CR – May 2015 – L3 – Q2 – Financial Instruments (IFRS 9, IAS 32, IAS 39)

Advise Alilerimba Limited on accounting for convertible bonds, revenue from handsets, and IAS 32 provisions.

The following transactions relate to Alilerimba Limited:

  1. Convertible Bonds
    • On July 1, 2011, Alilerimba Limited issued 400,000 convertible bonds with a 3-year tenure and a total fair value of N4 million, which is also the par value.
    • The bonds carried an interest rate of 16% per annum, payable annually in arrears, while similar bonds without the conversion option carried an interest rate of 19% per annum on the same date.
    • The company incurred 10% issue costs. If the investors did not convert to shares, the bonds would have been redeemed at par.
    • At maturity (June 30, 2014), all bonds were converted into 1 million ordinary shares with a nominal value of N4 per share. No conversions were allowed before maturity.
    • The directors are uncertain how to account for the bonds up to the date of conversion. They were informed that the effective interest rate, considering issue costs, was 24%.
  2. Revenue Recognition for Handsets
    • Alilerimba purchases handsets at N120,000 each and sells them to customers at N90,000, provided the customers also purchase prepaid credit cards.
    • Prepaid credit cards are sold for N12,600 each and expire after six months. The average unused credit per card at expiry is N1,800.
    • Selling costs for the handsets are estimated at N600 per unit.
    • Alilerimba also sells handsets to dealers for N50,000 each, invoicing them for this amount. Dealers are allowed to return the handsets until a service contract is signed by a customer. When a service contract is signed, the handset is given to the customer free of charge.
    • Dealers receive a commission of N168,000 per customer connection. Net of the handset cost (N90,000), Alilerimba pays N78,000 to dealers for each customer connection.
    • Handsets cannot be sold separately by dealers, and the service contract has a 12-month duration. Dealers do not sell prepaid phones, and Alilerimba earns monthly revenue from the service contracts.
    • The Chief Operating Officer, a non-accountant, has requested an explanation of the accounting principles and practices to apply for handset purchases and revenue recognition.
  3. Preference Shares
    • Alilerimba Limited issued 8% preference shares with a redemption feature that entitles holders to receive cash.

Required:

Advise the directors of Alilerimba Limited on:
(a) The accounting treatment for the convertible bonds. (12 Marks)
(b) The accounting principles and practices to apply for the purchase of handsets and recognition of revenue from customers and dealers. (6 Marks)
(c) The provisions of IAS 32 regarding the presentation in financial statements of financial instruments entitling holders to receive cash with a redemption feature. (2 Marks)

Itemize and discuss the five-step model for revenue recognition under IFRS 15.

Megida hopes to obtain contracts from both the private and public sectors following the new government economic initiatives. The company’s revenue had always been accounted for in line with IAS 18, as the company had adopted IFRS. Some directors of Megida understand that with the introduction of IFRS 15: Revenue from Contracts, the way revenue from contracts is recognized may change. In particular, one of them who attended an IFRS training organized by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria (ICAN) heard about IFRS 15 and its five-step model for revenue recognition but did not understand.

AT – Nov 2014 – L3 – SB – Q2c – Corporate Tax Compliance and Reporting

Determine whether Maidogo Limited’s revenue recognition change is a policy change and calculate adjusted revenue for NIXAQ.

Maidogo Limited sells NIXAQ, a product manufactured by it, from several retail outlets. In previous years, the company has undertaken responsibility for fitting the product in customers’ premises. Customers pay for the product at the time they are ordered. The average length of time it takes from ordering to its fitting is 14 days. In previous years, Maidogo Limited had not recognised a sale in its books until the product had been successfully fitted because the rectification costs of any fitting error would be expensive.

With effect from 1 April, 2013, Maidogo Limited changed its method of trading by sub-contracting the fitting to approved contractors. Under this policy, the sub-contractors are paid by Maidogo Limited and they (the sub-contractors) are liable for any errors made in the fitting. Consequently, Maidogo Limited is proposing to recognise sales when customers order and pay for the goods rather than when they have been fitted.

Details of the relevant sales figures are:

  • Sales made in retail outlets for the year to 31 March, 2014: N69,000,000
  • Sales value of NIXAQ fitted in the 14 days to 14 April, 2013: N3,600,000
  • Sales value of NIXAQ fitted in the 14 days to 14 April, 2014: N4,800,000

Note:
The sales value of NIXAQ in the 14 days to 14 April, 2013 is not included in the annual sales figure of N69 million, but those for the 14 days to 14 April, 2014 are included.

Required:

  1. Discuss whether the above represents a change in accounting policy.
  2. Calculate the amount to include in revenue for NIXAQ for the year to 31 March, 2014.

CR – May 2023 – L3 – Q4a – Revenue Recognition (IFRS 15)

Discuss the criteria for a contract to fall under IFRS 15 for revenue recognition.

