Adjusting Events - Additional Evidence

Accountancy

answered on 07-Mar-24 08:44

Hi sir, hope you're well. Let us say at balance sheet date, provision for doubtful debts from a customer stood at 20%. However due to a tsunami the customer's entire premises were wiped out and thus had to be 100% written of in our company's books. Here, would this constitute an adjusting event? Since we cannot really say that the circumstances of 100% write-off existed at balance sheet date, since the event of the tsunami happened after balance sheet date only. So my question is would this be considered an adjusting event, and if so, why. Thanks

latest answer

Non adjusting event since conditions were not existent on balance sheet date.

Dear sir, as per the question given, b=40% and r=25% What is the logic behind writing " b*r" as "40*0.25" ( i.e. only r as decimal) {3m 48s} and writing "b*r" as "0.4*0.25" (i.e both b and r as decimals) {4m 12s} ?

Calculation doubt

Financial Reporting

answered on 03-Mar-24 21:02

When I was solving , I thought about the amount to be transferred to current liab as on 31 March of year 1 shall be 24000 ( 30000*50000/62500) I divided 25000 in the ratio of number of months. As training period is 18 months which means in 12 months of first year and 6 month of next. Hence I divided the training cost as 50 k for year 1 and 12500 for year 2 and accordingly solved. What logic went wrong?

Hello Sir, In the complier illustration-10, in calculating MIRR I think instead of Cashflows PV of cashflows are multiplied with the FVF. Also, in illustration excel file few solutions are missing (3, 4, 7, 14 and 15).

if the materiality level is high, then should the items for sampling be high or low?

latest answer

Depends upon the assessment of ROMM. the final understanding is Audit risk should be low. If ROMM is high. the detection risk should be low. So more samples to be selected. Materiality lower. If ROMM is low, the detection risk will be high. So less samples can be selected. Materiality high

Consideration payable to the customer

Financial Reporting

answered on 03-Mar-24 18:55

The recognition of consideration payable to the customer is later of revenue recognized or amount payable to the customer. Whether this is the type of variable consideration? If so, then it should be accounted at earlier of the revenue recognized or amount payable because variable consideration should be accounted only if revenue reverse will not occur subsequently. Kindly explain on the above part whether consideration payable to the customer is a variable consideration or not?

latest answer

Variable consideration is received from customer. Variable consideration is different from consideration payable to customer.
