    Hi Mike,

    RE: Chapter 3, Example 1

    I am slightly confused as to the treatment of item (iii) in the question. Could you kindly explain the significance of £25,000 and why this value was used in the Statement of P/L as opposed to (£130,000-£95,000) = £35,000 ?

    Many thanks!

    Here is the question in…er..question:
    ————————————————–

    B Co Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income extracts for the year ended 31 December, 2009
    $’000
    Net profit for the year 421
    Dividend (98)
    Retained profit 323

    During the year the following important events took place:
    (i) Properties were revalued by $105,000 increase.
    (ii) $200,000 of $1 share capital was issued during the year at a 25c premium
    (iii) A non-current asset with a carrying value of $130,000 was written down to $95,000. The impairment occurred as a result of general
    price changes. The revaluation surplus account contains $25,000 relating to this asset.

    (iv) Opening equity was:
    $
    Issued capital 400,000
    Share premium 50,000
    Revaluation surplus 165,000
    Retained earnings 310,000
    ————
    925,000

    Show how the events for the year would be shown in the Statement of Changes in Equity.

    The part of the answer from the book relevant to my query:
    ——————————————————————————–

    Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income
    Profit for the period 421
    Other recognised income and expense
    Surplus on property revaluation 105
    Impairment loss (25)
    80
    ———-

    Dear Sir
    Where can we find the solutions for the examples given in course notes, to check if we have done correctly or not for paper F7

    Many thanks
