    Time consuming!!! i dintnt total my Q3 just moved on as i overrun so no idea if it balanced.

    i assumed the note 1 for revenue was to do with the fact that it was a sale n repurchase to be bought back in 3 years so should have been treated as debt.

    i think i did what you did
    i derecognize it from my sales
    and calculated the interest rate because it included in my finance cost

    i had a loss after tax of (210)
    total comprehensive income 590 positive

    the only difficult aspect for me in the exam was interpretation of financial statement.
    the same that was awful for me in the last diet
    i hope i scale through this time, although i still calculated it and answered my best.

    still thanks to F7 opentuition lecturer who gave me hope when i was lost it earlier.

    did anybody get the dividend of 20,000 X 0.2 = 4000
    did anybody get the loan interest =1000

    my issue was that other component which was 9300 recorded in the trial balance
    since there was a share premium of 7000, i assumed the 2300 was the balance b/f and added it

    did anybody do this

    I had 500 for other comprehensive income from gain on revaluation. Must have missed some note for the other 90.

    The ratios ques threw me.

    Fingers crossed!!

    Q3 part b – what was the treatment? Remain as associate of financial asset? Remained 35% equity stake but lost seats at board of directors?

    Didn’t recall studying this so prob lost 5 marks automatically depending on the answer. I said keep as associate.

    I guessed a bit at this but noted the dates. 9 months before agresso bought 65% so I said only recored 9 months of their share of myno profits. Then after that to not include in accounts as they lost significant influence by losing board seats and the subsidiary no longer holds any of its own shares…but I made that last bit up just had to put something in there and still can’t find anything in study notes that covers this!!

    I can’t remember a lot with this one but my dividend came to 6k . I think I calculated it on 30000 shares as they issued 10000 in the q so added them into the calc …think I made my own rules up tbh tho!

    i realised in the question they said the dividend paid is 20c and it was issued a day after as a cash issue of 10,000 unit at full market value of $1.7 and the share premium was recorded in the other component equity.( not exactly the wordings)

    in the trial balance 2015
    equity……………………………………………………………….30000
    other equity issue……………………………………………… 9300
    loans and interest……………………………………………….5000

    so i realised that
    dividend of 20,000 X 0.2….4000
    get the finance interest…..1000
    TOTAL ………………………….5000

    SHARE CAPITAL@$1 IS 10,000 X 1 =10,000
    SHARECAPITAL@0.7 IS 10,000 X 0.7 =7000

    I guess what you did was 30,000 x 0.2 = 6000

    @laurlou said:

    3000 x 0.5 x 0.1(since it is for the six months) = 150

    SHARE PREMIUM @0.7 IS 10,000 X 0.7 =7000

    I guess what you did was 30,000 x 0.2 = 6000

    FINANCE COST FOR SALE AND REPURCHASE
    3000 x 0.5 x 0.1(since it is for the six months) = 150

    the finance payment was the 10000 which was on the loan note of 20,000 x 0.1 x 6/12=1000

    i hope i am not wrong?
    did anyone do this too

    I thought it was

    Cash in: loan notes 20000
    issues cost 500
    total 20500@effective 8%= 1640 (add the additionl 640)

    i don’t know if i am correct, this is what i did

    lets keep our fingers crossed

    cash in loan note = 20,000
    admin expenses = (500)
    total =19500

    effective interest rate for 1year is
    opening balance = 19500
    1 yr x0.08 x 19500 = 1560
    loan note interest =(1000)
    year end liabilities= 20060
    (0.05 x 20,000) because it is a 5% 20,000 loan note which gives the interest of 1000

    then i deducted the 500 from admin cost.

    so the 1000 +4000 = 5000 is included in the loan note interest and dividend like a proof to check calculations.

    i think loan cost cant go under admin expenses

    so you should have taken 500 out of admin and add back into initial loan amount (20500)