There has been significant divergence in practice over the recognition of revenue, mainly because International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) contain limited guidance in certain areas. The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as a result of its joint project with the US Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), has issued IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

IFRS 15 sets out a five-step model, which applies to revenue earned from a contract with a customer with limited exceptions, regardless of the type of revenue transaction or the industry. Step one in the five-step model requires the identification of the contract with the customer and is critical for the purpose of applying the standard. The remaining four steps in the standard’s revenue recognition model are irrelevant if the contract does not fall within the scope of IFRS 15.

Required:

Discuss the criteria which must be met for a contract with a customer to fall within the scope of IFRS 15. (10 Marks)

CR – Mar 2024 – L3 – Q3b – IFRS 15: Revenue from Contracts with Customers

This question discusses the treatment of advance payments and significant financing components under IFRS 15 for Tieku Technologies.

On 1 December 2022, Pinto Ltd (Pinto), a public company, acquired 70% of the ordinary share capital of Manpam Inc (Manpam), a private company in Liberia. The functional currency of Pinto is the GH¢, and the functional currency of Manpam is the Liberian Dollar (LS). Pinto paid GH¢39.1 million for its investment in Manpam on 1 December 2022, when the net fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Manpam were LS22,440 million.

Given that Manpam is a private company, Pinto decided to measure the non-controlling interests at acquisition at the proportionate share of the fair value of the identifiable net assets of Manpam. An impairment test conducted at the group level on the investment in Manpam at 31 December 2023 indicated an impairment loss on goodwill of LS357 million (attributable to Pinto). No impairment loss adjustments had been necessary at the previous year end.

Relevant exchange rates were:

  • 1 December 2022: GH¢1 = LS470
  • 31 December 2022: GH¢1 = LS478
  • 31 December 2023: GH¢1 = LS490

Required:
In accordance with IFRS, calculate the goodwill figure to be recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position of Pinto for the year ended 31 December 2023 (to the nearest GH¢0.1 million).

CR – Mar 2024 – L3 – Q2c – IFRS 15: Revenue from Contracts with Customers

This question requires determining whether Odjani Plc should recognize revenue as a principal or agent in the sale of airline tickets, based on IFRS 15.

Odjani Plc (Odjani) negotiates with major local and international airlines to purchase tickets at reduced rates compared with the price of tickets sold directly by the airlines to the public. Odjani agrees to buy a specific number of tickets and must pay for those tickets regardless of whether it is able to resell them. The reduced rate paid by Odjani for each ticket purchased is negotiated and agreed in advance. Odjani determines the prices at which the airline tickets will be sold to its customers. Odjani sells the tickets and collects the consideration from customers when the tickets are purchased. The entity also assists the customers in resolving complaints with the service provided by the airlines. However, each airline is responsible for fulfilling obligations associated with the ticket, including remedies to a customer for dissatisfaction with the service.

Required:
In line with IFRS 15: Revenue from Contracts with Customers, explain whether Odjani is a principal or agent and indicate how it would determine the amount of revenue to recognize from the ticket sales.

CR – July 2023 – L3 – Q3b – Regulatory framework and ethics

Identify ethical issues in financial statement adjustments and recommend actions for the new Finance Director to address these breaches.

b) Axim Manufacturing plc has just employed Mr. Kennedy Owusu as the Finance Director of the company. The previous Finance Director, Mr. Ebenezer Anokye, completed the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021 before he left. The Auditors of the company are also done with the audit of the financial statement for the year, expressing an unmodified opinion on the accounts. Mr. Ebenezer Anokye is loved by the General staff, Management members and the Board of Directors for his ability in making the organisation profitable over the years, and “guaranteeing” increased end-of-year bonus payments to staff, as a consequence.

Mr. Kennedy Owusu wanted to familiarise himself with the operations of the company, and therefore decided to go through the financial statements for the previous year. He is dismayed to find several errors in the financial statements. The previous Finance Director, Mr. Ebenezer Anokye, passed several adjusting entries in January, 2022 to reflect in the 2021 financial statements. In one of such instances, Mr. Ebenezer Anokye recognised revenue on a large order received on December 28, 2021 but shipped on January 3, 2022. The narration or explanation given to this adjusting entry is, “omission of previous year sales, now recorded”.

Also, purchase of inventory in October 2021, which was fully sold by the end of the year had been recognised in January 2022. Finally, depreciation expense had been reduced by GH¢230,000. All these adjustments were designed to increase profit after tax or earnings per share, culminating in increased bonus payment to Management and the General staff.

Required:

i) Identify the ethical issues involved in the adjustments made by Mr. Ebenezer Anokye.

(5 marks)

ii) Recommend the possible actions that Mr. Kennedy Owusu, the new Finance Director, should take to resolve the ethical breaches and to reverse the wrong accounting treatments. (5 marks)
