Hi Sir, I am having some difficulties regards to acca december 2010 questions
On 1 June 2010, Premier acquired 80% of the equity share capital of Sanford. The consideration consisted of two
elements: a share exchange of three shares in Premier for every fi ve acquired shares in Sanford and the issue of a
$100 6% loan note for every 500 shares acquired in Sanford. The share issue has not yet been recorded by Premier,
but the issue of the loan notes has been recorded. At the date of acquisition shares in Premier had a market value of
$5 each and the shares of Sanford had a stock market price of $3·50 each. Below are the summarised draft fi nancial
statements of both companies.

The following information is relevant:
(i) At the date of acquisition, the fair values of Sanford’s assets were equal to their carrying amounts with the
exception of its property. This had a fair value of $1·2 million below its carrying amount. This would lead to a
reduction of the depreciation charge (in cost of sales) of $50,000 in the post-acquisition period. Sanford has not
incorporated this value change into its entity financial statements.Premier’s group policy is to revalue all properties to current value at each year end. On 30 September 2010, the
value of Sanford’s property was unchanged from its value at acquisition, but the land element of Premier’s property had increased in value by $500,000 as shown in other comprehensive income.I am curious about why for the increase in value by 500,000 we does not have to add it to revaluation of land account? is that means they mentioned that already shown in other comprehensive income so that means they already recognized it so we does not have to do any adjustment?or because of the sofp given for the land revaluation is at 30 september 2010 already?
November 22, 2016 at 3:51 pm #350679“why for the increase in value by 500,000 we does not have to add it to revaluation of land account”
It’s already accounted for – look in the Statement of Comprehensive Income:
“Other comprehensive income:
Gain on revaluation of land (note (i)) 500 nil”There’s the $500,000 already recognised
November 22, 2016 at 4:20 pm #350694oic sir, may I know what is cost of reorganization is it an expenses or capitalized items?
November 22, 2016 at 4:47 pm #350703It’s an expense
November 22, 2016 at 5:04 pm #350709I want to ask gain or loss equity investment after doa for sltd one will put into post profit to minus or plus? or it will go into revaluation reserve? or both are accept
November 22, 2016 at 8:50 pm #350756It’s a post-acquisition gain – add it into retained earnings
November 26, 2016 at 4:00 am #351526May I know what is the reason cannot treat it as revaluation?
November 26, 2016 at 5:53 am #351535Because it’s not TNCA
November 26, 2016 at 12:20 pm #351620investment and equity investment are not the same?
November 26, 2016 at 1:42 pm #351637Investment suggests a controlling holding in a subsidiary
Equity investment suggests merely a (non-controlling) holding in the shares of another entity
Which question are you looking at – I don’t think that it’s Premier
November 26, 2016 at 2:15 pm #351649I am looking at
This is the point with regards to
acca f7 december 2002 -question 1The fair value of Sulphate’s investment was Rs.5 million in excess of its book value at the date of
acquisition. The fair values of Sulphate’s other net assets were equal to their book values.This is the point regards to acca f7 june 2013- q1
additional information (iv)
(iv) The financial asset equity investments of Paradigm and Strata are carried at their fair values as at 1 April
2012. As at 31 March 2013, these had fair values of $7·1 million and $3·9 million respectively.I not understand y for the acca dec 2002 tht question can treat it as revaluation but for acca f7 june cannot treat it as revaluation?
November 27, 2016 at 5:56 am #351765Do you think that maybe the rules could have changed in the 11 years since Sulphate?
