INTERIMFINANCIAL REPORTING
SM 1. ABC Ltd. presents interim financial report quarterly. On 1.4.20X1, ABC Ltd. has carried forward loss of `
600 lakhs for income-tax purpose for which deferred tax asset has not been recognized. ABC Ltd. earns `
900 lakhs in each quarter ending on 30.6.20X1, 30.9.20X1, 31.12.20X1 and 31.3.20X2 excluding the
carried forward loss. Income-tax rate is expected to be 40%. Calculatethe amount of tax expense to be
reported in each quarter. [SM 2021, Ill.-2]
Ans.
Amount of income tax expense reported in each quarter would be as below:
The estimated payment of the annual tax on earnings for the current year:
` 3,000* x 40 / 100 = ` 1,200 lakhs.
*(3,600 lakhs - ` 600 lakhs) = ` 3,000 lakhs
Average annual effective tax rate = (1,200 / 3,600) × 100 = 33.33%
Tax expense to be shown in each quarter = 900 x 33.33% = ` 300 lakhs
SM 2. Innovative Corporation Private Limited (or ‚ICPL‛) is dealing in seasonal product and the salespattern of
the product, quarter wise is as under during the financial year 20X1-20X2:
Qtr. I Qtr. II Qtr. III Qtr. IV
ending 30 June ending 30 September ending 31 December ending 31 March
10% 10% 60% 20%
For the first quarter ending on 30 June, 20X1, ICPL has provided the following information :
Particulars Amounts
(in crore)
Sales 70
Employees benefits expenses 25
Administrative and other expenses 12
Finance cost 4
ICPL while preparing interim financial report for first quarter wants to defer ` 16 crores expenditureto
third quarter on the argument that third quarter is having more sales therefore third quartershould be
debited by more expenditure. Considering the seasonal nature of business and that theexpenditures are
uniform throughout all quarters
Calculate the result of first quarter as per Ind AS 34 and comment on the company’s view.
[SM 2021, Ill.-3]
Ans.
Result of the first quarter ending 30 June
Particulars Amounts (in crore)
Sales 70
Total Revenue (A) 70
Less: Employees benefits expenses (25)
Administrative and other expenses (12)
Finance cost (4)
Total Expense (B) (41)
Profit (A-B) 29
Note- As per Ind AS 34, the income and expense should be recognized when they are earned andincurred
respectively. Seasonal incomes will be recognized when they occur. Therefore, theargument of ICPL is
not correct considering the principles of Ind AS 34.
SM 3. Fixed production overheads for the financial year is ` 10,000. Normal expected production for the year,
after considering planned maintenance and normal breakdown, also considering the future demand of
the product is 2,000 MT. It is considered that there are no quarterly / seasonal variations. Therefore,
the normal expected production for each quarter is 500 MT and the fixed production overheads for the
quarter are ` 2,500.
Actual production achieved Quantity (In MT)
First quarter 400
Second quarter 600
Third quarter 500
Fourth quarter 400
Total 1,900
Presuming that there are no quarterly / seasonal variation, calculate the allocation of fixedproduction
overheads for all the four quarters as per Ind AS 34 read with Ind AS 2. [SM 2021, Ill.-4]
Ans.
If it is considered that there is no quarterly / seasonal variation, therefore normal expectedproduction
for each quarter is 500 MT and fixed production overheads for the quarter are` 2,500 .
Fixed production overhead to be allocated per unit of production in every quarter will be ` 5 perMT
(Fixed overheads / Normal production).
Quarters Quarters
First Quarter Actual fixed production overheads = ` 2,500
Fixed production overheads based on the allocation rate of ` 5 perunit
allocated to actual production = ` 5 x 400 = ` 2,000
Unallocated fixed production overheads to be charged as expense asper Ind
AS 2 and consequently as per Ind AS 34 = ` 500
Second Quarter Actual fixed production overheads on year-to-date basis = ` 5,000
Fixed production overheads to be absorbed on year -to-date basis = 1,000 x `
5 = ` 5,000
Earlier, ` 500 was not allocated to production in the 1st quarter. To give effect
to the entire ` 5,000 to be allocated in the second quarter, as per Ind AS 34, `
500 are reversed by way of a credit to the statement of profit and loss of the
2nd quarter.
Third Quarter Actual production overheads on year-to-date basis = ` 7,500
Fixed production overheads to be allocated on year -to-date basis = 1,500 x 5
= ` 7,500
There is no under or over recovery of allocated overheads. Hence, no further
action is reuired.
Fourth Quarter Actual fixed production overheads on year-to-date basis= ` 10,000
Fixed production overheads to be allocated on year-to-date basis 1,900 x 5 = `
9,500
` 500, i.e., [` 2,500 ” (` 5 x 400)] unallocated fixed production overheads in the
4th quarter, are to be expensed off as per the principles of Ind AS 2 and Ind
AS 34 by way of a charge to the statement of profit and loss.
Unallocated productions overheads for the year ` 500 (i.e` 10,000 ” ` 9,500)
are expensed in the Statement of profit and loss as per Ind AS 2.
The cumulative result of all the quarters would also result in unallocated overheads of ` 500,
thus,meeting the requirements of Ind AS 34 that the quarterly results should not affect
themeasurement of the annual results.

SM 4. ABC Limited manufactures automobile parts. ABC Limited has shown a net profit of ` 20,00,000for the
third quarter of 20X1.
Following adjustments are made while computing the net profit:
(i) Bad debts of ` 1,00,000 incurred during the quarter. 50% of the bad debts have beendeferred to
the next quarter.
(ii) Additional depreciation of ` 4,50,000 resulting from the change in the method of depreciation.
(iii) Exceptional loss of ` 28,000 incurred during the third quarter. 50% of exceptional loss havebeen
deferred to next quarter.
(iv) ` 5,00,000 expenditure on account of administrative expenses pertaining to the third quarteris
deferred on the argument that the fourth quarter will have more sales; therefore fourthquarter
should be debited by higher expenditure. The expenditures are uniform throughout allquarters.
Ascertain the correct net profit to be shown in the Interim Financial Report of third quarter to
bepresented to the Board of Directors. [SM 2021, Ill.-5 Modified]
Ans.
In the instant case, the quarterly net profit has not been correctly stated. As per Ind AS 34, Interim
Financial Reporting, the quarterly net profit should be adjusted and restated as follows:
(i) The treatment of bad debts is not correct as the expenses incurred during an inter
imreportingperiod should be recognised in the same period. Accordingly, ` 50,000 should be
deductedfrom ` 20,00,000.
(ii) Recognising additional depreciation of ` 4,50,000 in the same quarter is correct and is intune
with Ind AS 34.
(iii) Treatment of exceptional loss is not as per the principles of Ind AS 34, as the entire amountof `
28,000 incurred during the third quarter should be recognized in the same quarter.Hence `
14,000 which was deferred should be deducted from the profits of third quarter only.
(iv) As per Ind AS 34 the income and expense should be recognised when they are earned
andincurred respectively. As per para 39 of Ind AS 34, the costs should be anticipated ordeferred
only when:
(i) it is appropriate to anticipate or defer that type of cost at the end of the financial
year,and
(ii) costs are incurred unevenly during the financial year of an enterprise.
Therefore, the treatment done relating to deferment of ` 5,00,000 is not correct asexpenditures
are uniform throughout all quarters.
Thus considering the above, the correct net profits to be shown in Interim Financial Report of thethird
quarter shall be ` 14,36,000 (` 20,00,000 -` 50,000 - ` 14,000 - ` 5,00,000).
SM 5. An entity reports quarterly, earns ` 1,50,000 pre-tax profit in the first quarter but expects to incur losses
of ` 50,000 in each of the three remaining quarters. The entity operates in a jurisdiction in which its
estimated average annual income tax rate is 30%. The management believes that since the entity has
zero income for the year, its income ”tax expense for the year will be zero. State whether the
management’s views are correct or not? If not, then calculate the tax expense for each quarter as well as
for the year as perInd AS 34. [SM 2021, TYK-3 Modified]
Ans.
As illustrated in para 30 (c) of Ind AS 34 ‘Interim financial reporting’, income tax expense isrecognised in
each interim period based on the best estimate of the weighted averageannual income tax rate
expected for the full financial year.Accordingly, the management’s contention that since the net income
for the year will be zerono income tax expense shall be charged quarterly in the interim financial report,
is notcorrect. Since the effective tax rate or average annual income tax rate is already given in
thequestion as 30%, the income tax expense will be recognised in each interim quarter basedon this rate
only. The following table shows the correct income tax expense to be reportedeach quarter in
accordance with Ind AS 34:
Period Pre-tax earnings (in `) Effective tax rate Tax expense (in `)
First Quarter 1,50,000 30% 45,000
Second Quarter (50,000) 30% (15,000)
Third Quarter (50,000) 30% (15,000)
Fourth Quarter (50,000) 30% (15,000)

STATEMENTOF CASH FLOWS
SM 1. An entity has entered into a factoring arrangement and received money from the factor.Examine the
said transaction and state how should it be presented in the statement of cashflows?
[SM 2021, Ill.-5]
Ans.
Under factoring arrangement, it needs to be assessed whether the arrangement is recourse ornon-
recourse.
Recourse factoring:
The cash received is classified as a financing cash inflow as the entity continues to recognize
thereceivables and the amount received from the factor is indeed a liability, The substance of
thearrangement is financing, as the entity retains substantially all of the risk and rewards of thefactored
receivables.
When the cash is collected by the factor, the liability and the receivables are de-recognized. It
isacceptable for this to be disclosed as a non-cash transaction, because the settlement of theliability and
the factored receivables does not result in cash flows. The net impact of thesetransactions on the cash
flow statement is to present a cash inflow from financing, but there is nooperating cash flow from the
original sale to the entity‘s customers.
Non-recourse factoring:
Where an entity de-recognises the factored receivables and receives cash from the factor, thecash
receipt is classified as an operating cash inflow. This is because the entity has received cashin exchange
for receivables that arose from its operating activities.
SM 2. The relevant extracts of consolidated financial statements of A Ltd. are provided below:

consideration of `8,00,000.
Advise how the above transactions will be disclosed/presented in the statement of cash flowsas per Ind
AS 7. [SM 2021, TYK-4]
Ans.
As per para 39 of Ind AS 7, the aggregate cash flows arising from obtaining control ofsubsidiary shall be
presented separately and classified as investing activities.
As per para 42 of Ind AS 7, the aggregate amount of the cash paid or received asconsideration for
obtaining subsidiaries is reported in the statement of cash flows net of cashand cash equivalents
acquired or disposed of as part of such transactions, events or changesin circumstances.
Further, investing and financing transactions that do not require the use of cash or cashequivalents shall
be excluded from a statement of cash flows. Such transactions shall bedisclosed elsewhere in the
financial statements in a way that provides all the relevantinformation about these investing and
financing activities.
As per para 42A of Ind AS 7, cash flows arising from changes in ownership interests in asubsidiary that do
not result in a loss of control shall be classified as cash flows fromfinancing activities, unless the
subsidiary is held by an investment entity, as defined inInd AS 110, and is required to be measured at fair
value through profit or loss. Suchtransactions are accounted for as equity transactions and accordingly,
the resulting cashflows are classified in the same way as other transactions with owners.
Considering the above, for the financial year ended March 31, 20X2 total consideration of` 15,00,000 less
` 250,000 will be shown under investing activities as ‚Acquisition of thesubsidiary (net of cash acquired)”.
There will not be any impact of issuance of equity shares as consideration in the cash flowstatement
however a proper disclosure shall be given elsewhere in the financial statements ina way that provides
all the relevant information about the issuance of equity shares for non -cash consideration.

REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
SM 1. Contractor P enters into a manufacturing contract to produce 100 specialised CCTV Cameras for
Customer Q for a fixed price of ` 1,000 per sensor. Customer Q can cancel the contract without a penalty
after receiving 10 CCTV Cameras. Specify the contract units. [SM 2021, Ill.-3]
Ans.
P determines that because there is no substantive compensation amount payable by Q on termination of
the contract ” i.e. no termination penalty in the contract ” it is akin to a contract to produce 10 CCTV
Cameras that gives Customer Q an option to purchase an additional 90 CCTV Cameras. Hence, contract is
for 10 units.
SM 2. Software Company S enters into a contract to license its customer relationship management
software to Customer B. Three days later, in a separate contract, S agrees to provide consulting services
to significantly customise the licensed software to functio n in B’s IT environment. B is unable to use the
software until the customisation services are complete.
Would these contracts be combined? [SM 2021, Ill.-5]
Ans.
S determines that the two contracts should be combined because they were entered into at nearly the
same time with the same customer, and the goods or services in the contracts are a single performance
obligation.
SM 3. Manufacturer M enters into a contract to manufacture and sell a cyber security system to Government-
related Entity P. One week later, in a separate contract, M enters into a contract to sell the same system
to Government-related Entity Q. Both entities are controlled by the same government. During the
negotiations, M agrees to sell the systems at a deep di scount if both P and Q purchases the security
system.
Should these contracts be combined or separately accounted? [SM 2021, Ill.-6]
Ans.
M concludes that the said two contracts should be combined because, among other things, P is a related
party of Q, the contracts were entered into at nearly the same time and the contracts were negotiated
as a single commercial package, which is clearly evident from the fact that discount is being offered if
both the parties purchases the security system , thereby also making the consideration in one
contract dependent on the other contract.
SM 4. Telco T Ltd. enters into a two-year contract for internet services with Customer C. C also buys a modem
and a router from T Ltd. and obtains title to the equipment. T Ltd. does not require customers to
purchase its modems and routers and will provide internet services to customers using other equipment
that is compatible with T Ltd.’s network. There is a secondary market in which modems and routers can
be bought or sold for amounts greater than scrap value.
Determine how many performance obligations does the entity T Ltd. have? [SM 2021, Ill.-17]
Ans.
T Ltd. concludes that the modem and router are each distinct and that the arrangement includes three
performance obligations (the modem, the router and the internet services) based on the following
evaluation:
Criterion 1: Capable of being distinct
C can benefit from the modem and router on their own because they can be resold for more than
scrap value.
C can benefit from the internet services in conjunction with readily available resources ” i.e.
either the modem and router are already delivered at the time of contract set - up, they could be

SM 5. V Ltd. grants Customer C a three-year licence for anti-virus software. Under the contract, V Ltd. promises
to provide C with when-and-if-available updates to that software during the licence period. The
updates are critical to the continued use of the anti -virus software.
Determine how many performance obligations does the entity have? [SM 2021, Ill.-18]
Ans.
V Ltd. concludes that the licence and the updates are capable of being distinct because the anti - virus
software can still deliver its original functionality during the licence period without the updates. C
can also benefit from the updates together with the licence transferred when the contract is
signed.
However, V Ltd. concludes that the licence and the updates are not separately identifiable
because the software and the service are inputs into a combined item in the contract − i.e. the nature of
V Ltd.‘s promise is to provide continuous anti -virus protection for the term of the contract. Therefore, V
Ltd. accounts for the licence and the updates as a single performance obligation.
SM 6. Media Company P Ltd. offers magazine subscriptions to customers. When customers subscribe, they
receive a printed copy of the magazine each month and access to the magazine’s online content.
Determine how many performance obligations does the entity have? [SM 2021, Ill.-19]
Ans.
P evaluates whether the promises to provide printed copies and online access are separate performance
obligations. P determines that the arrangement includes two performance obligations for the following
reasons:
The printed copies and online access are both capable of being distinct because the customer could
use them on their own.
The printed copies and online access are distinct within the context of the contractbecause
they are different formats so they do not significantly customise or modify each other, nor is there
any transformative relationship into a single output.

SM 9. Entity sells gym memberships for ` 7,500 per year to 100 customers, with an option to renew at a
discount in 2nd and 3rd years at ` 6,000 per year. Entity estimates an annual attrition rate of 50% each
year.
Determine the amount of revenue to be recognised in the first year and the amount of contract liability
against the option given to the customer for renewing the membership at discount. [SM 2021, Ill.-22]
Ans.
Allocated price per unit (year) is calculated as follows:
Total estimated memberships is 175 members (Year 1 = 100; Year 2 = 50; Year 3 = 25) = 175
Total consideration is ` 12,00,000 {(100 x 7,500) + (50 x 6,000) + (25 x 6,000)} Allocated price per
membership is ` 6,857 approx. (12,00,000 / 175)
Basis on above, it is to be noted that although entity has collected ` 7,500 but revenue can be recognised
at ` 6,857 approx. per membership and remaining ` 643 should be recorded as contract liability
against option given to customer for renewing their membership at discount.
SM 10. Company D Ltd. provides advertising services to customers. D Ltd. enters into a sub-contract with a
multinational online video sharing company, F Ltd. Under the sub-contract, F Ltd. places all of D Ltd.’s
customers’ adverts.
D Ltd. notes the following:
D Ltd. works directly with customers to understand their advertising needs before placing adverts.
D Ltd. is responsible for ensuring that the advert meets the customer’s needs after the advertis
placed.
D Ltd. directs F Ltd. over which advert to place and when to place it.
D Ltd. does not bear inventory risk because there is no minimum purchase requirement withF Ltd.
D Ltd. does not have discretion in setting the price because fees are charged based on F Ltd.’s
scheduled rates.
D is Principal or an agent? [SM 2021, Ill.-27]
Ans.
D Ltd. is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide advertising services. Although F Ltd.
delivers the placement service, D Ltd. directly works with customers to ensure that the services
are performed to their requirements. Even though D Ltd. does not bear inventory risk and does not have
discretion in setting the price, it controls the advertising services before they are provided to the
customer. Therefore, D Ltd. is a principal in this case.
SM 11. Warranty
An entity manufactures and sells computers that include an assurance-type warranty for the first90 days.
The entity offers an optional ‘extended coverage’ plan under which it will repair or replace any defective
part for three years from the expiration of the assurance -type warranty. Since the optional ‘extended
coverage’ plan is sold separately, the entity determines that the three years of extended coverage
represent a separate performance obligation (i.e. a service -type warranty). The total transaction price
for the sale of a computer and th e extended warranty is ` 36,000. The entity determines that the stand -
alone selling prices of the computer and the extended warranty are ` 32,000 and ` 4,000, respectively.
The inventory value of the computer is ` 14,400. Furthermore, the entity estimates that, based on its
experience, it will incur ` 2,000 in costs to repair defects that arise within the 90 -day coverage period
for the assurance -type warranty.
Pass required journal entries. [SM 2021, Ill.-35]
Ans.
The entity will record the following journal entries:

(To derecognise inventory and recognise cost of goods sold)
The entity derecognises the accrued warranty liability associated with the assurance -type warranty as
actual warranty costs are incurred during the first 90 days after the customer receives the computer.
The entity recognises the contract liability associated with the service-type warranty as revenue during
the contract warranty period and recognises the costs associated with providing the service-type
warranty as they are incurred. The entity had to determine whether the repair costs incurred are
applied against the warranty reserve already established for claims that occur during the first 90 days or
recognised as an expense as incurred.

Entity sells 100 ultra-life batteries for ` 2,000 each and provides the customer with a five -year guarantee
that the batteries will withstand the elements and continue to perform to specifications. The entity,
which normally provides a one-year guarantee to customer purchasing ultra -life batteries,
determines that years two through five represent a separate performance obligation. The entity
determines that ` 1,70,000 of the ` 2,00,000 transaction price should be allocated to the batteries and `
30,000 to the service warranty (based on estimated stand -alone selling prices and a relative selling price
allocation). The entity’s normal one -year warranty cost is ` 1 per battery.

G Ltd. concludes that this is a change in the transaction price and not a variable consideration. Since, the
credit does not relate to a satisfied performance obligation, the change in transaction price resulting
from the credit is accounted for as a contract modification and recognised over the
remaining term of the contract. If, in this example, rather than providing a one-time credit, G Ltd.
granted a discount of ` 5 per month for the remaining contract term, then also G Ltd. would conclude
that it was a change in the transaction price. It would apply the contract modification guidance and
recognise the credit over the remaining term of the contract .

SM 17. An entity, a music record label, licenses to a customer a 1975 recording of a classical symphony by a
noted orchestra. The customer, a consumer products company, has the right to use the recorded
symphony in all commercials, including television, radio and online advertisements for two years in
Country A. In exchange for providing the licence, the entity receives fixed consideration of ` 50,000 per
month. The contract does not include any other goods or services to be provided by the entity. The
contract is non-cancellable.
Determine how the revenue will be recognised? [SM 2021, Ill.-69]
Ans.
The entity assesses the goods and services promised to the cu stomer to determine which goods and
services are distinct in accordance with paragraph 27 of Ind AS 115. The entity concludes that its only
performance obligation is to grant the licence. The entity does not have any contractual or implied
obligations to change the licensed recording. The licensed recording has significant stand-alone
functionality (i.e. the ability to be played) and, therefore, the ability of the customer to obtain the
benefits of the recording is not substantially derived from the entity‘s ongoing activities. The
entity therefore determines that the contract does not require, and the customer does not reasonably
expect, the entity to undertake activities that significantly affect the licensed recording. Consequently,
the entity concludes that the nature of its promise in transferring the licence is to provide the customer
with a right to use the entity‘s intellectual property as it exists at the point in time that it is granted.
Therefore, the promise to grant the licence is a performance obligation satisfied at a point in time. The
entity recognises all of the revenue at the point in time when the customer can direct the use of, and
obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from, the licensed intellectual property.
SM 19. Assessing the nature of a film licence and the effect of marketing activities
Film Studio C grants a licence to Customer D to show a completed film. C plans to undertake significant
marketing activities that it expects will affect box office receipts for the film. The marketing
activities will not change the functionality of the film, but they could affect its value.
Determine the nature of license. [SM 2021, Ill.-71]
Ans.
C would probably conclude that the licence provides a right to use its IP and, therefore, is
transferred at a point in time. There is no expectation that C will undertake activities to change the form
or functionality of the film. Because the IP has significant stand -alone functionality, C‘s marketing
activities do not significantly affect D‘s ability to obtain benefit from the film, nor do they affect the IP
available to D.

SM 22. An entity G Ltd. enters into a contract with a customer P Ltd. for the sale of a machinery for `20,00,000.
P Ltd. intends to use the said machinery to start a food processing unit. The food processing industry is
highly competitive and P Ltd. has very little experience in the said industry.
P Ltd. pays a non-refundable deposit of `1,00,000 at inception of the contract and enters into a long-
term financing agreement with G Ltd. for the remaining 95 per cent of the agreed consideration which it
intends to pay primarily from income derived from its food processing unit as it lacks any other major
source of income. The financing arrangement is provided on a non-recourse basis, which means that if P
Ltd. defaults then G Ltd. can repossess the machinery but cannot seek further compensation from P Ltd.,
even if the full value of the amount owed is not recovered from the machinery. The cost of the
machinery for G Ltd. is` 12,00,000. P Ltd. obtains control of the machinery at contract inception.
When should G Ltd. recognise revenue from sale of machinery to P Ltd. in accordance with Ind AS 115?
[SM 2021, TYK-4]
Ans.
As per paragraph 9 of Ind AS 115, ―An entity shall account for a contract with a customer that is within
the scope of this Standard only when all of the following criteria are met:
(a) the parties to the contract have approved the contract (in writing, orally or in accordance with
other customary business practices) and are committed to perform their respective obligations;
(b) the entity can identify each party‘s rights regarding the goods or services to
betransferred;
(c) the entity can identify the payment terms for the goods or services to be transferred;
(d) the contract has commercial substance (ie the risk, timing or amount of the entity‘sfuture cash
flows is expected to change as a result of the contract); and
(e) it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange
for the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer. In evaluating whether
collectability of an amount of consideration is probable, an entity shall consider only the
customer‘s ability and intention to pay that amount of consideration when it is due. The amount
of consideration to which the entity will be entitled may be less than the price stated in the
contract if the consideration is variable because the entity may offer the customer a price
concession‖.
Paragraph 9(e) above, requires that for revenue to be recognised, it should be probable that the entity
will collect the consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for the goods or services that will be
transferred to the customer. In the given case, it is not probable that G Ltd. will collect the consideration
to which it is entitled in exchange for the transfer of the machinery. P Ltd.‘s ability to pay may be
uncertain due to the following reasons:
(a) P Ltd. intends to pay the remaining consideration ( which has a significant balance) primarily
from income derived from its food processing unit (which is a business involving significant
risk because of high competition in the said industry and P Ltd.'s little experience);
(b) P Ltd. lacks sources of other income or assets that could be used to repay the balance
consideration; and
(c) P Ltd.'s liability is limited because the financing arrangement is provided on a non - recourse
basis.
In accordance with the above, the criteria in paragraph 9 of Ind AS 115 are not met.
Further, para 15 states that when a contract with a customer does not meet the criteria in paragraph 9
and an entity receives consideration from the customer, the entity shall recognise the consideration
received as revenue only when either of the following events has occurred:
(a) the entity has no remaining obligations to transfer goods or services to the customer and all, or
substantially all, of the consideration promised by the customer has been received by the entity
and is non-refundable; or
(b) the contract has been terminated and the consideration received from the customer is non-
refundable.
Para 16 states that an entity shall recognise the consideration received from a customer as a liability
until one of the events in paragraph 15 o ccurs or until the criteria in paragraph 9 are subsequently met.
Depending on the facts and circumstances relating to the contract, the liability recognised represents
the entity‘s obligation to either transfer goods or services in the future or refund the consideration
received. In either case, the liability shall be measured at the amount of consideration received from the
customer.
In accordance with the above, in the given case G Ltd. should account for the non -refundable deposit of
` 1,00,000 payment as a deposit liability as none of the events described in paragraph 15 have
occurred„that is, neither the entity has received substantially all of the consideration nor it has
terminated the contract. Consequently, in accordance with paragraph16, G Ltd. will continue to account
for the initial deposit as well as any future payments of principal and interest as a deposit liability until
the criteria in paragraph 9 are met (i.e. the entity is able to conclude that it is probable that the entity
will collect the consideration) or one of the events in paragraph 15 has occurred. Further, G Ltd. will
continue to assess the contract in accordance with paragraph 14 to determine whether the criteria in
paragraph 9 are subsequently met or whether the events in paragraph 15 of Ind AS 115 have occurred.
SM 23. Entity I sells a piece of machinery to the customer for ` 2 million, payable in 90 days. Entity I is aware at
contract inception that the customer might not pay the full contract price. Entity I estimates that the
customer will pay atleast` 1.75 million, which is sufficient to cover entity I's cost of sales (` 1.5 million)
and which entity I is willing to accept because it wants to grow its presence in this market. Entity I has
granted similar price concessions in comparable contracts.
Entity I concludes that it is highly probable that it will collect ` 1.75 million, and such amount is not
constrained under the variable consideration guidance.

