QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q.1: What are the qualitative characteristics of the Financial Statements which improve the
usefulness of the information furnished therein? [Nov 2020 (4 Marks)]

ANSWER:
The qualitative characteristics are attributes that improve the usefulness of information provided in
financial statements. Financial statements are required to show a true and fair view of the
performance, financial position and cash flows of an enterprise. The framework for Preparation and
Presentation of Financial Statements suggests that the financial statements should maintain the
following four qualitative characteristics to improve the usefulness of the information furnished
therein.
1. Understandability: The financial statements should present information in a manner as to be
readily understandable by the users with reasonable knowledge of business and economic
activities and accounting.
2. Relevance: The financial statements should contain relevant information only. Information,
which is likely to influence the economic decisions by the users, is said to be relevant. Such
information may help the users to evaluate past, present or future events or may help in
confirming or correcting past evaluations. The relevance of a piece of information should be
judged by its materiality. A piece of information is said to be material if its misstatement (i.e.,
omission or erroneous statement) can influence economic decisions of a user.
3. Reliability: To be useful, the information must be reliable; that is to say, they must be free from
material error and bias. The information provided are not likely to be reliable unless transactions
and events reported are faithfully represented. The reporting of transactions and events should
be neutral, i.e. free from bias and be reported on the principle of 'substance over form'. The
information in financial statements must be complete. Prudence should be exercised in reporting
uncertain outcome of transactions or events.
Comparability: Comparison of financial statements is one of the most frequently used and most
effective tools of financial analysis. The financial statements should permit both inter-firm and intra-
firm comparison. One essential requirement of comparability is disclosure of financial effect of change
in accounting policies.

Since 10% is lower than the average rate of dividend (12%), 10% dividend can be declared.
Condition II
Maximum amount that can be drawn from the accumulated profits and reserves should not
exceed 10% of paid up capital plus free reserves ie. ₹ 7,50,000 [10% of (50,00,000 +

Working Notes:
1. Sales ratio
Let the monthly sales for first 4 months (i.e. from 1.4.2019 to 31.7.2019) be = x
Then, sales for 4 months = 4x
Monthly sales for next 8 months (1st August, 2019 to 31st March, 2020)
= x + 25% of x= 1.25x Then, sales for next 8 months = 1.25x X 8 = 10x
Total sales for the year = 4x + 10x = 14x. Hence Sales Ratio = 4x : 10x i.e. 2:5
2. Time ratio
1st April, 2019 to 31st July, 2019 : 1st August, 2019 to 31st March, 2020
= 4 months: 8 months = 1:2. Thus, time ratio is 1:2.

You are required to prepare a statement showing the amount of pre and post

[RTP May 2021]

ANSWER:
(a) Time ratio:
Pre-incorporation period (1.4.2020 to 1.7.2020) = 3 months
Post incorporation period (1.7.2020 to 31.3.2021) = 9 months
Time ratio = 3 : 9 or 1 : 3
Sales ratio:
Average monthly sale before incorporation was twice the average sale per month of the post
incorporation period. If weightage for each post -incorporation month is x, then
Weighted sales ratio = 3 × 2x : 9 × 1x = 6x : 9x or 2 : 3

To Equity share capital A/c 25,000
(For rights share issued at par value in the ratio of 1:8
equity shares due as per Board’s Resolution

Working Note:
Number of Rights shares to be issued- 20,000/8x1= 2,500 shares
(b) Ex-right value of the shares
= (Cum-right value of the existing shares + Rights shares x Issue Price) / (Existing No. of shares +
No. of right shares) = (₹ 200 X 5 Shares + ₹ 125 X 1 Share)/(5+1) Shares
= ₹ 1,125 / 6 shares = ₹ 187.50 per share.
Value of right = Cum-right value of the share – Ex-right value of the share

* Interest not considered.


Working Notes:
1. Debenture Redemption Reserve Investment A/c
The company would be required to invest an amount equivalent to 15% of the value of the
debentures in specified investments which would be equivalent to:
= Total No of debentures X Face value per debenture X 15%
= 8,000 X 100 X 15% = ₹1,20,000/-
The company has already invested in specified investments i.e. 7% Govt bonds for an amount
of ₹1,00,000 as per the information given in the question. The balance amount of ₹20,000 (i.e.
₹ 1,20,000 less ₹ 1,00,000) would be invested by the company on 1 April 2019.
2. Redemption of Debenture Redemption Reserve Investments on 31.3.2020
Since the company purchased 1,000 own debentures on 31 March 2020, the company would
also realize the investments of 15% corresponding to these debentures for which computation is
as follows:
= No. of own debentures to be bought X Face value per debenture X 15%
= 1,000 X 100 X 15% = ₹ 15,000/-

47
Video Classes by Vinit Mishra 9354719404 www.cadreamers.com
The remaining debentures i.e. total debentures less own debentures would be redeemed on 31
March 2020 and hence the company would also realize the balance investments of 15%
corresponding to these debentures for which computation is as follows:
= (Total no of debentures – No. of own debentures) X Face value per debenture X 15% =
(8,000 - 1,000) X 100 X 15% = ₹1,05,000/-
3. Debenture Redemption Reserve
The company would be required to transfer an amount equivalent to 10% of the value of the
debentures in Debentures Redemption Reserve Account. The value of debentures is 8,00,000
thus 10% of it i.e. 80,000 should be there in DRR a/c. The available balance in DRR a/c is only
50,000 therefore 30,000 (80,000 – 50,000) additional amount will be transferred from General
Reserve or Profit and loss A/c to DRR A/c.

Q.2: The following balances appeared in the books of Omega Ltd. as on 1-4-2020:
(i) 10 % Debentures ₹ 75,00,000
(ii) Balance of DRR ₹ 2,50,000
(iii) DRR Investment ₹ 11,25,000 represented by 10% ₹ 11,250 Secured Bonds of the

Annual contribution to the DRR was made as per the requirement. On 31-3-2021, balance at
bank was ₹ 80,00,000 before receipt of interest. Interest on Debentures had already been
paid. The investments were realized at par for redemption of debentures at a premium of
10% on the above date.
Omega Ltd. is an unlisted company (other than AIFI, Banking Company, NBFC and HFC).

