Hello Sir,
for example 1, i have some difficulties for the adjustment C).
If no sale was done, why not remove the whole sale value??? which means profit decreasing by 2400???
why only 400???? :S … It says it was accounted as a firm sale, and the sale value is 2400???? So by removing it, we should decrease the profit by 2400?? 🙁
Oops… just got the answer from the lecture itself… #FeelingSilly
Thank you! 😀
Admin/ Sir Moffat,
Where can I find the list of answers for the revision mock exams so that I may know how to solve the questions that I answered right/ wrong? Unlike F2 mock test, F3 does not show the answers after u enter the answers. Plz help!!! My exam is on Monday!
You could see the correct answers when you completed the f3 mock exam..
Hi ,Does anyone know the procedure how to prepare consolidated balance sheet,I need any example how to follow the steps .
Try watching my lecture on the consolidated statement of financial position (used to be called balance sheet) on this website!!!
Hi. I found question (d) in example 1, trickier than it actually was. My initial reaction was that it would have no effect on profit as it was a prepayment BUT, presumably prepayments just affect the Balance Sheet and NOT the Income Statement. Am I correct, even though I got the answer wrong initially? Kindest P.
Prepayments affect the income statement as well. If part of the payment was for next year, then the expense for this year is lower than what was actually paid (and therefore the profit is higher).
Also. Why are long term liabilities added to capital to calculate ROCE? Why wouldn’t they be subtracted to get net assets. Maybe it’s to to with the Assets = Liabilities + capital equation and/or Assets’ debits and credits are (sort of) reversed? Best P.
Just heard in a later lecture LT Liabilities are loans which answer’s my question above.
Fantastic lecture. Lecturer’s sense of humour would make me pay attention 100% while sitting in class. Keep it up. Thank you so much.
@munico1. The sale has been made but, the customer has not yet confirm the sale and because we would like to match the profit to the exact year, we did have to remove the profit until it is being confirmed.
That is what i think.
@akinfenwa,Yes – you would remove the sale, but you would also have to increase the inventory. So..the net effect is to lose the profit!
Hi admin, in relation to example 1, entry c) in adjustment to profits, could you please explain why it is only the profit removed yet the sale in effect hasn’t been made. Shouldn’t the sale figure also be removed?
Thanx
@munico1, i guess its bcuz qs says “no confirmation of sale had been received”
so customer may actually confirm the sale in future.if we removed it now , it can be prob later
in relation to entry c) could someone please explain why it is only the profit removed yet the sale in effect hasn’t been made and the sale figure should in my opinion be also removed.
Thanx
when an entry is omitted it does not effect the trail balance… but still it is entred in the suspence account..??
@dexter34, If an entry is completely missed out (no debit and no credit) then it does not affect the suspense account.
how would the profit be adjusted if the cost was 7930 and NRV 8920. Are we still deducting 990. Someone should help me please.
@markadi, The profit would not be adjusted because inventory would have been valued at the lower of cost and NRV. In this case, an adjustment would only be necessary, as in the example if inventory had been valued at the higher of cost and NRV.
Is the difference between the error of commission and error of principle that, the error in commission is between similar nature accounts and the error in principle is between different nature accounts? admin?
@Shiraz, Yes – you are correct.