Get the Best of FR By CA. SARTHAK NIRAJ JAIN| Video Lectures from www.elearn.fast.edu.in 23
Striker 3.2 – SM 2021 – Newly Added / Modified Questions Bank by CA SJ
Ans.
Entity I is likely to provide a price concession and accept an amount less than ` 2 million in exchange for
the machinery. The consideration is therefore variable. The transaction price in this arrangement is `
1.75 million, as this is the amount which entity I expects to receive after providing the concession and it
is not constrained under the variable consideration guidance. Entity I can also conclude that the
collectability threshold is met for ` 1.75 million and therefore contract exists.
SM 24. On 1 January 20X8, entity J enters into a one-year contract with a customer to deliver water treatment
chemicals. The contract stipulates that the price per container will be adjusted retroactively once the
customer reaches certain sales volume, defined, as follows:
Volume is determined based on sales during the calendar year. There are no minimum purchase
requirements. Entity J estimates that the total sales volume for the year will be 2.8 million containers,
based on its experience with similar contracts and forecasted sales to the customer.
Entity J sells 700,000 containers to the customer during the first quarter ended31st March
20X8 for a contract price of ` 100 per container. How should entity J determine the transaction price?
[SM 2021, TYK-6]
Ans.
The transaction price is ` 90 per container based on entity J's estimate of total sales volume for the year,
since the estimated cumulative sales volume of 2.8 million containers would result in a price per
container of ` 90. Entity J concludes that based on a transaction price of` 90 per container, it is highly
probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulativerevenue recognised will not occur when
the uncertainty is resolved. Revenue is therefore recognised at a selling price of ` 90 per container as
each container is sold. Entity J will recognise a liability for cash received in excess of the transaction
price for the first 1 millioncontainers sold at ` 100 per container (that is, ` 10 per container) until the
cumulative sales volume is reached for the next pricing tier and the price is retroactively reduced.
For the quarter ended 31st March, 20X8, entity J recognizes revenue of ` 63 million (700,000 containers
x ` 90) and a liability of ` 7 million [700,000 containers x (` 100 - ` 90)].
Entity J will update its estimate of the total sales volume at each reporting date until the uncertainty is
resolved.
SM 25. Entity K sells electric razors to retailers for C 50 per unit. A rebate coupon is included inside the electric
razor package that can be redeemed by the end consumers for C 10 per unit.
Entity K estimates that 20% to 25% of eligible rebates will be redeemed, based on its experience
with similar programmes and rebate redemption rates available in the market for similar programmes.
Entity K concludes that the transaction price should incorporate an assumption of 25% rebate
redemption, as this is the amount for which it is highly probable that a significant reversal of cumulative
revenue will not occur if estimates of the rebates change.
How should entity K determine the transaction price? [SM 2021, TYK-7]
Ans.
Entity K records sales to the retailer at a transaction price of ` 47.50 (` 50 less 25% of` 10). The
difference between the per unit cash selling price to the retailers and the transaction price is
recorded as a liability for cash consideration expected to be paid to the end customer. Entity K will
update its estimate of the rebate and the transaction price at each reporting date if estimates of re
demption rates change.
SM 26. A manufacturer enters into a contract to sell goods to a retailer for ` 1,000. The manufacturer
also offers price protection, whereby it will reimburse the retailer for any difference between the
sale price and the lowest price offered to any customer during the following six months. This clause is
consistent with other price protection clauses offered in the past, and the manufacturer believes that it
has experience which is predictive for this contract.
Management expects that it will offer a price decrease of 5% during the price protection period.
Management concludes that it is highly probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue will
not occur if estimates change.
How should the manufacturer determine the transaction price? [SM 2021, TYK-8]
Ans.
The transaction price is ` 950, because the expected reimbursement is ` 50. The expected payment to
the retailer is reflected in the transaction price at contract inception, as that is the amount of
consideration to which the ma nufacturer expects to be entitled after the price protection. The
manufacturer will recognise a liability for the difference between the invoice price and the transaction
price, as this represents the cash that it expects to refund to the retailer. The manufacturer will update
its estimate of expected reimbursement at each reporting date until the uncertainty is resolved.
SM 27. Electronics Manufacturer M sells 1,000 televisions to Retailer R for ` 50,00,000 (` 5,000 per television).

Striker 3.2 – SM 2021 – Newly Added / Modified Questions Bank by CA SJ
Ans.
Because there are only two possible outcomes under the contract, C determines that using the most
likely amount provides the best prediction of the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled. C
estimates the transaction price to be ` 1,30,000, which is the single most likely amount
SM 29. Franchisor Y Ltd. licenses the right to operate a store in a specified location to Franchisee F.The store
bears Y Ltd.‘s trade name and F will have a right to sell Y Ltd.‘s products for10 years. F pays an up-front
fixed fee. The franchise contract also requires Y Ltd. to maintain the brand through product
improvements, marketing campaigns etc. Determine the nature of license.
[SM 2021, TYK-11]
Ans.
The licence provides F access to the IP as it exists at any point in time in the licence period.This is
because:
Y Ltd. is required to maintain the brand, which will significantly affect the IP by affectingF‘s ability to
obtain benefit from the brand;
any action by Y Ltd. may have a direct positive or negative effect on F; and
these activities do not transfer a good o r service to F.
Therefore, Y Ltd. recognises the up-front fee over the 10-year franchise period.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND ERRORS
SM 1. A carpet retail outlet sells and fits carpets to the general public. It recognizes revenue when the carpet is
fitted, which on an average is six weeks after the purchase of the carpet.
It then decides to sub-contract the fitting of carpets to self-employed fitters. It now recognizes revenue
at the point-of-sale of the carpet.
Whether this change in recognising the revenue is a change in accounting policy as per the provision of
Ind AS 8? [SM 2021, TYK-1]
Ans.
This is not a change in accounting policy as the carpet retailer has changed the way that the carpets are
fitted.Therefore, there would be no need to retrospectively change prior period figures for revenue
recognized.
SM 2. When is an entity required to present a third balance sheet as at the beginning of the preceding period?
[SM 2021, TYK-2]
Ans.
As per paragraph 40A of Ind AS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, an entity shall present a third
balance sheet as at the beginning of the preceding period in addition to the minimum comparative
financial statements required by paragraph 38A of the standard if:
it applies an accounting policy retrospectively, makes a retrospective restatement of items in its
financial statements or reclassifies items in its financial statements; and
the retrospective application, retrospective restatement or the reclassification has a material effect
on the information in the balance sheet at the beginning of the preceding period
SM 3. Is change in the depreciation method for an item of property, plant and equipment a change in
accounting policy or a change in accounting estimate? [SM 2021, TYK-4]
Ans.
As Paragraphs 60 and 61 of Ind AS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment, the depreciation method used
shall reflect the pattern in which the asset‘s future economic benefits are expected to be consumed by
the entity. The depreciation method applied to an asset shall be reviewed at least at each financial year-
end and, if there has been a significant change in the expected pattern of consumption of the future
economic benefits embodied in the asset, the method shall be changed to reflect the changed pattern.
Such a change is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate in accordance with Ind AS 8.
As per the above, depreciation method for a depreciable asset has to reflect the expected pattern of
consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset. Determination of depreciation method
involves an accounting estimate and thus depreciation method is not a matter of an accounting policy.
Accordingly, Ind AS 16 requires a change in depreciation method to be accounted for as a change in an
accounting estimate, i.e., prospectively.

EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD
SM 1. 10. ABC Ltd. received a demand notice on 15th June, 20X2 for an additional amount of ` 28,00,000 from
the Excise Department on account of higher excise duty levied by the Excise Department compared to
the rate at which the company was creating provision and depositing the same in respect of transactions
related to financial year 20X1-20X2. The financial statements for the year 20X1-20X2 are approved on
10th August, 20X2. In July, 20X2, the company has appealed against the demand of ` 28,00,000 and the
company has expected that the demand would be settled at ` 15,00,000 only. Show how the above event
will have a bearing on the financial statements for the year 20X1-20X2. Whether these events are
adjusting or non-adjusting events and explain the treatment accordingly. [SM 2021, TYK-10]
Ans.
Ind AS 10 defines „Events after the Reporting Period‟ as follows:
Events after the reporting period are those events, favourable and unfavourable, that occur between the
end of the reporting period and the date when the financial statements are approved by the Board of
Directors in case of a company, and, by the corresponding approving authority in case of any other entity
for issue. Two types of events can be identified:
(a) those that provide evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period
(adjusting events after the reporting period); and
(b) those that are indicative of conditions that arose after the reporting period (non-adjusting
events after the reporting period)
In the instant case, the demand notice has been received on 15th June, 20X2, which is between the end
of the reporting period and the date of approval of financial statements. Therefore, it is an event after
the reporting period. This demand for additional amount has been raised because of higher rate of
excise duty levied by the Excise Department in respect of goods already manufactured during the
reporting period. Accordingly, condition exists on 31st March, 20X2, as the goods have been
manufactured during the reporting period on which additional excise duty has been levied and this event
has been confirmed by the receipt of demand notice. Therefore, it is an adjusting event.
In accordance with the principles of Ind AS 37, the company should make a provision in the financial
statements for the year 20X1-20X2, at best estimate of the expenditure to be incurred, i.e., ` 15,00,000.

SM 1. Discount Rate assessment to measure present value:
Investment 1 is a contractual right to receive ` 800 in 1 year. There is an established market for
comparable assets, and information about those assets, including price information, is available. Of those
comparable assets:
a. Investment 2 is a contractual right to receive ` 1,200 in 1 year and has a market price of ` 1,083.
b. Investment 3 is a contractual right to receive ` 700 in 2 years and has a market price of ` 566.
All three assets are comparable with respect to risk (that is, dispersion of possible payoffs and credit).
You are required to measure the fair value of Asset 1 basis above information. [SM 2021, Ill.-1]
Ans.
On the basis of the timing of the contractual payments to be received for Investment 1 relative to the
timing for Investment 2 and Investment 3 (that is, one year for Investment 2 versus two years for
Investment 3), Investment 2 is deemed more comparable to Investment 1. Using the contractual
payment to be received for Investment 1 (` 800) and the 1-year market rate derived from Investment 2,
the fair value of Investment 1 is calculated as under:
Investment 2 Fair Value ` 1,083
Contractual Cash flows in 1 year ` 1,200
IRR = ` 1,083 x (1 + r) = ` 1,200
= (1 + r) = (` 1,200 / ` 1,083) = 1.108
r = 1.108 ” 1 = 0.108 or 10.8%
Value of Investment 1 = ` 800 / 1.108 = ` 722
Alternatively, in the absence of available market information for Investment 2, the one-year market rate
could be derived from Investment 3 using the build-up approach. In that case, the 2-year market rate
indicated by Investment 3 would be adjusted to a 1-year market rate using the term structure of the risk-
free yield curve. Additional information and analysis might be required to determine whether the risk
premiums for one-year and two-year assets are the same. If it is determined that the risk premiums for
one-year and two-year assets are not the same, the two-year market rate of return would be further
adjusted for that effect.
The highest and best use of a non-financial asset takes into account the use of the asset that is
physically possible, legally permissible and financially feasible, as follows:
(a) A use that is physically possible takes into account the physical characteristics of the
asset that market participants would take into account when pricing the asset (eg the
location or size of a property).
(b) A use that is legally permissible takes into account any legal restrictions on the use of
the asset that market participants would take into account when pricing the asset (eg
the zoning regulations applicable to a property).
(c) A use that is financially feasible takes into account whether a use of the asset that is
physically possible and legally permissible generates adequate income or cash flows
(taking into account the costs of converting the asset to that use) to produce an
investment return that market participants would require from an investment in that
asset put to that use.
Highest and best use is determined from the perspective of market participants, even if the
entity intends a different use. However, an entity‘s current use of a non-financial asset is
presumed to be its highest and best use unless market or other factors suggest that a different
use by market participants would maximise the value of the asset.
To protect its competitive position, or for other reasons, an entity may intend not to use an
acquired non-financial asset actively or it may intend not to use the asset according to its highest
and best use. Nevertheless, the entity shall measure the fair value of a non-financial asset
assuming its highest and best use by market participants.
In the given case, the highest best possible use of the land is to develop a commercial complex.
Although developing a business complex is against the business objective of the entity, it does
not affect the basis of fair valuation as Ind AS 113 does not consider an entity specific restriction
for measuring the fair value.
Also, its current use as a parking lot is not the highest best use as the land has the potential of
being used for building a commercial complex.
Therefore, the fair value of the land is the price that would be received when sold to a market
participant who is interested in developing a commercial complex.
(ii) As per Ind AS 113, unobservable inputs shall be used to measure fair value to the extent that
relevant observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is
little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. The unobservable
inputs shall reflect the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or
liability, including assumptions about risk.
In the given case, DS Limited adopted discounted cash flow method, commonly used technique
to value shares, to fair value the shares of the private company as there wereno similar shares
traded in the market. Hence, it falls under Level 3 of fair value hierarchy.

ACCOUNTING FOR GOVERNMENT GRANTS AND DISCLOSUREOF GOVERNMENT ASSIST ANCE
SM 1. A Ltd. received a government grant of ` 10,00,000 to defray expenses for environmental protection.
Expected environmental costs to be incurred is ` 3,00,000 per annum for the next 5 years. How should A
Ltd. present such grant related to income in its financial statements?
[SM 2021, Ill.-9]
Ans.
As per paragraph 29 of Ind AS 20, Grants related to income are presented as part of profit or loss, either
separately or under a general heading such as „Other income‟; alternatively, they are deducted in
reporting the related expense.
In accordance with the above, presentation of grants related to income under both the methods are as
follows:
The supporters of this method are of the view that „the expenses might well not have been incurred by
the entity if the grant had not been available and presentation of the expense without offsetting the
grant may therefore be misleading‟.
The Standard regards both the methods as acceptable for the presentation of grants related to income.
However, method 2 may be more appropriate when the company can relate the grant to a specific
expenditure.
The Standard also provides that disclosure of the grant may be necessary for a proper understanding of
the financial statements. Disclosure of the effect of the grants on any item of income or expense which is
required to be separately disclosed is usually appropriate.
SM 2. Illustration 10 A Ltd. has received a grant of ` 10,00,00,000 in the year 20X1-20X2 from local government
in the form of subsidy for selling goods at lower price to lower income group population in a particular
area for two years. A Ltd. had accounted for the grant as income in the year 20X1-20X2. While accounting
for the grant in the year 20X1-20X2, A Ltd. was reasonably assured that all the conditions attached to the
grant will be complied with. However, in the year 20X5-20X6, it was found that A Ltd. has not complied
with the above condition and therefore notice of refund of grant has been served to it. A Ltd. has
contested but lost in court in 20X5-20X6 and now grant is fully repayable. How should A Ltd. reflect
repayable grant in its financial statements ending 20X5-20X6? [SM 2021, Ill.-10]
Ans.
Note: It is being assumed that the accounting done in previous years was not incorrect and was not in
error as per Ind AS 8.
Paragraph 32 of Ind AS 20, states that a Government grant that becomes repayable shall be accounted
for as a change in accounting estimate (see Ind AS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting
Estimates and Errors).
Repayment of a grant related to income shall be applied first against any unamortised deferred credit
recognised in respect of the grant. To the extent that the repayment exceeds any such deferred credit,
or when no deferred credit exists, the repayment shall be recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Repayment of a grant related to an asset shall be recognised by increasing the carrying amount of the
asset or reducing the deferred income balance by the amount repayable. The cumulative additional
depreciation that would have been recognised in profit or loss to date in the absence of the grant shall
be recognised immediately in profit or loss.
SM 3. An entity opens a new factory and receives a government grant of ` 15,000 in respect of capital

young apprentices . Training programme is expected to last for 18 months starting from 1 April 20X1.
Actual costs of the training incurred in 20X1-20X2 was ` 50,000 and in 20X2-20X3 ` 25,000. State, how
this grant should be accounted for? [SM 2021, TYK-7]
Ans.
At 31st March 20X1 the grant would be recognised as a liability and presented in the balance
sheet as a split between current and non -current amounts.
` 20,000 [(12 months / 18 months) x 30,000] is current and would be recognised in profit and loss for the
year ended 31st March, 20X1. The balance amount of ` 10,000 will be shown as non-current.
At the end of year 20X1-20X2, there would be a current balance of 10,000 (being the non - current
balance at the end of year 20X1-20X1 reclassified as current) in the balance sheet. This would be
recognised in profit in the year 20X2-20X3.

SHARE BASED PAYMENT
SM 1. A parent grants 200 share options to each of 100 employees of its subsidiary, conditional upon the
completion of two years‘ service with the subsidiary. The fair value of the share options on grant date is
` 30 each. At grant date, the subsidiary estimates that 80 percent of the employees will complete the
two-year service period. This estimate does not change during the vesting period. At the end of the
vesting period, 81 employees complete the required two years of service. The parent does not require
the subsidiary to pay for the shares needed to settle the grant of share options.
Pass the necessary journal entries for giving effect to the a bove arrangement. [SM 2021, Ill.-12]
Ans.
As required by paragraph B53 of the Ind AS 102, over the two -year vesting period, the subsidiary
measures the services received from the employees in accordance, the requirements applicable to
equity-settled share-based payment transactions as given in paragraph 43B. Thus, the subsidiary
measures the services received from the employees on the basis of the fair value of the sh are options at
grant date. An increase in equity is recognised as a contribution from the parent in the separate or
individual financial statements of the subsidiary.
The journal entries recorded by the subsidiary for each of the two years are as follows:

SM 3. QA Ltd. had on 1st April, 20X1 granted 1,000 share options each to 2,000 employees. The options are
due to vest on 31 st March, 20X4 provided the employee remains in employment till 31st March, 20X4.
On 1st April, 20X1, the Directors of Company estimated that 1,800 employees would qualify for the
option on 31st March, 20X4. This estimate was amended to 1,850 employees on31st March, 20X2 and
further amended to 1,840 employees on 31 st March, 20X3.
On 1st April, 20X1, the fair value of an option was ` 1.20. The fair value increased to` 1.30 as on 31st
March, 20X2 but due to challenging business conditions, the fair value declined thereafter. In
September, 20X2, when the fair value of an option was ` 0.90, the Directors repriced the option and this
caused the fair value to increase to ` 1.05. Trading conditions improved in the second half of the year
and by 31 st March, 20X3 the fair value of an option was ` 1.25. QA Ltd. decided that additional cost
incurred due to repricing of the options on 30th September, 20X2 should be spread over the remaining
vesting period from30th September, 20X2 to 31st March, 20X4.
The Company has requested you to suggest the suitable accounting treatment for these transaction as
on 31st March, 20X3. [SM 2021, TYK-10]
Ans.
Paragraph 27 of Ind AS 102 requires the entity to recognise the effects of repricing that increase the
total fair value of the share -based payment arrangement or are otherwise beneficial to the
employee.
If the repricing increases the fair value of the equity instruments granted paragraph B43(a) of Appendix
B requires the entity to include the incremental fair value granted (ie the difference between the fair
value of the repriced equity instrument and tha t of the original equity instrument, both estimated
as at the date of the modification) in the measurement of the amount recognised for services received as
consideration for the equity instruments granted.
If the repricing occurs during the vesting perio d, the incremental fair value granted is included in the
measurement of the amount recognised for services received over the period from the repricing date
until the date when the repriced equity instruments vest, in addition to the amount based on the grant
date fair value of the original equity instruments, which is recognised over the remainder of the
original vesting period.
Accordingly, the amounts recognised in years 1 and 2 are as follows:
Year Calculation Compensation Cumulative
expense for compensation
period expense
` `
1 [1,850 employees x 1,000 options x `1.20] x 1/3 7,40,000 7,40,000
2 (1,840 employees x 1,000 options x [(`1.20 x 8,24,000 15,64,000
2/3) + {(`1.05 - 0.90) x 0.5/1.5}] ” 7,40,000
Note: Year 3 calculations have not been provided as it was not required in the question.
SM 4. A parent, Company P, grants 30 shares to 100 employees each of its subsidiary, Company S, on condition
that the employees remain employed by Company S for three years. Assume that at the outset, and
at the end of Years 1 and 2, it is expected that all theemployees will remain employed for all the three
years. At the end of Year 3, none of the employees has left. The fair value of the shares on grant date is
` 5 per share.
Company S agrees to reimburse Company P over the term of the arrangement for75 percent of
the final expense recognised by Company S. What would be the accounting treatment in the books of
Company P and Company S? [SM 2021, TYK-11]
Ans.
Company S expects to recognise an expense totalling`15,000 (30 shares x 100 employees x `5 per
share) and, therefore, expects the total reimbursement to be `11,250 (`15,000 x 75%). Company S
therefore reimburses Company P `3,750 (`11,250 x 1/3) each year.

SM 2. Shaurya Limited is the company having its registered and corporate office at New Delhi.60% of Shaurya
Limited’s shares are held by the Government of India and rest by otherinvestors.
This is the first time that Shaurya limited would be applying Ind AS fo r the preparation of its financials
for the current financial year 2019 -2020. Following balance sheet is prepared as per earlier GAAP as at
the beginning of the preceding period along with the additional information:
Chief financial officer of Shaurya Limited has also presented the following information against
corresponding relevant items in the balance sheet:
a) Property, Plant & Equipment consists a class of assets as office buildings whose carrying
amount is ` 10,00,000. However, the fair value of said office building as on the date of
transition is estimated to be ` 15,00,000. Company wants to follow revaluation model as
its accounting policy in respect of its property, plant and equipment for the first annual Ind
AS financial statements.
b) The fair value of Intangible assets as on the date of transition is estimated to be` 2,50,000.
However, the management is reluctant to incorporate the fair value changes in books of
account.
c) Shaurya Ltd. had acquired 80% shares in a company, Excel private limited few years ago thereby
acquiring the control upon it at that time. Shaurya Ltd. recognised goodwill as per
erstwhile accounting standards by accounting the excess of consideration paid over the net
assets acquired at the date of acquisition. Fair value exercise was not done at the time of
acquisition.
d) Trade receivables include an amount of ` 20,000 as provision for doubtful debts measured
in accordance with previous GAAP. Now as per latest estimates using hindsights, the
provision needs to be revised to ` 25,000.
e) Company had given a loan of ` 1,00,000 to an entity for the term of 10 years six years ago.
Transaction costs were incurred separately for this loan. The loan carries an interest rate of 7%.
The principal amount is to be repaid in equal installments over the period of ten years at the year
end. Interest is also payable at each year end. The fair value of loan as on the date of
transition is ` 50,000 as against the carrying amount of loan which at present amounts to `
40,000. However, Ind AS 109 mandates to recognise the interest income as per effective
interest method after the adjustment of transaction costs. Management says it is tedious task in
the given case to apply the effective interest rate changes with retrospective effect and hence is
reluctant to apply the same retrospectively in its first time adoption.
f) In the long-term borrowings, ` 4,50,000 of component is due towards the State
Government. Interest is payable on the government loan at 4%, however the prevailing
rate in the market at present is 8%. The fair market value of loan stands at` 4,20,000 as on the
relevant date.
g) Under Previous GAAP, the mutual funds were measured at cost or market value, whichever
is lower. Under Ind AS, the Company has designated these investments at fair value through
profit or loss. The value of mutual funds as per previous GAAP is` 2,00,000 as included in
‘current investment’. However, the fair value of mutualfunds as on the date of transition is `
2,30,000.
h) Ignore separate calculation of deferred tax on above adjustments. Assume the net deferred tax
income to be ` 50,000 on account of Ind AS transition adjustments.

Para D7AA has to be applied for all items of property, plant and equipment. So, if D5 exemption is taken
for buildings, Ind AS will have to be applied retrospectively for other assets as well. Since, an entity
elect to measure an item of property, plant and equipment at the date of transition to Ind AS at its
fair value and use that fair value as its deemed cost at that date , it is assumed that the carrying amount
of other assets based on retrospective application of Ind AS is equal to their fair value of ` 10 lakhs.
Note 2: Goodwill:
Ind AS 103 mandatorily requires measuring the assets and liabilities of the acquiree at its fair value as on
the date of acquisition. However, a first time adopter may elect to not apply the provisions of Ind AS
103 with retrospective effect that occurred prior to the date of transition to Ind AS.
Hence company can continue to carry the goodwill in its books of account as per the previousGAAP.
However, there is a requirement that Intangible assets must meet the definition and recognitioncriteria
as per Ind AS 38.

