evidence of impairment
2013 ( 400,000) objective evidence of impairment
2014 500,000 objective evidence of reversal of impairment

Required:

1. The amount to be recognized in 2013 profit or loss as a result of the fair value changes is
a. P 600,000 c. P 200,000
b. P 400,000 d. P 0

Answer: A

SOLUTION: Illustrative Audit Case 4.6

IMPAIRMENT- FINANCIAL ASSET AT AMORTIZED COST

Under PFRS 9, there is now only one impairment method for financial assets measured at
amortized cost.

Paragraph 58 of PAS 39 as consequently amended by PFRS 9 provides that an entity shall assess
at the end of the reporting period whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or group
of financial assets measured at amortized cost is impaired.

Paragraph 63 of PAS 39 further provides that if there is objective evidence that an impairment
loss on financial assets measured at amortized cost has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured
as the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows
discounted at the original effective interest rate.

The carrying amount of the asset shall be reduced either directly or through the use of an
allowance account. The amount of the loss shall be recognized in profit or loss.

Incidentally, the journal entry to record the impairment of the investment on December 31, 2013
is:

Impairment loss (P/L) P 600,000

ILLUSTRATIVE AUDIT CASE 4.7- Investment in Associate; Excess of Cost Over Fair Value

On July 1, 2013, San Pedro Company acquired 25% of the outstanding ordinary shares of San
Pablo Corporation at a total of P7,000,000. The underlying equity of shares acquired by San Pedro was
only P6,000,000. San Pedro is willing to pay more than book value for the following reasons:

a. San Pablo owned depreciable plant assets (10-year remaining economic life) with a current fair
value of P600,000 more than its carrying amount.
b. San Pablo owned land with current fair value of P3,000,000 more than its carrying amount.
c. There are no other identifiable tangible or intangible assets with fair value in excess of book
value. Accordingly, the remaining excess, if any, is to be allocated to goodwill.

San Pablo earned net income of P5,400,000 evenly over the year ended December 31,2013. On
December 31, San Pablo declared and paid a cash dividend of P1,050,000 to ordinary shareholders.
Market value of San Pedro’s shares at December 31, 2013 is P7,500,000. Both companies close their
accounting records on December 31.

An investment in associate is accounted for using the equity method from the date on which it
becomes an associate. Goodwill relating to an associate is included in the carrying amount of the
investment. However, amortization of that goodwill is not permitted and is therefore not included in the
determination of the investor’s share of the associate’s profits and losses.

Appropriate adjustments to the investor’s share of the associate’s profits or losses after acquisition
are also made to account, for example, for depreciation of the depreciable assets based on their fair
values at the acquisition date. Similarly, appropriate adjustments to the investor’s share of the
associate’s profits and losses after acquisition are made for impairment losses recognized by the
associate, such as for goodwill or property, plant and equipment.

If an investor’s share of losses of an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, the
investor discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. The interest in an associate is the carrying
amount of the investment in the associate under the equity method together with any long-term interests
that, in substance, form part of the investor’s net investment in the associate. (PAS 28 par. 29)

influence can be clearly demonstrated. (PAS 28 par. 6)

Requirement 2

Malabon Co. owns 25% (125,000/500,000) of BBB Co. shares; therefore, the equity method is
used to record the income earned.

ILLUSTRATIVE AUDIT CASE 4.10- Change from Fair Value Method to Equity Method

On January 3, 2011, San Mateo Company purchased for P 1,500,000 cash a 10% interest in San
Juan Corp. On that date, the net assets of San Juan had a book value of P 11,250,000. The excess of cost
over the underlying equity in net assets is attributable to undervalued depreciable assets having a
remaining life of ten years from the date of San Mateo’s purchase. The investment in San Juan Corp. is
not intended for trading.

The fair value of San Mateo’s investment in San Juan securities is as follows: December 31,
2011, P1,710,000; December 31,2012, P1, 575,000; and December 31, 2013, P6,600,00.

SOLUTION: Illustrative Audit Case 4.10

The problem actually involves investing in an associate in stages, the accounting for which is not
covered in PAS 28. However, PAS 28 par. 20 states that many of the procedures appropriate for the
application of the equity method are similar to the consolidation procedures described in PAS 27.
Furthermore, the concepts underlying the procedures used in accounting for the acquisition of a
subsidiary are also adopted in accounting for the acquisition of an investment in associate. Therefore,
because of the lack of accounting guidance in PAS28, we can refer to PFRS 3 in accounting for business
combinations achieved in stages.

PFRS 3, par. 42, provides that in a business combination achieved in stages, the acquirer shall
remeasure the previously held equity interest at fair value and recognize the resulting gain or loss in
profit or loss.

Auditing Problems
91
Substantive Tests of Investments S.Y. 2013-2014

By inference, the investor shall remeasure the previously held interest in an investee using the
equity method. The difference between the remeasured equity amount and the carrying amount of the
investment shall be recognized in profit or loss.

