April 26, 2017 at 2:40 pm #383977i dont know how to deal with the adjustment
April 26, 2017 at 4:25 pm #383991Which adjustment?
Note (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v)?
April 26, 2017 at 4:35 pm #383994Note 2 and 3
April 26, 2017 at 5:16 pm #384019You haven’t told me yet what the question requirement is!
However, I assume that it’s a cash flow question
Start with profit before interest and tax
and then add back non-cash items
the first non-cash item which, in exam questions, is ALWAYS there is depreciation … so that’s an add-back to profit before interest and tax … and that’s point (ii) dealt with
And now, the borrowings …
Open up a T account and call it Borrowings
Bring forward the opening figures of 21, 9 and 424
Carry forward the closing equivalent balances of 134, 11 and 1,105
Record the payment of 30 during the year (Dr Borrowings Cr Cash)
Record the receipt of the new loan (Dr Cash Cr Borrowings)
and now you have an account that balances
Fot the purposes of the cash flow, there are two amounts that need to appear within the ‘financing activities’ section
Repayment of Borrowings (30)
New borrowings 826OK now?