Note 4: Loan:
Para B8C of Ind AS 101 states that if it is impracticable (as defined in Ind AS 8) for an entity to apply
retrospectively the effective interest method in Ind AS 109, the fair value of the financial asset or the
financial liability at the date of transition to Ind ASs shall be the new gross carrying amount of that
financial asset or the new amortised cost of that financial liability at the date of transition to Ind AS.
Accordingly, ` 50,000 would be the gross carrying amount of loan and difference of ` 10,000 (`50,000 ” `
40,000) would be adjusted to retained earnings.
D19A states that an entity may designate a financial asset as measured at fair value through profit or
loss in accordance with Ind AS 109 on the basis of the facts and circumstances that exist at the date of
transition to Ind AS.
Para 15 of Ind AS 101 further states that an entity may receive information after the date of transition to
Ind AS about estimates that it had made under previous GAAP. In accordance with paragraph 14, an
entity shall treat the receipt of that information in the same way as non - adjusting events after
the reporting period in accordance with Ind AS 10, Events after the Reporting Period.
The entity shall not reflect that new information in its opening Ind AS Balance Sheet (unless the
estimates need adjustment for any differences in accounting policies or there is objective evidence
that the estimates we re in error). Instead, the entity shall reflect that new information in profit or loss
(or, if appropriate, other comprehensive income) for the year ended 31 March2019.
However, Para B10 of Ind AS 101 states, a first -time adopter shall classify all government loans received
as a financial liability or an equity instrument in accordance with Ind AS 32, Financial Instruments:
Presentation. Except as permitted by paragraph B11, a first -time adopter shall apply the requirements
in Ind AS 109, inancial Instruments, and Ind AS 20, Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure
of Government Assistance , prospectively to government loans existing at the date of transition to Ind
ASs and shall not recognise the corresponding benefit of the government loan at a below-market rate of
interest as a government grant. Consequently, if a first-time adopter did not, under its previous GAAP,
recognise and measure a government loan at a below-market rate of interest on a basis
consistentwith Ind AS requirements, it shall use its previous GAAP carrying amount of the loan at the
date of transition to Ind AS as the carrying amount of the loan in the opening Ind AS Balance Sheet. An
entity shall apply Ind AS 109 to the measurement of such loans after the date of transition to Ind AS.
Note 8: Dividend
Dividend should be deducted from retained earnings during the year when it has been declared and
approved. Accordingly, the provision declared for preceding year should be reversed (to rectify the
wrong entry). Retained earnings would increase proportionately due to suchadjustment.
SM 3. On April 1, 20X1, Sigma Ltd. issued 30,000 6% convertible debentures of face value of` 100 per
debenture at par. The debentures are redeemable at a premium of 10% on31 March 20X5 or these
may be converted into ordinary shares at the option of the holder. The interest rate for equivalent
debentures without conversion rights would have been 10%. The date of transition to Ind AS is 1 April
20X3. Suggest how should Sigma Ltd. account for this compound financial instrument on the date of
transition. The present value of ` 1 receivable at the end of each year based on discount rates of 6%
and 10% can be taken as:
As per para D18 of Ind AS 101, Ind AS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation, requires an entity to split a
compound financial instrument at inception into separate liability and equity components. If the liability
component is no longer outstanding, retrospective application of Ind AS 32 would involve separating
two portions of equity. The first portion is recognised in retained earnings and represents the
cumulative interest accreted on the liability component. The other portion represents the original
equity component. However, in accordance with this Ind AS, a first -time adopter need not separate
these two portions if the liability component is no longer outstanding at the date of transition t o Ind AS.
In the present case, since the liability is outstanding on the date of transition, Sigma Ltd. will need to
split the convertible debentures into debt and equity portion on the date of transition. Accordingly, we
will first measure the liability component by discounting the contractually determined stream of
future cash flows (interest and principal) to present value by using the discount rate of 10% p.a.
(being the market interest rate for similar debentures with no conversion option).

SM 6. ABC Ltd is a government company and is a first-time adopter of Ind AS. As per the previous
GAAP, the contributions received by ABC Ltd. from the government (which holds100% shareholding in
ABC Ltd.) which is in the nature of promoters contribution have been recognised in capital reserve and
treated as part of shareholders funds in accordance with the provisions of AS 12, Accounting for
Government Grants.
State whether the accounting treatment of the grants in the nature of promoters‟ contribution
as per AS 12 is also permitted under Ind AS 20 Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of
Government Assistance. If not, then what will be the accounting treatment of such grants recognised in
capital reserve as per previous GAAP on the date of transition to Ind AS. [SM 2021, TYK-7]
Ans.
Paragraph 2 of Ind AS 20, ‚Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government
Assistance‛ inter alia states that the Standard does not deal with government participation in the
ownership of the entity.
Since ABC Ltd. is a Government company, it implies that government has 100% shareholding in the
entity. Accordingly, the entity needs to determine whether the payment is provided as a shareholder
contribution or as a government. Equity contributions will be recorded in equity while grants will be
shown in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Where it is concluded that the contributions are in the nature of government grant, the entity shall apply
the principles of Ind AS 20 retrospectively as specified in Ind AS 101 ‚First Time Adoption of Ind AS‛. Ind
AS 20 requires all grants to be recognised as income on a systematic basis over the periods in which the
entity recognises as expenses the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate.
Unlike AS 12, Ind AS 20 requires the grant to be classified as either a capital or an income grant and does
not permit recognition of government grants in the nature of promoter’s contribution directly to
shareholders funds.
Where it is concluded that the contributions are in the nature of shareholder contributions and are
recognised in capital reserve under previous GAAP, the provisions of paragraph 10 of Ind AS 101 would
be applied which states that except in certain cases, an entity shall in its opening Ind AS Balance Sheet:
(a) recognise all assets and liabilities whose recognition is required by Ind AS;
(b) not recognise items as assets or liabilities if Ind AS do not permit such recognition;
(c) reclassify items that it recognised in accordance with previous GAAP as one type of asset, liability
or component of equity, but are a different type of asset, liability or component of equity in
accordance with Ind AS; and
(d) apply Ind AS in measuring all recognised assets and liabilities.
Accordingly, as per the above requirements of paragraph 10(c) in the given case, contributions
recognised in the Capital Reserve should be transferred to appropriate category under „Other Equity‟ at
the date of transition to Ind AS.

amount of `10 per unit. The current market price is `8 per unit at which these units can be sold.
Company P has a firm sales contract with Company Q to sell60 units at `11 per unit, which cannot be
settled net. Estimated incremental selling cost is `1 per unit.
Determine Net Realisable Value (NRV) of the inventory of Company P. [SM 2021, Ill.- 14]
Ans.
While performing NRV test, the NRV of 60 units that will be sold to Company Q is`10 per unit (i.e. 11-1).
NRV of the remaining 40 units is `7 per unit (i.e. 8-1).
Therefore, Company P will write down those remaining 40 units by `120 (i.e. 40 x 3). Total cost of
inventory would be
Goods to be sold to Company Q 60 units x `10 + `600
Remaining goods 40 unit x `7 `280

SM 9. On 31 March 20X1, the inventory of ABC includes spare parts which it had been supplying to a number of
different customers for some years. The cost of the spare parts was ` 10 million and based on retail
prices at 31 March 20X1, the expected selling price of the spare parts is` 12 million. On 15 April 20X1,
due to market fluctuations, expected selling price of the spare parts in stock reduced to ` 8 million. The
estimated selling expense required to make the sales would ` 0.5 million. Financial statements were
approved by the Board of Directors on 20th April20X1.
As at 31st March 20X2, Directors noted that such inventory is still unsold and lying in the warehouse of
the company. Directors believe that inventory is in a saleable condition and active marketing would
result in an immediate sale. Since the market conditions have improved, estimated selling price of
inventory is ` 11 million and estimated selling expenses are same ` 0.5 million.

= ` 0.4 per hour
Management should allocate variable overhead costs to units produced at a rate of ` 0.4 per hour.
The above rate results in the allocation of all variable overheads to units produced during the year.
Closing inventory = Opening inventory + Units produced during year ” Units sold during year
= 2,500 + 6,500 ” 6,700 = 2,300 units
As each unit has taken one hour to produce (6,500 hours / 6,500 units produced), total fixed and variable
production overhead recognised as part of cost of inventory:
= Number of units of closing inventory x Number of hours to produce each unit x (Fixed production
overhead absorption rate + Variable production overhead absorption rate)

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
SM 1. B Ltd. owns an asset with an original cost of ` 2,00,000. On acquisition, management determined
that the useful life was 10 years and the residual value would be ` 20,000. The asset is now 8 years old,
and during this time there have been no revisions to the assessed residual value.
At the end of year 8, management has reviewed the useful life and residual value and has determined
that the useful life can be extended to 12 years in view of the maintenance program adopted by the
company. As a result, the residual value will reduce to ` 10,000.
How would the above changes in estimates be accounted by B Ltd.? [SM 2021, TYK-3]
Ans.
Calculation of accumulated depreciation till 8th year
Depreciable amount {Cost less residual value} = ` 2,00,000 ” ` 20,000 = ` 1,80,000. Annual depreciation =
Depreciable amount / Useful life = 1,80,000 / 10 = ` 18,000. Accumulated depreciation = 18,000 x No. of
years (8) = ` 1,44,000.
Calculation of carrying amount at the end of the 8th year
The asset has a carrying amount of ` 56,000 at the end of year 8 [ie. ` 2,00,000 ” ` 1,44,000]
Accounting of the changes in estimates
Revision of the useful life to 12 years results in a remaining useful life of 4 years (ie 12 years” 8 years).
The revised depreciable amount is ` 46,000 (` 56,000 ” ` 10,000)
Thus, depreciation should be charged in future ie from 9th year onwards at ` 11,500 per annum (`

machine was ` 1,00,000 on that date. X Ltd. sold the damaged asset as scrap for ` 10,000. X Ltd. has
insured the same asset against damage. As on 31st March, 20X1, thecompensation proceeds was still in
process but the insurance company has confirmed the claim. Compensation of ` 50,000 is receivable
from the insurance company. How X Ltd. will account for the above transaction? [SM 2021, TYK-4]
Ans.
As per para 66 of Ind AS 16, impairment or losses of items of property, plant and equipment and related
claims for or payments of compensation from third parties are separate economic events and should be
accounted for separately.
X Ltd. should account for the above transaction as given below:
At the time of sale of scrap machine, X Ltd. should write off the carrying amount of asset from books of
account and provide a loss of ` 90,000. (i.e., carrying amount of ` 1,00,000 ” realised amount of ` 10,000)
As on 31st March, 20X1, X Ltd. should recognise income of ` 50,000 against the compensation receivable
in its profit or loss.
SM 3. An entity has a nuclear power plant and a related decommissioning liability. The nuclear power plant
started operating on 1st April, 2XX1. The plant has a useful life of 40 years. Its initial costwas ` 1,20,000
which included an amount for decommissioning costs of ` 10,000, which represented ` 70,400 in
estimated cash flows payable in 40 years discounted at a risk-adjusted rate of 5 per cent. The entity’s
financial year ends on 31st March. On March, 2X11, the net present value of the decommissioning
liability has decreased by ` 8,000. The discount rate has not yet changed.
How the entity will account for the above changes in decommissioning liability in the year 2X11, if it
adopts cost model? [SM 2021, TYK-5]
Ans.
On 31st March, 2X11, the plant is 10 years old. Accumulated depreciation is ` 30,000 (` 120,000 x 10
/ 40 years). Due to unwinding of discount @ 5% over the 10 years, the amount of decommissioning
liability has increased from ` 10,000 to ` 16,300 (approx.).

On 31st March, 2X11, the discount rate has not changed. However, the entity estimates that, as a result
of technological advances, the net present value of the decommissioning liability has decreased by `
8,000. Accordingly, the entity adjusts the decommissioning liability from ` 16,300 to ` 8,300. On this
date, the entity passes the following journal entry to reflect the change:
` `
Provision for decommissioning liability Dr. 8,000

Following this adjustment, the carrying amount of the asset is ` 82,000 (` 1,20,000 ” ` 8,000” ` 30,000),
which will be depreciated over the remaining 30 years of the asset’s life giving a depreciation expense
for the next year of ` 2,733 (` 82,000 / 30). The next year’s finance cost for unwinding of discount will be
` 415 (` 8,300 × 5 per cent).
SM 4. H Limited purchased an item of PPE costing ` 100 million which has useful life of 10 years. The entity has
a contractual decommissioning and site restoration obligation, estimated at ` 5 million to be incurred at
the end of 10th year. The current market based discount rate is 8%.
The company follows SLM method of depreciation. H Limited follows the Cost Model for accounting of
PPE.
Determine the carrying value of an item of PPE and decommissioning liability at each year end when
(a) There is no change in the expected decommissioning expenses, expected timing of incurring the
decommissioning expense and / or the discount rate
(b) At the end of Year 4, the entity expects that the estimated cash outflow on account of
decommissioning and site restoration to be incurred at the end of the useful life of the asset will
be ` 8 million (in place of ` 5 million, estimated in the past).
Determine in case (b), how H Limited need to account for the changes in the decommissioning liability?
[SM 2021, Ill. 14 Modified]
Ans.
The present value of such decommissioning and site restoration obligation at the end of 10th year is `
2.32 million [being 5 / (1.08)10]. H Limited will recognise the present value of decommissioning liability
of ` 2.32 million as an addition to cost of PPE and will also recognize a corresponding decommissioning
liability. Further, the entity will recognise the unwinding of discount as finance charge.

LEASES
Entity W’s incremental borrowing rate at the lease inception date and as at 01/01/20X4 is 5% and6%
respectively and the CPI at lease commencement date and as at 01/01/20X4 is 120 and 125 respectively.
At the lease commencement date, Entity W did not have a significant economic incentive to exercise the
renewal option. In the first quarter of 20X4, Entity W installed unique lease improvements into the retail
store with an estimated five-year economic life. Entity W determined that it would only recover the cost
of the improvements if it exercises the renewal option, creating a significant economic incentive to
extend.
Is Entity W required to remeasure the lease in the first quarter of 20X4? [SM 2021, Ill.-32 Modified]
Ans.
Since Entity W is now reasonably certain that it will exercise its renewal option, it is required to
remeasure the lease in the first quarter of 20X4.
To remeasure the lease liability, Entity W would first calculate the present value of the future lease
payments for the new lease term (using the updated discount rate of 6%). The following table shows the
present value of the future lease payments based on an updated CPI of 125. Since the initial lease
payments were based on a CPI of 120, the CPI has increased by 4.167% approx. As a result, Entity W
would increase the future lease payments by 4%. As shown in the table, therevised lease liability is `
4,91,376.

To calculate the adjustment to the lease liability, Entity W would compare the recalculated and original
lease liability balances on the remeasurement date.
Entity W would record the following journal entry to adjust the lease liability.

At the beginning of Year 6, Lessee and Lessor agree to amend the original lease to:
(a) include an additional 1,500 square metres of space in the same building starting from the
beginning of Year 6 and
(b) reduce the lease term from 10 years to eight years. The annual fixed payment for the 3,500
square metres is ` 1,50,000 payable at the end of each year (from Year 6 to Year 8). Lessee’s
incremental borrowing rate at the beginning of Year 6 is 7% p.a.
The consideration for the increase in scope of 1,500 square metres of space is not commensurate with
the stand-alone price for that increase adjusted to reflect the circumstances of the contract.
Consequently, Lessee does not account for the increase in scope that adds the right to use an additional
1,500 square metres of space as a separate lease.

*Refer Note 4.
At the effective date of the modification (at the beginning of Year 6), Lessee remeasures the lease
liability on the basis of:
(a) A three-year remaining lease term (ie. till 8th year), (b) Annual payments of `150,000 and
(c) Lessee’s incremental borrowing rate of 7% p.a.
The modified liability equals `3,93,600, of which (a) `1,31,200 relates to the increase of `50,000 in the
annual lease payments from Year 6 to Year 8 and (refer note 1) (b) `2,62,400 relates to the remaining
three annual lease payments of `1,00,000 from Year 6 to Year 8 with reduction of lease term (Refer Note
3)
At the effective date of the modification (at the beginning of Year 6), the pre-modification lease liability
is `4,21,090. The remaining lease liability for the original 2,000 square metres of office space is
`2,67,300 (i.e., present value of three annual lease payments of `1,00,000, discounted at the original
discount rate of 6% p.a.) (refer note 2).
Consequently, Lessee reduces the carrying amount of the ROU Asset by `1,47,180 (`3,67,950 ”
`2,20,770), and the carrying amount of the lease liability by `1,53,790 (`4,21,090
” `2,67,300). Lessee recognises the difference between the decrease in the lease liability and the
decrease in the ROU Asset (`1,53,790 ” `1,47,180 = `6,610) as a gain in profit or loss at the effective date
of the modification (at the beginning of Year 6).
At the effective date of the modification (at the beginning of Year 6), Lessee recognises the effect of the
remeasurement of the remaining lease liability reflecting the revised discount rate of 7% p.a., which is
`4,900 (`2,67,300 ” `2,62,400*), as an adjustment to the ROU Asset.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, L and Z agree on a rent concession that allows Z to pay no rent in the
period from July, 2020 to September 2020 but to pay rent of 20,000 per month in the period from
January 2021 to March 2021. There are no other changes to the lease.
L does not account for the change as a lease modification. L continues to recognise operating lease
income on a straight-line basis, which is representative of the pattern in which Z’s benefit from use of the
underlying asset is diminished.
On 1 April 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, M agrees to waive K’s rental payments for May, June
and July 2020.
This decrease in consideration is not included in the original terms and conditions of the lease and is
therefore a lease modification.
How this will be accounted for by lessor? [SM 2021, Ill.-40]
Ans.
M accounts for this modification as a new operating lease from its effective date ” i.e. 1 April 2020. M
recognises the impact of the waiver on a straight-line basis over the five-year term of the new lease. M
also takes into account the carrying amount of the unamortised lease incentive on 1 April2020 of `
3,00,000. M amortises this balance on a straight-line basis over the five-year term ofthe new lease.

transfer or does not transfer substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the
lorries. Assuming that substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the lorries are
transferred, L classifies the lease as a finance lease.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, M’s business has contracted. In June 2020, L and M amend the contract
so that it now terminates on 31 December 2020.
Early termination was not part of the original terms and conditions of the lease and this is therefore a
lease modification. The modification does not grant M an additional right to use the underlying assets
and therefore cannot be accounted for as a separate lease.
How this will be accounted for by lessor? [SM 2021, Ill.-41]
Ans.
L determines that, had the modified terms been effective at the inception date, the lease term would
not have been for the major part of the lorries’ economic life. Furthermore, there are no other indicators
that the lease would have transferred substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership
of the lorries. Therefore, the lease would have been classified as an operating lease.
In June 2020, L accounts for the modified lease as a new operating lease. The lessor L:
a) derecognises the finance lease receivable and recognises the underlying assets in its
statement of financial position according to the nature of the underlying asset ” i.e. as property,
plant and equipment in this case; and
b) measures the aggregate carrying amount of the underlying assets as the amount of the net
investment in the lease immediately before the effective date of the lease modification.
SM 6. Revised consideration is substantially the same as or less than the original consideration
Retailer Q leases a store in a large retail mall. The rent payable is ` 1,00,000 per month. As a result of the
COVID-19 pandemic, Q agrees with the lessor to defer the rent originally due in the months April, 2020
to June, 2020.
As part of this agreement, the rent for the period January, 2021 to March 2021 will be increased by `
1,10,000 per month, which compensates the lessor for the deferred rent as adjusted for the time value
of money.
Whether the rent deferral is eligible for the practical expedient if the other conditions are met?
[SM 2021, Ill.-47]
Ans.
The rent deferral satisfies the criteria to apply the practical expedient because:
(1) It is a rent concession occurring as a direct consequence of the pandemic;
(2) Increase in rentals during January, 2021 to March 2021 compensates for the time value ofmoney;
(3) Rent deferral reduces lease payments originally due on or before 30 June 2021; and
(4) There is no substantive change to other terms and conditions of the lease. Hence, Q considers
applying the practical expedient.
SM 7. Consider only payments that were originally due on or before 30 June, 2021
Lessee P operates a chain of restaurants and leases several outlets. As a result of COVID-19 pandemic, P
agrees a rent deferral with the lessor.
Under the terms of the rent deferral, rent originally due in the period July 2020 to December 2020 will
be added to the rent due in the period July 2021 to December 2021.
Whether the rent deferral is eligible for the practical expedient if the other conditions are met?
[SM 2021, Ill.-48]
Ans.
The rent deferral satisfies the criteria to apply the practical expedient because:
(1) It is a rent concession occurring as a direct consequence of the pandemic;
(2) Recovery of rentals during July, 2021 to December, 2021 is substantially the same as, orless than,
the consideration for the lease immediately preceding the change;
(3) Rent deferral reduces lease payments originally due on or before 30 June 2021; and
(4) There is no substantive change to other terms and conditions of the lease.
Therefore, P concludes that the rent deferral meets the ‘payments due’ eligibility criterion.

Z’s business is severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and L and Z negotiate a rent concession. On
1 June 2020, L agrees to provide Z with an unconditional rent concession that allows Z to forego
payment of its rent due on 1 July ” i.e. L forgives Z the rent payment of 100,000 due on 1 July.
What will be the accounting treatment in the books of lessee for rent concessions assuming that it is
eligible for practical expedient? [SM 2021, Ill.-51]
Ans.
Z determines that the rent concession is eligible for the practical expedient.
Applying the practical expedient, Z should account for the forgiveness of rent as a negative variable
lease payment. The rent concession is unconditional, so the event that triggers the variable lease
payment is the agreement between Z and L for the rent concession on 1 June 2020.
Therefore, Z accounts for the rent concession as a negative variable lease payment on 1 June. Assuming
that there are no other changes to the lease, Z continues to use the retail space andthe right-of-use
asset is not impaired. The lease accounting entries will be as follows:
recognise the rent concession as a variable lease payment in profit or loss (i.e. record a debit to the
lease liability and a corresponding credit in the income statement); and
continue to accrue interest on the lease liability at the unchanged incremental borrowing rate of 5%
(i.e. record a debit to interest expense and a corresponding credit to the lease liability).
After accounting for the impact of the rent concession, Z’s lease liability represents the present value of
all future lease payments owing to L, discounted at the unchanged incremental borrowing rate. Z has
effectively derecognised the portion of the lease liability that has been extinguished by the forgiveness
of the quarterly lease payment due on 1 July 2020.
In addition, Z continues to depreciate the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, which is unchanged
as a result of the rent concession.

BORROWING COSTS
SM 1. A company deals in production of dairy products. It prepares and sells various milk products like ghee,
butter and cheese. The company borrowed funds from bank for manufacturing operation. The cheese
takes substantial longer period to get ready for sale.
State whether borrowing costs incurred to finance the production of inventories (cheese) that have a
long production period, be capitalised? [SM 2021, Ill.-1]
Ans.
Ind AS 23 does not require the capitalisation of borrowing costs for inventories that are manufactured in
large quantities on a repetitive basis. However, interest capitalisation is permitted as long as the
production cycle takes a ‘substantial period of time’, as with cheese.
SM 2. A company is in the process of developing computer software. The asset has been qualified for
recognition purposes. However, the development of computer software will take substantial period of
time to complete.
(i) Can computer software be termed as a ‘qualifying asset’ under Ind AS 23?
(ii) Is management intention considered when assessing whether an asset is a qualifying asset?
[SM 2021, Ill.-2]
Ans.
(i) Yes. An intangible asset that takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use
or sale is a ‘qualifying asset’. This would be the case for an internally generated computer
software in the development phase when it takes a ‘substantial period of time’ to complete.
(ii) Yes. Management should assess whether an asset, at the date of acquisition, is ‘ready for its
intended use or sale’. The asset might be a qualifying asset, depending on how management
intends to use it. For example, when an acquired asset can only be used in combination with a
larger group of fixed assets or was acquired specifically for the construction of one specific
qualifying asset, the assessment of whether the acquired asset is a qualifying asset is made on a
combined basis.
SM 3. A telecom company has acquired a 3G license. The licence could be sold or licensed to a third party.
However, management intends to use it to operate a wireless network. Development of the network
starts when the license is acquired.
Should borrowing costs on the acquisition of the 3G license be capitalised until the network is ready for
its intended use? [SM 2021, Ill.-3]
Ans.
Yes. The license has been exclusively acquired to operate the wireless network. The fact that the license
can be used or licensed to a third party is irrelevant. The acquisition of the license is the first step in a
wider investment project (developing the network). It is part of the network investment, which meets
the definition of a qualifying asset under Ind AS 23.
SM 4. A real estate company has incurred expenses for the acquisition of a permit allowing the construction of
a building. It has also acquired equipment that will be used for the construction of various buildings.
Can borrowing costs on the acquisition of the permit and the equipment be capitalised until the
construction of the building is complete? [SM 2021, Ill.-4]
Ans.
With respect to Permit
Yes, since permit is specific to one building. It is the first step in a wider investment project. It is part of
the construction cost of the building, which meets the definition of a qualifying asset.

Striker 3.2 – SM 2021 – Newly Added / Modified Questions Bank by CA SJ
With respect to Equipment
No, since the equipment will be used for other construction projects. It is ready for its ‘intended use’at
the acquisition date. Hence, it does not meet the definition of a qualifying asset.
SM 5. On 1st April, 20X1, A Ltd. took a 8% loan of ` 50,00,000 for construction of building A which is repayable
after 6 years ie on 31st March 20X7. The construction of building was completed on31st March 20X3.
A Ltd. started constructing a new building B in the year 20X3-20X4, for which he used his existing
borrowings. He has outstanding general purpose loan of ` 25,00,000, interest on which is payable @ 9%
and ` 15,00,000, interest on which is payable @ 7%.
Is the specific borrowing transferred to the general borrowings pool once the respective qualifying
asset is completed? Why [SM 2021, Ill.-7]
Ans.
Yes. If specific borrowings were not repaid once the relevant qualifying asset was completed, they
become general borrowings for as long as they are outstanding.
The borrowing costs that are directly attributable to obtaining qualifying assets are those
borrowing costs that would have been avoided if the expenditure on the qualifying asset had not been
made. If cash was not spent on other qualifying assets, it could be directed to repay this specific loan.
Thus, borrowing costs could be avoided (that is, they are directly attributable to other qualifying assets).
When general borrowings are used for qualifying assets, Ind AS 23 requires that, borrowing costs
eligible for capitalisation is calculated by applying a capitalisation rate to the expenditures on
qualifying assets.
The amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation is always limited to the amount of actual
borrowing costs incurred during the period.