INVESTMENT ACCOUNTS (AS-13)

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q.1: A Limited invested in the shares of XYZ Ltd. on 1st December, 2019 at a cost of ₹ 50,000.
Out of these shares, ₹ 25,000 shares were purchased with an intention to hold for 6 months
and ₹ 25,000 shares were purchased with an intention to hold as long-term Investment.
A Limited also earlier purchased Gold of ₹ 1,00,000 and Silver of ₹ 30,00,000 on 1st April,
2019. Market value as on 31st March, 2020 of above investments are as follows:
Shares ₹ 47,500 (Decline in the value of shares is temporary.)
Gold ₹ 1,80,000
Silver ₹ 30,55,000
How above investments will be shown in the books of accounts of M/s A Limited for the year
ended 31st March, 2020 as per the provisions of AS 13 (Revised)? [Nov 2020 (5 Marks)]

ANSWER:
As per AS 13 (Revised) ‘Accounting for Investments, for investment in shares - if the investment is
purchased with an intention to hold for short-term period (less than one year), then it will be classified
as current investment and to be carried at lower of cost and fair value.
In the given case ₹ 25,000 shares held as current investment will be carried in the books at ₹ 23,750
(₹ 47,500/2).
If equity shares are acquired with an intention to hold for long term period (more than one year),
then should be considered as long-term investment to be shown at cost in the Balance Sheet of the
company. However, provision for diminution should be made to recognize a decline, if other than
temporary, in the value of the investments. Hence, ₹ 25,000 shares held as long-term investment will
be carried in the books at ₹ 25,000.
Gold and silver are generally purchased with an intention to hold them for long term period (more
than one year) until and unless given otherwise.
Hence, the investment in Gold and Silver (purchased on 1st March, 2019) should continue to be shown
at cost (since there is no ‘other than temporary’ diminution) as on 31st March, 2020. Thus Gold at ₹
1,00,000 and Silver at ₹ 30,00,000 respectively will be shown in the books.

Q.2: On 1st April, 2019 Mr. H had 30,000 equity shares of ABC Ltd. at book value of ₹ 18 per
share (Nominal value 10 per share). On 10th June, 2019, H purchased another 10,000 equity
shares of the ABC ltd. at ₹ 16 per share through a broker who charged 1.5% brokerage.
The directors of ABC Ltd. announced a bonus and a right issue. The terms of the issues were
as follows:
(i) Bonus shares were declared at the rate of one equity share for every four shares held

Q.4: Paridhi Electronics Ltd. invested in the shares of Dhansukh Ltd. on 1st May 2020 at a
cost of ₹ 10,00,000. Three fourth of these investments were current investments and the
remaining investments were intended to be held for more than a year. The published
accounts of Dhansukh Ltd. received in January, 2021 reveals that the company has incurred
cash losses with decline in market share and investment of Paridhi Electronics Ltd. may not
fetch more than 7,50,000. The reduction in value is apparent to be non-temporary.
You are required to explain how you will deal with the above in the financial statements of
the Paridhi Electronics Ltd. as on 31.3.21 with reference to AS 13? [RTP May 2021]

ANSWER:
As per AS 13, “Accounting for Investments”, carrying amount for current investments is the lower of
cost and fair value. But long term investments should be carried in the financial statements at cost.
However, provision for diminution shall be made to recognize a decline, other than temporary, in
the value of the investments, such reduction being determined and made for each investment
individually. The standard also states that indicators of the value of an investment are obtained by
reference to its market value, the investee's assets and results and the expected cash flows from the
investment.
Paridhi Ltd. made three fourth of ₹ 10,00,000 ie. ₹7,50,000 as current investment and remaining ₹
2,50,000 as long term. The facts of the case given in the question clearly suggest that the provision
for diminution should be made to reduce the carrying amount of shares for both categories of shares
to bring them to market value. Hence the carrying value of investments will be shown at amount of
₹ 7,50,000 in the financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2021 and charge the difference
of loss of ₹ 2,50,000 to profit and loss account.

Q.5: Kunal Securities Ltd. wants to reclassify its investments in accordance with AS-13
(Revised). State the values, at which the investments have to be reclassified in the following
cases:
(i) Long term investment in Company A, costing ₹ 10.5 lakhs is to be re-classified as
current investment. The company had reduced the value of these investments to ₹ 9
lakhs to recognize a permanent decline in value. The fair value on the date of
reclassification is ₹ 9.3 lakhs.

58
Video Classes by Vinit Mishra 9354719404 www.cadreamers.com
(ii) Long term investment in Company B, costing ₹ 14 lakhs is to be re-classified as current
investment The fair value on the date of reclassification is ₹ 16 lakhs and book value is
₹ 14 lakhs.
(iii) Current investment in Company C, costing ₹12 lakhs is to be re-classified as long term
investment as the company wants to retain them. The market value on the date of
reclassification is ₹ 13.5 lakhs.
(iv) Current investment in Company D, costing ₹ 18 lakhs is to be re-classified as long term
investment. The market value on the date of reclassification is ₹ 16.5 lakhs.
[Jan 21 (5 Marks)]

ANSWER:
As per AS 13 (Revised) ‘Accounting for Investments’, where long-term investments are reclassified as
current investments, transfers are made at the lower of cost and carrying amount at the date of
transfer. And where investments are reclassified from current to long term, transfers are made at lower
of cost and fair value on the date of transfer.
Accordingly, the re-classification will be done on the following basis:
(i) In this case, carrying amount of investment on the date of transfer is less than the cost; hence this
re-classified current investment should be carried at ₹ 9 lakhs in the books.
(ii) The carrying / book value of the long-term investment is same as cost i.e., ₹ 14 lakhs. Hence this
long-term investment will be reclassified as current investment at book value of ₹ 14 lakhs only.
(iii) In this case, reclassification of current investment into long-term investments will be made at ₹
12 lakhs as cost are less than its market value of ₹ 13.5 lakhs.
(iv) Market value of the investment is ₹ 16.5 lakhs, which is lower than its cost i.e., ₹ 18 lakhs.
Therefore, the transfer to long term investments should be done in the books at the market value
i.e., ₹ 16.5 lakhs.

