Question 2
An entity has an asset that was classified as held for sale. However, the criteria for it remain as held for sale no
longer apply. The entity should therefore:
Recognize the noncurrent asset at its carrying amount prior to its classification as held for sale as adjusted
for subsequent depreciation, amortization, or revaluation.
Measure the noncurrent asset at the lower of its carrying amount before the asset was classified as held
for sale (as adjusted for subsequent depreciation, amortization, or revaluation) and its recoverable amount at
the date of the decision not to sell.
Remeasure the noncurrent asset at fair value.
Leave the noncurrent asset in the financial statements at its current carrying value.

Question 4
Mason Company built a new factory building during 2014 at a cost of P20 million. At December 31, 2014, the
net book value of the building was P19 million. Subsequent to year-end, on March 15, 2015, the building was
destroyed by fire and the claim against the insurance company proved futile because the cause of the fire was
negligence on the part of the caretaker of the building. If the date of authorization of the financial statements for
the year ended December 31, 2014, was March 31, 2015, Mason Company should
write off the net book value to its scrap value because the insurance claim would not fetch any
compensation.

fair value less cost to sell would be P17 million. How would the reduction in the value of the assets on
classification as held for sale be treated in the financial statements?
The entity recognizes a loss of P2 million immediately before classification as held for sale and then
recognizes an impairment loss of P1 million
The entity recognizes an impairment loss of P2 million.
The entity recognizes a loss of P3 million immediately before classifying the disposal group as held for
sale

Question 29
The latest financial statements of Joey Properties show 140,000 outstanding shares, par value of P10. The
current market value per share is P25. At the beginning of current year, the company reacquired 10,000 shares
at P4 per share. The company follows the cost method for the accounting of treasury stock. The current years
books of accounts show the value of outstanding shares as follows:

Common stock, P10 par

Less: Treasury stock
Net common stock, P10 par

1,400,000
100,000
1,300,000

that:

The par value of the treasury stock should be presented as a deduction from par value of issued shares of

the same class.

The treasury stock is incorrectly valued based on par value, instead of valuing at the current market rate.
The treasury stock should be reported as an asset.
The treasury stock is incorrectly valued based on par value, instead of valuing at the acquisition price.
