One of the reputable customers of Almajiri Nigeria Limited sued the company for

Limited obtained a legal opinion that there is 20% chance that Almajiri will lose the
case.
Accordingly, it has provided for N
80 million (N
400 million x 20%) included in
administrative expenses in respect of the claim. The unrecoverable legal cost of
defending the action was estimated at N20 million and these have not been
provided for as the legal action will not go to court until next year.
(ii)
The directors of the Company have estimated the provision for income tax for the
year ended September 30, 2018 at N2,280 million. The required deferred tax
provision at September 30, is N
1,200 million.
(iii) The redeemable preference shares were issued on April 1, 2018 at par. They are
redeemable at a large premium which gives them an effective finance cost of 12%
per annum.
(iv) The leasehold property had a remaining life of 20 years at October 1, 2017. The
company‟s policy is to revalue its property at each year end and as at September

development cost of N160 million per month. On April 1, 2018 the directors

Additional Information:

The estimated useful life (at the date of purchase) of the PPE components is:

  • Land: infinite life
  • Buildings: 50 years
  • Plant and equipment: 5 years

On 30 June 2018, the directors decided to sell the property because more suitable leasehold property had become available at a very competitive cost. They advertised the property for sale at that date at what was considered to be a realistic asking price of GH¢68 million. They estimated that costs of GH¢3 million would be necessary in order to sell the property.

The cost and accumulated depreciation of the disposed asset are still included in the PPE cost and accumulated depreciation accounts.

iii) On 1 January 2018, Biggs Ltd issued 200 million preference shares at 32.50 pesewas each. Costs of issue were GH¢1 million so the net proceeds of the issue were GH¢64 million. The preference shareholders will receive an annual dividend on 31 December each year of GH¢3.9 million. The shares will be redeemed at par on 31 December 2022. The effective annual finance cost attached to these shares is approximately 6.4%. The first annual dividend was paid on 31 December 2018 and is included in dividends paid.

iv) The estimated income tax on the profits for the year to 31 December 2018 is GH¢4.5 million. During the year GH¢4.2 million was paid in full and final settlement of income tax on the profits for the year ended 31 December 2017. The statement of financial position at 31 December 2017 had included GH¢4.4 million in respect of this liability. At 31 December 2018, the carrying amounts of the net assets of Biggs Ltd exceeded their tax base by GH¢35.8 million. Assume an income tax rate of 25%.