Working Notes:
1. Calculation of goods with customers
Since no approval for sale has been received for the goods of Rs. 1,32,000 (i.e. 2/3 of Rs.
1,98,000) hence, these should be valued at cost i.e. Rs. 1,32,000 – 25% of Rs. 1,32,000 = Rs.
99,000.
2. Calculation of actual sales
Total sales – Goods not dispatched- Sale of goods on approval (2/3rd)=
Sales (Rs. 27,75,000 –75,000– Rs.1,32,000) = Rs. 25,68,000

Q.5: M/s. Kodam Enterprises purchased a generator on hire purchase from M/s. Sanctum
Ltd. on 1st April, 2019. The hire purchase price was Rs.48,000. Down payment was
Rs.12,000 and the balance is payable in 3 annual instalments of Rs.12,000 each payable at
the end of each financial year. Interest is payable @ 8% p.a. and is included in the annual
payment of Rs.12,000.
Depreciation at 10% p.a. is to be written off using the straight line method.
You are required to calculate the cash price of the generator and the interest paid on each
instalment. [MTP March 21 (4 Marks)]

ANSWER:
Calculation of Interest and Cash Price
Ratio of interest and amount due = 8 / (100 + rate of interest) i.e. 8/108
To ascertain cash price, interest will be calculated from last instalment to first instalment as follows:

No. of Amount due at the Interest Cumulative


instalments time of instalment Cash price
[1] [2] [3] (2-3) = [4]
3rd 12,000 8/108 of Rs.12,000 = Rs. 889 11,111
2nd 23,111 [W.N.1] 8/108 of Rs. 23,111 = Rs. 1,712 21,399

Working Notes:
1. Rs. 11,111 + 2nd instalment of Rs. 12,000 = Rs. 23,111
2. Rs. 21,399 + 1st instalment of Rs. 12,000 = Rs. 33,399

Disclosure of Accounting Policies

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q.1: The draft results of Surya Ltd. for the year ended 31st March, 2020, prepared on the
hitherto followed accounting policies and presented for perusal of the board of directors
showed a deficit of ₹ 10 crores. The board in consultation with the managing director,
decided to value year-end inventory at works cost (₹ 50 crores) instead of the hitherto
method of valuation of inventory at prime cost (₹ 30 crores). As chief accountant of the
company, you are asked by the managing director to draft the notes on accounts for
inclusion in the annual report for 2019-2020. [RTP May 2021]

ANSWER:
As per AS 1, any change in the accounting policies which has a material effect in the current period or
which is reasonably expected to have a material effect in later periods should be disclosed. In the case
of a change in accounting policies which has a material effect in the current period, the amount by
which any item in the financial statements is affected by such change should also be disclosed to the
extent ascertainable. Where such amount is not ascertainable, wholly or in part, the fact should be
indicated. Accordingly, the notes on accounts should properly disclose the change and its effect.
Notes on Accounts:
“During the year inventory has been valued at factory cost, against the practice of valuing it at prime
cost as was the practice till last year. This has been done to take cognizance of the more capital
intensive method of production on account of heavy capital expenditure during the year. As a result
of this change, the year-end inventory has been valued at ₹ 50 crores and the profit for the year is
increased by ₹ 20 crores.”

Q.2: HIL Ltd. was making provision for non-moving stocks based on no issues having
occurred for the last 12 months upto 31.03.2019. The company now wants to change it and
make provision based on technical evaluation during the year ending 31.03.2020. Total
value of stock on 31.3.20 is Rs. 120 lakhs. Provision required based on technical evaluation
amounts Rs. 3.00 lakhs. However, provision required based on 12 months (no issues) is Rs.
4.00 lakhs. You are required to discuss the following points in the light of Accounting
Standard (AS)-1:
(i) Does this amount to change in accounting policy?
(ii) Can the company change the method of accounting?
(iii) Explain how it will be disclosed in the annual accounts of HIL Ltd. for the year 2019-20.
[MTP March 21 (5 Marks)]

ANSWER:

113
Video Classes by Vinit Mishra 9354719404 www.cadreamers.com
The decision of making provision for non-moving inventories on the basis of technical evaluation does
not amount to change in accounting policy. Accounting policy of a company may require that
provision for non-moving inventories should be made but the basis for making provision will not
constitute accounting policy. The method of estimating the amount of provision may be changed in
case a more prudent estimate can be made.
In the given case, considering the total value of inventory, the change in the amount of required
provision of non-moving inventory from Rs. 4 lakhs to Rs. 3 lakhs is also not material. The disclosure
can be made for such change in the following lines by way of notes to the accounts in the annual
accounts of HIL Ltd. for the year 2019-20 in the following manner:
“The company has provided for non-moving inventories on the basis of technical evaluation unlike
preceding years. Had the same method been followed as in the previous year, the profit for the year
and the value of net assets at the end of the year would have been lower by Rs. 1 lakh.”

Q.3: State whether the following statements are 'True' or 'False' in line with the provisions
of AS 1. Also give reason for your answer.
(i) Certain fundamental accounting assumptions underline the preparation and
presentation of financial statements. They are usually specifically stated because their
acceptance and use are not assumed.
(ii) If fundamental accounting assumptions are not followed in presentation and
preparation of financial statements, a specific disclosure is not required.
(iii) All significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation and presentation of
financial statements should form part of the financial statements.
(iv) Any change in an accounting policy, which has a material effect should be disclosed.
Where the amount by which any item in the financial statements is affected by such
change is not ascertainable, wholly or in part, the fact need not to be indicated.
(v) There is no single list of accounting policies which are applicable to all circumstances.
[MTP April 21 (5 Marks)]

ANSWER:
(i) False; As per AS 1 “Disclosure of Accounting Policies”, certain fundamental accounting
assumptions underlie the preparation and presentation of financial statements. They are usually
not specifically stated because their acceptance and use are assumed. Disclosure is necessary if
they are not followed.
(ii) False; As per AS 1, if the fundamental accounting assumptions, viz. Going Concern, Consistency
and Accrual are followed in financial statements, specific disclosure is not required. If a
fundamental accounting assumption is not followed, the fact should be disclosed.
(iii) True; To ensure proper understanding of financial statements, it is necessary that all significant
accounting policies adopted in the preparation and presentation of financial statements should
be disclosed. The disclosure of the significant accounting policies as such should form part of the
financial statements and they should be disclosed at one place.

(iv) False; Any change in the accounting policies which has a material effect in the current period or
which is reasonably expected to have a material effect in later periods should be disclosed. Where
such amount is not ascertainable, wholly or in part, the fact should be indicated.
(v) True; As per AS 1, there is no single list of accounting policies which are applicable to all
circumstances. The differing circumstances in which enterprises operate in a situation of diverse
and complex economic activity make alternative accounting principles and methods of applying
those principles acceptable.

