    SIR,

    THIS IS A KAPLAN QESTION NO 385
    BUSSINESS COMBIANATION QUESTION
    THE REQUIRMENT JUST ENDED WITH FINDING SOPL BUT THERE WAS NOT EVEN A SINGLE QUESTION
    TO FIND;- the treatment in sofp for unrealized profit(if the subsidary is the seller
    plus when there is goods in transit when subsidary despacthes the goods to parent

    please help me with the 1st one

    1.LAUREL ACCUIRED 60% OF RAKEWOOD
    Laurel had traded with Rakewood for many years before the acquisition. Sales from
    Rakewood to Laurel throughout the year ended 30 September 20X6 were
    consistently $1.2m per month. Rakewood made a mark-up on cost of 20% on these
    sales. Laurel had $1.8m of these goods in inventory as at 30 September 20X6.

    I understood this senario which is vice versa to the question above
    385 kaplan DARGENT co

    The inventory of Latree Co includes goods bought from Dargent Co for $2.1m.

    2.Dargent Co applies a consistent mark-up on cost of 40% when arriving at its selling
    prices.
    On 28 March 20X6, Dargent Co despatched goods to Latree Co with a selling price of
    $700,000. These were not received by Latree Co until after the year-end, and so
    have not been included in the above inventory at 31 March 20X6.
    At 31 March 20X6, Dargent Co’s records showed a receivable due from Latree Co of
    $3m. This differed to the equivalent payable in Latree Co’s records due to the goods
    in transit.
    The intra-group reconciliation should be achieved by assuming that Latree Co had
    received the goods in transit before the year-end

    please help me with the 1st one

    THANKS

    Hi,

    1. In the SFP, you need to adjust for the provision for unrealised profit on the $1.8 million of inventory still held at the reporting date.

    2. In the SFP, you need to record the inventory in transit first and then eliminate the unrealised profit on the inventory sold. You will also need to eliminate any intra-group balances on the SFP.

    Have a go using the numbers you have mentioned above and see how you get on. I can then help you see if you’ve got them right.

    Thanks