Actually, the difference between the remeasured equity amount and the carrying amount of the
investment is the same as the difference between the income previously reported and the income that
would have been reported under the equity method.

Based on the above explanation, there is no necessary adjustment to retained earnings as of

ILLUSTRATIVE AUDIT CASE 4.12-Interest Rate Swap- Cash Flow Hedge

On January 1, 2013, Vigan Company received a 2-year, P33,000,000 loan, with interest payments
occurring at the end of each year and the principal to be repaid on December 31, 2014. The interest rate
for the first year is the prevailing market rate of 8%, and the rate in 2014 will be equal to the market
interest rate on January 1, 2014. In conjunction with this loan, Vigan enters into an interest rate swap
agreement to receive a swap payment (based on P33, 000, 000) if the January 1, 2014 interest rate is
greater than 8% and will make a swap payment if the rate is less than 8%. The interest swap payment
will be made on December 31, 2014. On January 1, 2014, the interest rate is 7%. Assume that all
conditions for hedge accounting are met.

Required:

1. What is the net amount that Vigan will pay or receive as a result of the interest rate swap?
a. P 308,418 payment c. P 330,000 payment
b. P 305,547 payment d. P 330,000 receipt

2. How much should be recognized on Vigan’s December 31, 2013 Statement of Financial Position
in relation to the interest rate swap?
a. P 308,418 payable c. P 330,000 payable
b. P 305,547 payable d. P 330,000 receivable

SOLUTION: Illustrative Audit Case 4. 12


Requirement 1
Payment ( P33,000,000 x 8%) P 2,640,000
Receipt (P33,000,000 x 7%) 2,310,000
Net Payment P 330 000

The computation means that under the interest rate swap agreement, Vigan Company shall pay
P330,000 on December 31, 2014 by reason of a lower interest rate.

Requirement 2

Derivative Liability – interest rate swap payable,


December 31, 2013 (P330,000 x . 9346) P308, 418

The “unrealized loss” on the interest rate swap is a component of other comprehensive income
because the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge.

Incidentally, the journal entry to recognize the change in fair value of the interest rate swap
follows:

Unrealized loss on interest rate swap (OCI) P 308, 418


Interest rate swap payable P 308, 418

Requirement 3

Interest paid (P33,000,000 x 7%) P 2,310,000

ILLUSTRATIVE AUDIT CASE 4.13-Interest Rate Swap- Fair Value Hedge

On January 1, 2013, Cauayan Corporation purchased a five-year bonds that has a principal
amount of P1,000,000 and pays annually fixed interest rate of 12% per year. Cauayan Corporation
classified the bond as financial asset at fair value. Current market interest rates for similar five- year
bonds are also 12%.

Because the interest rate is fixed, Cauayan Corporation is exposed to the risk of declines in fair
value of the bond. To eliminate the risk of declines in fair value due to increases in market interest rates,
Cauayan Corporation enters into an interest rate swap on January 1, 2013 to exchange the fixed interest

Since the investment is designated as a hedged item, the hedge accounting of PAS 39 should be
applied.

A fair value hedge is a hedge of the exposure to changes in fair value of a recognized asset or
liability or a previously unrecognized firm commitment to buy or sell an asset at a fixed price or an
identified portion of such asset, liability or firm commitment, that is attributable to a particular risk and

2013, because of the volatile fluctuation in the price of exotic fish, Santiago negotiated a forward contract
with Pay It Bank to purchase 2,000 kilos of exotic fish on January 1, 2013 at a price of P800 per kilo or
1,600,000. On December 31, 2013, and January 1, 2014, the prevailing market price for fish is P820 per
kilo. Santiago purchases the exotic fish and settles the forward contract on January 1, 2014. Assume that
all conditions for the hedge accounting are met and the appropriate discount rate is 12%.

Required:

1. The amount that should be recognized as derivative asset/liability on December 31, 2013 is

Forward is another example of a derivative. Forward is a contract to purchase or sell a specific


quantity of a financial instrument, a commodity, or a foreign currency at a specified price determined at
the outset, with delivery or settlement at a specified future date. Settlement is at maturity by actual
delivery of the item specified in the contract, or by a net cash settlement.

Requirement 2
The forward contract is a cash flow hedge since it is a hedge of the exposure to variability in cash
flows. Again, the portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an
effective hedge is recognized in the other comprehensive income and reclassified to profit or loss when
the hedged cash transaction affects it. Therefore, there would be no amount to be recognized in the 2013
profit or loss.

The equity conversion option in the convertible debt is an example of an embedded derivative
from the perspective of the holder.

Auditing Problems
99
Substantive Tests of Investments S.Y. 2013-2014

An embedded derivative is a component of a hybrid (combined) instrument that also includes a


non-derivative host contract- with the effect that some of the cash flows of the combined instrument vary
in a way similar to a stand-alone derivative.