“Valuation of Inventories”

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q.1: The inventory of Rich Ltd. as on 31st March, 2020 comprises of Product – A: 200 units
and Product – B: 800 units.
Details of cost for these products are:
Product – A: Material cost, wages cost and overhead cost of each unit are ₹ 40, ₹ 30 and ₹
20 respectively, Each unit is sold at ₹ 110, selling expenses amounts to 10% of selling costs.
Product – B: Material cost and wages cost of each unit are ₹ 45 and ₹ 35 respectively and
normal selling rate is ₹ 150 each, however due to defect in the manufacturing process 800
units of Product-B were expected to be sold at ₹ 70.
You are requested to value closing inventory according to AS 2 after considering the above.
[RTP May 2021]

ANSWER:
According to AS 2 ‘Valuation of Inventories’, inventories should be valued at the lower of cost and
net realizable value.
Product – A

Material cost ₹ 40 x 200 = 8,000


Wages cost ₹ 30 x 200 = 6,000
Overhead ₹ 20 x 200 = 4,000
Total cost ₹ 18,000
Realizable value [200 x (110-11)] ₹ 19,800
Hence inventory value of Product -A ₹ 18,000

Product – B

Material cost ₹ 45 x 800 = 36,000


Wages cost ₹ 35 x 800 = 28,000
Total cost ₹ 64,000
Realizable value (800 x 70) ₹ 56,000
Hence inventory value of Product-B ₹ 56,000
Total Value of closing inventory i.e. Product A + Product B (18,000+ 56,000) ₹ 74,000

Q.2: Mr. Jatin gives the following information relating to the items forming part of the
inventory as on 31.03.2019. His enterprise produces product P using Raw Material X.
(ii) 900 units of Raw Material X (purchases @ ₹ 100 per unit). Replacement cost of Raw
Material X as on 3103.2019 is ₹ 80 per unit
(i) 400 units of partly finished goods in the process of producing P. Cost incurred till date
is ₹ 245 per unit. These units can be finished next year by incurring additional cost of ₹
50 per unit.
(ii) 800 units of Finished goods P and total cost incurred is ₹ 295 per unit.
Expected selling price of product P is ₹280 per unit, subject to a payment of 5% brokerage
on selling price.
Determine how each item of inventory will be valued as on 31.03.2019.
Also calculate the value of total Inventory as on 31.03.2019. [Jan 2021 (5 Marks)]

ANSWER:
As per AS 2 (Revised) “Valuation of Inventories”, materials and other supplies held for use in the
production of inventories are not written down below cost if the finished products in which they will
be incorporated are expected to be sold at cost or above cost. However, when there has been a
decline in the price of materials and it is estimated that the cost of the finished products will exceed
net realizable value, the materials are written down to net realizable value. In such circumstances, the
replacement cost of the materials may be the best available measure of their net realizable value. In
the given case, selling price of product P is ₹ 266 and total cost per unit for production is ₹ 295.
Hence the valuation will be done as under:
(i) 900 units of raw material X will be written down to replacement cost as market value of finished
product is less than its cost, hence valued at ₹ 80 per unit.
(ii) 400 units of partly finished goods will be valued at 216 per unit i.e., lower of cost (₹ 245) or
Net realizable value ₹ 216 (Estimated selling price ₹ 266 per unit less additional cost of ₹ 50).
(iii) 800 units of finished product P will be valued at NRV of ₹ 266 per unit since it is lower than

Video Classes by Vinit Mishra 9354719404 www.cadreamers.com
Standard, how will you value the inventories in this case? What will be treatment for normal
and abnormal waste? [MTP March 21 (5 Marks)]

ANSWER:
As per para 13 of AS 2 (Revised), abnormal amounts of wasted materials, labour and other production
costs are excluded from cost of inventories and such costs are recognized as expenses in the period in
which they are incurred.
In this case, normal waste is 250 MT and abnormal waste is 50 MT. The cost of 250 MT will be
included in determining the cost of inventories (finished goods) at the year end. The cost of abnormal
waste (50 MT x 1,052.6315 = Rs. 52,632) will be charged to the profit and loss statement.
Cost per MT (Normal Quantity of 4,750 MT) = 50,00,000 / 4,750 = Rs. 1,052.6315
Total value of inventory = 4,700 MT x Rs. 1,052.6315 = Rs. 49,47,368.

Q.4:
(i) “In determining the cost of inventories, it is appropriate to exclude certain costs and
recognize them as expenses in the period in which they are incurred”. Provide
examples of such costs as per AS 2 ‘Valuation of Inventories’.
(ii) X Limited purchased goods at the cost of Rs. 40 lakhs in October, 2020. Till March,
2021, 75% of the stocks were sold. The company wants to disclose closing stock at Rs.
10 lakhs. The expected sale value is Rs. 11 lakhs and a commission at 10% on sale is
payable to the agent. Advise, what is the correct value of closing stock to be disclosed
as at 31.3.2021. [MTP April 21 (5 Marks)]

ANSWER:
(i) As per AS 2 ‘Valuation of Inventories’, certain costs are excluded from the cost of the inventories
and are recognized as expenses in the period in which incurred. Examples of such costs are:
(a) Abnormal amount of wasted materials, labour, or other production costs;
(b) Storage costs, unless those costs are necessary in the production process prior to a further
production stage;
(c) Administrative overheads that do not contribute to bringing the inventories to their present
location and condition; and
(d) Selling and distribution costs.
(ii) As per AS 2 “Valuation of Inventories”, the inventories are to be valued at lower of cost or net
realizable value. In this case, the cost of inventory is Rs. 10 lakhs. The net realizable value is
11,00,000 × 90% = Rs. 9,90,000. So, the stock should be valued at Rs. 9,90,000.

“Property, Plant & Equipment”

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q.1: A Ltd. had following assets. Calculate depreciation for the year ended 31st March, 2020
for each asset as per AS 10 (Revised):
(i) Machinery purchased for ₹ 10 lakhs on 1st April, 2015 and residual value after useful life
of 5 years, based on 2015 prices is ₹ 10 lakhs.
(ii) Land for ₹ 50 lakhs.
(iii) A Machinery is constructed for ₹ 5,00,000 for its own use (useful life is 10 years).
Construction is completed on 1st April, 2019, but the company does not begin using the
machine until 31st March, 2020.
(iv) Machinery purchased on 1st April.2017 for ₹ 50,000 with useful life of 5 years and
residual value is NIL. On 1st April, 2019, management decided to use this asset for
further 2 years only.
[Nov 2020 (5 Marks)]