2,500,000 on 1st January, 20X2.
Calculate the borrowing cost that can be capitalised for the plant.
[SM 2021, Ill.-8 Alternative Approach]
Ans.
Capitalisation rate (18% x 1,000)+ (16% x 3,000) 16.5%
1,000 + 3,000 1,000 + 3,000
Borrowing Costs (500,000 x 16.5%)+(2,500,000 x16.5% x 3/12) `1,85,625
Capitalisation rate for above illustration could also be calculated with the following approach by
assigning weights to the borrowings:

SM 7. An entity constructs a new head office building commencing on 1st September 20X1, which continues
till 31st December 20X1. Directly attributable expenditure at the beginning of the month on this asset
are ` 100,000 in September 20X1 and ` 250,000 in each of the months of October to December 20X1.
The entity has not taken any specific borrowings to finance the construction of the asset but has
incurred finance costs on its general borrowings during the construction period. During the year, the
entity had issued 10% debentures with a face value of ` 20 lacs and had an overdraft of ` 500,000, which
increased to ` 750,000 in December 20X1. Interest was paid on the overdraft at 15% until 1 October
20X1, then the rate was increased to 16%.
Calculate the capitalization rate for computation of borrowing cost in accordance withInd AS 23
‘Borrowing Costs’. [SM 2021, TYK-3]
Ans.
Since the entity has only general borrowing hence first step will be to compute the capitalisation rate.
The capitalisation rate of the general borrowings of the entity during the period of construction is
calculated as follows:
Finance cost on ` 20 lacs 10% debentures during September ” December 20X1 ` 66,667
Interest @ 15% on overdraft of ` 5,00,000 in September 20X1 ` 6,250
Interest @ 16% on overdraft of ` 5,00,000 in October and November 20X1 ` 13,333
Interest @ 16% on overdraft of ` 750,000 in December 20X1 ` 10,000
Total finance costs in September ” December 20X1 ` 96,250

(ii) Computation of borrowing cost to be capitalized for specific borrowings and general
borrowings based on weighted average accumulated expenses
Note: Since construction of building started on 1st April, 20X1, it is presumed that all the later
expenditures on construction of building had been incurred at the beginning of the respective
month
Note: In the above journal entry, it is assumed that interest amount will be paid at the year end.
Hence, entry for interest payable has been passed on 31.1.20X2.

Entity A’s borrowings at its year end of 31st March, 20X2 were as follows:
a. 10%, 4-year note with simple interest payable annually, which relates specifically to the project;
debt outstanding on 31st March, 20X2 amounted to ` 7,00,000. Interest of `65,000 was
incurred on these borrowings during the year, and interest income of ` 20,000was earned on
these funds while they were held in anticipation of payments.
b. 12.5% 10-year note with simple interest payable annually; debt outstanding at1st April,
20X1 amounted to ` 1,000,000 and remained unchanged during the year; and
c. 10% 10-year note with simple interest payable annually; debt outstanding at1st April,
20X1 amounted to ` 1,500,000 and remained unchanged during the year.
What amount of the borrowing costs can be capitalized at year end as per relevantInd AS?
[SM 2021, TYK-5]
Ans.
As per Ind AS 23, when an entity borrows funds specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying
asset, the entity should determine the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation as the actual
borrowing costs incurred on that borrowing during the period less any investment income on the
temporary investment of those borrowings.
The amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization, in cases where the funds are borrowed
generally, should be determined based on the capitalisation rate and expenditure incurred in obtaining a
qualifying asset. The costs incurred should first be allocated to the specific borrowings.

IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS
SM 1. Entity A acquires Entity B for ` 50 million, of which ` 35 million is the fair value of the identifiable assets
acquired and liabilities assumed. The acquisition of B Ltd. is to be integrated into two of Entity A’s CGUs
with the net assets being allocated as follows: ` in million
In addition to the net assets acquired that are assigned to CGU 2, the acquiring entity expects CGU 2 to
benefit from certain synergies related to the acquisition (e.g. CGU 2 is expected to realise higher sales of
its products because of access to the acquired entity’s distribution channels). There is no synergistic
goodwill attributable to other CGUs.
Entity A allocated the purchase consideration of the acquired business to CGU 1 and CGU 2 as ` 33
million and ` 17 million respectively.
Determine the allocation of goodwill to each CGU? [SM 2021, Ill.-7]
Ans.
If goodwill is allocated to the CGUs based on the difference between the purchase consideration
and the fair value of net assets acquired ie direct method, the allocation would
be as follows: (All figures are ` in million, unless otherwise specified)
At the end of next financial year, B Ltd.’s carrying amount is reduced to ` 2,700 thousand (excluding
goodwill).
Recoverable amount of B Ltd.’s assets is
Case (i) ` 2,000 thousand, Case (ii) ` 2,800 thousand

It is to be noted that since an entity measures NCI at its proportionate interest in the net identifiable
assets of a subsidiary at the acquisition date, rather than at fair value, goodwill attributable to NCI is not
recognised in the parent’s consolidated financial statements and so the impairment loss on such
goodwill not recognised

SM 1. Netravati Ltd. purchased a commercial office space as an Investment Property, in the Global Trade
Centre Commercial Complex, for ₹ 5 crores. However, for purchasing the same, the Company had to
obtain membership of the Global Trade Centre Commercial Complex Association by paying ₹
6,25,000 as a one-time joining fee. Netravati Ltd. wants to write off the one-time joining fees paid as an
expense under Membership and Subscription Charges and value the investment property at ₹ 5 crores.
Advise.
Would you answer change if the office space was purchased with the intention of using it as an
administrative centre of the company? [SM 2021, Ill.-2]
Ans.
Cost of Investment Property
As per Ind AS 40, the cost of a purchased investment property comprises its purchase price and any
directly attributable expenditure (e.g. professional fees for legal services, property transfer taxes and
other transaction costs). Accordingly, on initial recognition, the one-time joining fee of ₹ 6,25,000
should be added to the purchase price. Therefore, the investment property should be measured at ₹
5,06,25,000 (i.e. cost of the commercial office space + one-time joining fee). Writing off the amount of ₹
6,25,000 to the P&L is not appropriate
SM 2. X Limited purchased a building for ₹ 30,00,000 on 1st May, 20X1 with an intention to earn rentals. The

direct legal costs of ₹ 1,00,000 and ₹ 20,000 respectively were incurred in acquiring the building. X
Limited redeveloped the building into retail shops for rent under operating leases to independent third
parties. Expenditures on redevelopment were:

(b) `7,00,000 construction costs (including ₹ 40,000 refundable purchase taxes) What is the cost of
the Building as per Ind AS 40? [SM 2021, Ill.-3]
Ans.
As per Ind AS 40, the cost of a purchased investment property comprises its purchase price and any
directly attributable expenditure (e.g. professional fees for legal services, property transfer taxes and
other transaction costs).
Accordingly, cost of the Building is arrived at as under:
Particulars Amount in ₹ Total ₹

SM 3. X Limited purchased a land worth of ₹ 1,00,00,000. It has option either to pay full amount at the time of
purchases or pay for it over two years for a total cost of ₹ 1,20,00,000. What should be the cost of the
building under both the payment methods? [SM 2021, Ill.-4]
Ans.
Using either payment method, the cost will be ₹ 1,00,00,000. If the second payment option is used, ₹
20,00,000 will be treated as interest expenses over the credit period of 2 years.
SM 4. X Ltd. is engaged in the construction industry and prepares its financial statements up to31st March each
year. On 1st April, 20X1, X Ltd. purchased a large property (consisting of land) for ₹ 2,00,00,000 and
immediately began to lease the property to Y Ltd. on an operating lease. Annual rentals were ₹
20,00,000. On 31st March, 20X5, the fair value of the propertywas ₹ 2,60,00,000. Under the terms of the
lease, Y Ltd. was able to cancel the lease by giving six months’ notice in writing to X Ltd. Y Ltd. gave this
notice on 31st March, 20X5 and vacated the property on 30th September, 20X5. On 30th September,
20X5, the fair value of the property was ₹ 2,90,00,000. On 1st October, 20X5, X Ltd. immediately began
to convert the property into ten separate flats of equal size which X Ltd. intended to sell in the ordinary
course of its business. X Ltd. spent a total of ₹ 60,00,000 on this conversion project between30th
September, 20X5 to 31st March, 20X6. The project was incomplete at 31st March, 20X6 and the directors
of X Ltd. estimate that they need to spend a further ₹ 40,00,000 to complete the project, after which
each flat could be sold for ₹ 50,00,000.
Examine and show how the three events would be reported in the financial statements ofX Ltd. for the
year ended 31st March, 20X6 as per Ind AS. [SM 2021, TYK-4]
Ans.
From 1st April, 20X1, the property would be regarded as an investment property since it is being held for
its investment potential rather than being owner occupied or developed for sale.
The property would be measured under the cost model. This means it will be measured at₹ 2,00,00,000 at
each year end.
On 30th September, 20X5, the property ceases to be an investment property. X Ltd. begins to develop it
for sale as flats.
As per para 59 of Ind AS 40, transfers between investment property, owner-occupied property and
inventories do not change the carrying amount of the property transferred and they do not change the
cost of that property for measurement or disclosure purposes. Hence, the carrying value of the
reclassified property will be ₹ 2,00,00,000.
Since the lease of the property is an operating lease, rental income of ₹ 10,00,000 (₹ 20,00,000 x
6/12) would be recognised in P/L for the year ended 31st March, 20X6.
The additional costs of ₹ 60,00,000 for developing the flats which were incurred up to and including 31st
March, 20X6 would be added to the ‘cost’ of inventory to give a closing cost of ₹ 2,60,00,000.
The total selling price of the flats is expected to be ₹ 5,00,00,000 (10 x ₹ 50,00,000). Since the further
costs to develop the flats total ₹ 40,00,000, their net realisable value is₹ 4,60,00,000 (₹ 5,00,00,000
” ₹ 40,00,000), so the flats will be measured at a cost of₹ 2,60,00,000.
SM 5. Shaurya Limited owns a Building A which is specifically used for the purpose of earning rentals. The
Company has not been using the building A or any of its facilities for its own use for a long time. The
company is also exploring the opportunities to sell the building if it gets the reasonable amount in
consideration.
Following information is relevant for Building A for the year ending 31st March, 20X2:
Building A was purchased 5 years ago at the cost of ₹ 10 crores and building life is estimated to be 20
years. The company follows straight line method for depreciation.
During the year, the company has invested in another Building B with the purpose to hold it for capital
appreciation. The property was purchased on 1st April, 20X1 at the cost of
₹ 2 crores. Expected life of the building is 40 years. As usual, the company follows straight line method of
depreciation.
Further, during the year 20X1-20X2 the company earned/incurred following direct operating expenditure
relating to Building A and Building B:
The company does not have any restrictions and contractual obligations against Property - A and B. For
complying with the requirements of Ind AS, the management sought an independent report from the
specialists so as to ascertain the fair value of buildings A and B. The independent valuer has valued the
fair value of property as per the valuation model recommended by International valuation standards
committee. Fair value has been computed by the method by streamlining present value of future cash
flows namely, discounted cash flow method.
Assume that the fair value of properties based on discounted cash flow method is measured at ₹ 10.50
crores. The treatment of fair value of properties is to be given in the financials as per the requirements of
Indian accounting standards.
What would be the treatment of Building A and Building B in the balance sheet of Shaurya Limited?
Provide detailed disclosures and computations in line with relevant Indian accounting standards.
Treat it as if you are preparing a separate note or schedule, of the given assets in the balance sheet.

From 1st April, 20X1, the Company has started to actively market the division and has received number
of serious enquiries. On 1st April, 20X1 the directors estimated that they would receive Rs. 32,00,000
from the sale of the division. Since 1st April, 20X1, market condition has improved and as on 1st
August, 20X1 the Company received and accepted a firm offer to purchase the division for ` 33,00,000.
The sale is expected to be completed on 30th September, 20X1 and ` 33,00,000 can be assumed to be a
reasonable estimate of the value of the division as on 30th June, 20X1. During the period from 1st April
to 30th June inventories of the division costing ` 8,00,000 were sold for ` 12,00,000. At 30th June,
20X1, the total cost of the inventories of the division was ` 9,00,000. All of these inventories have an
estimated net realisable value that is in excess of their cost.
The Company has approached you to suggest how the proposed sale of the division will be reported in
the interim financial statements for the quarter ended 30th June, 20X1 giving relevant explanations.
[SM 2021, TYK-5]
Ans.
The decision to offer the division for sale on 1st April, 20X1 means that from that date the division has
been classified as held for sale. The division available for immediate sale, isbeing actively marketed at a
reasonable price and the sale is expected to be completed within one year.
The consequence of this classification is that the assets of the division will be measured at the lower of
their existing carrying amounts and their fair value less cost to sell. Here the division shall be measured
at their existing carrying amount ie` 30,60,000 since it is less than the fair value less cost to sell `
32,00,000.
The increase in expected selling price will not be accounted for since earlier there was no impairment to
division held for sale.

The assets of the division need to be presented separately from other assets in the balance sheet. Their
major classes should be separately disclosed either on the face of the balance sheet or in the notes.
The Property, Plant and Equipment shall not be depreciated after 1st April, 20X1 so its carrying value at
30th June, 20X1 will be ` 20,00,000 only. The inventories of the division will be shown at ` 9,00,000.
The division will be regarded as discontinued operation for the quarter ended30th June, 20X1. It
represents a separate line of business and is held for sale at the year end.
The Statement of Profit and Loss should disclose, as a single amount, the post-tax profit or loss of the
division on classification as held for sale.
Further, as per Ind AS 33, EPS will also be disclosed separately for the discontinued operation.

SM 7. A company pays each employee a lump-sum one-time benefit upon retirement. This benefit is
computed based on the employee's years in service in the company and the final salary prior to
retirement. To cover its liabilities from this remuneration, the company contributes 3% of annual gross
salaries to the fund. Would this obligation represent a defined contribution plan or a defined benefit
plan and why? [SM 2021, Ill.-9]
Ans.
Defined benefit plan.
Reason: Although the Company pays contributions to the fund to cover its liabilities, amount of
remuneration is determined in advance and Company will have to carry the risk in case the fund's assets
are not sufficient to cover remuneration in full.
SM 8. In accordance with applicable legislation, company contributes 12% and employees 12% of annual gross
salaries to the provident and pension fund. Upon retirement, the employees will get the accumulated
balance that is calculated based on employee's years of service and his average salary for past 15 years
before retirement. The pension will be paid out of the state fund assets and the company has no further
obligation except to make contributions. Would this obligation represent a defined contribution plan or
a defined benefit plan? [SM 2021, Ill.-10]
Ans.
Defined contribution plan.
Reason: Although employee's pension is determined in advance by the formula (and thus
employees neither carry actuarial nor investment risks), Company's liability is limited to contributions to
the fund. In this case, as pension will be paid out of the state fund, it is a state fund which carries all the
risks.
SM 9. Acer Ltd. provides lump-sum remuneration upon retirement to its employees. Remuneration is paid out
of the fund to which Acer Ltd. contributes 12% of annual gross salaries. Contributions are made twice a
year ie in November of the related financial year and in June after the financial year-end. Total annual
gross salaries for 20X0-X1 amounted to ₹ 50 crores. Contribution made by Acer Ltd. in November 20X0
was ₹ 2.8 crores. Remuneration depends on the number of employee's service and amount of cash in
the fund at retirement date (Acer Ltd. has no further obligations except for contributions).
How should this transaction appear in the financial statements of Acer Ltd. as of 31 March 20X1?
[SM 2021, Ill.-11]
Ans.
1. Calculation of accrual for contributions in 20X0-20X1:
Annual gross salaries in 20X0-20X1: ₹ 50.00 crores
Amount of total contributions for 20X0-20X1 (12%): ₹ 6.00 crores

delivery in June 20X2 and there is no delay as at 31st March, 20X1. Hence, there is no present obligation
to pay the penalty in the current year. Therefore, there is no present obligation torecognise the
provision.
SM 2. ABC Ltd. has an obligation to restore the seabed for the damage it has caused in the past. It has to pay `
10,00,000 cash on 31st March 20X3 relating to this liability. ABC Ltd.’s management considers that 5%
is an appropriate discount rate. The time value of money is considered to be material.
Calculate the amount to be provided for at 31st March 20X1 for the costs of restoring the seabed.
[SM 2021, Ill.-8]
Ans.
Discounting factor of 5% for 2nd year as on 31st March 20X1 = (1/1.05)2 = 0.907
The present value of the provision as on 31st March 20X1 is= ` 10,00,000 x 0.907 = ` 9,07,000
The amount of increase in the provision resulting from unwinding of discounting to reflect the passage
of time should be included as an element of borrowing cost in determining the profit or loss for the
year.
The provision should be initially recognised at ` 9,07,000 which is the present value of` 10,00,000
discounted at 5% for two years. At the end of year 1 i.e. 31st March 20X2, the provision increases to `
9,52,350, and the difference of ` 45,350 is recognised as borrowing cost. Similarly, for the year ending
31st March 20X3, the provision will increase to 10,00,000 and the increase being recognised as
borrowing cost. Consequently, at the end of year 2 the amount of provision will be equal to the amount
due, i.e., ` 10,00,000.
Note: There may be some difference in amount due to approximation (limiting discounting factor to 3
place decimal), which can be overcome either by full scale calculation or adjustment at the end.

As per para 72 of Ind AS 37 ‘Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets’, restructuring
includes sale or termination of a line of business. A constructive obligation to restructure arises when:
(a) an entity has a detailed formal plan for the restructuring
(b) has raised a valid expectation in those affected that it will carry out the restructuring by starting
to implement that plan or announcing its main features to those affected by it.
The Board of directors of U Ltd have decided to terminate the operations of G Ltd. from30th April 20X2.
They have made a formal announcement on 15th February 20X2, thus creating a valid expectation that
the termination will be implemented. This creates a constructive obligation on the company and
requires provisions for restructuring.
A restructuring provision includes only the direct expenditures arising from the restructuring that are
necessarily entailed by the restructuring and are not associated with the ongoing activities of the entity.
The termination payments fulfil the above condition. As per Ind AS 10 ‘Events after Reporting Date’,
events that provide additional evidence of conditions existing at the reporting date should be reflected
in the financial statements. Therefore, the company should make a provision for ` 520 lakhs in this
respect.
The relocation costs relate to the future conduct of the business and are not liabilities for restructuring
at the end of the reporting period. Hence, these would be recognised on the same basis as if they arose
independently of a restructuring.
The operating lease would be regarded as an onerous contract. A provision would be made at the lower
of the cost of fulfilling it and any compensation or penalties arising from failure to fulfil it. Hence, a
provision shall be made for ` 410 lakhs.
Further operating losses relate to future events and do not form a part of the closure provision.
Therefore, the total provision required = ` 520 lakhs + ` 410 lakhs = ` 930 lakhs

SM 4. A company manufacturing and supplying process control equipment is entitled to duty draw back if it
exceeds its turnover above a specified limit. To claim duty drawback, the company needs to file
application within 15 days of meeting the specified turnover. If application is not filed within stipulated
time, the Department has discretionary power of giving duty draw back credit. For the year 20X1-20X2
the company has exceeded the specified limit of turnover by the end of the reporting period. However,
duty drawback can be claimed on filing of application within the stipulated time or on discretion of
the Department if filing of application is late. The application for duty drawback is filed on April 20,
20X2, which is after the stipulated time of 15 days of meeting the turnover condition. Duty drawback
has been credited by the Department on June 28, 20X2 and financial statements have been approved by
the Board of Directors of the company on July 26, 20X2. What would be the treatment of duty
drawback credit as per the given information? [SM 2021, TYK-5]
Ans.
In the instant case, the condition of exceeding the specified turnover was met at the end of the
reporting period and the company was entitled for the duty drawback. However, the application for the
same has been filed after the stipulated time. Therefore, credit of duty drawback was discretionary in
the hands of the Department. Since the claim was to be accrued only after filing of application, its
accrual will be considered in the year 20X2-20X3 only.
Accordingly, the duty drawback credit is a contingent asset as at the end of the reporting period 20X1-
20X2, which will be realised when the Department credits the same.
As per para 35 of Ind AS 37, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, contingent
assets are assessed continually to ensure that developments are appropriately reflected in the financial
statements. If it has become virtually certain that an inflow of economic benefits will arise, the asset
and the related income are recognised in the financial statements of the period in which the change
occurs. If an inflow of economic benefits has become probable, an entity discloses the contingent asset.
In accordance with the above, the duty drawback credit which was contingent asset for the F.Y. 20X1-
20X2 should be recognised as asset and related income should be recognized in the reporting period in
which the change occurs. i.e., in the period in which realisation becomes virtually certain, i.e., F.Y. 20X2-
20X3.
SM 5. Entity XYZ entered into a contract to supply 1000 television sets for ` 2 million. An increase in the cost
of inputs has resulted into an increase in the cost of sales to ` 2.5 million. The penalty for non-
performance of the contract is expected to be ` 0.25 million. Is the contract onerous and how much
provision in this regard is required? [SM 2021, TYK-6]
Ans.
Ind AS 37 ‚Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets‛ defines an onerous contract as a
contract in which the unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the
economic benefits expected to be received under it.
Paragraph 68 of Ind AS 37 states that the unavoidable costs under a contract reflect the least net cost of
exiting from the contract, which is the lower of the cost of fulfilling it and any compensation or
penalties arising from failure to fulfill it.
In the instant case, cost of fulfilling the contract is ` 0.5 million (` 2.5 million ” ` 2 million)and cost of
exiting from the contract by paying penalty is ` 0.25 million.
In accordance with the above reproduced paragraph, it is an onerous contract as cost of meeting the
contract exceeds the economic benefits.

Therefore, the provision should be recognised at the best estimate of the unavoidable cost, which is

taxation) of 10% and the expenditure, when incurred, will attract tax relief at the company’s marginal
tax rate of 30%. Marico has not recognised any provision for such costs in the past and today’s date is
31 March 20X2. The first phase of the clean up will commence in a few months time and will be
completed on 31 March 20X3 when the first payment of ` 2 million will be made. Phase 2 costs will be

INCOME TAXES
SM 1. The directors of H wish to recognise a material deferred tax asset in relation to ` 250 Cr of unused
trading losses which have accumulated as at 31st March 20X1. H has budgeted profits for ` 80 Cr for
the year ended 31st March 20X2. The directors have forecast that profits will grow by 20% each year
thereafter. However, the improvement in trading results may occur after the next couple of years to
come at the position of breakeven. The market is currently depressed and sales orders are at a lower
level for the first quarter of 20X2 than they were for the same period in any of the previous five years.
H operates under a tax jurisdiction which allows for trading losses to be only carried forward for a
maximum of two years.
Analyse whether a deferred tax asset can be recognized in the financial statements of H for the year
ended 31st March 20X1? [SM 2021, Ill.-1]
Ans.
In relation to unused trading losses, the carrying amount is zero since the losses have not yet been
recognised in the financial statements of H. A potential deferred tax asset does arise but the
determination of the tax base is more problematic.
The tax base of an asset is the amount which will be deductible against taxable economic benefits from
recovering the carrying amount of the asset. Where recovery of an asset will have no tax consequences,
the tax base is equal to the carrying amount. H operates under a tax jurisdiction which only allows losses
to be carried forward for two years. The maximum the tax base could be is therefore equal to the
amount of unused losses for years 20X0 and 20X1 since these only are available to be deducted from
future profits. The tax base though needs to be restricted to the extent that there is a probability of
sufficient future profits to offset the trading losses. The directors of H should base their forecast of the
future profitability on reasonable and supportable assumptions. There appears to be evidence that this
is not the case.
H has accumulated trading losses and there is little evidence that there will be an improvement in
trading results within the next couple of years. The market is depressed and sales orders for the first
quarter of 20X2 are below levels in any of the previous five years.
The forecast profitability for 20X2 and subsequent growth rate therefore appear to be unrealistically
optimistic.
Given that losses can only be carried forward for a maximum of two years, it is unlikely that any deferred
tax asset should be recognised.
Hence, the contention of directors to recognized deferred tax assets in relation to `250 crores is not
correct.
SM 2. On 1st April 20X1, S Ltd. leased a machine over a 5 year period. The present value of lease liability is `

Striker 3.2 | Additional Question Bank
Ans.
A temporary difference effectively arises between the value of the machine for accounting purposes and
the amount of lease liability, since the rent payment is eligible for tax deduction.
Tax base of the machine is nil as the amount is not eligible for deduction for tax purposes.
Tax base of the lease liability is nil as it is measured at carrying amount less any future tax deductible

SM 3. On 1 April 20X1, A Ltd. acquired 12 Cr shares (representing 80% stake) in B Ltd. by means of a cash
payment of ` 25 Cr. It is the group policy to value the non-controlling interest in subsidiaries at the date
of acquisition at fair value. The market value of an equity share in B Ltd. at 1 April 20X1 can be used for
this purpose. On 1 April 20X1, the market value of a B Ltd. share was ` 2.00
On 1 April 20X1, the individual financial statements of B Ltd. showed the net assets at` 23 Cr.
The directors of A Ltd. carried out a fair value exercise to measure the identifiable assets and liabilities of
B Ltd. at 1 April 20X1. The following matters emerged:
Property having a carrying value of ` 15 Cr at 1 April 20X1 had an estimated market value of ` 18 Cr
at that date.
Plant and equipment having a carrying value of ` 1 Cr at 1 April 20X1 had an estimated market value
of ` 13 Cr at that date.
Inventory in the books of B Ltd. is shown at a cost of ` 2.50 Cr. The fair value of the inventory on the
acquisition date is ` 3 Cr.
The fair value adjustments have not been reflected in the individual financial statements of B Ltd. In the
consolidated financial statements, the fair value adjustments will be regarded as temporary differences
for the purposes of computing deferred tax. The rate of deferred tax to apply to temporary differences
is 20%.

ended 31 March 20X2:
(i) A Ltd has a 40% shareholding in L Ltd. A Ltd purchased this shareholding for ` 45 Cr. The
shareholding gives A Ltd significant influence over L Ltd but not control and therefore A Ltd.
accounts for its interest in L Ltd using the equity method. The equity method carrying value of A
Ltd’s investment in L Ltd was ` 70 Cr on 31 March 20X1 and ` 75 Cr on 31 March 20X2. In the tax
jurisdiction in which A Ltd operates, profits recognised under the equity method are taxed if and
when they are distributed as a dividend or the relevant investment is disposed of.
(ii) A Ltd. measures its head office building using the revaluation model. The building is revalued
every year on 31 March. On 31 March 20X1, carrying value of the building (after revaluation) was
` 40 Cr and its tax base was ` 22 Cr. During the year ended 31 March 20X2, A Ltd charged

depreciation in its statement of profit or loss of ` 2 Cr and claimed a tax deduction for tax
depreciation of ` 1.25 Cr. On 31 March 20X2, the building was revalued to ` 45 Cr. In the tax
jurisdiction in which A Ltd operates, revaluation of property, plant and equipment does not
affect taxable income at the time of revaluation.
Basis the above information, you are required to compute:
(a) The deferred tax liability of A Ltd at 31 March 20X2
(b) The charge or credit to both profit or loss and other comprehensive income relating to deferred tax
for the year ended 31 March 20X2 [SM 2021, Ill.-8]
Ans.
(A) Deferred Tax Liability as at 31st March 20X2
Investment in L Ltd:
Carrying Amount = ` 75 Cr
Tax base = ` 45 Cr (Purchase cost)
Temporary Difference = ` 30 Cr
Since carrying amount is higher than the tax base, the temporary difference is recognized as a
taxable temporary difference. Using the tax rate of 20%, a deferred tax liability of ` 6 Cr is
recognized:
Since carrying amount is higher than the tax base, the temporary difference is recognized as a
taxable temporary difference. Using the tax rate of 20%, a deferred tax liability of ` 4.85 Cr is
created.

