    hello sir,

    i am having problem in understanding ex 5 in eps lecture. how to find out that which loan stock is more dilutive of the two? it depends on the date of issue or MEPS?

    what do you mean by “most dilutive”

    thank you

    Sheryl, I’m sure I’ve answered this before.

    We need to consider each loan stock conversion in isolation.

    Calculate the MEPS and then compare those MEPSs

    The loan stock conversion that earns less in terms of MEPS is the one to consider first before the conversion with the higher MEPS

    Is that better for you?

    yes sir
    sorry to post it twice.
    actually i posted this long back because you dint reply to my comment in the individual lecture thread and then i read somewhere that i should ask ques in the ask tutor section so..:)

    thank you

    please can you reply to my ques on agriculture which i had posted earlier in the ask tutor section itself. i will just copy the ques here 🙂

    ———–

    i have a problem in agriculture example

    (any changes during a period in fair value less costs to sell of biological assets are reported in the statement of profit or loss)

    my question :

    if this is the case then why dint we take the FV change of new born calves at 1 April 2013 when they were born (as 49.35 should be there value at intial recognition )compared with the FV after 6months 31 Sep 2013 ($58.15) into profit or loss instead took the whole amount at the end of the year to the income statement.

    like we did for matured cows. we took the intial Cost of 235 per cow – FV at reporting date 227.95 = 7.05 in IS as revaluation.

    Is it that revaluation is calculated only at the reporting date?

    solution in the notes:

    asset of 5,000 x $58.15 = $290,750 recognised in the statement of financial position and credited to income in the
    statement of profit or loss

    thank you

    Hi

    I answered this one last evening! I’ll ignore this post and hope that you find my response from yesterday. If not then, with huge apologies, you’ll need to post it for a third time 🙁
