Events after the Reporting Period Financial Reporting

Question: Describe about the Events after the Reporting Period for Financial Reporting. Answer: The provisions as regards computation and discloser of deprecation are contained in the AASB 1021. In respect of the change in the rates and method of depreciation, the provisions of paragraph 6.3 this standard require that effect of such change must be given in the current year financial statements and the depreciation for the future years must be computed considering such changes (AASB 1021, 1997). Further, the standard also provides that the prior period financial statements should not be given any effect in respect of the changes in the rate and method of deprecation (AASB 1021, 1997). Applying these provisions to the current case of Rainyday Ltd, the depreciation for the financial year 2015-16 would change as has been worked out below: S.No. Description Amount ($) A Cost of manufacturing equipment 500,000.00 B Life 10 C Residual value 0 D Depreciation per year (A-C/B) 50,000.00 E Depreciation for 2013-14 and 2014-15 (D*2) 100,000.00 F Written down value on 01.07.2015 (A-E) 400,000.00 G Revised life 6 H Revised depreciation from 2015-16 and onwards (F/G) 66,666.67 Thus, it can be observed from the above that the depreciation for the financial year has changed from $50,000 to $66,666.67 as a result of change in the effective useful life of the equipment. The change in the depreciation is non-adjusting item for the previous financial years; therefore, the directors of Rainyday Ltd are advised not to make any adjustments in the accounts for this change for the previous financial years 2013-14 and 2014-15. 1(b) As per the provisions of the AASB 108, the adjustment for the errors and omissions of the previous periods is given in the current financial statements by restating the assets, liabilities, and the equity. Further, tax effect of such adjustment is accounted for in accordance with the provisions of AASB 112, Income Taxes (AASB 108, 2013). In the case of Rainyday Ltd, the repair expense of $25,000, which remained unaccounted in the year 2015, need to be adjusted in the books in the year 2016. The adjusting journal entries for Rainyday Ltd are given below: Journal for Prior Period Adjustments: Rainyday Ltd 2015-16 Date Description Debit ($) Credit ($) 5-Jul-16 Repair expense 25000 Cash 25000 30-Jun-16 Retained earnings 25000 Deferred tax 7500 Repair expense 25000 1(c) As per the provisions AASB 9, the measure fall in the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized in the financial statements (AASB 9, 2010). Further, the provisions of the AASB 110 entail that the events taking place after the closer of the financial year but before the finalization of the financial statements, should be adjusted (AASB 110, 2011). Therefore, Rainyday Ltd should adjust the loss of $350,000 ($800,000-$450,000) in the profit and loss account for the financial year 2015-16 by passing the following journal entry: Journal: Rainyday Ltd 2015-16 Date Description Debit ($) Credit ($) 30-June-16 Profit and loss account 350000 Equity investment account 350000 1(d) In the current situation, the since the debtor of the company has gone bankrupt before the finalization of the financial statements, the event is adjusting nature as per the AASB 110 (AASB 110, 2011). Therefore, the RainydayLtd should write off the remaining amount $450,000 as well in the financial year 2015-16 itself by passing the following journal entry: Journal: Rainyday Ltd 2015-16 Date Description Debit ($) Credit ($) 30-June-16 Profit and loss account 450000 Bad debts 450000 2.

As per the provisions of the AASB 136, the allocation of the impairment loss of a cash generating unit is made first to the goodwill and then to the other assets in the proportion of their carrying amounts. However, it should be kept in mind that the allocation of the impairment loss in such a manner does not result in excess of the amount that would have been calculated considering a particular asset singly (AASB 136, 2010). In accordance with the relevant provisions of AASB 136, the computation and allocation of the impairment loss of CGUs of Movies Ltd is presented below: Computation of impairment loss for cash generating units Cash Generating Units Cinema ($) DVD Sales ($) A.