The reduction in this liability is ` 0.15 Cr (` 3.6 Cr ” ` 3.45 Cr). This would be credited to income tax
expense in arriving at profit or loss.
Post revaluation, the carrying value of the building becomes ` 45 Cr and the tax base stays the same.
Therefore, the new deferred tax liability is ` 4.85 Cr (20% x (` 45 Cr ” ` 20.75Cr)). The increase in the
deferred tax liability of ` 1.4 Cr (` 4.85 Cr ” ` 3.45 Cr) is charged to other comprehensive income.
SM 7. K Ltd prepares consolidated financial statements to 31st March each year. During the year ended31st
March 20X2, K Ltd entered into the following transactions:
(a) On 1st April 20X1, K Ltd purchased an equity investment for ` 2,00,000. The investment was
designated as fair value through other comprehensive income. On 31st March 20X2, the fair
value of the investment was ` 2,40,000. In the tax jurisdiction in which K Ltd operates,
unrealised gains and losses arising on the revaluation of investments of this nature are not
taxable unless the investment is sold. K Ltd has no intention of selling the investment in the
foreseeable future.
(b) On 1st August 20X1, K Ltd sold products to A Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary operating in the
same tax jurisdiction as K Ltd, for ` 80,000. The goods had cost to K Ltd for ` 64,000. By31st
March 20X2, A Ltd had sold 40% of these goods, selling the remaining during next year.
(c) On 31st October 20X1, K Ltd received ` 2,00,000 from a customer. This payment was in respect
of services to be provided by K Ltd from 1st November 20X1 to 31st July 20X2. K Ltd recognised
revenue of ` 1,20,000 in respect of this transaction in the year ended 31st March 20X2 and will
recognise the remainder in the year ended 31st March 20X3. Under the tax jurisdiction in which K
Ltd operates, ` 2,00,000 received on 31st October 20X1 was included in the taxable profits of K
Ltd for the year ended 31st March 20X2.
Explain and show how the tax consequences (current and deferred) of the three transactions would be
reported in its statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended31st
March 20X2. Assume tax rate to be 25%. [SM 2021, Ill.-9]
Ans.
(a) Because the unrealised gain on revaluation of the equity investment is not taxable until sold,
there are no current tax consequences. The tax base of the investment is ` 2,00,000. The
revaluation creates a taxable temporary difference of ` 40,000 (` 2,40,000 ” ` 2,00,000).
This creates a deferred tax liability of ` 10,000 (` 40,000 x 25%). The liability would be non-
current. The fact that there is no intention to dispose of the investment does not affect the
accounting treatment. Because the unrealised gain is reported in other comprehensive income,
the related deferred tax expense is also reported in other comprehensive income.
(b) When K Ltd sold the products to A Ltd, K Ltd would have generated a taxable profit of ` 16,000
(` 80,000 ” ` 64,000). This would have created a current tax liability for K Ltd and the group of `
4,000 (` 16,000 x 25%). This liability would be shown as a current liability and charged as an
expense in arriving at profit or loss for the period.
In the consolidated financial statements the carrying value of the unsold inventory would be`
38,400 (` 64,000 x 60%). The tax base of the unsold inventory would be ` 48,000 (`
80,000 x 60%). In the consolidated financial statements there would be a deductible temporary
difference of ` 9,600 (` 38,400 ” ` 48,000) and a potential deferred tax asset of` 2,400 (` 9,600 x
25%). This would be recognised as a deferred tax asset since A Ltd is expected to generate
sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the deductible temporary difference. The
resulting credit would reduce consolidated deferred tax expense in arriving at profit or loss.
(c) The receipt of revenue in advance on 1st October 20X1 would create a current tax liability of`
50,000 (` 200,000 x 25%) as at 31st March 20X2. The carrying value of the revenue received in

advance at 31st March 20X2 is ` 80,000 (` 200,000 ” ` 120,000). Its tax base is nil. The deductible
temporary difference of ` 80,000 would create a deferred tax asset of ` 20,000 (`80,000 x 25%).
The asset can be recognised because K Ltd has sufficient taxable profitsagainst which to utilise
the deductible temporary difference.
SM 8. X Ltd. prepares consolidated financial statements to 31st March each year. During the year ended 31st
March 2018, the following events affected the tax position of the group:
(i) Y Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of X Ltd., made a loss adjusted for tax purposes of` 30,00,000.
Y Ltd. is unable to utilise this loss against previous tax liabilities. Income- tax Act does not allow
Y Ltd. to transfer the tax loss to other group companies. However, it allows Y Ltd. to carry the
loss forward and utilise it against company’s future taxable profits. The directors of X Ltd. do not
consider that Y Ltd. will make taxable profits in the foreseeable future.
(ii) Just before 31st March, 2018, X Ltd. committed itself to closing a division after the year end,
making a number of employees redundant. Therefore, X Ltd. recognised a provision for closure
costs of ` 20,00,000 in its statement of financial position as at 31st March,2018. Income-tax Act
allows tax deductions for closure costs only when the closureactually takes place. In the year
ended 31st March 2019, X Ltd. expects to make taxable profits which are well in excess of `
20,00,000. On 31st March, 2018, X Ltd. had taxable temporary differences from other sources
which were greater than ` 20,00,000.
(iii) During the year ended 31st March, 2017, X Ltd. capitalised development costs which satisfied
the criteria in paragraph 57 of Ind AS 38 ‘Intangible Assets’. The total amount capitalised was `
16,00,000. The development project began to generate economic benefits for X Ltd. from 1st
January, 2018. The directors of X Ltd. estimated that the project would generate economic
benefits for five years from that date. The development expenditure was fully deductible
against taxable profits for the year ended 31st March,2018.
(iv) On 1st April, 2017, X Ltd. borrowed ` 1,00,00,000. The cost to X Ltd. of arranging the borrowing
was ` 2,00,000 and this cost qualified for a tax deduction on 1st April, 2017. The loan was for a
three-year period. No interest was payable on the loan but the amount repayable on 31st March,
2020 will be ` 1,30,43,800. This equates to an effective annual interest rate of 10%. As per the
Income-tax Act, a further tax deduction of ` 30,43,800 will be claimable when the loan is repaid
on 31st March, 2020.
Explain and show how each of these events would affect the deferred tax assets / liabilities in the
consolidated balance sheet of X Ltd. group at 31st March, 2018 as per Ind AS. Assume the rate of
corporate income tax is 20%. [SM 2021, TYK-7]
Ans.
(i) The tax loss creates a potential deferred tax asset for the group since its carrying value is nil and
its tax base is ` 30,00,000.
However, no deferred tax asset can be recognised because there is no prospect of being able to
reduce tax liabilities in the foreseeable future as no taxable profits are anticipated.
(ii) The provision creates a potential deferred tax asset for the group since its carrying value is `
20,00,000 and its tax base is nil.
This deferred tax asset can be recognised because X Ltd. is expected to generate taxable profits
in excess of ` 20,00,000 in the year to 31st March, 2019.
The amount of the deferred tax asset will be ` 4,00,000 (` 20,00,000 x 20%).
This asset will be presented as a deduction from the deferred tax liabilities caused by the(larger)
taxable temporary differences.
(iii) The development costs have a carrying value of ` 15,20,000 (` 16,00,000 ” (` 16,00,000 x

and a potential deferred tax asset of ` 1,56,000 (` 7,80,000 x 20%).
Due to the availability of taxable profits next year (see part (ii) above), this asset can be
recognised as a deduction from deferred tax liabilities.

the group:
QPR Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of PQR Ltd., incurred a loss adjusted for tax purposes of `
30,00,000. QPR Ltd. is unable to utilise this loss against previous tax liabilities. Income-tax Act does
not allow QPR Ltd. to transfer the tax loss to other group companies. However, it allows QPR Ltd. to
carry the loss forward and utilise it against company’s future taxable profits. The directors of PQR
Ltd. do not consider that QPR Ltd. will make taxable profits in the foreseeable future.
During the year ended 31st March, 2018, PQR Ltd. capitalised development costs which satisfied the

SM 10. An entity is finalising its financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 20X2. Before 31st March,
20X2, the government announced that the tax rate was to be amended from 40 per cent to 45 per cent
of taxable profit from 30th June, 20X2.
The legislation to amend the tax rate has not yet been approved by the legislature. However, the
government has a significant majority and it is usual, in the tax jurisdiction concerned, to regard an
announcement of a change in the tax rate as having the substantive effect of actual enactment (i.e. it is
substantively enacted).
After performing the income tax calculations at the rate of 40 per cent, the entity has the following
deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances:
Deferred tax asset ` 80,000
Deferred tax liability ` 60,000
Of the deferred tax asset balance, ` 28,000 related to a temporary difference. This deferred tax asset
had previously been recognised in OCI and accumulated in equity as a revaluation surplus.
The entity reviewed the carrying amount of the asset in accordance with para 56 of Ind AS 12 and
determined that it was probable that sufficient taxable profit to allow utilisation of the deferred tax
asset would be available in the future.

THE EFFECTS OF CHANGES IN FOREIGN EXCHANGE RATES
SM 1. M Ltd is engaged in the business of manufacturing of bottles for pharmaceutical companies and non-
pharmaceutical companies. It has a wholly owned subsidiary, G Ltd, which is engaged in the business of
pharmaceuticals. G Ltd purchases the pharmaceutical bottles from its parent company. The
demand of G Ltd is very high and the operations of M Ltd are very large and hence to cater to its
shortfall, G Ltd also purchases the bottles from other companies. Purchases are made at the
competitive prices.
M Ltd sold pharmaceuticals bottles to G Ltd for Euro 12 lacs on 1st February, 20X1. The cost of these
bottles was ` 830 lacs in the books of M Ltd at the time of sale. At the year-end i.e.31st March, 20X1, all

SM 3. On 1st January, 2018, P Ltd. purchased a machine for $ 2 lakhs. The functional currency of P Ltd. is
Rupees. At that date the exchange rate was $1= ` 68. P Ltd. is not required to pay for this purchase
until 30th June, 2018. Rupees strengthened against the $ in the three months following purchase and
by 31st March, 2018 the exchange rate was $1 = ` 65. CFO of P Ltd. feels that these exchange
fluctuations wouldn’t affect the financial statements because P Ltd. has an asset and a liability
denominated in rupees. which was initially the same amount. He also feels that P Ltd. depreciates this
machine over four years so the future year-end amounts won’t be the same.
Examine the impact of this transaction on the financial statements of P Ltd. for the year ended 31st
March, 2018 as per Ind AS. [SM 2021, TYK-5]
Ans.
As per Ind AS 21 ‘The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates’ the asset and liability would initially
be recognised at the rate of exchange in force at the transaction date ie1st January, 2018. Therefore,
the amount initially recognised would be ` 1,36,00,000 ($ 2,00000 x ` 68).
The liability is a monetary item so it is retranslated using the rate of exchange in force at31st March,
2018. This makes the closing liability of ` 1,30,00,000 ($ 2,00,000 x ` 65).
The loss on re-translation of ` 6,00,000 (` 1,36,00,000 ” ` 1,30,00,000) is recognised in theStatement of
profit or loss.
The machine is a non-monetary asset carried at historical cost. Therefore, it continues to be translated
using the rate of ` 68 to $ 1.
Depreciation of ` 8,50,000 (` 1,36,00,000 x ¼ x 3/12) would be charged to profit or loss for the year
ended 31st March, 2018.
The closing balance in property, plant and equipment would be ` 1,27,50,000 (` 1,36,00,000” ` 8,50,000).
This would be shown as a non-current asset in the statement of financial position.

Ind AS 24 ‘Related Party Disclosures’ identifies related parties as, inter alia, key management
personnel and companies controlled by key management personnel. On this basis, PQR Ltd. is a related
party of ABC Ltd.
The transaction is required to be disclosed in the financial statements of ABC Ltd. since Mr. Y is Key
Management personnel of ABC Ltd. Also at the same time, it owns 100% shares of PQR Ltd. ie. he

Where transactions occur with related parties, Ind AS 24 requires that details of the transactions are
disclosed in Notes to the financial statements. This is required even if the transactions are carried out on

requirements in relation to related party transactions and outstanding balances, including
commitments, with:
(i) a government that has control or joint control of, or significant influence over,
thereporting entity; and
(ii) another entity that is a related party because the same government has control or joint

SM 4. S Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of P Ltd is the sole distributor of electricity to consumers in a specified
geographical area. A manufacturing facility of P Ltd is located in the said geographical area and,
accordingly, P Ltd is also a consumer of electricity supplied by S Ltd. The electricity tariffs for the
geographical area are determined by an independent rate-setting authority and are applicable to all
consumers of S Ltd, including P Ltd. Whether the above transaction is required to be disclosed as a
related party transaction as per Ind AS 24, Related Party Disclosures in the financial statements of S
Ltd.? [SM 2021, TYK-7]
Ans.
As per paragraph 9(b)(i) of Ind AS 24, each parent, subsidiary and fellow subsidiary in a‘group’ is related
to the other members of the group. Thus, in the case under discussion, P Ltd is a related party of S Ltd
from the perspective of financial statements of S Ltd.
Paragraph 11 of Ind AS 24 states as follows:
‚In the context of this Standard, the following are not related parties:
(a) two entities simply because they have a director or other member of management personnel in
common or because a member of key management personnel of one entity has significant
influence over the other entity.
(b) two joint venturers simply because they share joint control of a joint venture.
(c) (i) providers of finance,(ii) trade unions, (iii) public utilities, and (iv) departments and agencies of
a government that does not control, jointly control or significantly influence the reporting
entity, simply by virtue of their normal dealings with an entity (even though they may affect the
freedom of action of an entity or participate in its decision-making process).
(d) a customer, supplier, franchisor, distributor or general agent with whom an entity transacts
a significant volume of business, simply by virtue of the resulting economic dependence.‛
Being engaged in distribution of electricity, S Ltd is a public utility. Had the only relationship
between S Ltd and P Ltd been that of a supplier and a consumer of electricity, P Ltd would not
have been regarded as a related party of S Ltd. However, as per the facts of the given case, this is
not the only relationship between S Ltd and P Ltd. Apart from being a supplier of electricity to P
Ltd., S Ltd is also a subsidiary of P Ltd; this is a relationship that is covered within the related
party relationships to which the disclosure requirements of the standard apply. In view of the
above, the supply of electricity by S Ltd to P Ltd is a related party transaction that attracts the
disclosure requirements contained in paragraph 18 and other relevant requirements of the
standard. This is notwithstanding the fact that P Ltd is charged the electricity tariffs determined
by an independent rate-setting authority (i.e., the terms of supply to P Ltd are at par with those
applicable to other consumers)
Ind AS 24 does not exempt an entity from disclosing related party transactions merely
because they have been carried out on an arm’s length basis.

OPERATING SEGMENTS
SM 1. The CEO along with other Board members do a review of financial information about various business
segments and take decisions on the basis of discrete information available for these segments and are
correctly identified as Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM). Review of only revenue information is
done for decision making about those segments by the CODM. As per CODM, many segments require
minimal costs due to centralization of costs. Whether review of only the revenue related information is
sufficient for these segments to be considered as operating segments for the purposes of Ind AS 108
‘Operating Segments’? [SM 2021, Ill.-2]
Ans.
Many entities would be considering the decision making for segments on the basis of revenue growth ”
especially the ones aggressively trying to build a market share. Common examples would be businesses
into technology sector or those creating or launching new products from time to time. For them, the
decision making for different regional segments would need revenue growth and related information for
further investment decision.
The logic given by the CODM is that since many segments require minimal costs (due to centralization of
costs), therefore, revenue-only data is a fair representation of the operating results.
In the above case, review of the information that is based only on revenue data may be appropriate to
consider that the segment meets the definition of an operating segment.
SM 2. CODM of XY Ltd. receives and reviews multiple sets of information when assessing the
businesses’overall performance to take a decision on resources allocation. It receives the information as

Level 3 Report: Detailed report for 50 Branches within the sub-regions
What factors and level should be considered for determining an operating segment? [SM 2021, Ill.-4]
Ans.
We need to consider multiple factors (including but not limited to below):
The process that CODM may use to assess the performance (Key Financial Matrix, KPIs, Ratio etc.);

SM 3. XY Ltd. has operations in France, Italy, Germany, UK and India. It wishes to apply aggregation criteria on
geographical basis.
How will the aggregation criteria apply for reporting segments in the given scenario? [SM 2021, Ill.-5]
Ans.
XY Ltd. needs to assess and prove that each country possesses the same economic characteristics.
Factors including exchange control regulations, currency risks and economic conditions are required to
be considered.
Considering above factors, it may be possible to aggregate the results of France, Italy and
Germany (falling within EU region) and results of UK and India may be separately reported (no
aggregation is permitted).
SM 4. T Ltd is engaged in transport sector, running a fleet of buses at different routes. T Ltd has identified

Striker 3.2 | Additional Question Bank
Segment 2: T Ltd operates buses from one city to another, prices are set by T Ltd on the basis of services
provided (Deluxe, Luxury or Superior).
While Segment 1 has been showing significant decline in profitability, Segment 2 is performing well in
respect of higher revenues and improved margins. The management of the company is not sure why is
the segment information relevant for users when they should only be concerned about the returns from
overall business. They would like to aggregate the Segment 1 and Segment2 for reporting
under‘Operating Segment’
Required:
Whether it is appropriate to aggregate Segments 1 and 2 with reference to Ind AS 108 ‘Operating
Segments’? and
Discuss, in the above context, whether disclosure of segment information is relevant to an
investor’s appraisal of financial statements? [SM 2021, Ill.-7]
Ans.
Ind AS 108 ‘Operating Segments’ requires operating segments to be aggregated to present a reportable
segment if the segments have similar economic characteristics, and the segments are similar in each of
the following aggregation criteria:
(a) The nature of the products and services
(b) The nature of the production process
(c) The type or class of customer for their products and services
(d) The methods used to distribute their products or provide their services
(e) If applicable, the nature of the regulatory environment
While the products and services are similar, the customers for those products and services are different.
In Segment 1, the decision to award the contract is in the hands of the local authority, which also sets
prices and pays for the services. The company is not exposed to passenger revenue risk, since a contract
is awarded by competitive tender.
On the other hand, in the inter-city segment, the customer determines whether a bus route is
economically viable by choosing whether or not to buy tickets. T Ltd sets the ticket prices but will be
affected by customer behavior or feedback. T Ltd is exposed to passenger revenue-risk, as it sets prices
which customers may or may not choose to pay.
Operating Segment provides information that makes the financial statements more useful to investors.
In making the investment decisions, investors and creditors consider the returns they are likely to make
on their investment. This requires assessment of the amount, timing and uncertainty of the future cash
flows of T Ltd as well as of management's stewardship of T Ltd’s resources. How management derives
profit is therefore relevant information to an investor.

Striker 3.2 – SM 2021 – Newly Added / Modified Questions Bank by CA SJ
statements, therefore it provides additional information which aids an investor's understanding of how
the business operates and is managed.
In T Ltd.’s case, if the segments are aggregated, then the increased profits in segment 2 will hide the
decreased profits in segment 1. However, the fact that profits have sharply declined in segment 1
would be of interest to investors as it may suggest that future cash flows from this segment are at risk.
SM 5. An entity has branches in different parts of the country ” catering to different customers and selling
local made products (a product of one region is not sold in any other region). No region or product
contributes more than 5% to total revenue of the entity.
Discuss how many segments are reportable? [SM 2021, Ill.-9]
Ans.
Under the quantitative threshold, external revenue of reportable segments must be ≥ 75% of total
external revenue of the entity. Considering above case, minimum 15 operating segments need to be
reportable (75% [threshold] / 5% {revenue}).
SM 6. GH Ltd. has four distinct operating segments. The management of GH is concerned as it is unsure on how
common costs be reasonably allocated to different operating segments. They intend to allocate
management charges, interest costs of internal funding, cost of management of properties and pension
costs.
Whether such costs need to conform to the accounting policies as used to prepare the financial
statements? [SM 2021, Ill.-10]
Ans.
Ind AS 108 does not prescribe any specific basis but suggests that a reasonable basis to be used in
allocation of common costs. Here, it may not be reasonable to allocate management charges to most
profitable segment. However, it may be reasonable to charge interest costs of internalfunding on the
basis of actual usage over time, even if majority of funds are used for running a loss-making segment.
Interest costs: As mentioned above, these may be allocated on the basis of actual usage and time.
SM 7. X Ltd. has identified 4 operating segments for which revenue data is given below:
126 Download from www.fast.edu.in – Download Section By CA. Sarthak Niraj Jain
Striker 3.2 | Additional Question Bank
Which of the segments would be reportable under the criteria identified in Ind AS 108?
[SM 2021, TYK-1 Modified]
Ans.
Threshold amount is ` 10,00,000 (` 1,00,00,000 × 10%).
Segment A exceeds the quantitative threshold (` 30,00,000 > ` 10,00,000) and hence reportable
segment.
Segment D exceeds the quantitative threshold (` 54,00,000 > ` 10,00,000) and hence reportable
segment.
Segment B & C do not meet the quantitative threshold amount and may not be classified as reportable
segment.
However, the total external revenue generated by these two segments A & D represent only70% [(`
35,00,000 / 50,00,000) x 100] of the entity’s total external revenue. If the total external revenue
reported by operating segments constitutes less than 75% of the entity total external revenue,
additional operating segments should be identified as reportable segments until at least 75% of the
revenue is included in reportable segments.
In case of X Ltd., it is given that Segment C is a new business unit and management expect this segment
to make a significant contribution to external revenue in coming years. Inaccordance with the
requirement of Ind AS 108, X Ltd. designates this start-up segment C as a reportable segment, making
the total external revenue attributable to reportable segments87% [(` 43,50,000/ 50,00,000) x 100] of
total entity revenues.
In this situation, Segments A, C and D will be reportable segments and Segment B will be shown as other
segment.
Alternatively, segment B can be considered as a reportable segment as well as it meets the definition of
operating segment. If Segment B is considered as reportable segment:
External revenue reported: ` 30,00,000 + ` 6,50,000 + ` 5,00,000 = ` 41,50,000
% of Total External Revenue = ` 41,50,000 / ` 50,00,000 = 83%
Accordingly, Segments A, B and D will be reportable segments and Segment C will be shown as other
segment.

SM 9. An entity uses the weighted average cost formula to assign costs to inventories and cost of goods sold
for financial reporting purposes, but the reports provided to the chief operating decision maker use the
First-In, First-Out (FIFO) method for evaluating the performance of segment operations. Which cost
formula should be used for Ind AS 108 disclosure purposes? [SM 2021, TYK-3]
Ans.
The entity should use First-In, First-Out (FIFO) method for its Ind AS 108 disclosures, even though it uses
the weighted average cost formula for measuring inventories for inclusion in its financial statements.
Where chief operating decision maker uses only one measure of segment asset, same measure should be
used to report segment information. Accordingly, in the given case, the method used in preparing
the financial information for the chief operating decision maker should be used for reporting under
Ind AS 108.
However, reconciliation between the segment results and results as per financial statements needs to be
given by the entity in its segment report.