ANSWER:
Computation of amount of depreciation as per AS 10


(i) Machinery purchased on 1/4/15 for ₹ 10 lakhs Nil
(having residual value of ₹ 10 lakhs)
Reason: The company considers that the residual value, based on prices
prevailing at the balance sheet date, will equal the cost. Therefore, there is no
depreciable amount and depreciation is correctly zero.
(ii) Land (50 lakhs) (considered freehold) Nil
Reason: Land has an unlimited useful life and therefore, it is not depreciated.
(iii) Machinery constructed for own use (₹ 5,00,000/10) 50,000
Reason: The entity should begin charging depreciation from the date the machine
is ready for use i.e. 1st April, 2019. The fact that the machine was not used for a
period after it was ready to be used is not relevant in considering when to begin
charging depreciation.
(iv) Machinery having revised useful life 15,000
Reason: The entity has charged depreciation using the straight-line method at ₹
10,000 per annum i.e (50,000/5 years). On 1st April, 2019 the asset's net book
value is [50,000 – (10,000 x 2)] i.e. ₹ 30,000. The remaining useful life is 2 years
as per revised estimate. The company should amend the annual provision for

119
Video Classes by Vinit Mishra 9354719404 www.cadreamers.com
depreciation to charge the unamortized cost over the revised remaining life of 2
years. Consequently, it should charge depreciation for the next 2 years at ₹
15,000 per annum i.e. (30,000 / 2 years).

Q.2: You are required to give the correct accounting treatment for the following in line with
provisions of AS 10:
(a) Trozen Ltd. operates a major chain of supermarkets all over India. It acquires a new
store in Pune which requires significant renovation expenditure. It is expected that the
renovations will be done in 2 months during which the store will be closed. The budget
for this period, including expenditure related to construction and remodelling costs (₹
18 lakhs), salaries of staff (₹ 2 lakhs) who will be preparing the store before its opening
and related utilities costs (₹ 1.5 lakhs), is prepared. The cost of salaries of the staff and
utilities are operating expenditures that would be incurred even after the opening of
the supermarket. What will the treatment of all these expenditures in the books of
accounts?
(b) ABC Ltd is setting up a new refinery outside the city limits. In order to facilitate the
construction of the refinery and its operations, ABC Ltd. is required to incur
expenditure on the construction/development of railway siding, road and bridge.
Though ABC Ltd. incurs the expenditure on the construction/development, it will not
have ownership rights on these items and they are also available for use to other
entities and public at large. Can ABC Ltd. capitalize expenditure incurred on these
items as property, plant and equipment (PPE)? [RTP May 2021]

ANSWER:
(b) Trozen Ltd. should capitalize the costs of construction and remodelling the supermarket, because
they are necessary to bring the store to the condition necessary for it to be capable of operating
in the manner intended. The supermarket cannot be opened without incurring the remodelling
expenditure. Therefore, this construction and remodelling expenditure of ₹ 18 lakh should be
considered as part of the cost of the asset. However, the cost of salaries of the staff ₹ 2 lakh and
utilities cost ₹ 1.5 lakh are operating expenditures that would be incurred even after the opening
of the supermarket. Therefore, these costs are not necessary to bring the store to the condition
necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the management and
should be expensed.
(c) AS 10 states that the cost of an item of property, plant and equipment shall be recognized as an
asset if, and only if:
(a) It is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the entity;
and
(b) The cost of the item can be measured reliably.
Further, the standard provides that the standard does not prescribe the unit of measure for
recognition, i.e., what constitutes an item of property, plant and equipment. Thus, judgement is
required in applying the recognition criteria to an entity’s specific circumstances. The cost of an
item of property, plant and equipment comprise any costs directly attributable to bringing the

120
Video Classes by Vinit Mishra 9354719404 www.cadreamers.com
asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner
intended by management.
In the given case, railway siding, road and bridge are required to facilitate the construction of
the refinery and for its operations. Expenditure on these items is required to be incurred in order
to get future economic benefits from the project as a whole which can be considered as the unit
of measure for the purpose of capitalization of the said expenditure even though the company
cannot restrict the access of others for using the assets individually. It is apparent that the aforesaid
expenditure is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary
for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.
In view of this, even though ABC Ltd. may not be able to recognize expenditure incurred on
these assets as an individual item of property, plant and equipment in many cases (where it
cannot restrict others from using the asset), expenditure incurred may be capitalized as a part of
overall cost of the project. From this, it can be concluded that, in the given case the expenditure
incurred on these assets, i.e., railway siding, road and bridge, should be considered as the cost of
constructing the refinery and accordingly, expenditure incurred on these items should be
allocated and capitalized as part of the items of property, plant and equipment of the refinery.

Q.3: Explain how financial capital is maintained at historical cost?


Kishore started a business on 1st April, 2019 with ₹ 15,00,000 represented by 75,000 units
of ₹20 each. During the financial year ending on 31st March, 2020, he sold the entire stock
for ₹ 30 each. In order to maintain the capital intact, calculate the maximum amount, which
can be withdrawn by Kishore in the year 2019-20 if Financial Capital is maintained at
historical cost. [Jan 21 (4 Marks)]

ANSWER:
Financial capital maintenance at historical cost: Under this convention, opening and closing assets are
stated at respective historical costs to ascertain opening and closing equity. If retained profit is greater
than or equals to zero, the capital is said to be maintained at historical costs. This means the business
will have enough funds to replace its assets at historical costs. This is quite right as long as prices do
not rise.
Maximum amount withdrawn by Kishore in year 2019-20 if Financial capital is maintained at historical
cost

Particulars Financial Capital Maintenance at Historical


Cost (₹)
Closing equity (₹ 30 x 75,000 units) 22,50,000 represented by cash
Opening equity 75,000 units x ₹ 20 = 15,00,000
Permissible drawings to keep Capital intact 7,50,000 (22,50,000 – 15,00,000)

Thus ₹ 7,50,000 is the maximum amount that can be withdrawn by Kishore in year 2019-20 if
Financial capital is maintained at historical cost.