An embedded derivative shall be separated from the host contract and accounted for as a
derivative under PAS 39 if, and only if:
a. The economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not closely related to the
economic characteristics and risks of the host contract;
b. A separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition
of a derivative; and
c. The hybrid (combined) instrument is not measured at fair value with changes in fair value
recognized in profit or loss.

Requirement 1

An equity conversion feature embedded in a convertible debt instrument is not closely related to
the host debt instrument from the perspective of the holder of the instrument. An equity conversion option
would also meet the definition of a derivative. However, since the investment is classified as held for
trading, the embedded derivative is not required to be separated.

Requirement 2

Since the investment is not classified as held for trading, the embedded derivative is required to
be separated from its host contract. The embedded derivative should be measured at fair value with
changes recognized in profit or loss while the host contract shall be measured at fair value with changes
recognized in other comprehensive income.
Requirement 3

Since the investment is classified as financial asset at amortized cost, the embedded derivative is
required to be separated from its host contract. The embedded derivative should be measured at fair
value with changes recognized in profit or loss while the host contract shall be measured at amortized
cost.

• An intangible asset is an identifiable nonmonetary asset without physical substance.

Auditing Problems
102
Substantive Tests of Intangibles S.Y. 2013-2014

• Three essential criteria:


o Identifiability
o Control
o Future economic benefits
• An intangible asset shall be recognized if the following conditions are present:
o It is probable that economic benefits attributable to the asset will flow to the entity.
o The cost of intangible asset can be measured reliably.

Initial Measurement
I. Separate Acquisition - purchase price, including any import duties and
nonrefundable purchase taxes after deducting trade discounts
and rebates and any directly attributable cost of preparing the
asset for its intended use.
- if the payment for an intangible asset is deferred beyond
normal credit terms, its cost is the cash price equivalent. The
difference between the cash equivalent and the total payments
is recognized as interest expense over its credit period.
II. Acquisition as part of a business - If acquired in a business combination, its cost is based on its
combination fair value on the date of acquisition.
III. Acquisition by way of a - Fair value; or
government grant - Nominal amount or zero, plus any expenditure that is directly
attributable to preparing the asset for its intended use.
(Accounting for government grants)
IV. Acquisition by exchange - Measured at its fair value.
- If the exchange transaction lacks commercial substance, it is
measured at the carrying amount of the asset given up.
V. Acquisition by self-creation or - All directly attributable costs necessary to create produce and
internal generation prepare the asset to be capable of operating it in the manner
intended by management.

PAS 38 provides that the depreciable amount of an intangible asset that has a finite life should be
allocated (amortized) on a systematic basis over its useful life. Amortization begins when the asset is
available for use, i.e., when it is in the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating
in the manner intended by management. On the other hand, an intangible asset with an indefinite useful
life should not be amortized but should be tested for impairment by comparing its recoverable amount
with its carrying amount at least annually, and whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset
may be impaired.

Legal costs incurred in prosecuting or defending a patent are subsequent costs of maintaining,
rather than enhancing the original future economic benefits that are expected to flow from the patent.
These subsequent legal costs should be expensed, not capitalized.

ILLUSTRATIVE AUDIT CASE 5.16- Research and Development

During 2010, APEX COMPANY purchased a building site for its proposed research and
development laboratory at a cost of P1,200,000. Construction of the building was started in 2010. The
building was completed on December 31, 2011, at a cost of P5,600,000 and was placed in service on
January 2, 2012. The estimated useful life of the building for depreciation purposes was 20 years; the
straight-line method of depreciation was to be employed and there was no estimated salvage value.

Management estimates that about 50% of the projects of the research and development group will
result in long-term benefits (i.e., at least 10 years) to the corporation. However, Apex fails to demonstrate
how such projects will generate probable future economic benefits. The remaining projects either benefit
the current period or are abandoned before completion. A summary of the number of projects and the
direct costs incurred in conjunction with the research and development activities for 2012 appears below.

Upon recommendation of the research and development group, Apex Company acquired a patent
for manufacturing rights at a cost of P1,600,000. The patent was acquired on April 1, 2011, and has an
economic life of 10 years.

Strathroy Manufacturing is in its sixth year of operations. The company had purchased all of its
manufacturing equipment when it started operations, but recently, it has been falling behind competitors
due to some outdated equipment. In response to this, the management of Strathroy has acquired a new
manufacturing machine, added to its computer facilities and moved into a new location. Information
regarding purchases and updates occurring on January 1, Year 7 for the three items are presented below:

1. An integrated computer system was purchased at a cost of $80,000, and is expected to last 4
years. The company expected that most of the benefits would come in the earlier years and
less in the later years, as the computer becomes outdated. It was expected to have a residual
value of $5,000 at the end of 4 years.

2. New manufacturing equipment was purchased at a cost of $280,000. The equipment is


expected to produce 600,000 units over the next 5 years with expected output of 100,000 in
year 1; 130,000 in years 2 and 3; and 120,000 in years 4 and 5. The equipment is expected to
have a residual value of $40,000 at the end of year 5.

