1. In measuring the costs of purchase, you have noted that an entity bought inventory on deferred credit terms,
thus paying a price higher than it would have been under normal credit terms. How is the excess amount
treated under PAS 2, Inventories?

A. The excess is included in the cost of the inventory


B. The excess is recognized as interest expense over the period of the financing
A percentage of the excess is recognized as directly attributable to the acquisition of the
C.
inventory
D. None of the above

Answer: B. The excess is recognized as interest expense over the period of the financing

Paragraph 18 of PAS 2, Inventories emphasized that an entity may purchase inventories on deferred settlement
terms. Accordingly, when the arrangement effectively contains a financing element, that element, for example
a difference between the purchase price for normal credit terms and the amount paid, is recognized as interest
expense over the period of the financing.

2. During January 2012, Richard Company won a litigation award for P750, 000 which was tripled to
P2,250,000 to include punitive damages. The defendant, who is financially stable, has appealed only the
P1, 500,000 punitive damages. Richard was awarded P2, 500,000 in an unrelated suit it filed, which is
being appealed by the defendant. Counsel is unable to estimate the outcome of these appeals.

In its 2012 financial statements, Richard should report what amount of pre-tax gain?
A. P4,750,000
B. P2,500,000
C. P2,250,000
D. P750,000

Answer: D

Richard can report a gain of P750, 000 in its 2012 income statement because this amount is already settled
on December 31, 2012. However, the remaining P 1,500,000 and the P2, 500,000 award in the unrelated
suit are only disclosed because the defendants have appealed said amounts. The realization of such income
is contingent on the outcome, which is not wholly within the entity’s control, of the appeals filed by the
defendants. Hence, said amounts are not virtually certain to be realized.

3. In December 2012, Mikyll Company began including one coupon in each package of candy that it sells and
offers a toy in exchange for P5 and 5 coupons. The toys cost P12 each and an additional P5 to deliver it to
customers. Eventually, 65% of the coupons will be redeemed. During December, Mikyll Company sold
335,000 packages of candy, 110,000 coupons were already sent for redemption of which 30,000 is still
under processing by year end.

The estimated liability in the December 31, 2012 balance sheet of Mikyll Company is

A. 330,200 B. 330,800 C. 330,400 D. 330,600

4. Under PAS 11, Construction Contracts, which of the following statements is false regarding construction
contracts?

First statement:
Contract revenue may decrease as a result of penalties arising from delays caused by the contractor in the
completion of the contract.

Second statement:
Costs incurred in securing a contract are included as part of contract costs if they can be separately
identified and measured reliably and it is probable that the contract will be obtained.

A. First statement is false.


B. Second statement is false.
C. Both statements are false.
D. None of the above.

Answer: D

Par. 12 of PAS 11, Construction Contracts, provides:


“Contract revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. The
measurement of contract revenue is affected by a variety of uncertainties that depend on the outcome of
future events. The estimates often need to be revised as events occur and uncertainties are resolved.
Therefore, the amount of contract revenue may increase or decrease from one period to the next. For
example:
(a) a contractor and a customer may agree variations or claims that increase or decrease contract
revenue in a period subsequent to that in which the contract was initially agreed;
(b) the amount of revenue agreed in a fixed price contract may increase as a result of cost escalation
clauses;
(c) the amount of contract revenue may decrease as a result of penalties arising from delays caused
by the contractor in the completion of the contract…”

Par. 21 of PAS 11 provides:


“Contract costs include the costs attributable to a contract for the period from the date of securing the
contract to the final completion of the contract. However, costs that relate directly to a contract and are
incurred in securing the contract are also included as part of the contract costs if they can be separately
identified and measured reliably and it is probable that the contract will be obtained. When costs incurred
in securing a contract are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred, they are not
included in contract costs when the contract is obtained in a subsequent period”

Audited activities, time period audited, related activities not audited, and the nature and extent of auditing
performed may all be appropriately included in the scope statement.

Choice (a) is incorrect. Audit objectives and the reason for conducting the audit are described in the
purpose statement. Choice (c) is incorrect. The standards, measures, or expectations used in evaluating
audit findings are attributes of findings that emerge during the review of the activities identified in the
scope statement. Choice (d) is incorrect. The internal auditor’s evaluation of the effect of the findings on
the activities reviewed is properly presented in the conclusion or results section of the audit report.