Q.4: Neon Enterprise operates a major chain of restaurants located in different cities. The
company has acquired a new restaurant located at Chandigarh. The new-restaurant
requires significant renovation expenditure. Management expects that the renovations will
last for 3 months during which the restaurant will be closed.
Management has prepared the following budget for this period –
Salaries of the staff engaged in preparation of restaurant before its opening Rs. 7,50,000
Construction and remodelling cost of restaurant Rs. 30,00,000
Explain the treatment of these expenditures as per the provisions of AS 10 "Property, Plant
and Equipment". [MTP March 21 (5 Marks)]

ANSWER:
As per provisions of AS 10, any cost directly attributable to bring the assets to the location and
conditions necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner indicated by the management are
called directly attributable costs and would be included in the costs of an item of PPE.
Management of Neon Enterprise should capitalize the costs of construction and remodelling the
restaurant, because they are necessary to bring the restaurant to the condition necessary for it to be
capable of operating in the manner intended by management. The restaurant cannot be opened
without incurring the construction and remodelling expenditure amounting Rs. 30,00,000 and thus
the expenditure should be considered part of the asset.
However, the cost of salaries of staff engaged in preparation of restaurant Rs. 7,50,000 before its
opening are in the nature of operating expenditure that would be incurred if the restaurant was open
and these costs are not necessary to bring the restaurant to the conditions necessary for it to be capable
of operating in the manner intended by management. Hence, Rs. 7,50,000 should be expensed.

Q.5: Explain in brief, the alternative measurement bases, for determining the value at which
an element can be recognized in the Balance Sheet or Statement of Profit and Loss.
[MTP March 21 (4 Marks)]

ANSWER:
The Framework for Recognition and Presentation of Financial statements recognizes four alternative
measurement bases for the purpose of determining the value at which an element can be recognized
in the balance sheet or statement of profit and loss. These bases are: (i) Historical Cost; (ii) Current
cost (iii) Realizable (Settlement) Value and (iv) Present Value.
A brief explanation of each measurement basis is as follows:
1. Historical Cost: Historical cost means acquisition price. According to this, assets are recorded at
an amount of cash or cash equivalent paid or the fair value of the asset at the time of acquisition.
Liabilities are generally recorded at the amount of proceeds received in exchange for the
obligation.
2. Current Cost: Current cost gives an alternative measurement basis. Assets are carried out at the
amount of cash or cash equivalent that would have to be paid if the same or an equivalent asset

122
Video Classes by Vinit Mishra 9354719404 www.cadreamers.com
was acquired currently. Liabilities are carried at the undiscounted amount of cash or cash
equivalents that would be required to settle the obligation currently.
3. Realisable (Settlement) Value: As per realizable value, assets are carried at the amount of cash
or cash equivalents that could currently be obtained by selling the assets in an orderly disposal.
Liabilities are carried at their settlement values; i.e. the undiscounted amount of cash or cash
equivalents paid to satisfy the liabilities in the normal course of business.
4. Present Value: Under present value convention, assets are carried at present value of future net
cash flows generated by the concerned assets in the normal course of business. Liabilities under
this convention are carried at present value of future net cash flows that are expected to be
required to settle the liability in the normal course of business.

Q.6: Mohan Ltd. has an existing freehold factory property, which it intends to knock down
and redevelop. During the redevelopment period the company will move its production
facilities to another (temporary) site.
The details of the incremental costs which will be incurred are: Setup costs of Rs. 5,00,000
to install machinery in the new location; Rent of Rs. 15,00,000; Removal costs of Rs. 3,00,000
to transport the machinery from the old location to the temporary location.
Mohan Ltd. wants to seek your guidance as whether these costs can be capitalized into the
cost of the new building. You are required to advise in line with AS 10 “Property, Plant and
Equipment”. [MTP April 21 (5 Marks)]

ANSWER:
Constructing or acquiring a new asset may result in incremental costs that would have been avoided
if the asset had not been constructed or acquired. These costs are not be included in the cost of the
asset if they are not directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary
for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. The costs to be incurred
by the company are in the nature of costs of reducing or reorganizing the operations of the accompany.
These costs do not meet that requirement of AS 10 “Property, Plant and Equipment” and cannot,
therefore, be capitalized.

ANSWER:
As per AS 11 “The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates”, exchange differences arising on the
settlement of monetary items or on reporting an enterprise’s monetary items at rates different from
those at which they were initially recorded during the period, or reported in previous financial
statements, should be recognized as income or as expenses in the period in which they arise.
However, at the option of an entity, exchange differences arising on reporting of longterm foreign
currency monetary items at rates different from those at which they were initially recorded during the
period, or reported in previous financial statements, in so far as they relate to the acquisition of a non-
depreciable capital asset can be accumulated in a “Foreign Currency Monetary Item Translation
Difference Account” in the enterprise’s financial statements and amortized over the balance period of
such long-term asset/ liability, by recognition as income or expense in each of such periods.

Q.3: Shan Builders Limited has borrowed a sum of US $ 10,00,000 at the beginning of
Financial Year 2019-20 for its residential project at 4 %. The interest is payable at the end of
the Financial Year. At the time of availment, exchange rate was ₹ 56 per US $ and the rate
as on 31st March, 2020 ₹ 62 per US $. If Shan Builders Limited had borrowed the loan in
India in Indian Rupee equivalent, the pricing of loan would have been 10.50%. You are
required to compute Borrowing Cost and exchange difference for the year ending 31st
March, 2020 as per applicable Accounting Standards. [RTP May 21]

ANSWER:
(i) Interest for the period 2019-20
= US $ 10 lakhs x 4% × ₹ 62 per US $ = ₹ 24.80 lakhs
(ii) Increase in the liability towards the principal amount
= US $ 10 lakhs × ₹ (62 - 56) = ₹ 60 lakhs
(iii) Interest that would have resulted if the loan was taken in Indian currency
= US $ 10 lakhs × ₹ 56 x 10.5% = ₹ 58.80 lakhs
(iv) Difference between interest on local currency borrowing and foreign currency borrowing = ₹
58.80 lakhs - ₹ 24.80 lakhs = ₹ 34 lakhs.
Therefore, out of ₹ 60 lakhs increase in the liability towards principal amount, only ₹ 34 lakhs will be
considered as the borrowing cost. Thus, total borrowing cost would be ₹ 58.80 lakhs being the
aggregate of interest of ₹ 24.80 lakhs on foreign currency borrowings plus the exchange difference to
the extent of difference between interest on local currency borrowing and interest on foreign currency
borrowing of ₹ 34 lakhs. Hence, ₹ 58.80 lakhs would be considered as the borrowing cost to be
accounted for as per AS 16 “Borrowing Costs” and the remaining ₹ 26 lakhs (60 - 34) would be
considered as the exchange difference to be accounted for as per AS 11 “The Effects of Changes in
Foreign Exchange Rates”.

rate as on 31st March, 2020 was Rs. 62 per US $. If Omega Limited had borrowed the loan
in India in Indian Rupee equivalent, the pricing of loan would have been 10.50%.

