Thank you for your reply.
If it is irrelevant how many people end up taking the discount. Why can’t I calculate example 2 of chapter 5 in the following way?
Current receivable days: 30*20% + 60*50% + 90* 30% = 63 days
Offer discount 1% for payment within 30 days.
(1+1/99)^ 365/(63-30)-1 = 11.76% < 15%
Should offer discount. (which is wrong)
Hi John,
60%*15+40%*40 = 25 days,
therefore with discount, we will shorten receivable days by 40-25= 15 days.
( (1 + 1/99) ^ (365/15) ) – 1 = 0.277
There is not one answer of 27.7%. Many thanks.
Does the bank certificate only cover information until the client’s year end? If I want to check after date payments to verify the completeness of the trade payables balance, do I need the client’s post year end bank statements as the bank certificate won’t give me that information? Thank you.
Does the bank certificates as detailed as the bank statements? Many thanks.
Thank you~
Hi Mike,
But why in BPP revision kit Q38 (Hillusion) and Q39 (Hydan), goodwill impairments are both deducted from NCI (SofCI)? Thanks.
This is the answer from the ACCA: You can use your answer booklet for calculations. Please put a line through any rough working that you do not wish to be considered as part of your answer.
Thank you very much. That helps a lot.
