    I found the lease question a little strange. they asked about the right of use? there were the years for amortization given. But they gave the interest rate that I didn’t find what to use for… Am I missing something?
    somebody pls explain

    In the lease q they had given the present value of lease
    They asked for right of use amount to be put in P&L
    I remember calculating total lease payments which were more than the present value

    For the Asset “right to use”, the present value was given, therefore you just had to depreciate the asset. eg 17000- (17000/20). If the present value wasnt given, you would have have to find the pv of the cash flow for the liability. ans that present value would have become the opening for the “right to use asset”. The Asset (right to use ) you depreciate and the liability , you amortize.

    in term of what goes to the P&L, you put depreciation

    About the lease what I did was just to depreciate the present value given. But now cannot remember if they wanted all the amounts to the Profit and loss???
    If it’s so than I missed to calculate the interest charges for the year…

    You are right this is what I did but
    Do you remember well what was the question ?
    Was it enough to reach the depreciation only or we had to add the interest charge as well

    I did exactly the same except that I subtracted the FV adjustment. I jut realised I misread the question. I hope I don’t lose many marks.

    Hi Mark,

    Yes I did the CBE one. It was question 31 which was in the word format and just showed my workings. 32 was spreadsheet.

    How did you find the exam?

    I was slightly confused by Q32 as it gave total net assets and liabilities but seemed to miss out current assets or liabilities I think so wasnt sure whether i was supposed to put a balancing figure in for one of those??

    I found section A & B mostly straight forward. And question 31 was fine but 32 threw me a bit.

    Do you remember any answers to questions you put?

    Comment if you disagree,

    I agree. But then when compiling the consolidated statement of financial position what other adjustment did you put for the inventory fair value adjustment at acquisition that was sold almost completely by year end (only 10% remained unsold at year end)?
    Did you adjust retained earning and inventory?

    I haven’t seen any other past paper with this scenario.

    The consideration in 32 I multiplied by the discount and then divided by 1.08

    I just guessed this
    Does Somebody know for sure how to do it?

    yes you are correct . It was a future cost. July 2015 I think. and you always discount future cost.

    Step 1 :
    Dr asset
    Cr liability

    Step 2:
    then unwind the discount. ( this part was not needed as we were doing a SFP)
    Dr ;intrest (I/S)
    Cr. Liability ons SFP

    The (600,000*90%) of inventory is already sold, so have to adjust in our retain earning for the rest 10 % of FV adjustment by deducting because which overstate our cost of sales by 10%. And also in CSFp we adjust both for PURP (25%) and this 10% of Fv adjustment for group inventory. Note that the PURP affects only group reserves, b/CE the intergroup sale is from parent to Sub.

    Surely If I Had Been Sensible Enogh – I Could Have Added Other 6-8 marks In MCQ ..
    But It Happens. .
    Time pressure Ruined My Few Marks…
    But Still Looks Like I Can Achieve Decent Score Of 62-63 in F7 .

    The Problem Is F8 ..
    Paper Went Below Average …
    But Again I Think I Had Done Enough To Attain 50..
    Anywhere Between 47-57 Is A Probability In F8 …

    Seee You All In Result day Comment Section…

    Hope For The Best …
    Cant Wait For The Result From Now Only Haha….