You are required to compute Borrowing Cost and exchange difference for the year ending

ANSWER:
(i) Interest for the period 2019-20

126
Video Classes by Vinit Mishra 9354719404 www.cadreamers.com
= US $ 10 lakhs x 4% × ₹ 62 per US $ = ₹ 24.80 lakhs
(ii) Increase in the liability towards the principal amount
= US $ 10 lakhs × ₹ (62 - 56) = ₹ 60 lakhs
(iii) Interest that would have resulted if the loan was taken in Indian currency
= US $ 10 lakhs × ₹ 56 x 10.5% = ₹ 58.80 lakhs
(iv) Difference between interest on local currency borrowing and foreign currency borrowing = ₹
58.80 lakhs - ₹ 24.80 lakhs = ₹ 34 lakhs.
Therefore, out of ₹ 60 lakhs increase in the liability towards principal amount, only ₹ 34 lakhs will be
considered as the borrowing cost. Thus, total borrowing cost would be ₹ 58.80 lakhs being the
aggregate of interest of ₹ 24.80 lakhs on foreign currency borrowings plus the exchange difference to
the extent of difference between interest on local currency borrowing and interest on foreign currency
borrowing of ₹ 34 lakhs.
Hence, ₹ 58.80 lakhs would be considered as the borrowing cost to be accounted for as per AS 16
and the remaining ₹ 26 lakhs (60 - 34) would be considered as the exchange difference to be
accounted for as per AS 11.

Darshan Ltd. follows straight line method for charging depreciation. [Jan 21 (5 Marks)]

ANSWER:
As per 12 “Accounting for government grants”, grants related to depreciable assets, if treated as
deferred income are recognized in the profit and loss statement on a systematic and rational basis over
the useful life of the asset.
Amount of depreciation and grant to be recognized in the profit and loss account each year
Depreciation per year:

₹ in lakhs
Cost of the Asset 130
Less: Salvage value (60)
70
Depreciation per year (70 lakhs/4) 17.50

₹ 17.50 Lakhs depreciation will be recognized for the year ending 31st March, 2017, 31st March, 2018,
31st March, 2019 and 31st March, 2020.
Amount of grant recognized in Profit and Loss account each year:
40 lakhs /4 years = ₹ 10 Lakhs for the year ending 31st March, 2017, 31st March, 2018, 31st March,

Q.2:
(i) Hygiene Ltd. had received a grant of ₹ 50 lakh in 2012 from a State Government
towards installation of pollution control machinery on fulfilment of certain conditions.
The company, however, failed to comply with the said conditions and consequently
was required to refund the said amount in 2020.
The company debited the said amount to its machinery account in 2020 on payment of
the same. It also reworked the depreciation for the said machinery from the date of its
purchase and passed necessary adjusting entries in the year 2020 to incorporate the
retrospective impact of the same. State whether the treatment done by the company
is correct or not.
(ii) ABC Ltd. received two acres of land received for set up of plant. It also received ₹2
lakhs received for purchase of machinery of ₹ 10 lakhs. Useful life of machinery is 5
years. Depreciation on this machinery is to be charged on straight-line basis. How
should ABC Ltd. recognize these government grants in its books of accounts?
[RTP May 2021]

ANSWER:
(i) As per the facts of the case, Hygiene Ltd. had received a grant of ₹ 50 lakh in 2012 from a State
Government towards installation of pollution control machinery on fulfilment of certain
conditions. However, the amount of grant has to be refunded since it failed to comply with the
prescribed conditions. In such circumstances, AS 12, “Accounting for Government Grants”,
requires that the amount refundable in respect of a government grant related to a specific fixed
asset is recorded by increasing the book value of the asset or by reducing the capital reserve or
the deferred income balance, as appropriate, by the amount refundable. The Standard further
makes it clear that in the first alternative, i.e., where the book value of the asset is increased,
depreciation on the revised book value should be provided prospectively over the residual useful
life of the asset. Accordingly, the accounting treatment given by Hygiene Ltd. of increasing the
value of the plant and machinery is quite proper. However, the accounting treatment in respect
of depreciation given by the company of adjustment of depreciation with retrospective effect is
improper and constitutes violation of AS 12.
(ii) ABC Ltd. should recognize the grants in the following manner:
 As per AS 12, government grants may take the form of non-monetary assets, such as land
or other resources, given at concessional rates. In these circumstances, it is usual to account
for such assets at their acquisition cost. Non-monetary assets given free of cost are recorded
at a nominal value. Accordingly, land should be recognised at nominal value in the balance
sheet.
 The standard provides option to treat the grant either as a deduction from the gross value
of the asset or to treat it as deferred income as per provisions of the standard. Under first
method, the grant is shown as a deduction from the gross value of the asset concerned in
arriving at its book value. The grant is thus recognised in the profit and loss statement over
the useful life of a depreciable asset by way of a reduced depreciation charge. Accordingly,
the grant of ₹ 2 lakhs is deducted from the cost of the machinery. Machinery will be

130

recognised in the books at ₹ 10 lakhs – ₹ 2 lakhs = ₹ 8 lakhs and depreciation will be
charged on it as follows:
₹ 8 lakhs/ 5 years = ₹ 1.60 lakhs per year.
Under the second method, grants related to depreciable assets are treated as deferred
income which is recognised in the profit and loss statement on a systematic and rational
basis over the useful life of the asset. Such allocation to income is usually made over the
periods and in the proportions in which depreciation on related assets is charged. ₹ 2 lakhs
should be recognised as deferred income and will be transferred to profit and loss over the
useful life of the asset. In this case, ₹ 40,000 [₹ 2 lakhs / 5 years] should be credited to profit
and loss each year over the period of 5 years.

Q.3: Viva Ltd. received a specific grant of Rs. 30 lakhs for acquiring the plant of Rs. 150
lakhs during 2016-17 having useful life of 10 years. The grant received was credited to
deferred income in the balance sheet and was not deducted from the cost of plant. During
2019-20, due to non-compliance of conditions laid down for the grant, the company had to
refund the whole grant to the Government. Balance in the deferred income on that date was
Rs. 21 lakhs and written down value of plant was Rs. 105 lakhs. What should be the
treatment of the refund of the grant and the effect on cost of the fixed asset and the amount
of depreciation to be charged during the year 2019-20 in profit and loss account?
[MTP March 21 (5 Marks)]

ANSWER:
As per AS-12, ‘Accounting for Government Grants’, “the amount refundable in respect of a grant
related to specific fixed asset should be recorded by reducing the deferred income balance. To the
extent the amount refundable exceeds any such deferred credit, the amount should be charged to
profit and loss statement.
In this case the grant refunded is Rs. 30 lakhs and balance in deferred income is Rs. 21 lakhs, Rs. 9
lakhs shall be charged to the profit and loss account for the year 2019-20. There will be no effect on
the cost of the fixed asset and depreciation charged will be on the same basis as charged in the earlier
years.

