also note (iii)i dont understand how trade receivables,payables,finance expenese were calculated
note (vi) why was the $16m recorded as a current liability
Ask the Tutor ACCA SBR
JUNE 2012 Question 1(a)
Hello sir
11y ago#2The double entry on acquisition appears to have been Dr Investment in Hail 55m, Cr Cash 50m and Cr OCI 5m.
The entry should have been Dr Cost of Investment, Cr Cash
To reverse the bad element, we need to Dr OCI and Cr Cost of Investment with the excess 5m
OK?
Thank you..how long has the current p2 examiner been setting the paper?the reason i ask is because i was trying to do a question from june 2005,but it was very hard and the structure was different too
11y ago#4Much, much longer than 9 years!
