In the past Halidu’s customers have sometimes returned goods under this type of agreement.
ii) On 1 July 2023, Halidu revalued its property to GH¢1,440 million, of which GH¢360 million relates to the land. This property was acquired 10 years ago at a cost of GH¢1,200 million which included GH¢300 million for the land. The building had an estimated life of 40 years when it was acquired and this has not changed as a result of the revaluation. Depreciation is charged on a straight line basis. The revaluation has not yet been recorded in the books. Halidu has a policy of transferring any excess depreciation to retained earnings.
iii) During the year, Halidu sold some plant that cost GH¢120 million on 1 December 2020. The proceeds of this sale were GH¢72 million and these have been credited to cost of sales. No other entries have been made relating to the disposal. Plant and equipment is to be depreciated on the reducing balance basis at a rate of 20% per annum. Halidu charges a full year’s depreciation in the year of acquisition and none in the year of disposal.

AAA – Mar 2025 – L3 – Q3 – Audit of Complex Transactions and Provisions

Justify provisions for toxic emission fines, outline audit procedures for a new filter and provision, and identify risks in providing assurance for a disposal licence.

You are partner for a firm called Konamoah & Associates, who are auditors for Aluco, an aluminium processing company. Aluco has several issues with its aluminium and steel byproducts, including toxic emissions and a poor health and safety record for employees in the workshop. Aluco has proven to be very lucrative for your firm and you are busy planning the coming year’s audit visits after agreeing to continue this engagement some weeks earlier. The by-products arising from the production process include the following:

  • Sharp metallic fragments that require disposal under an annually granted licence.
  • Toxic exhaust gases that require treatment by a specific filter.
  • Carcinogenic oil that require storage in underground bunkers. Aluco is in the process of installing a new filter to process toxic exhaust gases. This represents an investment of GH¢2,000,000 and is material to the financial statements. The new filter is expected to reduce the number of toxic leaks that the company has caused by over 90%, although the suppliers of the filter, Adamah Enterprises, have only just rushed this product onto the market. In the last five years, Aluco has been fined material amounts of between GH¢200,000 and GH¢400,000 by the Tema Metropolitan Assembly, so this new filter is expected to reduce their liability substantially. During an initial planning meeting held at Aluco, the Finance Director Frank Afful suggested to you that the year’s provision for toxic emission fines be removed as the new filter is likely to reduce these to negligible amounts. He has also mentioned that Aluco will need to start supplying information to assist with the metallic fragment disposal licence application and asked if your firm would be interested in providing assurance on the information required. Required: a) As the Audit Partner, justify the need for any provisions in respect of toxic emission fines. (4 marks) b) What audit procedures are you required to perform to determine the most appropriate treatment of both the new filter and the provision in the financial statements of Aluco and any possible worst case impact on your audit report? (10 marks) c) Identify SIX risks that your firm might have by agreeing to provide required assurance for Aluco’s application for a disposal licence. (6 marks)

CR – Nov 2024 – L3 – Q4a – Corporate Reconstruction

Prepare the capital reduction account and the statement of financial position for Mensimah Ltd after reconstruction.

Mensimah LTD (Mensimah) has been experiencing poor trading conditions over the last three years. As a result, it has been difficult to generate revenues and profits in the current year leading to very high inventory levels. Also, Mensimah has defaulted in paying interest due to the loan note holders for two years. Even though the debentures are secured against the land & buildings, the loan note holders have demanded either a scheme of reconstruction or the liquidation of Mensimah.

As the above trading difficulties have significantly threatened the going concern status of Mensimah, the directors as well as representatives of the shareholders and loan holders in a meeting decided to design the following scheme of reconstruction:

  1. The assets were independently valued and should now be recognised at the following amounts:

    Asset Category Amount (GH¢)
    Land 64,000
    Building 64,000
    Plant & Equipment 24,000
    Inventory 40,000

    The value of Mensimah’s investment in Adams LTD has increased to GH¢48,000 and was to be sold as part of the reconstruction scheme. As for the trade receivables, it was determined that 10% of the stated value is non-recoverable and therefore would be written off.

  2. Each GH¢1 equity share is to be redesignated as an equity share of GH¢0.25. After this, the equity shareholders would be persuaded to accept a reduction in the nominal value of their shares from GH¢1 to GH¢0.25 per share and subscribe for a new issue based on one-for-one at a price of GH¢0.30 per share.

  3. The existing 5% loan notes are to be exchanged for a new issue of GH¢28,000 9.5% loan notes, repayable in 2028, plus 112,000 equity shares of GH¢0.25 each. In addition, they will subscribe for GH¢7,200 loan notes, repayable in 2028, at par value at the rate of 9.5%.

    The 8% loan notes holders who have not received any interest for the past two years, are to receive 16,000 equity shares of GH¢0.25 each in lieu of the interest payable. It is agreed that the value of the interest liability is equivalent to the fair value of the shares to be issued. Moreover, the 8% loan notes holders have agreed to defer repayment of their loan until 2028, on condition that they are paid a higher interest rate of 9.5%.

  4. The deficit on retained earnings is to be written off and the bank overdraft is to be repaid immediately.

Mensimah’s statement of financial position as at 31 December 2023 is as follows:

Assets GH¢’000
Non-current assets
Land & buildings 154,597
Plant & equipment 48,603
Investment in Adams LTD 21,600
Total Non-Current Assets 224,800
Current assets
Inventory 96,198
Receivables 56,554
Total Current Assets 152,752
Total Assets 377,552
Equity & Liabilities GH¢’000
Equity
Equity shares (GH¢1) 160,000
Retained earnings (31,857)
Total Equity 128,143
Non-current liabilities
8% loan notes 64,000
5% loan notes 56,000
Total Non-Current Liabilities 120,000
Current liabilities
Trade payables 89,798
Interest payable 10,240
Overdraft 29,371
Total Current Liabilities 129,409
Total Equity & Liabilities 377,552

Required:

i) Prepare the capital reduction account for Mensimah LTD. 
ii) Prepare the statement of Financial Position of Mensimah LTD immediately after the reconstruction.
iii) Determine the position of each stakeholder group if the reconstruction scheme is not implemented.

PSAF – Nov 2024 – L2 – Q2a – Valuation of Legacy Fixed Assets

Valuation and accounting treatment of legacy fixed assets in compliance with IPSAS.

The Ministry of Indigenous Enterprises has been charged to collect legacy fixed assets data and value them in accordance with International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS). The Fixed Assets Coordinating Unit (FACU) of the Ministry has collected for valuation the following data for your action:

The Ministry owns a four (4) storey Office Administration block. The average cost per floor is GH¢4,741,256.25. The building was constructed on a land size of 20 plots of land owned by the Ministry. Currently, a plot of land in that area costs GH¢2,500,000. The FACU has measured the sizes of the building as follows:

  • Length: 87.5 meters
  • Width: 42.65 meters
  • Reference Price per Square Meter: GH¢4,432

However, a professional body, the Institute of Architects and Engineers, has given the reference price for the cost of such an office building at an estimated price of GH¢87,965,025. The building has not seen any further facelift ever since. However, a fence wall with a gate to enforce security and secure the land has just been completed in the current year at a cost of GH¢8,970,000 with a lifespan of 50 years.

The year of construction of the office building could not be determined, yet an old watchman who had been there for ages remembers that the building was constructed some 42 years ago, a time when his seventh child was born.