BUSINESS COMBINATION
SM 1. Veera Limited and Zeera Limited are both in the business of manufacturing and selling of Lubricant.
Shareholders of Veera Limited and Zeera Limited agreed to join forces to benefit from lower delivery
and distribution costs. The business combination is carried out by setting up a new entity called Meera
Limited that issues 100 shares to Veera Limited shareholders and 50 shares to Zeera Limited
shareholders in exchange for the transfer of the shares in those entities. The number of shares reflects
the relative fair values of the entities before thecombination. Also respective company’s shareholders
get the voting rights in Meera Limited based on their respective shareholdings.
Determine the acquirer by applying the principles of Ind AS 103 ‘Business Combinations’
[SM 2021, Ill.-5]
Ans.
As per para B15 of Ind AS 103, in a business combination effected primarily by exchanging equity
interests, the acquirer is usually the entity that issues its equity interests. However, in some business
combinations, commonly called ‘reverse acquisitions’, the issuing entity is the acquiree. Other pertinent
facts and circumstances shall also be considered in identifying the acquirer in a business combination
effected by exchanging equity interests, including:
The relative voting rights in the combined entity after the business combination - The acquirer is usually
the combining entity whose owners as a group retain or receive the largest portion of the voting rights in
the combined entity.
Based on above mentioned para, acquirer shall be the either of the combining entities (i.e. Veera Limited
or Zeera Limited) whose owners as a Group retain or receive the largest portion of the voting rights in
the combined entity.
Hence in the above scenario Veera Limited shareholder gets 67% Share [(100/150) x100] and Zeera
Limited shareholder gets 33.33% share in Meera Limited. Hence Veera Limited is acquirer as per the
principles of Ind AS 103.
The fair value of Sita Ltd is ` 100 crores and fair value of Beta Ltd is ` 80 crores. The fair value of net
identifiable assets of Beta Limited is ` 70 crores. Assume non-controlling Interest (NCI) to be measured
at fair value.
You are required to determine the goodwill to be recognised on acquisition. [SM 2021, Ill.-12]
Ans.
Sita Ltd has more Board members and thereby have majority control in DLC. Therefore, Sita Ltd is
identified as acquirer and Beta Ltd as acquiree.
Since no consideration has been transferred, the goodwill needs to be calculated as the difference of
Part A and Part B:
Part A:
1) Consideration paid by Acquirer. - Nil
2) Controlling Interest in Acquiree ” ` 80 crores
3) Acquirer’s previously held interest - Nil

SM 3. How will the financial statement of the prior periods be restated under common control in the following
scenarios:
a) Common Control period extends beyond the start of comparative period
XYZ Ltd acquired PQR Ltd in a common control transaction on 1 October 20X9. The year-end of
XYZ Ltd is 31 March. Both XYZ Ltd and PQR Ltd have been controlled by shareholders since
their incorporation.
b) Common Control period started in the comparative period
ABC Ltd acquired DEF Ltd in a common control transaction on 1 October 20X9. The year end of
ABC Ltd is 31 March. Both ABC Ltd and DEF Ltd are controlled by shareholder A. A made
investment in ABC Ltd in 20X0 and made investment in DEF Ltd on 1 October 20X8.
[SM 2021, Ill.-34]
Ans.
Paragraph 9(iii) of Appendix C to Ind AS 103 states that the financial information in the financial
statements in respect of prior periods should be restated as if the business combination had
occurred from the beginning of the preceding period in the financial statements, irrespective of the
actual date of the combination. However, if business combination had occurred after that date, the prior
period information shall be restated only from that date.
a) In accordance with Paragraph 9(iii) above, the entity will be required to restate its financial
statements as if the business combination had occurred from the beginning of the
preceding period in the financial statements, accordingly in the present case XYZ Ltd will have to
restate its comparatives for the financial year 20X8-20X9 as if the acquisition had occurred
before1 April 20X8. Additionally, the results of current year of PQR Ltd will be required to
include XYZ'sfinancial statements for the period from 1 April 20X9 to 30 September 20X9.
b) In accordance with paragraph 9(iii) above, ABC Ltd will have to restate its comparatives for the
financial year ended 20X8-20X9 as if the acquisition had occurred on 1 October 20X8, but not
earlier. Additionally, the results of current year of DEF Ltd will be required to include the
financialstatements of ABC Ltd for the period from 1 April 20X9 to 1 October 20X9.
SM 4. Entity A owns 100% equity shares of entity B since 01.04.20X1. Entity A arranges loan funding from a
financial institution in a new wholly-owned subsidiary called ‚Entity C‛. The loan is used by Entity C to
acquire 100% shareholding in entity B, for cash consideration of ` 2,00,000. Entity A applies Ind AS 103
to account for common control transactions and Entity C will adopt the same policy. Fair Value of Net
identifiable Assets is ` 1,50,000 and Carrying Value of Net Identifiable Assets is ` 1,00,000.
How will Entity C apply acquisition accounting in its consolidated financial statements?
[SM 2021, Ill.-35]
Ans.
As per para 2 of appendix C of Ind AS 103, Common control business combination means a business
combination involving entities or businesses in which all the combining entities or businesses are
ultimately controlled by the same party or parties both before and after the business combination,
and that control is not transitory.
In the above scenario, the Entity A controls Entity B before and after the acquisition. After acquisition,
entity A controls entity B through entity C.

Striker 3.2 | Additional Question Bank
As per para 8 of appendix C of Ind AS 103, Business combinations involving entities or businesses under
common control shall be accounted for using the pooling of interest method.
As per para 9(i) of appendix C of Ind AS 103, the pooling of interest method is considered to involve the
assets and liabilities of the combining entities are reflected at their carrying amounts.
Based on the above analysis, Entity C cannot be the acquirer. Entity A has created Entity C and is the
seller, so Entity C has effectively been formed and issued shares to effect the business combination.
Entity C is not a business and the transaction between entity B and Entity C is not a business
combination. It is a reorganisation of entity B. As a result, entity B’s assets and liabilities are included
in Entity C consolidated financial statements at their pre-combinationcarrying amounts without a fair
value uplift.
SM 5. Entity A and entity B provide construction services in India. Entity A is owned by a group of individuals,
none of whom has control and does not have a collective control agreement. Entity B is owned by a
single individual, Mr. Ram. The owners of entities A and B have decided to combine their businesses.
The consideration will be settled in shares of entity B. Entity B issues new shares, amounting to 40% of
its issued share capital, to its controlling shareholder, Mr. Ram. Mr. Ram then transfers the shares
to the owners of entity A in exchange for their interest in entity A. At this point Mr. Ram controls
both entities A and B, owning 100% of entity A and 71.42% of entity B. Mr. Ram had a controlling
interest in both entity A and entity B before and after the contribution. Is the combination of entities A
and B a combination of entities under common control? [SM 2021, TYK-7]
Ans.
No. This is not a business combination of entities under common control. Mr. Ram’s control of both
entities before the business combination was transitory. The substance of the transaction is that
entity B has obtained control of entity A. Entity B accounts for this transaction as a business
combination under Ind AS 103 using acquisition accounting.
SM 6. On 1 April 20X1, Alpha Ltd. acquires 80 percent of the equity interest of Beta Pvt. Ltd. in exchange for
cash of ` 300. Due to legal compulsion, Beta Pvt. Ltd. had to dispose of their investments by a specified
date. Therefore, they did not have sufficient time to market Beta Pvt. Ltd. to multiple potential buyers.
The management of Alpha Ltd. initially measures the separately recognizable identifiable assets
acquired and the liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date in accordance with the requirement of Ind
AS 103. The identifiable assets are measured at ` 500 and the liabilities assumed are measured at ` 100.
Alpha Ltd. engages on independent consultant, who determined that the fair value of 20 per cent non-
controlling interest in Beta Pvt. Ltd. is ` 84.Alpha Ltd. reviewed the procedures it used to identify and
measure the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and to measure the fair value of both the non
controlling interest in Beta Pvt. Ltd. and the consideration transferred. After the review, it decided that
the procedures and resulting measures were appropriate.
Calculate the gain or loss on acquisition of Beta Pvt. Ltd. and also show the journal entries for
accounting of its acquisition. Also calculate the value of the non-controlling interest in Beta Pvt. Ltd. on
the basis of proportionate interest method, if alternatively applied? [SM 2021, TYK-8]
Ans.
The amount of Beta Pvt. Ltd. identifiable net assets [`400, calculated as `500 - `100) exceeds the fair
value of the consideration transferred plus the fair value of the non controlling interest in Beta
Pvt. Ltd. [`384 calculated as 300 + 84]. Alpha Ltd. measures the gain on its purchase of the 80 per cent
interest as follows:

If the acquirer chose to measure the non controlling interest in Beta Pvt. Ltd. on the basis of its
proportionate interest in the identifiable net assets of the acquire, the recognized amount of the non
controlling interest would be `80 (`400 x 0.20). The gain on the bargain purchase then would be

SM 7. ABC Ltd. prepares consolidated financial statements upto 31st March each year. On1st July 20X1,
ABC Ltd. acquired 75% of the equity shares of JKL Ltd. and gained control of JKL Ltd. the issued
shares of JKL Ltd. is 1,20,00,000 equity shares. Details of the purchase consideration are as
follows:
On 1st July, 20X1, ABC Ltd. issued two shares for every three shares acquired in JKL Ltd. On 1st
July, 20X1, the market value of an equity share in ABC Ltd. was ` 6.50 and the market value of an
equity share in JKL Ltd. was ` 6.
On 30th June, 20X2, ABC Ltd. will make a cash payment of ` 71,50,000 to the former shareholders
of JKL Ltd. who sold their shares to ABC Ltd. on 1st July, 20X1. On 1st July, 20X1, ABC Ltd. would
have to pay interest at an annual rate of 10% on borrowings.
On 30th June, 20X3, ABC Ltd. may make a cash payment of ` 3,00,00,000 to the former
shareholders of JKL Ltd. who sold their shares to ABC Ltd. on 1st July, 20X1. This payment is
contingent upon the revenues of ABC Ltd. growing by 15% over the two-year period from 1st July,
20X1 to 30th June, 20X3. On 1st July, 20X1, the fair value of this contingent consideration was `
2,50,00,000. On 31st March, 20X2, the fair value of the contingent consideration was ` 2,20,00,000.
On 1st July, 20X1, the carrying values of the identifiable net assets of JKL Ltd. in the books of that
company was ` 6,00,00,000. On 1st July, 20X1, the fair values of these net assets was ` 7,00,00,000.
The rate of deferred tax to apply to temporary differences is 20%.
During the nine months ended on 31st March, 20X2, JKL Ltd. had a poorer than expected operating
performance. Therefore, on 31st March, 20X2 it was necessary for ABC Ltd. to recognise an
impairment of the goodwill arising on acquisition of JKL Ltd., amounting to10% of its total
computed value.

initial recognition and at the subsequent measurement as per Ind AS in the following cases:
(i) On 1 April 20X1, A Ltd. acquires 100% interest in B Ltd. As per the terms of agreement
the purchase consideration is payable in the following 2 tranches:
a. an immediate issuance of 10 lakhs shares of A Ltd. having face value of INR 10 per share;
b. a further issuance of 2 lakhs shares after one year if the profit before interest and tax of
B Ltd. for the first year following acquisition exceeds INR 1 crore.
i. The fair value of the shares of A Ltd. on the date of acquisition is INR 20 per
share. Further, the management has estimated that on the date of
acquisition, the fair value of contingent consideration is ` 25 lakhs.
ii. During the year ended 31 March 20X2, the profit before interest and tax of B

part of the consideration transferred in exchange for the acquiree.
With respect to contingent consideration, obligations of an acquirer under contingent consideration
arrangements are classified as equity or a liability in accordance with Ind AS32 or other applicable Ind
AS, i.e., for the rare case of non-financial contingent consideration. Paragraph 40 provides that the
acquirer shall classify an obligation to pay contingent consideration that meets the definition of a
financial instrument as a financial liability or as equity on the basis of the definitions of an equity
instrument and a financial liability in paragraph 11 of Ind AS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation. The
acquirer shall classify as an asset a right to the return of previously transferred consideration if specified
conditions are met. Paragraph 58 of Ind AS 103 provides guidance on the subsequent accounting for
contingent consideration.
(i) In the given case the amount of purchase consideration to be recognized on
initialrecognitionshall be as follows:
`
Fair value of shares issued (10,00,000 x `20) 2,00,00,000
Fair value of contingent consideration 25,00,000
Total purchase consideration 2,25,00,000
Subsequent measurement of contingent consideration payable for business combination
In general, an equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of
an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Ind AS 32 describes an equity instrument as one
that meets both of the following conditions:

Striker 3.2 | Additional Question Bank
As per paragraph 58 of Ind AS 103, contingent consideration not classified as equity should be
measured at fair value at each reporting date and changes in fair value should be recognized in
profit or loss.
As at 31 March 20X2, (being the date of settlement of contingent consideration), the liability
would be measured at its fair value and the resulting loss of `15,00,000 (`40,00,000 ”
`25,00,000) should be recognized in the profit or loss for the period. ALtd. would recognize
issuance of 160,000 (`40,00,000/25) shares at a premium of `15 per share.
SM 9. As part of its business expansion strategy, KK Ltd. is in process of setting up a pharma intermediates
business which is at very initial stage. For this purpose, KK Ltd. has acquired on 1st April, 20X1,
100% shares of ABR Ltd. that manufactures pharma intermediates. The purchase consideration for the
same was by way of a share exchange valued at ` 35 crores. The fair value of ABR Ltd.' s net assets was `
15 crores, but does not include:
(i) A patent owned by ABR Ltd. for an established successful intermediate drug that has a
remaining life of 8 years. A consultant has estimated the value of this patent to be` 10 crores.
However, the outcome of clinical trials for the same are awaited. If the trials are successful, the
value of the drug would fetch the estimated ` 15 crores.
(ii) ABR Ltd. has developed and patented a new drug which has been approved for clinical
use. The cost of developing the drug was `12 crores. Based on earlyassessment of its
sales success, the valuer has estimated its market value at ` 20 crores.
(iii) ABR Ltd.'s manufacturing facilities have received a favourable inspection by a government
department. As a result of this, the Company has been granted an exclusive five-year
license to manufacture and distribute a new vaccine. Although the license has no direct cost to
the Company, its directors believe that obtaining the license is a valuable asset which
assures guaranteed sales and the value for the same is estimated at ` 10 crores.
KK Ltd. has requested you to suggest the accounting treatment of the above transaction under
applicable Ind AS. [SM 2021, TYK-11]
Ans.
As per para 13 of Ind AS 103 ‘Business Combination’, the acquirer's application of the recognition
principle and conditions may result in recognising some assets and liabilities that the acquiree had not
previously recognised as assets and liabilities in its financial statements. This may be the case when the
asset is developed by the entity internally and charged the related costs to expense.
Based on the above, the company can recognise following Intangible assets while determining
Goodwill / Bargain Purchase for the transaction:
(i) Patent owned by ABR Ltd.: The patent owned will be recognised at fair value by KK Ltd. even
though it was not recognised by ABR Ltd. in its financial statements. The patent will be
amortised over the remaining useful life of the asset i.e. 8 years. Since the company is awaiting
the outcome of the trials, the value of the patent cannot be estimated at `15 crore and the
extra `5 crore should only be disclosed as a Contingent Asset and not recognised.
(ii) Patent internally developed by ABR Ltd.: As per para 18 of Ind AS 103 ‘Business Combination’,
the acquirer shall measure the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at their
acquisition date fair values. Since the patent developed has been approved for clinical use, it is
an identifiable asset, hence the same will be measured at fair value ie`20 crore on the
acquisition date.
(iii) Grant of Licence to ABR Ltd. by the Government: As regards to the five-year license,
applying para 18 of Ind AS 103, grant asset will be recognised at fair value on the acquisition

Striker 3.2 – SM 2021 – Newly Added / Modified Questions Bank by CA SJ
date by KK Ltd. On acquisition date, the fair value of the license is Rs.10 crore. However, since
the question does not mention about the fair value of the identifiable liability with respect to
grant of license for the acquirer, it is assumed that no conditions with respect to compliance of
grant (if any) have been passed to the acquirer. Hence, the fair value of the liability with respect
to grant, for acquirer would be nil. Only, the grant asset (license) would be recognised at `10
crore in the books of acquirer KK Ltd.
Hence the revised working would be as follows:
`
Fair value of net assets of ABR Ltd. 15 crore
Add: Patent (10 + 20) 30 crore
Add: License 10 crore
Less: Grant for License (Nil)
55 crores
Purchase Consideration (35 crores)
Bargain purchase 20 crore

Other information:
Property, plant and equipment in the above Balance Sheet include leasehold motor vehicles having
carrying value of `1 crore and fair value of `1.2 crore. The date of inception of the lease was 1st
April, 20X0. On the inception of the lease, S Ltd. had correctly classified the lease as a finance
lease. However, if facts and circumstances as on 1st April, 20X7 are considered, the lease would be
classified as an operating lease.
In consideration of the additional stake purchased by H Ltd. on 1st January, 20X7, it has issued to the
selling shareholders of S Ltd. 1 equity share of H Ltd. for every 2 shares held in S Ltd. Fair value of equity
shares of H Ltd. as on 1st January, 20X7 is `10,000 per share.
On 1st January, 20X7, H Ltd. has paid `50 crore in cash to the selling shareholders of S Ltd. Additionally,
on 31st March, 20X9, H Ltd. will pay `30 crore to the selling shareholders of S Ltd. if return on equity of S
Ltd. for the year ended 31st March, 20X9 is more than 25% per annum. H Ltd. has estimated the fair
value of this obligation as on 1st January, 20X7 and 31st March, 20X7 as `22 crore and `23 crore
respectively. The change in fair value of the obligation is attributable to the change in facts and

circumstances after the acquisition date.
Quoted price of equity shares of S Ltd. as on various dates is as follows:
As on November, 20X6 `350 per share
As on 1st January, 20X7 `395 per share
As on 31st March, 20X7 `420 per share
On 31st May, 20X7, H Ltd. learned that certain customer relationships existing as on 1st January, 20X7,
which met the recognition criteria of an intangible asset as on that date, were not considered during the
accounting of business combination for the year ended 31st March, 20X7. The fair value of such
customer relationships as on 1st January, 20X7 was`3.5 crore (assume that there are no temporary
differences associated with customer relations; consequently, there is no impact of income taxes on
customer relations).
On 31st May, 20X7 itself, H Ltd. further learned that due to additional customer relationships
being developed during the period 1st January, 20X7 to 31st March, 20X7, the fair value of such
customer relationships has increased to `4 crore as on 31st March,20X7.
On 31st December, 20X7, H Ltd. has established that it has obtained all the information necessary for
the accounting of the business combination and that more information is not obtainable.
H Ltd. and S Ltd. are not related parties and follow Ind AS for financial reporting. Income tax rate
applicable is 30%.
You are required to provide your detailed responses to the following, along with reasoning and
computation notes:
(a) What should be the goodwill or bargain purchase gain to be recognised by H Ltd. in its
financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 20X7. For this purpose, measure non-
controlling interest using proportionate share of the fair value of the identifiable net assets of S
Ltd.
(b) Will the amount of non-controlling interest, goodwill, or bargain purchase gain so recognised in
(a) above change subsequent to 31st March, 20X7? If yes, provide relevant journal entries.
(c) What should be the accounting treatment of the contingent consideration as on31st
March, 20X7? [SM 2021, TYK-12]
Ans.
(i) As an only exception to the principle of classification or designation of assets as they exist at the
acquisition date is that for lease contract and insurance contracts classification which will be
based on the basis of the conditions existing at inception and not on acquisition date.
Therefore, H Ltd. would be required to retain the original lease classification of the lease
arrangements and thereby recognise the lease arrangements as finance lease.
(ii) The requirements in Ind AS 37 ‘Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets’, do
not apply in determining which contingent liabilities to recognise as of the acquisition date as
per Ind AS 103 ‘Business Combination’. Instead, the acquirer shall recognise as of the acquisition
date a contingent liability assumed in a business combination if it is a present obligation that
arises from past events and its fair value can be measured reliably. Therefore, contrary to Ind AS
37, the acquirer recognises a contingent liability assumed in a business combination at the
acquisition date even if it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic
benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Hence H Ltd. will recognize contingent
liability of `2.5 cr.
140 Download from www.fast.edu.in – Download Section By CA. Sarthak Niraj Jain
Striker 3.2 | Additional Question Bank
Since S Ltd. has indemnified for `1 cr., H Ltd. shall recognise an indemnification asset at the
same time for `1 cr.
As per the information given in the question, this indemnified asset is not taxable. Hence, its tax
base will be equal to its carrying amount. No deferred tax will arise on it.
(iii) As per Ind AS 103, non-current assets held for sale should be measured at fair value less cost to
sell in accordance with Ind AS 105 ‘Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued
Operations’. Therefore, its carrying value as per balance sheet has been considered in the
calculation of net assets.
(iv) Any equity interest in S Ltd. held by H Ltd. immediately before obtaining control over S Ltd. is
adjusted to acquisition-date fair value. Any resulting gain or loss is recognised in the profit or
loss of H Ltd.

(b) As per para 45 of Ind AS 103 ‘Business Combination’, if the initial accounting for a business
combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs,
the acquirer shall report in its financial statements provisional amounts for the items for
which the accounting is incomplete.
During the measurement period, the acquirer shall also recognise additional assets or liabilities
if new information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition
date and, if known, would have resulted in the recognition of those assets and liabilities as of
that date.
The measurement period ends as soon as the acquirer receives the information it was seeking
about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date or learns that more
information is not obtainable. However, the measurement period shall not exceed one year
from the acquisition date.
Further, as per para 46 of Ind AS 103, the measurement period is the period after the acquisition
date during which the acquirer may adjust the provisional amounts recognised for a business
142 Download from www.fast.edu.in – Download Section By CA. Sarthak Niraj Jain
Striker 3.2 | Additional Question Bank
combination. The measurement period provides the acquirer with a reasonable time to obtain
the information necessary to identify and measure the following as of the acquisition date in
accordance with the requirements of this Ind AS:
(a) the identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in
the acquiree;
(b) …..
(c) ……; and
(d) the resulting goodwill or gain on a bargain purchase.
Para 48 states that the acquirer recognises an increase (decrease) in the provisional amount
recognised for an identifiable asset (liability) by means of a decrease (increase) in goodwill.
Para 49 states that during the measurement period, the acquirer shall recognise adjustments to
the provisional amounts as if the accounting for the business combination had been
completed at the acquisition date.
Para 50 states that after the measurement period ends, the acquirer shall revise the accounting
for a business combination only to correct an error in accordance with Ind AS 8 ‘Accounting
Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’.
On 31st December, 20X7, H Ltd. has established that it has obtained all the information
necessary for the accounting of the business combination and the more information is not
obtainable. Therefore, the measurement period for acquisition of S Ltd. ends on 31st December,
20X7.
On 31st May, 20X7 (ie within the measurement period), H Ltd. learned that certain customer
relationships existing as on 1st January, 20X7 which met the recognition criteria of an
intangible asset as on that date were not considered during the accounting of business
combination for the year ended 31st March, 20X7. Therefore, H Ltd. shall account for the
acquisition date fair value of customer relations existing on1st January, 20X7 as an identifiable
intangible asset. The corresponding adjustment shall be made in the amount of goodwill.
Accordingly, the amount of goodwill will be changed due to identification of new asset from
retrospective date for changes in fair value of assets and liabilities earlier recognised on
provisional amount (subject to meeting the condition above for measurement period). NCI
changes would impact the consolidated retained earnings (parent’s share). Also NCI will be
increased or decreased based on the profit during the post-acquisition period.
Journal entry
Customer relationship Dr. 3.5 crore
To NCI 1.4 crore
To Goodwill 2.1 crore
However, the increase in the value of customer relations after the acquisition date shall not be
accounted by H Ltd., as the customer relations developed after 1st January, 20X7
represents internally generated intangible assets which are not eligible for recognition on the
balance sheet.
(c) Since the contingent considerations payable by H Ltd is not classified as equity and is within the
scope of Ind AS 109 ‘Financial Instruments’, the changes in the fair value shall be recognised in
profit or loss. Change in Fair value of contingent consideration (23-22) ` 1 crore will be
recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Notes:
1. Current investment are held for the purpose of trading. Hence, it is a financial asset classified as
FVTPL. Any gain in its fair value will be recognised through profit or loss. Hence, ` 20,000 (`

However, it will attract deferred tax liability on increased value (Refer W.N).

SM 2. Mumbai Challengers Ltd., a listed entity, is a sports organization owning several cricket and hockey
teams. The issues below pertain to the reporting period ending 31 March 20X2.
(a) Owing to the proposed schedules of Indian Hockey League as well as Cricket Premier
Tournament, Mumbai Challengers Ltd. needs a new stadium to host the sporting events. This
stadium will form a part of the Property, Plant and Equipment of the company. Mumbai
Challengers Ltd. began the construction of the stadium on 1 December, 20X1. The construction
of the stadium was completed in 20X2-20X3. Costs directly related to the construction
amounted to ₹ 140 crores in December 20X1. Thereafter, ₹ 350 crores have been incurred per
month until the end of the financial year. The company has not taken any specific borrowings
to finance the construction of the stadium, although it has incurred finance costs on its
regular overdraft during the period, which were avoidable had the stadium not been
constructed. Mumbai Challengers Ltd. has calculated that the weighted averagecost of the
borrowings for the period 1 December 20X1 to 31 March 20X2 amounted to 15%per annum on
an annualized basis.
The company seeks advice on the treatment of borrowing costs in its financial statements for
the year ending 31 March 20X2.
(b) Mumbai Challengers Ltd. acquires and sells players’ registrations on a regular basis. For a player
to play for its team, Mumbai Challengers Ltd. must purchase registrations for that player. These
player registrations are contractual obligations between the player and the company. The costs
of acquiring player registrations include transfer fees, league levy fees, and player agents’ fees
incurred by the club.