3. A new building has been purchased at a cost of $800,000 and is expected to last the company
20 years, with an expected residual value of $250,000.

The company uses the most appropriate method available for the depreciation of its property,
plant, and equipment. For assets where the diminishing-balance method is appropriate, the company uses
double-the straight line rate.

Required:

Using the most appropriate method for the (1) computer system, (2) manufacturing equipment, and (3)
building, determine the amount of depreciation that would be recorded for each item in each of the first
two years.

SOLUTION: Illustrative Audit Case 6.1

Solution Step Progress Technique

1. Orientation: Read the problem quickly to get a feel for the type of problem and environment of
the problem. Identify that it is a manufacturing company, which has outdated equipment and is
looking to upgrade. The stakeholders are the managers and shareholders (or owners) as well as
government and employees. The problem deals with depreciation of property, plant, and
equipment. There are different acceptable methods to depreciate assets, based on the pattern of
the asset’s future economic benefits.

2. Analysis: Read the required and identify the type of problem that is being asked. This is a
depreciation calculation problem where you are also being asked to identify how each of the
newly acquired assets should be treated in regards to the appropriate method of depreciation,
given the choices available under GAAP. As discussed in the textbook, this is based on the pattern
of the asset’s future economic benefits (i.e., the way it is being used to generate revenues for the

Auditing Problems
128
Substantive Tests of Property, Plant and Equipment S.Y. 2013-2014

company). Note that you are being asked for each of the first two years, not just the first year.
Look in the body of the chapter relating to depreciation and review the different methods and
formulas of depreciation and when each method should be used.

Straight-line: used when the economic benefits produced by the asset are relatively consistent
each period.

Formula: Depreciation Expense = [Cost – Residual Value] ÷ Estimated Useful Life

Diminishing Balance: used when the asset generates more economic benefits in the earlier
years, than in the later years.

Formula: Straight-line Depreciation Rate = 100% ÷ Estimated Useful Life


Double Diminishing balance Depreciation Rate = 2 × Straight-line Rate
Carrying Amount = Cost – Accumulated Depreciation
Depreciation Expense = Carrying Amount × Depreciation Rate
Note: Do not include residual value in initial calculation. However, note that you cannot
depreciate the asset below its residual value.

Units-of-productivity: Used when the economic benefits produced differ in each period.

Formula: Depreciable Amount Per Unit = [Cost – Residual Value] ÷ Total Estimated Units of
Activity
Depreciation Expense = Actual Units of Activity in Period × Depreciable Amount Per
Unit

3. Planning: Try to identify the specific situations with relation to each of the assets. It is clear from
the wording that each asset is to be treated differently.
a) A quick look at the descriptions of the assets should identify that the new computer
facilities will produce more economic benefits in the early years, thus requiring the
use of the diminishing-balance method. Note the specific wording in the problem
relating to the aging of the computer: The company expected that most of the benefits
would come in the earlier years and less in the later years as the computer becomes
outdated.
b) As shown by the differing levels of output, the new manufacturing equipment will be
utilized differently each period. The most appropriate method for this equipment is
the units-of-production method.
c) The building is to be used equally in each of the periods and thus it would be
appropriate to use the straight-line method.

4. Solve the Problem:


Computer: (Double-Diminishing-Balance Method)
Step 1: 100% ÷ 4 years = 25% per year × 2 = 50% Depreciation Rate

Beginning Accumulated

2 $40,000 50% $20,000 60,000 $20,000

Equipment: (Units-of-Production Method)


Step 1: Depreciable Amount = (Cost – Residual Value) / Estimated Total Units of Activity
= ($280,000 – $40,000) / 600,000 units
= $0.40 per unit
Step 2: Depreciation per year
Year 1 = $0.40/ unit × 100,000 units = $40,000
Year 2 = $0.40/ unit × 130,000 units = $52,000

Building: (Straight-Line Method)


Depreciation = (Cost – Residual Value) / Estimated Useful Life
Depreciation = ($800,000 – $250,000) / 20 years
= $27,500 per year in each of year 1 and 2

5. Evaluation: If you complete a depreciation schedule for the life of the asset, check that your final
carrying amount equals the residual value. Ask yourself if you have answered the required in the
manner in which you have been asked. Do your answers look reasonable? If so, you should feel
confident in the answer that you have provided. Is the solution in a clear, concise format that
would be easy for your instructor to follow and grade?

ILLUSTRATIVE AUDIT CASE 6.4

On December 31, 2004, Silver Corporation acquired the following three intangible assets:
• A trademark for P300,000. The trademark has 7 years remaining legal life. It is anticipated that
the trademark will be renewed in the future, indefinitely, without problem.
• Goodwill for P1,500,000. The goodwill is associated with Silver’s Hayo Manufacturing
reporting unit.
• A customer list for P220,000. By contract, Silver has exclusive use of the list for 5 years.
Because of market conditions, it is expected that the list will have economic value for just 3
years.