1. A hedged item can be any of the following except:

A. A recognized asset or liability

Page 4 of 12
SGV Cup – Easy Round
16th NFJPIA National Mid-year Convention
October 22-25, 2013

B. A highly probable forecast transaction


C. Held-to-maturity investment with respect to interest-rate risk or prepayment risk
D. Loans and receivables

Answer: C. Held-to-maturity investment with respect to interest-rate risk or prepayment risk

As defined in paragraph 9 of PAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, a hedged item
is an asset, liability, firm commitment, highly probable forecast transaction or net investment in a foreign
operation that (a) exposes the entity to risk of changes in fair value or future cash flows and (b) is
designated as being hedged

Choice C does not qualify as a hedged item. Paragraph 79 of PAS 39 further provides: Unlike loans and
receivables, a held-to-maturity investment cannot be a hedged item with respect to interest-rate risk or
prepayment risk because designation of an investment as held to maturity requires an intention to hold the
investment until maturity without regard to changes in the fair value or cash flows of such an investment
attributable to changes in interest rates. However, a held-to-maturity investment can be a hedged item with
respect to risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and credit risk.

2. Statement 1: When there is a change in an entity's functional currency of an entity, the effect of change is
accounted for prospectively.

Statement 2:Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on translating monetary
items at rates different from those at which they were translated on initial recognition during the period or
in previous financial statements shall be recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise

Which of the following choices based on the statements is true?


A. Only statement 1 is correct
B. Only statement 2 is correct
C. Both statements are correct
D. Both statements are incorrect

Answer: C. Both statements are correct.

Paragraph 37 of IAS 21, Effects of changes in foreign exchange, states that the effect of a change in
functional currency is accounted for prospectively. In other words, an entity translates all items into the
new functional currency using the exchange rate at the date of the change.

Paragraph 29 of IAS 21, Effects of changes in foreign exchange, states that when monetary items arise
from a foreign currency transaction and there is a change in the exchange rate between the transaction
date and the date of settlement, an exchange difference results. When the transaction is settled within the
same accounting period as that in which it occurred, all the exchange difference is recognized in that
period. However, when the transaction is settled in a subsequent accounting period, the exchange
difference recognized in each period up to the date of settlement is determined by the change in exchange
rates during each period.

6. BRG Corporation has issued 100 preference shares, which are classified as equity. The preference shares
give their holders a right to a preferential dividend in priority to the payment of any dividend to the holders
of ordinary shares. Upon liquidation of BRG, the holders of the preference shares are entitled to receive out
of the assets available for distribution the amount of Php30 per share in priority to the holders of ordinary
shares. The holders of the preference shares do not have any further rights on liquidation. PQS Corporation
acquires all ordinary shares of BRG. The acquisition gives PQS control of BRG. The acquisition-date fair
value of the preference shares is Php438,000 whereas the proportionate share of BRG’s recognized
amounts of the identifiable net assets that is attributable to the preference shares is Php395,000. Which of
the following statements is true on the measurement of non-controlling interests under
PFRS 3R, Business Combinations?

A. PQS may opt to measure the preference shares either at their acquisition-date fair value or
their proportionate share in BRG’s recognized amounts of the identifiable net assets.
B. PQS can only measure the preference shares at their proportionate share in the BRG’s
recognized amounts of the identifiable net assets.
C. PQS can only measure the preference shares at their acquisition-date fair value.
D. BRG may opt to measure the preference shares either at their acquisition-date fair value
or their proportionate share in PQS’s recognized amounts of the identifiable net assets.

Answer: C

Par. 19 of PFRS 3, Business Combinations, provides:


“For each business combination, the acquirer shall measure at the acquisition date components of non-
controlling interests in the acquiree that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a
proportionate share of the entity's net assets in the event of liquidation at either:
(a) fair value; or
(b) the present ownership instruments' proportionate share in the recognized amounts of the
acquiree's identifiable net assets.

All other components of non-controlling interests shall be measured at their acquisition-date fair values,
unless another measurement basis is required by PFRSs.”

The non-controlling interests that relate to BRG’s preference shares do not qualify for the measurement
choice in paragraph 19 of PFRS 3 because they do not entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the
entity’s net assets in the event of liquidation. The acquirer measures the preference shares at their
acquisition-date fair value of Php438,000.

7. Which of the following explanations suggests the least amount of relative risk stemming from a failure to
compare a purchase order to an approved price list?

a. The comparison is not required by company policy.


b. The vendor is one used often by the company.
c. The director of the purchasing department approved the purchase order.
d. A temporary employee processed the purchase order.

Answer: D. A temporary employee processed the purchase order.

“A” is incorrect. If employees are not required to consult an approved price list, the company risks buying
at too great a price.
“B” is incorrect. Even if the company regularly buys from this vendor, there is no assurance that the price is
reasonable unless the purchase order is compared to the approved price list.
“C” is incorrect. The director should have required the purchase order to be compared to the approved price
list before approving it. Otherwise, the purchase price may exceed the approved price.
“D” is correct. The relative risk of loss to the company would be lower if a temporary employee were
responsible for the error. This suggests an isolated incident, as the employee will not be able to repeat the
error once he or she has left the purchasing department. However, the error should still be reported to
management.