Striker 3.2 | Additional Question Bank
At the end of each season, which happens to also be the reporting period end for Mumbai
Challengers Ltd., the club reviews its contracts with the players and makes decisions as to
whether they wish to sell/transfer any players’ registrations. The company actively markets
these registrations by circulating with other clubs a list of players’ registrations and their
estimated selling price. Players’ registrations are also sold during the season, often with
performance conditions attached. In some cases, it becomes clear that a player will not play for
the club again because of, for example, a player sustaining a career threatening injury or being
permanently removed from the playing squad for any other reason. The playing
registrations of certain players were sold after the year end, for total proceeds, net of
associated costs, of ₹ 175 crores. These registrations had a net book value of ₹ 49 crores.
Mumbai Challengers Ltd. seeks your advice on the treatment of the acquisition, extension,
review and sale of players’ registrations in the circumstances outlined above.
(c) Mumbai Challengers Ltd. measures its stadiums in accordance with the revaluation model.
An airline company has approached the directors offering ₹ 700 crores for the property naming
rights of all the stadiums for five years. Three directors are on the management boards of both
Mumbai Challengers Ltd. and the airline. Additionally, statutory legislations regulate the
financing of both the cricket and hockey clubs. These regulations prevent contributions to the
capital from a related party which ‘increases equity without repayment in return’. Failure to
adhere to these legislations could lead to imposition of fines and withholding of prize
money.
Mumbai Challengers Ltd. wants to know how to take account of the naming rights in the
valuations of the stadium and the potential implications of the financial regulations imposed by
the legislations. [SM 2021, Case Study -6]
Ans.
(a) Borrowing Costs
As per Ind AS 23 Borrowing Costs, an entity shall capitalize borrowing costs that are directly
attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset (i.e. an asset that
necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale)as part of
the cost of that asset. The borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition,
construction or production of a qualifying asset are those borrowing costs that would have been
avoided if the expenditure on the qualifying asset had not been made. To the extent that an
entity borrows funds generally and uses them for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset,
the entity shall determine the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization by applying
a capitalization rate to the expenditures on that asset. The capitalization rate shall be the
weighted average of the borrowing costs applicable to all borrowings of the entity that are
outstanding during the period.
The capitalization rate of the borrowings of Mumbai Challengers Ltd. during the period of
construction is 15% per annum (as given in the question), and therefore, the total amount of
borrowing costs to be capitalized is the expenditures incurred on the asset multiplied by
thecapitalization rate, which is as under:

Weighted average carrying amount of the stadium during 20X1-X2 is:
₹ (140 + 490 + 840 + 1,190) crores/4 = ₹ 665 crores

Sale of registrations
Player registrations would be classified as assets held for sale under Ind AS 105 Non- Current
Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations when their carrying amount is expected to be
recovered principally through a sale transaction and a sale is considered to be highly probable.
To consider a sale to be ‘highly probable’, the assets (in this case, player registrations) should be
actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value. In the
given case, it would appear that the management is committed to a plan to sell the registration,
that the asset is available for immediate sale and that an active plan to locate a buyer is already
in place by circulating clubs. Ind AS 105 stipulates that it should be unlikely that the plan to sell
the registrations would be significantly changed or withdrawn. To fulfil this requirement, it
would be prudent if only those registrations are classified as held for sale where unconditional
offers have been received prior to the reporting date.
Once the conditions for classifying assets as held for sale in accordance with Ind AS 105 have
been fulfilled, the player registrations would be stated at lower of carrying amount and fair
value less costs to sell, with the carrying amount stated in accordance with Ind AS 38 prior to
application of Ind AS 105, subjected to impairment, if any.
Profits and losses on sale of players’ registrations would be computed by deducting the carrying
amount of the players’ registrations from the fair value of the consideration receivable,
net of transactions costs. In case a portion of the consideration is receivable on the occurrence
of a future performance condition (i.e. contingent consideration), this amount would be
recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss only when the conditions are met.
The players registrations disposed of, subsequent to the year end, for ₹ 175 crores, having a
corresponding book value of ₹ 49 crores would be disclosed as a non-adjusting event in
accordance with Ind AS 10 Events after the Reporting Period.

Impairment review
Ind AS 36 Impairment of Assets requires companies to annually test their assets for
impairment. An asset is said to be impaired if the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its
recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell
and its value in use (which is the present value of future cash flows expected to arise from the
use of the asset). In the given scenario, it is not easy to determine the value in use of any player
in isolation as that player cannot generate cash flows on his/her own unless via a sale
transaction or an insurance recovery. Whilst any individual player cannot really be separated
from the single cash-generating unit (CGU), being a cricket team or a hockey team in the instant
case, there may be certain instances where a player is taken out of the CGU when it becomes
clear that he/she will not play for the club again. If such circumstancesarise, the carrying amount
of the player should be assessed against the best estimate of the player’s fair value less any
costs to sell and an impairment charge should be recognized in the profit or loss, which reflects
any loss arising.
Ind AS 24 Related Party Disclosures lists the criteria for two entities to be treated as related
parties. Such criteria include being members of the same group or where a person or a close
member of that person’s family is related to a reporting entity if that person has control or joint
control over the reporting entity. Ind AS 24 deems that parties are not related simply because
they have a director or a key manager in common. In this case, there are three directors in
common and in the absence of any information to the contrary, it appears as though the entities
are not related. However, the regulator will need to establish whether the sponsorship deal is a
related party transaction for the purpose of the financial control provisions. There would need
to be demonstrated that the airline may be expected to influence, or be influenced by, the club
or a related party of the club. If the deal is deemed to be a related party transaction, the
regulator will evaluate whether the sponsorship is at fair value or not.
SM 3. (a) Neelanchal Gas Refinery Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Neelanchal), a listed company, is
involved in the production and trading of natural gas and oil. Neelanchal jointly owns an
underground storage facility with another entity, Seemanchal Refineries Ltd. (hereinafter
referred to as Seemanchal). Both the companies are engaged in extraction of gas from offshore
gas fields, which they own and operate independently of each other. Neelanchal owns 60% of
the underground facility and Seemanchal owns 40%. Both the companies have agreed to share
services and costs accordingly, with decisions relating to the storage facility requiring unanimous
agreement of the parties. The underground facility is pressurised so that the gas is pushed out
when extracted. When the gas pressure is reduced to a certain level, the remaining gas is

Striker 3.2 – SM 2021 – Newly Added / Modified Questions Bank by CA SJ
irrecoverable and remains in the underground storage facility untilit is decommissioned. As per
the laws in force, the storage facility should be decommissioned at the end of its useful life.
Neelanchal seeks your advice on the treatment of the agreement with Seemanchal as well as the
accounting for the irrecoverable gas.
(b) Neelanchal has entered into a ten-year contract with Uttaranchal Refineries Pvt. Ltd.
(hereinafter referred to as Uttaranchal) for purchase of natural gas. Neelanchal has paid an
advance to Uttaranchal equivalent to the total quantity of gas contracted for ten years based on
the forecasted price of gas. This advanced amount carries interest at the rate of 12.5% per
annum, which is settled by Uttaranchal way of supply of extra gas. The contract requires fixed
quantities of gas to be supplied each month. Additionally, there is a price adjustment
mechanism in the contract whereby the difference between the forecasted price of gas and the
prevailing market price is settled in cash on a quarterly basis. If Uttaranchal does not deliver the
gas as agreed, Neelanchal has the right to claim compensation computed at the current market
price of the gas.
Neelanchal wants to account for the contract with Uttaranchal in accordance with Ind AS
109Financial Instruments and seeks your inputs in this regard. [SM 2021, Case Study - 7]
Ans.
(a) Joint Arrangement
As per Ind AS 111 Joint Arrangements, a joint arrangement is an arrangement of which two or
more parties have joint control. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an
arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the
unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. The structure and form of the arrangement
determines the nature of the relationship. However, irrespective of the purpose, structure or
form of the arrangement, the classification of joint arrangements depends upon the parties’
rights and obligations arising from the arrangement. Accordingly, a joint arrangement could be
classified as a joint operation or as a joint venture. A joint arrangement which is NOT structured
through a separate vehicle is a joint operation. In such cases, the contractual arrangement
establishes the parties’ rights and obligations. A joint operator accounts for the assets,
liabilities, revenues and expenses relating to its involvement in a joint operation in accordance
with the relevant Ind AS. Based on the information provided, the arrangement with Seemanchal
Refineries Ltd. is a joint operation as no separate vehicle is formed and the companies have
agreed to share services and costs with decisions regarding the storage facility requiring
unanimous agreement of the parties. Neelanchal Gas Refinery Ltd. should recognize its share of
the asset as Property, Plant and Equipment.
As per Para 16 of Ind AS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment, the cost of an item of property, plant
and equipment comprises the initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item
and restoring the site on which it is located. Ind AS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and
Contingent Assets provides guidance on measuring decommissioning,restoration and similar
liabilities. Para 45 of Ind AS 37 provides that where the effect of the time value of money is
material, the amount of a provision shall be the present value of the expenditures expected to
be required to settle the obligation. Thus, costs incurred by an entity in respect of obligations
for dismantling, removing and restoring the site on which an item of property, plant and
equipment is situated are recognized and measured in accordance with Ind AS 16 and Ind AS 37,
with the journal entry being as under:
152 Download from www.fast.edu.in – Download Section By CA. Sarthak Niraj Jain
Striker 3.2 | Additional Question Bank
Neelanchal Gas Refinery Ltd. should recognize 60% of the cost of decommissioning of the
underground storage facility. However, in line Para 29 of Ind AS 37 where an entity is jointly and
severally liable for an obligation, the part of the obligation that is expected to be met by other
parties is treated as a contingent liability. Accordingly, Neelanchal Gas Refinery Ltd. should also
disclose 40% of the cost of decommissioning of the underground facility as a contingent
liability, should there arise future events that prevent Seemanchal Refineries Ltd. from fulfilling
its obligations under the arrangement.
As per Ind AS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment are tangible items that:
(a) are held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, for rental to others, or
for administrative purposes; and
(b) are expected to be used during more than one period.
Thus, Neelanchal Gas Refinery Ltd. should classify and account for its share of irrecoverable gas
as property, plant and equipment, as the irrecoverable gas is necessary for the storage facility to
perform its function. Therefore, the irrecoverable gas, being a part of the storage facility, should
be capitalized as a component of the storage facility asset, and should be depreciated to its
residual value over the life of the storage facility. However, if the gas is recoverable in full upon
decommissioning of the storage facility, then depreciation against the irrecoverable gas
component will be recorded only if the estimated residual value of the gas decreases below cost
during the life of the facility. Upon decommissioning of the storage facility, when the cushion
gas is extracted and sold, the sale of irrecoverable gas is accounted as a disposal of an item of
property, plant and equipment in accordance with Ind AS 16 and the resulting gain or loss is
recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss. The natural gas in excess of the irrecoverable
gas which is injected into the facility would be treated as inventory in accordance with Ind AS 2
Inventories.
Para 2.5 of Ind AS 109 further provides that a contract to buy or sell a non-financial item that can
be settled net in cash or another financial instrument, or by exchanging financial instruments, as
if the contract was a financial instrument, may be irrevocably designated as measured at fair
value through profit or loss even if it was entered into for the purpose of the receipt or delivery
of a non-financial item in accordance with the entity’s expected purchase, sale or usage
requirements. This designation is available only at inception of the contract and only if it
eliminates or significantly reduces a recognition inconsistency (sometimes referred to as an
‘accounting mismatch’) that would otherwise arise from not recognising that contract because it
is excluded from the scope of this Standard.
There are various ways in which a contract to buy or sell a non-financial item can be settled net
in cash or another financial instrument or by exchanging financial instruments. These include:
Get the Best of FR By CA. SARTHAK NIRAJ JAIN| Video Lectures from www.elearn.fast.edu.in 153
Striker 3.2 – SM 2021 – Newly Added / Modified Questions Bank by CA SJ
(a) when the terms of the contract permit either party to settle it net in cash or another
financial instrument or by exchanging financial instruments;
(b) when the ability to settle net in cash or another financial instrument, or by exchanging
financial instruments, is not explicit in the terms of the contract, but the entity has a
practice of settling similar contracts net in cash or another financial instrument or by
exchanging financial instruments (whether with the counterparty, by entering into
offsetting contracts or by selling the contract before its exercise or lapse);
(c) when, for similar contracts, the entity has a practice of taking delivery of the underlying
and selling it within a short period after delivery for the purpose of generating a profit
from short-term fluctuations in price or dealer’s margin; and
(d) when the non-financial item that is the subject of the contract is readily convertible to
cash.
A written option to buy or sell a non-financial item, such as a commodity, that can be settled net
in cash or another financial instrument, or by exchanging financial instruments, is within the
scope of Ind AS 109. Such a contract is accounted as a derivative. Such a contract cannot be
entered into for the purpose of the receipt or delivery of the non-financial item in accordance
with the entity’s expected purchase, sale or usage requirements. Judgment would be
required in this area as net settlements caused by unique events beyond management’s control
may not necessarily prevent the entity from applying the ‘own use’ exemption to all similar
contracts.
In the given case, the contract with Uttaranchal Refineries Pvt. Ltd. will result in physical delivery
of extra gas (which is a commodity and not cash, or a financial instrument) for theuse of
Neelanchal Gas Refinery Ltd. Accordingly, it appears that this contract would be an own use
contract falling outside the scope of Ind AS 109 and therefore, would be treated as an executory
contract. However, arguments could be placed that the contract is net settled due to the
penalty mechanism requiring Uttaranchal Refineries Pvt. Ltd. to compensate Neelanchal Gas
Refinery Ltd. at the current prevailing market price. Further, if natural gas is readily convertible
into cash at the location of delivery, the contract could be considered net settled. Additionally, if
there is volume flexibility, the contract could be regarded as a written option which falls within
the scope of Ind AS 109.
However, the contract will probably continue to be regarded as ‘own use’ as long as it has been
entered into and continues to be held for expected counterparties’ sale / usage requirements.
Additionally, the entity has not irrevocably designated the contract as measured at fair
value through profit or loss, thus emphasizing the ‘own use’ designation

All the investors have entered into a management agreement whereby they have granted the decision-

After 2 years of the agreement, the investors holding 90% of the voting powers have some disputes
with A Ltd. and they want to take back the decision-making rights from A Ltd. This can be done by
passing a resolution with majority of the investors voting in favour of the removal of rights from A Ltd.
However, as per the termination clause of the management agreement, B Ltd. will have to pay a huge
penalty to A Ltd. for terminating the agreement before its stated term.
Whether the rights held by investors holding 90% voting power are substantive?
Scenario B:
Assume the same facts as per Scenario A except, there is no penalty required to be paid by B Ltd. for
termination of agreement before its stated term. However, instead of all other investors, there are only
4 investors holding total 40% voting power that have disputes with A Ltd. and want to take back
decision-making rights from A Ltd.
Whether the rights held by investors holding 40% voting power are substantive? [SM 2021, Ill.-5]
Ans.
Scenario A:
If the investors holding 90% of the voting power exercise their right to terminate the management
agreement, then it will result in B Ltd. having to pay huge penalty which will affect the returns of B Ltd.
This is a barrier that prevents such investors from exercising their rights and hence such rights are not
substantive.
Scenario B:
To take back the decision-making rights from A Ltd., investors holding majority of the voting power
need to vote in favour of removal of rights from A Ltd. However, the investors having disputes with A
Ltd. do not have majority voting power and hence the rights held by them are not substantive.
Scenario B:
Assume the same facts as per Scenario A except, the option price is in line with the current market price
of ABC Ltd. and ABC Ltd. is making profits. However, the option can beexercised in next 1 month
only and the investor is not in a position to arrange for the require amount in 1 month’s time to exercise
the option. Whether the right held by the investor to exercise purchase option is substantive?
Scenario C:
Assume the same facts as per Scenario A except, ABC Ltd. is making profits. However, the current
market price of ABC Ltd. is not known since the ABC Ltd. is a relatively new company, business of
the company is unique and there are no other companies in the market doing similar business. Hence
the investor is not sure whether to exercise the purchase option. Whether the right held by the
investor to exercise purchase option is substantive? [SM 2021, Ill.-6]
Ans.

The right to exercise purchase option is not substantive since the option exercise price is too high as
compared to current market price of ABC Ltd.

Scenario B:
The right to exercise purchase option is not substantive since the time period for the investor to
arrange for the requisite amount for exercising the option is too narrow.
Scenario C:
The right to exercise purchase option is not substantive. This is because the investor is not able to
obtain information about the market value of ABC Ltd. which is necessary in order to compare the
option exercise price with market price so that it can decide whether the exercise of purchase option
would be beneficial or not.
However, in the present scenario, there is absence of other managers who are willing or able to provide
specialised services that the current asset manager is providing and purchase the stake that the
current asset manager is holding in the fund. Whether the removal rights available with other investors
are substantive? [SM 2021, Ill.-7]
Ans.
If the other investors exercise their removal rights, then it will impact the operations of the fund and
ultimately the returns of the fund since there is no substitute of the current asset manager available
who can manage the corpus of the fund. Hence the removal rights held by other investors are not
substantive.

Although operating within the parameters set out in the investment mandate and in accordance with
the regulatory requirements, the fund manager has decision-making rights that give it the current ability
to direct the relevant activities of the fund„the investors do not hold substantive rights that could
affect the fund manager’s decision-making authority. The fund manager receives a market-based fee for
its services that is commensurate with the services provided and has also made a pro rata investment in
the fund. The remuneration and its investment expose the fundmanager to variability of returns from
the activities of the fund without creating exposure that is of such significance that it indicates that the
fund manager is a principal.
In this case, consideration of the fund manager’s exposure to variability of returns from the fund
together with its decision-making authority within restricted parameters indicates that the fund
manager is an agent. Thus, the fund manager concludes that it does not control the fund.
[SM 2021, Ill.-17]
Although it must make decisions in the best interests of all investors, the fund manager has
extensive decision-making authority to direct the relevant activities of the fund. The fund manager is
paid fixed and performance-related fees that are commensurate with the services provided. In addition,
the remuneration aligns the interests of the fund manager with those of the other investors to
increase the value of the fund, without creating exposure to variability of returns from the activities of
the fund that is of such significance that the remuneration, when considered in isolation, indicates that
the fund manager is a principal.
The above fact pattern and analysis applies to various scenarios described below. Each scenario is
considered in isolation. Determine whether the fund manager control the fund?
Scenario A
The fund manager also has a 2% investment in the fund that aligns its interests with those of the other
investors. The fund manager does not have any obligation to fund losses beyond its 2% investment. The
investors can remove the fund manager by a simple majority vote, but only for breach of contract.
Scenario B
The fund manager has a more substantial pro rata investment in the fund but does not have any
obligation to fund losses beyond that investment. The investors can remove the fund manager by a
simple majority vote, but only for breach of contract.
Scenario C
The fund manager has a 20% pro rata investment in the fund but does not have any obligation to fund
losses beyond its 20% investment. The fund has a board of directors, all of whose members are
independent of the fund manager and are appointed by the other investors. The boardappoints
the fund manager annually. If the board decided not to renew the fund manager’s contract, the
services performed by the fund manager could be performed by other managers in the industry.

Ans.
Scenario A
The fund manager’s 2% investment increases its exposure to variability of returns from
theactivities of the fund without creating exposure that is of such significance that it indicates that the
fund manager is a principal. The other investors’ rights to remove the fund manager are
considered to be protective rights because they are exercisable only for breach of contract. In this
example, although the fund manager has extensive decision-making authority and is exposed to
variability of returns from its interest and remuneration, the fund manager’s exposure indicates that the
fund manager is an agent. Thus, the fund manager concludes that it does not control the fund.
Scenario B
In this scenario, the other investors’ rights to remove the fund manager are considered to be protective
rights because they are exercisable only for breach of contract. Although the fund manager is
paid fixed and performance-related fees that are commensurate with the services provided, the
combination of the fund manager’s investment together with its remuneration could create exposure to
variability of returns from the activities of the fund that is of such significance that it indicates that the
fund manager is a principal. The greater the magnitude of, and variability associated with, the fund
manager’s economic interests (considering its remuneration and other interests in aggregate), the more
emphasis the fund manager would place on those economic interests in the analysis, and the more likely
the fund manager is a principal.
For example, having considered its remuneration and the other factors, the fund manager might
consider a 20% investment to be sufficient to conclude that it controls the fund. However, in different
circumstances (i.e. if the remuneration or other factors are different), control may arise when the level
of investment is different.
Scenario C
Although the fund manager is paid fixed and performance-related fees that are commensurate with the
services provided, the combination of the fund manager’s 20% investment together with its
remuneration creates exposure to variability of returns from the activities of the fund that is of such
significance that it indicates that the fund manager is a principal. However, the investors have
substantive rights to remove the fund manager„the board of directors provides a mechanism to ensure
that the investors can remove the fund manager if they decide to do so.
In this scenario, the fund manager places greater emphasis on the substantive removal rights in the
analysis. Thus, although the fund manager has extensive decision-making authority and is exposed to
variability of returns of the fund from its remuneration and investment, the substantiverights held by
the other investors indicate that the fund manager is an agent. Thus, the fund manager concludes that it
does not control the fund.

market-based fixed fee (i.e. 1% of assets under management) and performance-related fees (i.e.
10% of profits) if the investee’s profits exceed a specified level. The fees are commensurate with the
services provided. The asset manager holds 35% of the equity in the investee. The remaining 65% of
the equity, and all the debt instruments, are held by a large number of widely dispersed unrelated third-
party investors. The asset manager can be removed, without cause, by a simple majority decision of the
other investors.
Does the asset manager control the investee? [SM 2021, Ill.-18]
Ans.
The asset manager is paid fixed and performance-related fees that are commensurate with the services
provided. The remuneration aligns the interests of the fund manager with those of the other investors
to increase the value of the fund. The asset manager has exposure to variability of returns from the
activities of the fund because it holds 35% of the equity and from its remuneration.
Although operating within the parameters set out in the investee’s prospectus, the asset manager has
the current ability to make investment decisions that significantly affect the investee’s returns - the
removal rights held by the other investors receive little weighting in the analysis because those rights
are held by a large number of widely dispersed investors. In this example, the asset manager
places greater emphasis on its exposure to variability of returns of the fund from its equity interest,
which is subordinate to the debt instruments. Holding 35% of the equity creates subordinated exposure
to losses and rights to returns of the investee, which are of such significance that it indicates
that the asset manager is a principal. Thus, the asset manager
concludes that it controls the investee.
The sponsor is entitled to any residual return of the fund and also provides credit enhancement and
liquidity facilities to the fund. The credit enhancement provided by the sponsor absorbs losses of up to
5% of all of the fund’s assets, after losses are absorbed by the transferors. The liquidity facilities are not
advanced against defaulted assets. The investors do not hold substantive rights that could affect the
decision-making authority of the sponsor. Whether the sponsor has control over the fund?
[SM 2021, Ill.-19]
Ans.
Even though the sponsor is paid a market-based fee for its services that is commensurate with the
services provided, the sponsor has exposure to variability of returns from the activities of the fund
because of its rights to any residual returns of the fund and the provision of credit enhancement and
liquidity facilities (i.e. the fund is exposed to liquidity risk by using short-term debt instruments to fund
medium-term assets). Even though each of the transferors has decision-making rights that affect the
value of the assets of the fund, the sponsor has extensive decision-making authority that gives it the
current ability to direct the activities that most significantly affect the fund’s returns (i.e. the sponsor

established the terms of the fund, has the right to make decisions about the assets (approving the
assets purchased and the transferors of those assets) and the funding of the fund (for which new
investment must be found on a regular basis)). The right to residual returns of the fund and the
provision of credit enhancement and liquidity facilities expose the sponsor to variability of returns
from the activities of the fund that is different from that of the other investors. Accordingly, that
exposure indicates that the sponsor is a principal and thus the sponsor concludes that it controls the
fund. The sponsor’s obligation to act in the best interest of all investors does not
prevent the sponsor from being a principal.
Investment Fund
The typical characteristics of an investment entity are also present in the structure of the
investment fund i.e. more than one investment, more than one investor, investors are unrelated and
investment fund issues units in the fund to the investors.
With respect to the business objective of the investment fund, the objective is to earn capital
appreciation from its investments. The strategic advisory services and financial support provided to
investees are extended with the intention of earning higher capital appreciation from the investees.
However, judgement should to be applied that these do not represent substantial business activity or a
separate substantial source of income for the investment fund. If the investment fund concludes
that these services and financial support to investees are not substantial business activity and

Ans.
PQR Ltd. And DEF Ltd. Are part of same group. Further, DEF Ltd. Have exclusive right to acquire the
patent and distributions rights from the investees of PQR Ltd. And that too at less then the market
price. Hence, the related party of PQR Ltd. Is in position to obtain benefits other than capital
appreciation and investment income from the investees that are not available to otherparties

Ans.
Even though HTF Ltd.’s business purpose is investing for capital appreciation and it provides investment
management services to its investors, HTF Ltd. Is not an investment entity because of the following
arrangements and circumstances:
(a) T Ltd., the parent of HTF Ltd. Holds options to acquire investments in investees held by HTF Ltd.
If the assets developed by the investees would benefit the operations of T Ltd. This provides a
benefit in addition to capital appreciation or investment income; and
(b) the investment plans of HTF Ltd. Do not include exit strategies for its investments, which are
equity investments. The options held by T Ltd. Are not controlled by HTF Ltd. And do
notconstitute an exit strategy.

