I am doing a cashflow question and current asset are as follows
2009 2010
$510 $ 688
There is a revaluation reserve in 2010 of 60 and the notes states that non current assets include certain properties which were revalued in the year
This is my answer:
Investing activities
Purchase of new asset $118
but I am not sure what to do with the revaluation. I just left it out
and
July 22, 2015 at 7:10 pm #261440You have posted this in the F2 forum – cash flows statements are not examinable in F2. I assume that you meant to post it in the F3 forum 🙂
If there was no revaluation reserve in 2009, then it means that the assets were revalued this year.
So the revaluation would put the value up to 570 (510 + 60) and the acquisitions would only be the extra 58 (assuming of course that there was no depreciation this year – which surely there is – and that there were no disposals).
I do suggest that you watch our free lectures on Statements of cash flows (and on everything else – they are a complete course for Paper F3).
July 23, 2015 at 2:22 pm #261503I got 118 to be the extra for acquistion
688-570
can you verify thank you. thank for lectures
July 23, 2015 at 3:31 pm #261513Sorry – you are correct.
The extra for acquisition is 118 (but it is strange if there is no mention of depreciation, because this would make it different).July 23, 2015 at 10:43 pm #261566thank you the question did have depreciation of $87,000 hence the acquisition value I got was $205,0000
opening 510,000
revaluation 60,000
Depreciation (87,000)
closing 688,000
Therefore acquisition changed to 205,000
July 24, 2015 at 7:45 am #261585That is correct 🙂
July 24, 2015 at 3:56 pm #261724thank you