On December 31, 2005, before any adjusting entries for the year were made, the following
information was assembled about each of the intangible assets:

a. Because of a decline in the economy, the trademark is now expected to generate cash
flows of just P10,000 per year. The useful life of trademark still extends beyond the
foreseeable horizon.

Substantive Tests of Liabilities S.Y. 2013-2014

When an entity breaches an undertaking under a long term loan agreement on or before the end of
the reporting period with the effect that the liability becomes payable on demand, the liability is classified
as current, even if the lender has agreed, after the reporting period and before the authorization of the
financial statements for issue, not to demand payment as a consequence of the breach. The liability is
current, because at the end of the reporting period, the entity does not have an unconditional right to
defer its settlement for at least twelve months after that date. (PAS 1, par. 74)

However, the liability is classified as noncurrent if the lender agreed by the end of the reporting
period to provide a period of grace ending at least twelve months after the reporting period, within which
the entity can rectify the breach and during which the lender cannot demand immediate repayment. (PAS
1, par.75)

and, as at the date of authorizing the financial statements for issue, is unable to estimate the financial
effect, if any, of any costs or damages that may be payable to the plaintiffs.

The Provision for warranties at December 31, 2012 was calculated using the following
assumptions: There was no balance carried forward from the prior year.

Estimated costs of repairs-products with minor defects P1,000,000


Estimated costs of repairs-products with major defects P5,000,000
Expected % of products sold during 2013 having no defects in 2013 85%

Expected % of products sold during 2013 having major defects in 2013 2%
Expected timing of settlement of warranty payments
-those with minor defects all in 2014
Expected timing of settlement of warranty payments 20% in 2014
-those with major defects 60% in 2014

Under PAS 32: Financial instruments: Disclosure and Presentation, a Convertible bond is a
compound financial instrument that contains both a liability component and an Equity component. Such
components should be classified separately on an entity's statement of financial position. The separation
of components is made at the time the instrument is issued and is not subsequently revised.

An Equity instrument evidences a residual Interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all its
liabilities. Thus, when the initial Carrying amount of a compound financial instrument is allocated to its
Equity and liability components, the equity component is assigned the residual amount after deducting
from the fair value of the instrument as a whole the amount separately determined for the liability
component.

In the case of Convertible bonds, the amount allocated to the liability component s the fair value without
the conversion privilege, the sum of the present value of the face amount of the bonds and the present

value of the future Interest payments discounted using the effective Interest rate is assigned to the liability
component.
On the conversion date, the carrying value of the bonds converted is used to measure the
ordinary shares issued. No gain or loss is recognized.

A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards
incidental to ownership. A lease is classified as an operating lease if it does not transfer substantially all
the risks and rewards incidental to ownership. (PAS 17 par 8)

Whether a lease is a finance lease or an operating lease depends on the substance of the
transaction rather than the form. Situations that would normally lead to a lease being classified as a
finance lease include the following:

ILLUSTRATIVE AUDIT CASE 8.1 – Various Equity Transactions

In connection with your audit of the Kalan Corporation, you were able to obtain the following
information pertaining to the corporation’s equity accounts
.
Kalan Corporation has 32,000, P2 par value, ordinary shares authorized. Only 75% of these
shares have been issued, and of the shares issued, only 22,000 are outstanding. On December 31, 2013,
the equity section revealed that the balance in Share Premium- Ordinary was P832,000, and the Retained
Earnings balance was P220,000. The Treasury shares were purchased at an average price of P37.50 per
share.

During 2014, Kalan had the following transactions:

Apr. 15 Kalan reacquired 400 ordinary shares for P43 per share.

Employees exercised 2,000 share options granted in 2008. When the options
were granted, each option entitled the employees to purchase 1 ordinary share for
P50 per share. The share price on the date of grant was also P50 per share. Kalan
issued new shares to the employees.

May 01 Kalan declared a 10% share dividend to be distributed on June 01 to


Shareholders of record on May 07. The market price of the ordinary share was
P50 per share on May 01.

shares costing P15,000 that had been on hand since the beginning of the year.
The selling price was P57 per share.

Sept. 15 The semiannual cash dividend on ordinary shares was declared, amounting to
P0.15 per share. Kalan also declared the yearly dividend on preference shares.
Both are payable on October 15 to shareholders of record on October 01.

The Columnar method is recommended in solving this kind of problem. Although, preparing
journal entries and T-accounts are also useful, the columnar method presents a simpler solution and
helps improve speed in solving such problem.

Alternative solution: Prepare T-accounts for each component of Equity. Place the balances as of
January 1, 2014, journalize the transactions affecting the equity accounts, post the entries to the affected
accounts, then extract the balances.

ILLUSTRATIVE AUDIT CASE 8.2 - Analysis of Share and Dividend Transactions

In connection with your audit of the Puru Company, you were asked to prepare comparative data
from the company’s inception to the present. The following were gathered during your audit:

a. Puru Company’s charter became effective on January 2, 2010, when 80,000, P10 par value,
ordinary shares and 40,000, 5% cumulative nonparticipating, preference shares were issued. The
ordinary share was sold at P12 per share and the preference share was sold at its par value of
P100 per share.

