–––––– ––––––
252,350 252,350The following information is relevant:
(i) The directors had the building valued at $24 million on 1 January
20X8 by an independent surveyor. The directors wish to
incorporate this value into the financial statements. The building
was originally purchased 4 years ago and is being depreciated
over its original useful life of 20 years which has not changed as a
result of the revaluation. Weiser does not make a transfer to
retained earnings in respect of excess amortisation. The
revaluation gain will create a deferred tax liability (see note (ii)).
Plant and equipment is being depreciated at 20% per annum on a
reducing balance basis. All depreciation/amortisation should be
charged to cost of sales.
(ii) A provision for income tax for the year ended 31 December 20X8
of $12 million is required. At 31 December 20X8, the tax base of
Weiser’s net assets was $7 million less than their carrying
amounts. This excludes the gain on the revaluation of the building.
The income tax rate of Weiser is 30%.ANS
Current assets
Inventory 27,400
Receivables 16,500

Good day,I don’t understand why the bank value of 1,100 was excluded from the current assets.I’ll appreciate if you can explain betterSeptember 11, 2022 at 9:05 pm #666183Hi,
I presume as it was a credit balance and therefore included within current liabilities.
Thanks

October 30, 2022 at 4:42 pm #670318I’m not sure as it isn’t a question that we have prepared and the original post did not state where it was taken from either.
Thanks