ABC Ltd. and DEF Ltd. have entered into a contractual arrangement to manufacture a product and sell
that in retail market. As per the terms of the arrangement, decisions about the relevant activities
require consent of both the parties. The parties share the returns of the arrangement equally amongst
them. Whether the arrangement can be treated as joint arrangement? [SM 2021, Ill.-1]

simple majority.
Determine whether Electronics Ltd. is controlled by a single investor or is jointly controlled by both the
investors. [SM 2021, Ill.-6]
Ans.
The decisions about relevant activities are required to be taken by majority of board of directors. Hence,
out of the 4 directors, at least 3 directors need to agree to pass any decision. Accordingly, the directors
appointed by any one investor cannot take the decisions independently without the consent of at least
one director appointed by other investor. Hence, Electronics Ltd. is jointly controlled by both the
investors. R Ltd. holding majority of the voting rights is not relevant in this case since the voting rights do

The decisions about relevant activities are required to be taken by majority of board of directors. Hence,
out of the 4 directors, at least 3 directors need to agree to pass any decision. Accordingly, the directors
appointed by any one investor cannot take the decisions independently without the consent of at least

vote in case of a deadlock in the board. Hence, M Ltd. has the ability to takedecisions related to relevant
activities through 2 votes by directors and 1 casting vote by chairman of the board. Therefore, M Ltd.
individually has power over MN Software Ltd. and there is no jointcontrol.
As per the articles of association of ABC Ltd., AB Ltd. and BC Ltd. have right to appoint 3 directors and 2
directors respectively on the board of ABC Ltd. The directors appointed by each investor will act in

directors through simple majority.
Determine whether ABC Ltd. is jointly controlled by both the investors. [SM 2021, Ill.-8]
Ans.
The decisions about relevant activities are required to be taken by majority of board of directors. Hence,
out of the 5 directors, at least 3 directors need to agree to pass any decision. Accordingly, the directors
appointed by AB Ltd. can take the decisions independently without the consent of any of the directors
appointed by BC Ltd. Hence, ABC Ltd. is not jointly controlled by both the investors. Equal voting
rights held by both the investors is not relevant in this case since the voting rights do not given power

As per the articles of association of RS Ltd, the construction of the highway will be done by entity R and
all the decisions related to construction will be taken by entity R independently. After the construction
is over, entity S will operate the highway for the period of 30 years and all the decisions related
to operating of highway will be taken by entity S independently. However, decisions related to
funding and capital structure of RS Ltd. will be taken by both the parties with unanimous consent.
Determine whether RS Ltd. is a joint arrangement between entity R and entity S? [SM 2021, Ill.-10]
Ans.
In this case, the investors should evaluate which of the decisions about relevant activities can most
significantly affect the returns of RS Ltd. If the decisions related to construction of highway or operating
the highway can affect the returns of the RS Ltd. most significantly then the investor directing those

Two entities have established a partnership firm with each party having 50% share in the net profits of
the firm. Assuming that the arrangement meets the definition of a joint arrangement, determine
whether the joint arrangement is a joint operation or a joint venture? [SM 2021, Ill.-17]
Ans.
In this case, the parties to the arrangement should evaluate whether the legal form creates
separation between the partners and the partnership firm. If the parties conclude that they have rights
in the assets and obligations for the liabilities relating to the partnership firm then this would be a joint
operation. If the assessment of legal form of the partnership firm indicates that the firm is a joint
operation then there is no need to evaluate any other factors and it is concluded that thepartnership
firm is a joint operation.
The legal form of ABCD Ltd. causes it to be considered in its own right (ie the assets and liabilities held in
ACD Ltd. are the assets and liabilities of ABC Ltd. and not the assets and liabilities of the parties).
Further, the contractual arrangement and other relevant facts and circumstances also do not indicate
otherwise.
Determine whether various arrangements under the framework agreement are joint operation or joint
venture? [SM 2021, Ill.-20]
Ans.
The manufacturing of Product X is not done through a separate vehicle and the assets used to
manufacture the product are jointly owned by both the parties. Hence, the manufacturing activity is a
joint operation.
The distribution of Product X is done through a separate vehicle i.e. ABCD Ltd. Further, AB Ltd. and CD

The parties agreed to purchase all the output produced by Entity A in a ratio of 50:50. Entity A
cannot sell any of the output to third parties, unless this is approved by the two parties to the
arrangement. Because the purpose of the arrangement is to provide the parties with output they
require, such sales to third parties are expected to be uncommon and not material.
The price of the output sold to the parties is set by both parties at a level that is designed to cover

Striker 3.2 – SM 2021 – Newly Added / Modified Questions Bank by CA SJ
the costs of production and administrative expenses incurred by Entity A. On the basis of this
operating model, the arrangement is intended to operate at a break-even level.
Based on the above fact pattern, determine whether the arrangement is a joint operation or a joint
venture? [SM 2021, Ill.-19 Modified]
Ans.
The legal form of Entity A and the terms of the contractual arrangement indicate that the arrangement
is a joint venture. However, the other relevant facts and circumstances mentioned above indicates that:
the obligation of the parties to purchase all the output produced by Entity A reflects the exclusive
dependence of Entity A upon the parties for the generation of cash flows and, thus, the parties have
an obligation to fund the settlement of the liabilities of Entity A.
the fact that the parties have rights to all the output produced by Entity A means that the parties are
consuming, and therefore have rights to, all the economic benefits of the assets of Entity A.
These facts and circumstances indicate that the arrangement is a joint operation. The conclusion about
the classification of the joint arrangement in these circumstances would not change if, instead of the
parties using their share of the output themselves in a subsequent manufacturing process, the parties
sold their share of the output to third parties.
If the parties changed the terms of the contractual arrangement so that the arrangement was able to
sell output to third parties, this would result in Entity A assuming demand, inventory and credit risks. In
that scenario, such a change in the facts and circumstances would require reassessment of the
classification of the joint arrangement. Such facts and circumstances would indicate that the
arrangement is a joint venture.

SM 1. Significant influence
E Ltd. holds 25% of the voting power of an investee. The balance 75% of the voting power is held by
three other investors each holding 25%.
The decisions about the financing and operating policies of the investee are taken by investors holding
majority of the voting power. Since, the other three investors together hold majority voting power, they
generally take the decisions without taking the consent of E Ltd. Even if E Ltd. proposes any
changes to the financing and operating policies of the investee, the other three investors do not vote in
favour of those changes. So, in effect the suggestions of E Ltd. are not considered while taking decisions
related to financing and operating policies.
Determine whether E Ltd. has significant influence over the investee? [SM 2021, Ill.-1]
Ans.
Since E Ltd. is holding more than 20% of the voting power of the investee, it indicates that E Ltd. might
have significant over the investee. However, the other investors in the investee prevent E Ltd. from
participating in the financing and operating policy decisions of the investee. Hence, in this case, E Ltd. is
not in a position to have significant influence over the investee.
Determine whether M Ltd. has significant influence over the investee? [SM 2021, Ill.-3]
Ans.
In this case, though M Ltd. is holding less than 20% of the voting power of the investee, M Ltd.’s consent
is required to take decisions about taking borrowings which is one of the relevant activities. Further,
since the decisions about taking borrowing are not the decisions that most significantly affect the
returns of the investee, it cannot be said that all the investors have joint control over the investee.
Hence, it can be said that M Ltd. has significant influence over the investee.

Striker 3.2 | Additional Question Bank
Out of the inventory of ` 10,00,000, M Ltd. has sold inventory worth ` 6,00,000 to outside
customers. Hence, the profit of ` 60,000 (6,00,000 *10% profit margin) on such inventory is
realised. However, the inventory worth ` 4,00,000 is still held by M Ltd. which consists profit of `40,000
(4,00,000*10%). Hence, M Ltd.’s share in such profit i.e. ` 16,000 (40,000*40%) is considered as
unrealised.
Accordingly, after recording of share in total profit of N Ltd., M Ltd. should pass following
adjustment entry to reverse the unrealised profit margin:
Share in profit of N Ltd. Dr. 16,000
To Inventory 16,000
In subsequent period, when this inventory of ` 4,00,000 is sold by N Ltd. to an outside customer then the
above profit margin of ` 16,000 will be treated as realised and hence the above entry will be reversed in
that period.
[Note: in the separate financial statements of M Ltd., inventory is carried at ` 4,00,000 whereas in its
consolidated financial statements, inventory is carried at ` 3,84,000 (due to elimination entry above in
respect of unrealized profit). In the subsequent period, when the inventory is sold, Inventory
Account is credited by ` 4,00,000 whereas for the purpose of consolidated financial statements, it
should have been credited by only ` 3,84,000. The difference is adjusted by debiting back ` 16,000
to the Inventory Account and a corresponding recognition of share in profit of associate.]
Scenario B
Out of the inventory of ` 10,00,000, N Ltd. has sold inventory worth ` 6,00,000 to outside
customers. Hence, the profit of ` 60,000 (6,00,000 x 10% profit margin) on such inventory is realised.
However, the inventory worth ` 4,00,000 is still held by N Ltd. which consists profit of` 40,000
(4,00,000*10%). Out of this profit of ` 40,000, profit to the extent of other investor’sinterest in the
investee is treated as realised profit i.e. ` 24,000 (40,000*60%) is treated as realised profit. Balance
profit of ` 16,000 (40,000*40%) is considered as unrealised. Hence, M Ltd. should pass following
adjustment entry to reverse the unrealised profit:
Sales Dr. 160,000
To Cost of material consumed 144,000
To Investment in N Ltd. 16,000
In subsequent period, when this inventory of ` 4,00,000 is sold by N Ltd. to an outside customer then the
above profit margin of ` 16,000 will be treated as realised and hence the above entry will be reversed in
that period.
SM 11. Impairment loss on downstream and upstream transaction between an entity and its joint venture
Scenario A
X Ltd. has invested in a joint venture Y Ltd. by holding 50% of its equity share capital. During the year, X
Ltd. sold an asset to Y Ltd. at its market value of ` 8,00,000. The asset’s carrying value in X Ltd.’s books
was ` 10,00,000. Determine how should X Ltd. account for the sale transaction in its books.
Scenario B

Ans.
Scenario A
X Ltd. should record full loss of ` 2,00,000 (10,00,000 ” 8,00,000) in its books as that would represent the
impairment loss because the market value has actually declined. This loss would have been recorded
even if X Ltd. would have first impaired the asset and then sold to Y Ltd. Atzero profit / loss. Following
entry should be passed in the books of X Ltd.
Scenario B
X Ltd. should record loss to the extent of its share in Y Ltd. Hence, X Ltd.’s share in loss i.e.` 1,00,000
[(10,00,000 ” 8,00,000) x 50%] should be recorded by X Ltd. in its books. The loss should be recorded
since the market value of the asset has actually declined and this would represent impairment. This
loss would have been recorded even if Y Ltd. would have first recorded an impairment loss of `
2,00,000 and then sold to X Ltd. at zero profit / loss. Following entry should be passed in the books of X
Ltd.

* Recognition of changes in fair value as per Ind AS 109 has resulted in the carrying amount of
Preference shares being negative `50,000. Consequently, the entity shall reverse a portion of the
associate’s losses previously allocated to Preference shares.
Out of the total loss of `2,00,000 for the year, loss of only `50,000 is recognized. Hence, there is
recognized loss to the extent of `1,50,000 at the end of year 2.

The entity’s share in profit of associate for the year is `10,00,000. The entity shall allocate such profit to
each of the instruments in order of their seniority in liquidation. The entity should limit the amount of
profit to be allocated to preference shares and long-term loan to the extent of losses previously
allocated to them. Hence, the entity has allocated `5,00,000 to preference shares and`3,00,000 to long-
term debt.
There is no unrecognised loss at the end of year 4.

The interest accrual on long-term loan would be done in each year at 10% p.a. This will be done without
taking into account any adjustment done in the carrying value of long-term loan as per Ind AS 28. Hence,
the entity will accrue interest of `30,000 (3,00,000 x 10%) in each year.

proposed restructuring will also be the same.
The cost of the investment in Company A in the books of the Owners is ` 10 lakh. Total equity of
Company A (i.e. equity share capital and other equity attributable to the owners) as per its
separate financial statements on the date of proposed restructuring is ` 15 lakh.
After the proposed restructuring, New Co. wants to record its investment in Company A at cost.
Determine how it should measure the cost of investment in Company A? [SM 2021, Ill.-1]
Ans.
In current case, New Co. should measure the cost of investment in Company A at the carrying amount of
its share of the equity items shown in the separate financial statements of Company A at the date of the
restructuring because:
a) New Co. obtains control of Company A by issuing equity instruments to the Owners in
exchange for their existing equity instruments of Company A;
b) the assets and liabilities of the group immediately before and the proposed restructuring will be
same; and
c) the Owners will have the same absolute and relative interests in the net assets of the group
immediately before and after the proposed restructuring.
Hence, New Co. will measure the cost of investment in Company A at ` 15 lakh.

UNIT 8 : CONSOLIDATION: TEST YOUR KNOWLEDGE
SM 1. X Limited was holding 100% of the equity share capital of Y Limited and Y Limited was treated as a
subsidiary by X Limited. Now, Y Limited issues convertible preference shares to Z Limited. As per the
issue document of convertible preference shares, Z Limited also gets the rights to participate in the
relevant activities of Y Limited whereby Z Limited’s consent is also necessary to pass any decision by the
equity shareholder of Y Limited (i.e. X Limited). Determine how should X Limited account for its
investment in Y Limited in its consolidated financial statements after the issue of convertible
preference shares by Y Limited to Z Limited? [SM 2021, TYK-1]
Ans.
As per the issue document of convertible preference shares, unanimous consent of both X Limited and Z
Limited are required to pass any decision about the relevant activities of Y Limited. Hence, Y Limited is
jointly controlled by X Limited and Z Limited and thereby, Y Limited becomes a joint arrangement
between X Limited and Z Limited.
Y Limited is structured through a separate vehicle. The legal form of Y Limited, terms of the contractual
arrangement or other facts and circumstances do not give X Limited and Z Limited rights to the
assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to Y Limited. Hence, Y Limited is a joint venture
between X Limited and Z Limited.
When the convertible preference shares are issued to Z Limited, X Limited losses control over Y Limited.
Hence X Limited should derecognise the assets and liabilities of Y Limited from its consolidated financial
statements. 100% equity shares in Y Limited is still held by X Limited. Hence such investment would be
accounted at fair value on the date of loss of control by X Limited. The difference between the fair value
of 100% equity shares retained in Y Limited and the carrying value of assets and liabilities of Y
Limited derecognised is recognised in profit or loss of X Limited. After the loss of control, the
investment in Y Limited is accounted as per equity method of accounting by X Limited whereby the
investment value in Y Limited will be adjusted for the change in the X Limited’s share of the net assets Y
Limited post the date of loss of control. Also, the difference between the fair value of
investment in Y Limited and fair value of net identifiable assets of Y Limited shall be goodwill or capital
reserve.

accounted in the consolidated financial statements of M Limited? [SM 2021, TYK-2]
Ans.
Since N Limited is a subsidiary of M Limited, the consolidated financial statements of M Limited will
include 100% amounts of the consolidated financial statements of N Limited (including investment
in O Limited accounted for using equity method). Accordingly, the investment in O Limited will be
accounted as follows in the consolidated financial statements of M Limited:

SM 3. AB Limited holds 30% interest in an associate which it has acquired for a cost of ` 300 lakhs.On the date
of acquisition of that stake, the fair value of net assets of the associate was ` 900 lakh. The value of
goodwill on acquisition was ` 30 lakhs. After the acquisition, AB Limited accounted for the investment in
the associate as per equity method of accounting and now the carrying value of such investment in the
consolidated financial statements of AB Limited is ` 360 lakhs. The associate has now issued equity
shares to some investors other than AB Limited for a consideration of ` 800 lakhs. This has effectively
reduced the holding of AB Limited to 20%. Determine how AB Limited should account for such
reduction in interest in the associate? [SM 2021, TYK-3]
Ans.
Because of the issue of shares by associate to other investors, AB Limited has effectively sold 10% (30 ”
20) of its interest in the associate. The gain / loss on reduction in interest in associate in calculated as
follows:
`’ lakhs
AB Limited’s share in the consideration received by the associate for issue of 160
shares (800 x 20%) (1)
Less: Carrying value of interest sold (360 x 1/3)(2) (120)
Gain on reduction in interest in associate(3) 40
Notes:
(1) The share in the consideration received by associate on issue of shares (i.e. ` 160 lakhs) would be
recorded as part of investment in associate.
(2) The carrying amount of interest sold (i.e. ` 120 lakhs) will be derecognised, including
proportionate goodwill of ` 10 lakhs (30 * 1/3).
(3) Gain of ` 40 lakhs will be recorded in the profit or loss.

Does the loan meet the ‘SPPI’ or contractual cash flows characteristic test? (SM 2021, Illu.16)
Ans.
Contractual cash flows of both a fixed rate instrument and a floating rate instrument are payments of
principal and interest as long as the interest reflects consideration for the time value of money and
credit risk.
Therefore, a loan that contains a combination of a fixed and variable interest rate meets the contractual
cash flow characteristics test.

The differential on day 1 shall be treated as follows:
- Scenario 1 – If fair valuation is determined using level 1 inputs or other observable inputs, difference
on day 1 recognised in profit or loss
- Scenario 2 – If fair valuation is determined using other inputs, difference on day 1 shall be
recognised in profit or loss unless it meets definition of an asset or liability.
However, in case of security deposits level 1 fair value is not available. Therefore, in the above case, the
fair valuation is made based on unobservable inputs and hence applying scenario 2, difference can be
recognised as an asset if it meets the definition. Now, since the lessee gets to use the containers in
return for making an interest free deposit plus monthly charges, the lost interest representing day 1
difference between value of deposit and its fair value is like ‘’prepaid lease rent’ and can be recognised
as such. Prepaid rent (ROU Asset) shall be charged off to profit or loss in a straight lined manner as ‘lease

IRR would be the rate using which the present value of cash flow should come out to be` 9,500 i.e. (`

10,000 8,945
*Difference is due to approximation
Taking 10% as discount rate, present value (PV) comes out to be ` 10,000.
If rate is increased by 3% over a base rate of 10%, PV decreases by ` 1,055 (i.e. ` 10,000 less ` 8945).
To decrease PV by ` 1,055, rate should be increased = 3%
To decrease PV by Re.1, rate should be increased = 3%
1,055
To decrease PV by ` 500, rate should be increased = 3 % X 500
1,055

This would mean that the discount rate to get present value of cashflows equivalent to` 9,500 should be

What will be the accounting treatment of processing fees belonging to undisbursed term loan amount?
(SM 2021, Illu.34)
Ans.
Processing fee is an integral part of the effective interest rate of a financial instrument and shall be
included while calculating the effective interest rate.
(a) Accounting treatment in case future drawdown is probable
It may be noted that to the extent there is evidence that it is probable that the undisbursed term
loan will be drawn down in the future, the processing fee is accounted for as a transaction cost
under Ind AS 109, i.e., the fee is deferred and deducted from the carrying value of the financial
liabilities when the draw down occurs and considered in the effective interest rate calculations.

sanctioned to pay off the old loan taken from Bank A. The company paid prepayment premium to Bank A
to clear the old term loan and paid processing fees to Bank B for the new term loan.
Whether the prepayment premium and the processing fees both will be treated as transaction cost (as
per Ind AS 109, Financial Instruments) of obtaining the new loan, in the financial statements of PQR Ltd?
(SM 2021, Illu.35)
Ans.
(a) Accounting treatment of prepayment premium
Ind AS 109, provides that if an exchange of debt instruments or modification of terms is
accounted for as an extinguishment, any costs or fees incurred are recognised as part of the gain
or loss on the extinguishment in the statement of profit and loss.
Since the original loan was prepaid, the prepayment would result in extinguishment of the
original loan. The difference between the CV of the financial liability extinguished and the
consideration paid shall be recognised in profit or loss as per Ind AS 109.
Accordingly, the prepayment premium shall be recognised as part of the gain or loss on
extinguishment of the old loan.
It is assumed that the loan processing fees solely relates to the origination of the new loan (i.e.
does not represent loan modification/renegotiation fees). Hence, the processing fees paid to
avail fresh loan from Bank B will be considered as transaction cost in the nature of origination
fees of the new loan and will be included while calculating effective interest rate as per Ind AS
109.

SM 13. Accounting treatment of share held as stock in trade
A share broking company is dealing in sale/purchase of shares for its own account and therefore is having
inventory of shares purchased by it for trading.
How will these instruments be accounted for in the financial statements? (SM 2021, Illu.36)
Ans.
Ind AS 2, Inventories, states that this Standard applies to all inventories, except financial instruments (Ind
AS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation and Ind AS 109, Financial Instruments).
Accordingly, the principles of recognising and measuring financial instruments are governed by Ind AS
109, its presentation is governed by Ind AS 32 and disclosures are in accordance with Ind AS 107,
Financial Instruments: Disclosures, even if these instruments are held as stock-in trade by a company.
Further Ind AS 101, First-time Adoption of Indian Accounting Standards does not provide any transitional
relief from the application of the above standards.
Accordingly, in the given case, the relevant requirements of Ind AS 109, Ind AS 32 and Ind AS 107 shall be
applied retrospectively.

DERIVATIVES AND EMBEDDED DERIVATIVES
SM 1. The definition of a derivative requires that the instrument ‚is settled at a future date‛. Is this criterion
met even if an option is expected not to be exercised, for example, because it is out of the money?
(SM 2021, Illu.5)
Ans.
Yes. An option is settled upon exercise or at its maturity. Expiry at maturity is a form of settlement even
though there is no additional exchange of consideration.

Ans.
Contract 1:
The following factors indicate that this contract does not meet the 'own use’ exemption:
The contract permits net settlement, and
There is a past practice of a significant proportion (30 per cent in this illustration) of similar contracts
being settled on a net basis either in cash or by sale of the oil seeds prior to delivery/shortly after
taking delivery.
Therefore, this contract would fall within the scope of lnd AS 109 and should be recognised as a
derivative instrument as on 1 October 20X1. The contract would be in the nature of a forward contract to
buy 100 MT of oil seeds as on 31 March 20X2 at USD 400 per MT. Company Z would have to recognise the
fair value changes (based on change in forward purchase rate) on this contract in the statement of profit
and loss at each reporting date.
Contract 2
Contract 2 also permits net settlement in cash. Further, there have been some instances of similar
domestic purchase contracts being settled net in cash in the past. However, these have been infrequent
in nature and insignificant in proportion to the total value of similar contracts (i.e.1 percent in this
illustration).
Company Z is in the practice of taking delivery of the oil seeds purchased under similar contracts and
using them for further processing in its plants.
This indicates that the domestic purchase contract meets the criteria for the 'own-use’ exemption and
should be considered as an executory contract.
Therefore, this contract would not fall within the scope of Ind AS 109.
Contract 3
This contract is in the nature of a derivative contract transacted on a commodity exchange and is
required to be net settled in cash on maturity. Therefore, this derivative contract would be covered by
lnd AS 109 and required to be classified and measured at FVTPL.

Ans.
Based on the guidance above, the USD contract for purchase of machinery entered into by company A
includes an embedded foreign currency derivative due to the following reasons:
The host contract is a purchase contract (non-financial in nature) that is not classified as, or
measured at FVTPL.
The embedded foreign currency feature (requirement to settle the contract by payment of USD at a
future date) meets the definition of a stand-alone derivative ” it is akin to a USD-` forward contract
maturing on 31 December 20X1.
USD is not the functional currency of either of the substantial parties to the contract (i.e., neither
company A nor company B).
Machinery is not routinely denominated in USD in commercial transactions around the world. In this
context, an item or a commodity may be considered ‘routinely denominated’ in a particular currency
only if such currency was used in a large majority of similar commercial transactions around the
world. For example, transactions in crude oil are generally considered routinely denominated in USD.
A transaction for acquiring machinery in this illustration would generally not qualify for this
exemption.
USD is not a commonly used currency for domestic commercial transactions in the economic
environment in which either company A or B operate. This exemption generally applies when the
business practice in a particular economic environment is to use a more stable or liquid foreign
currency (such as the USD), rather than the local currency, for a majority of internalor cross-border
transactions, or both. In the illustration above, companies A and B are companies operating in India
and the purchase contract is an internal/domestic transaction. USD is not a commonly used currency
for internal trade within this economic environment and therefore the contract would not qualify for
this exemption.
Accordingly, company A is required to separate the embedded foreign currency derivative from the host
purchase contract and recognise it separately as a derivative.
The separated embedded derivative is a forward contract entered into on 9 September 20X1, to
exchange USD 10,00,000 for ` at the USD/` forward rate of 67.8 on 31 December 20X1. Since the
forward exchange rate has been deemed to be the market rate on the date of the contract, the
embedded forward contract has a fair value of zero on initial recognition.
Subsequently, company A is required to measure this forward contract at its fair value, with changes in
fair value recognised in the statement of profit and loss. The following is the accounting treatment at
quarter-end and on settlement:
Accounting treatment:
Date Particulars Amount (`) Amount (`)
09-Sep-X1 On initial recognition of the forward contract Nil Nil
(No accounting entry recognised since initial fair value of the
forward contract is considered to be nil)
30-Sep-X1 Fair value change in forward contract 3,00,000
Derivative asset (company B) Dr.
[(67.8-67.5) x10,00,000]
To Profit or loss 3,00,000
31-Dec-X1 Fair value change in forward contract
Forward contract asset (company B) Dr.
[{(67.8-67) x 10,00,000} - 3,00,000] 5,00,000
To Profit or loss 5,00,000
31-Dec-X1 Recognition of machinery acquired and on settlement
Property, plant and equipment Dr. 6,78,00,000
(at forward rate)
To Forward contract asset (company B) 8,00,000
To Creditor (company B) / Bank 6,70,00,000