Auditing Problems
174
Substantive Tests of Owners’ Equity Accounts S.Y. 2013-2014

b. Puru was unable to pay preference dividends at the end of its first year. The owners of the
preference shares agreed to accept 2 ordinary shares for every 50 shares of preference shares
owned in discharge of the preference share dividends due on December 31, 2010. The shares
were issued on January 2, 2011. The fair value was P30 per share for the ordinary on the date of
issue.

c. Puru Company acquired all outstanding shares of Putu Corporation on May 1, 2012, in exchange
for 40,000 ordinary shares of Puru.

d. Puru split its ordinary shares 3 for 2 on January 1, 2013 and 2 for 1 on January 1, 2014.

e. Puru offered to convert 20% of the preference shares to ordinary on the basis of 2 ordinary shares
for 1 preference share. The offer was accepted, and the conversion was made on July 1, 2014.

f. No cash dividends were declared on ordinary shares until December 31, 2012. Cash dividends per
ordinary share were declare and paid as follows:

Recognition of dividend
Under IFRIC 17 “Distribution of noncash assets to owners” paragraph 10, the liability to pay
dividend shall be recognized when the dividend is appropriately authorized and is no longer at the
discretion of the entity, which is the date:

a. When the dividend is declared by management or the board of directors if the local jurisdiction
does not require further approval.
b. When the declaration of the dividend by management or the board of directors is approved by the
relevant authority, for example the shareholders, if the local jurisdiction requires such approval.
c. Simply stated, the liability for dividend must be recognized on the date of declaration.

ILLUSTRATIVE AUDIT CASE 8.3- Share Options

At the beginning of 2014, Santa grants share options to each of its 100 employees working in the
sales department. The share options will vest at the end of 2016, provided that the employees remain in
the entity’s employ, and provided that the volume of sales of a particular product increases by at least an
average of 5 per cent per year. If the volume of sales of the product increases by an average of between 5
per cent 10 per cent per year, each employee will receive 100 share options. If the volume of sales
increases by an average of between 10 per cent and 15 per cent each year, each employee will receive 200

Substantive Tests of Owners’ Equity Accounts S.Y. 2013-2014

share options. If the volume of sales increases by an average of 15 per cent or more, each employee will
receive 300 share options.

On grant date, Santa estimates that the share options have a fair value of P20 per option. Santa
also estimates that the volume of sales of the product will increase by an average between 10 per cent and
15 per cent per year. The entity also estimates, on the basis of weighted average probability that 19
percent of the employees will leave before the end of 2016.
By the end of 2014, seven employees have left and the entity still expects that a total of 19
employees will leave by the end of 2016. Product sales have increased by 12 per cent and the entity
expects this rate of increase to continue over the next 2 years.

By the end of 2015, a further six employees have left. The entity now expects only three more
employees will leave during 2016. Product sales have increased by 18 per cent. The entity now expects
that sales will average 15 per cent or more over the three-year period.
By the end of 2016, a further two employees have left. The entity’s sales have increased by an average of
16 percent over the three years.

Share Options are granted to officers and key employees to enable them to acquire shares of the
entity during a specified period upon fulfillment of certain conditions at a specified price.

Measurement of Compensation:
The compensation resulting from share options is measured following two methods namely:
1. Fair value method – This means that the compensation is equal to the fair value of the share
options on the date of grant.
a. This is the method mandated by PFRS 2.
2. Intrinsic value method – This means that the compensation is equal to the intrinsic value of the
share options. This intrinsic value is the “excess of the market value of the share over the option
price.”

Paragraph 24 of PFRS 2 provides that the intrinsic value method can be used only if the fair value of
the share option cannot be estimated reliably.

ILLUSTRATIVE AUDIT CASE 8.4- Share Options

An entity grants an employee the right to choose either 1,000 phantom shares (i.e., a right to a
cash payment equal to the value of 1,000 shares) or 1,200 shares with par value of P10 per share. The
grant is conditional upon the completion of three years’ service. If the employee chooses the share
alternative, the shares must be held for three years after vesting date.

At the grant date, the entity’s share price is P50 per share. At the end of years 1, 2 and 3, the share
price is P52, P55, and P60, respectively. The entity does not expect to pay dividends in the next three
years. After taking into account the effects of the post-vesting transfer restrictions, the entity estimates
that the grant date fair value of the share alternative is P48 per share.