Q.4: Ram Ltd. purchased machinery for Rs. 80 lakhs (useful life 4 years and residual value
Rs. 8 lakhs). Government grant received was Rs. 32 lakhs. The grant had to be refunded at
the beginning of third year. Show the Journal Entry to be passed at the time of refund of
grant and the value of the fixed assets in the third year and the amount of depreciation for
remaining two years, if the grant had been credited to Deferred Grant A/c.
[MTP April 21 (5 Marks)]

ANSWER:
As per AS 12 ‘Accounting for Government Grants,’ income from Deferred Grant Account is allocated
to Profit and Loss account usually over the periods and in the proportions in which depreciation on
related assets is charged. Accordingly, in the first two years (Rs. 32 lakhs /4 years) = Rs. 8 lakhs x 2

131

years= Rs. 16 lakhs will be credited to Profit and Loss Account and Rs. 16 lakhs will be the balance of
Deferred Grant Account after two years. Therefore, on refund of grant, following entry will be passed:

(Rs.) (Rs.)
Deferred Grant A/c Dr. 16 lakh
Profit & Loss A/c Dr. 16 lakh
To Bank A/c 32 lakhs
(Being Government grant refunded)

a. Value of Fixed Assets after two years but before refund of grant
Fixed assets initially recorded in the books = Rs. 80 lakhs
Depreciation for each year = (Rs. 80 lakhs – Rs.8 lakhs)/4 years = Rs. 18 lakhs per year
Book value of fixed assets after two years = Rs. 80 lakhs – (Rs. 18 lakhs x 2 years) = Rs. 44 lakhs
b. Value of Fixed Assets after refund of grant
On refund of grant the balance of deferred grant account will become nil. The fixed assets will
continue to be shown in the books at Rs. 44 lakhs.
c. Amount of depreciation for remaining two years
Depreciation will continue to be charged at Rs. 18 lakhs per annum for the remaining two years.

ACCOUNTING STANDARDS : 16
“Accounting for Borrowing Costs”

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q.1: On 15th April, 2019 RBM Ltd. obtained a Term Loan from the Bank for ₹ 320 lakhs to be
utilized as under:

₹ (in lakhs)
Construction for factory shed 240
Purchase of Machinery 30
Working capital 24
Purchase of Vehicles 12
Advance for tools/cranes etc. 8
Purchase of technical know how 6

In March, 2020 construction of shed was completed and machinery was installed. Total
interest charged by the bank for the year ending 31st March, 2020 was ₹ 40 lakhs.
In the context of provisions of AS 16 'Borrowing Costs', show the treatment of interest and
also explain the nature of Assets. [Nov 2020 (5 Marks)]

ANSWER:
As per AS 16 A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready
for its intended use or sale. Other investments and those inventories that are routinely manufactured
or otherwise produced in large quantities on a repetitive basis over a short period of time, are not
qualifying assets. Assets that are ready for their intended use or sale when acquired also are not
qualifying assets. Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or
production of a qualifying asset should be capitalized as part of the cost of that asset. Other borrowing
costs should be recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.
Construction of factory shed amounting ₹ 240 lakhs is qualifying asset in the given case. The interest
for this amount during the year will be added to the cost of factory shed. All others (purchase of
machinery, vehicles and technical know how, working capital, advance for tools/cranes) are non-
qualifying assets and related borrowing cost will be charged to Profit and Loss statement.
Qualifying Asset as per AS 16 (construction of a shed) = ₹ 240 lakhs
Borrowing cost to be capitalized = ₹ 40 lakhs x 240/320 = ₹ 30 lakhs
Interest to be debited to Profit or Loss account: ₹ (40 – 30) = ₹ 10 lakhs.
Note: Assumed that construction of factory shed completed on 31st March, 2020.

Q.2: When capitalization of borrowing cost should cease as per Accounting Standard 16?
Explain in brief. [RTP May 2021]

ANSWER:
Capitalization of borrowing costs should cease when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare
the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are complete. An asset is normally ready for its intended
use or sale when its physical construction or production is complete even though routine
administrative work might still continue. If minor modifications such as the decoration of a property
to the user’s specification, are all that are outstanding, this indicates that substantially all the activities
are complete. When the construction of a qualifying asset is completed in parts and a completed part
is capable of being used while construction continues for the other parts, capitalization of borrowing
costs in relation to a part should cease when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare that
part for its intended use or sale are complete.

Q.3: A company incorporated in June 2020, has setup a factory within a period of 8 months
with borrowed funds. The construction period of the assets had reduced drastically due to
usage of technical innovations by the company and the company is able to justify the reasons
for the same. Whether interest on borrowings for the period prior to the date of setting up
the factory should be capitalized although it has taken less than 12 months for the assets to
get ready for use. You are required to comment on the necessary treatment with reference
to AS 16. [MTP April 21 (5 Marks)]

ANSWER:
As per AS 16 ‘Borrowing Costs’, a qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period
of time to get ready for its intended use or sale. Further, the standard states that what constitutes a
substantial period of time primarily depends on the facts and circumstances of each case. However,
ordinarily, a period of twelve months is considered as substantial period of time unless a shorter or
longer period can be justified on the basis of facts and circumstances of the case. In estimating the
period, time which an asset takes, technologically and commercially, to get it ready for its intended
use or sale is considered.
It may be implied that there is a rebuttable presumption that a 12 months period constitutes substantial
period of time.
Under present circumstances where construction period has reduced drastically due to technical
innovation, the 12 months period should at best be looked at as a benchmark and not as a conclusive
yardstick. It may so happen that an asset under normal circumstances may take more than 12 months
to complete. However, an enterprise that completes the asset in 8 months should not be penalized
for its efficiency by denying it interest capitalization and vice versa.
The substantial period criteria ensures that enterprises do not spend a lot of time and effort capturing
immaterial interest cost for purposes of capitalization.
Therefore, if the factory is constructed in 8 months then it shall be considered as a qualifying asset.
The interest on borrowings for the same shall be capitalised although it has taken less than 12 months
for the asset to get ready to use.
