most the questions about consolidated financial statement , Events after the reporting date and earning per share , one of B questions was Events after the reporting date and almost 5 question in A also adjusting and non adjusting event , even the interpretation question i had to adjust pervious year before calculating ratios .
I’ve got almost 6 questions regarding how to calculate the investment when we calculate the goodwill or just investment even in question C .a lot of important area was not covered in the Exam , like tangible non current asset , revenue , lease , financial instrument
this is 3 rd time i take this Exam it was strange collection of questionsDecember 8, 2022 at 4:52 pm #673973Could not finish exam due to technical issues lost most of work. Started on Section C which was bizarre with the Interpretation of FS – 2 possible subs for Parent to invest in but one wanted a wired “Cost Model” calculation that was bizarre (calculating ratios for both subs). Did anyone else have this question? Have rebooked for contingency week next week but ACCA really need to improve this online platform as there are too many issues leading to students like me getting very frustrated!
December 8, 2022 at 5:12 pm #673979Had that one, did not like much of that exam..
December 8, 2022 at 5:29 pm #673981Who picked lime as the best sub? I know they had worse profit but looked more stable, anyone else think so or have I got that wrong? Haha
December 8, 2022 at 5:36 pm #673984There were quite a lot of consolidated group related questions
December 8, 2022 at 5:42 pm #673986Did you understand the first bit about “Cost Model” on one of the subs and incorporating the answer from part a into the ratios for Lime I think?
December 8, 2022 at 5:52 pm #673987@mwills7 I got that one as well.
I credited the assets back to their original cost
Debited depreciation into operating expenses – difference between what acc. dep. would’ve been if there was no revaluation to the acc. dep. at the SFP date after revaluation. Only on the building though as land doesn’t depreciate.
Debited the revaluation surplus the difference to clear it off, ultimately affecting equity.Adjusted equity, OPEX & the assets accordingly.
Not sure if I did the right thing or not to be honest as it threw me off a little bit but hopefully someone can cross-reference my logic
December 8, 2022 at 5:57 pm #673989Think it was just asking with the cost model to depreciate it as the revaluation model wouldn’t have done that this would have affected the nca, depreciation in operating expenses and equity with the revaluation surplus although I feel like I did it wrong
December 8, 2022 at 6:18 pm #673992I did the same as you on this question @udoihonor. Depreciated the building as if it was at cost over the period & added the difference between the depreciation at cost and at revaluation to opex. I deducted the property reval from equity and also the diff in deprecation as it said they had opted to adjust for that in RE. No idea if I got the double entry right. ?
I also got consolidated p&l with 3 subs and a disposal part way through the period on the other q – which was tricky!
December 8, 2022 at 7:27 pm #674008Section.c got lime and lemon question. I would say todays paper was hard. Lots of questions about consolidation. . Adjusting events and non adjusting event . Section c . Consolidated p&l with disposal of subsidiary.
got stuck with the discontinued part .
December 9, 2022 at 8:34 am #674067Haha I too picked Lime
December 9, 2022 at 10:28 pm #674123Hey guys!
I’m a bit confused so I just wanted to ask if you guys got the consolidated financial position question? It said part a on my screen and was for 20 marks. I completed and clicked on next and there was no question and the review screen said that the question is complete. So, I just want to confirm from those of you that got that question that it was the only part in the question.
December 10, 2022 at 10:28 am #674159Did anyone get the pine and skein co question in ratios? And profit & loss single statement for the other section c question?
December 10, 2022 at 11:46 am #674166@Mycomeback . I’ve got the same, it’s confused me, i thought i missed something ..
^^December 10, 2022 at 8:03 pm #674195@sooha thank God I’m not alone. We’re fine then haha.
December 11, 2022 at 9:56 am #674259
@sooha how did you do the adjustments for inventory in sec cDecember 11, 2022 at 6:27 pm #674304Well I have realised how much Ive forgotten about the way I answered after reading all of this. It was the section C of a CSPL for a parent with two subsidiaries, one of which disposed of half way through the year, that really annoys me. There are no examples I can find of this online. I treated the CSPL for just the subsidiary Sourdough and used the discontinued operations line for Dijon.
I removed the full year intergroup trading from Revenue and Cost of Sales, then added back the PUP for the amount remaining in inventory in Cost of Sales.I think I lucked out in some ways because I really covered consolidated accounts near the exam but Im still worried Ive come out feeling okay and I could have gotten too many wrong.
December 12, 2022 at 11:09 am #674338Anyone got Snake & Python(CSOFP) + Aircraft manufacturer ratios question?
I got 7 MCQs on consolidation in addition to the CR (34 marks in total) . For this exam they didn’t even try to test all portions of the syllabus which was very weird. This most likely will give a very skewed result as those who studied the tested topics well would score much more than others. Anyways, good luck to everyone! Fingers crossed for 16th Jan
December 12, 2022 at 1:35 pm #674351+1
I got the same paper, and i felt very weird because of the combination of questions
Do your remember the consolidated sec a questions ? Most of it was goodwill calculation right…i don’t remember if we had to take NCI anywhere was there any questions like that or was it just the consideration calculation with cash, shares and deferred consideration…December 13, 2022 at 2:42 pm #674439@sreevarshini , i don’t think what i did is correct , i took the closing inventory they gave as the figure for year closing inventory and i calculated the current asset accordingly , the different between closing and opining then deducted it from the profit , i haven’t focust on adjusting event and , i got a lot of questions about it in the exam
did you got the same ?how did you do it ?December 14, 2022 at 9:22 am #674528I too took the difference but i am unable to recollect if i added or subtracted it:/
What about the questions in sec a about goodwill investment, there was this one which had 70000, shares at acquisition it was $2 but at 2018 it was 3 something do you remember which option you clicked? Like whether 1,2,3,4?December 14, 2022 at 9:24 am #674529For the ratios sec a questions they asked smthng abt rights issue, like which ratio increases if rights issue proceeds is received
Roce, net asset turnover, quick ratio and GP
Does anyone of you know which one is it?December 15, 2022 at 12:37 pm #674670@sreevarshini , for Good will investment i used at the acquisition share ,because goodwill i
believe we should calculated what ever we get at acquisition the the difference with reporting date go to the calculation of profit of something , what about you ?December 15, 2022 at 12:44 pm #674672there was question about which ratio will change By right issue – i’ve selected asset turn over ….
i guess… i remember i’ve choice asset turn over but i am not sure what the question was lol ^^ - AuthorPosts