At the end of year 3, the employee chooses:


Scenario 1: The cash alternative
Scenario 2: The share alternative

Required:

Based on the above and the result of the audit, determine the following:

For share-based payment transactions in which the terms of the arrangement provide either the
entity or the counterparty with the choice of whether the entity settles the transaction in cash (or other
assets) or by issuing equity instruments, the entity shall account for that transaction, or the components of
that transaction, as a cash-settled share-based payment transaction if, and to the extent that, the entity
has incurred a liability to settle in cash or other assets, or as an equity settled share-based payment
transaction if, and to the extent that, no such liability has been incurred. (PFRS 2 par. 34)
If an entity has granted the counterparty the right to choose whether to a share-based payment
transaction is settled in cash or by issuing equity instruments, the entity has granted a compound
financial instrument, which includes a debt component and an equity component (PFRS 2 par. 35)

The entity shall account separately for the goods or services received or acquired in respect of
each component of the compound financial instrument. For the debt component, the entity shall
recognized the goods or services acquired, and a liability to pay for those goods or services, as the
counterparty supplies goods or render service, in accordance with the requirements applying to cash
settled share based payment transactions. For the equity component, the entity shall recognize the goods
or services received, and an increase in equity, as the counterparty supplies goods or renders service, in
accordance with the requirements applying to equity-settled share-based payment transactions. (PFRS 2

The liquidation value is the amount which the preference shareholders normally receive upon the
liquidation of the corporation. The liquidation value may be more than the par value.

In the absence of a liquidation value, the preference shareholders shall receive an amount equal
to the par or stated value, unless there is a deficit in which case the preference shareholders would share
on pro rata basis with the ordinary shareholders.

The preference share may have a call price or redemption price but this is ignored for book value
computation.

The call price is the amount paid to preference shareholders upon the redemption of preference
share during the lifetime of the corporation.

The IAS term for retained earnings is “Accumulated Profits”. However, the retained earnings
account is used. The illustrative statement of financial position and statement of changes in equity in IAS
1 and IAS 8 still maintain the title “Retained Earnings”

Retained earnings are of two kinds, namely, unappropriated retained earnings and appropriated
retained earnings.

Unappropriated Retained Earnings represent the portion which is free and can be declared as
dividends to shareholders.

Appropriated Retained Earnings represent that portion which has been restricted and therefore
is not available for any dividend declaration.
When the retained earnings account has a debit balance, it is called a “deficit”. A deficit is not an asset
but a deduction from shareholders’ equity. The IAS term for deficit is “accumulated losses”.

ILLUSTRATIVE AUDIT CASE 9.4- Single Entry

Your audit of Caya Company disclosed that your client kept very limited records. Purchases of
merchandise were paid by check, but most other items were out of cash receipts. The company’s
collections were deposited weekly. No record was kept of cash in bank, nor was a record kept of sales.
Accounts receivable were recorded only by keeping a copy of the ticket, and this copy was given to the
customer when he paid his account.

On January 2, 2013, Caya started business and issued 108,000 ordinary shares with P 100 par, for
the following considerations.

Cash P 900,000
Building (useful life, 15 years) 8,100,000
Land 2,700,000
P 11,700,000

An analysis of the bank statements showed total deposits, including the original cash investment
of P 6,300,000. The balance in the bank statement on December 31, 2013 was P 450,000 but there were
checks amounting to P 90,000 dated in December but not paid by the bank until January 2014. Cash on
hand on December 31, 2013 was P225,000 including customers’ deposit of P135,000.

During the year, Caya Company borrowed P900,000 from the bank and repaid P225,000 and
P45,000 interest.

Disbursements paid in cash during the year were as follows:

Utilities P 180,000
Salaries 180,000
Supplies 360,000
Dividends 270,000
P 990,000

An inventory of merchandise taken on December 31, 2013 showed P 1,359,000 of merchandise.


Tickets for accounts receivable totaled P 1,620,000 but P90, 000 of that amount may prove uncollectible.
Unpaid suppliers invoices for merchandise amounted to P630,000.

Equipment with a cash price of P720,000 was purchased in early January on a one-year
installment basis. During the year, checks for the down payment and all maturing installments totaled
P801,000. The equipment has a useful life of 5 years.

SOLUTION: Illustrative Audit Case 9.5

Non-counterbalancing errors are errors which, if not detected, are not automatically
counterbalanced or corrected in the next accounting period. In other words, if the net income of one year
is understated or overstated, the net income of subsequent year is not affected. The effects of these errors
are:
a. The income statement of the period in which the error is committed is incorrect but the
succeeding income statement is not affected.
b. The statement of financial position of the year of error and succeeding statement of financial
position are incorrect until the error is corrected.

The best example of a non-counterbalancing error is the misstatement of depreciation.

