CA Inter Nov 2020 Accounts Question Paper

Question 1.
(a) A Ltd. had following assets. Calculate depreciation for the year ending 31st March, 2020 for each asset as per AS 10 (Revised) (5 Marks)

1. Machinery purchased for ₹ 10 lakhson 1st April, 2015 and residual value after useful life of 5 years, based on 2015 prices is ₹ 10 lakhs.
2. Land for ₹ 50 lakhs.
3. A Machinery is constructed for ₹ 5,00,000 for its own use (useful life is 10 years). Construction is completed on 1st April, 2019, but the company does not begin using the machine until 31st March, 2020.
4. Machinery purchased on 1st April, 2017 for ₹ 50,000 with useful life of 5 years and residual value is NIL. On 1st April, 2019, management decided to use this asset for further 2 years only.

Answer:

Asset	Workings	Depreciation
Machinery	Cost on 1st April, 2015 = 10 Lacs Book Value on 31st March, 2020 is below the residual value.Thus, as per AS 10, there will be no depreciation for the year ending 31st March, 2020.	Nil
Land	Not a depreciable asset	Nil
Machinery	Depreciation begins when asset is ready for use. Thus, even if the company has not started using the asset, it does not make any difference.	50,000
Machinery	Cost on 1st April, 2017 = 50,000 Book Value as on 1st April, 2019 = 40,000	20,000
	Since there has been a change in the useful life, the unamortised deprecia­ble amount will be written off over the remaining useful life i.e. 2 years

(b) On 1st April, 2016, Mac Ltd. received a Government Grant of ₹ 60 lakhs for acquisition of machinery costing ₹ 300 lakhs. The grant was credited to the cost of the asset. The estimated useful life of the machinery is 10 years. The machinery is depreciated @ 10% on WDV basis. The company had to refund the grant in June 2019 due to non-compliance of certain conditions.

How the refund of the grant is dealt with in the books of Mac Ltd. assuming that the company did not charge any depreciation for the year 2019-20.
Pass necessary Journal Entries for the year 2019-20. (5 Marks)
Answer:
What AS-12 states:
According to para 21 of AS 12, the amount refundable in respect of a grant related to a specific fixed asset should be recorded by increasing the book value of the asset or by reducing deferred income balance, as appropriate, by the amount refundable.

Where the book value is increased, depreciation on the revised book value should be provided prospectively over the residual useful life of the asset.

Analysis and conclusion:
Journal Entry:
(For refund of grant)
Given – The Grant was credited to Machinery Account:

Particulars
Machinery A/c Dr. To Bank A/c (Being grant refunded)	60 lakhs	60 lakhs

Balance of Machinery after three years but before refund:
Machinery was initially recorded in the books = ₹ 300 lakhs – ₹ 60 lakhs = ₹ 240 lakhs
Value of machinery after three years but before refund of grant = ₹ 240 lakhs × 0.9 × 0.9 × 0.9
= ₹ 174.96 lakhs
Balance of machinery after refund of grant:
= (₹ 174.96 lakhs + ₹ 60 lakhs) = ₹ 234.96 lakhs

(c) A Limited invested in the shares of XYZ Ltd. on 1st December, 2019 at a cost of ₹ 50,000. Out of these shares ₹ 25,000 shares were purchased with an intention to hold for 6 months and ₹ 25,000 shares were purchased with an intention to hold as long-term Investment.

A Limited also earlier purchased Gold of ₹ 1,00,000 and Silver of ₹ 30,00,000 on 1st April, 2019. Market value as on 31st March, 2020 of above investments are as follows :
Shares – ₹ 47,500 (Decline in the value of shares is temporary.)
Gold – ₹ 1,80,000
Silver – ₹ 30,55,000
How above investments will be shown in the books of account of M/s. A Limited for the year ending 31st March, 2020 as per the provision of AS 13 (Revised)? (5 Marks)
Answer:
What AS-13 states:
As per AS 13, for investment in shares – if the investment is purchased, with an-intention to hold for short-term period (less than one year), then it will be classified as current investment and to be carried at lower of cost and fair value.

If equity shares are acquired with an intention to hold for long term period (more than one year), then should be considered as long-term investment to be shown at cost in the Balance Sheet of the company. However, provision for diminution should be made to recognize a decline, if other than temporary, in the value of the investments.

Analysis and conclusion:
In case of shares:
25,000 shares will be valued at lower of cost (₹ 25,000) and market value (₹ 23,750) as on 31 March 2020, i.e., ₹ 23,750.

Rest of the 25,000 shares will be valued at cost as it is a long-term investment.

Gold and Silver are generally purchased with an intention to hold it for long term period until and otherwise given. Hence the investment in gold and silver (purchases on 1st April 2019 shall continue to be shown at cost as on 31st March 2020 i.e. ₹ 1,00,000 and ₹ 30,00,000 respectively, though their realizable values have been increased. If held as short term then it should be valued at lower of cost or fair value (Market price).

Answer:
What AS-16 states:
According to AS 16, borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset should be capitalised as part of the cost of that asset.

Other borrowing costs should be recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

Analysis and conclusion:
Amount of borrowing costs capitalized and expensed off should be calculated as follows:

Note:
It has been assumed that construction of factory shed will normally take more than a year (substantial period of time), hence considered as qualifying asset.

# (6,02,000 – 52,000)

# # For financial statement purposes, this would form part of closing stock (since there is no actual sale). However, this has been shown separately for computation of claim for loss of stock since the goods were physically with the consignee and thus, there was no loss of such stock.

Working Note:
Computation of Adjusted Purchases:

Particulars	₹
Purchases Less: Purchase of machinery Less: Withdrawn by partners [52,000 – 20%]	4,48,000 (41,600) (58,000)

Computation of loss of stock:

Particulars	₹
Book value of stock as on 30.09.2019 Less: Stock salvaged Loss of stock	1,88,100 (35,000)

Answer:
Step 1:
Equation to Identify the amount of CRR Transfer:
Preference Share Capital (Face Value of PSC)
= Capital Redemption Reserve (CRR) + Proceeds of Fresh Issue (Without premium)
30,00,000 = 19,50,000 (Balancing figure) + 10,50,000 (Working note)
30,00,000 = 19,50,000 + 10,50,000

Let monthly sales = x
Computation of Sales ratio:

Particulars
Sales for pre-incorporation period (x multiplied by 4 months) Sales for post-incorporation period (1.25 multiplied by 8 months)	4x lOx

Therefore,
Sales Ratio = 4 : 10 i.e. 2 : 5