Decrease in income tax payable (P132,000 – P147,000) ( 15,000)
Net cash provided by operating activities P 153,000

Key principles for the preparation of statement of cash flows:

● operating activities are the main revenue-producing activities of the enterprise that are not
investing or financial activities, so operating cash flows include cash received from costumers
and cash paid to suppliers and employees.
● investing activities are the acquisition and disposal of long-term assets and other investments that
are not considered to be cash equivalents

● financial activities are the activities that alter the equity capital and borrowing structure of the
enterprise

● interest and dividends received and paid may be classified as operating, investing, or financial
cash flows, provide that they are classified consistently from period to period
Interest paid – usually operating; alternatively financing
Interest received – usually operating; alternatively investing
Dividends received – usually operating; alternatively investing
Dividends paid – usually financing; alternatively operating

● cash flows arising from taxes on income are normally classified as operating, unless they can be
specifically identified with financing or investing activities

● for operating cash flows, the direct method of the presentation is encouraged, but the indirect
method is acceptable

The direct method shows each major class of gross cash receipts and gross cash payments.

The indirect method adjusts accrual basis net profit or loss for the effects og non-cash
transactions.

● investing and financing transactions which do not require the use of cash should be excluded
from the cash flow statement, but they should be separately disclosed elsewhere in the financial
statement

● the components of cash and cash equivalents should be disclosed, and a reconciliation presented
to amounts reported in the statement of financial position

● the amount of cash and cash equivalents held by the enterprise that is not available for use by the
group should be disclosed, together with the commentary by management

ILLUSTRATIVE AUDIT CASE 10.3-Cash Flows From Operating Activities: Indirect Method

BURUNDI COMPANY’s Income statement for the year ended December 31, 2013, reported net
income of P478,800. In preparing the statement of cash flows, the accountant noted the following
transactions during 2013 that might affect cash flow from operating activities:

1. Burundi purchased 300 treasury shares at a cost of P20 per share. These shares were then resold
at P25 per share.

2. Burundi sold 300 of Loleng ordinary shares at P200 per share. The acquisition of these shares
was P145 per share. The investment was shown as an available-for-sale security on Burundi’s
statement of financial position at December 31, 2012.

3. Burundi changed from the straight-line method to the double declining-balance method of
depreciation for its machinery. The cumulative effect of the change was P43,800.

4. Burundi revised its estimate for bad debts. Prior to 2013, Burundi’s bad debt expense was 1% of
its net sales. In 2013, this rate was increased to 2%. Net sales for 2013 were P1,500,000 and net
accounts receivable decreased by P36,000 during 2013.

5. Burundi issued 1,500 ordinary shares of its P10 par ordinary shares for a patent. The ordinary
shares had a market value of P23 per share on the transaction date.

PAS 29 Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies does not establish an absolute at


which hyperinflation is deemed to arise. It is a matter of judgment when restatement of financial
statements in accordance with PAS 29 becomes necessary. Hyperinflation is indicated by characteristics
of the economic environment of a country which include, but are not limited to, the following:

(a) the general population prefers to keep its wealth in non-monetary assets or in a relatively stable
foreign currency. Amounts of local currency held are immediately invested to maintain
purchasing power;

Auditing Problems
212
Substantive Tests of Financial Statements S.Y. 2013-2014

(b) the general population regards monetary amounts not in terms of the local currency but in terms
of a relatively foreign currency. Prices may be quoted in that currency;

(c) sales and purchases on credit take place at prices that compensate for the expected loss of
purchasing power during the credit period, even if the period is short;

(d) interest rates, wages and prices are linked to a price index; and

(e) the cumulative inflation rate over three years is approaching, or exceeds, 100%.

Restatement of financial statements

Statement of financial position amounts not already expressed in terms of the measuring unit
current at the end of the reporting period are restated by applying a general price index.

Monetary items are not restated because they are already expressed in terms of the monetary unit
current at the end of the reporting period.

Some non-monetary items are carried at amounts current at the end of the reporting period, such
as net realizable value and fair value, so they are not restated. All other non-monetary assets and
liabilities are restated.

Most non-monetary items are carried at cost or cost less depreciation; hence they are expressed
at amounts current at their date of acquisition. The restated cost, or cost less depreciation, of each item is
determined by applying to its historical cost and accumulated depreciation the change in a general price
index from the date of acquisition to the end of the reporting period. Hence, property, plant and
equipment, investments, inventories of raw materials and merchandise, goodwill, patents, trademarks and
similar assets are restated from the dates of their purchase. Inventories of partly-finished and finished
goods are restated from the dates on which the costs of purchase and conversion were incurred.

At the beginning of the first period of application of PAS 29, the components of owner’s equity,
except retained earnings and any revaluation surplus that arose in previous periods is eliminated.
Restated retained earnings are derived from all the other amounts in the restated statement of financial
position.

SOLUTION: Illustrative Audit Case 10.8

Requirement 1

Unrealized loss on decline in value of available for sale securities 500,000
Adjustment of profit of prior year net-debit 2,000,000
Exchange differences gain on translating foreign operations ( 4,500,000)
Realized revaluation surplus 1,000,000)

Adjusted profit 7,000,000
Total comprehensive income 11,000,000

PAS 16 par. 41 states that transfers from revaluation surplus to retained earnings are not made
through profit or loss. Therefore the realized surplus is not a reclassification adjustment since it will be
credited directly to retained earnings and therefore not a component of other comprehensive income.
