The following information is relevant:

i) At the date of acquisition, the fair values of Navrongo Ltd’s assets were equal to their carrying amounts with the exception of an item of plant, which had a fair value of GH¢2 million in excess of its carrying amount. It had a remaining life of five years at that date (straight-line depreciation is used). Navrongo Ltd has not adjusted the carrying amount of its plant as a result of the fair value exercise.

ii) Sales from Navrongo Ltd to Tamale Ltd in the post-acquisition period were GH¢8 million. Navrongo Ltd made a markup on cost of 40% on these sales. Tamale Ltd had sold GH¢5.2 million (at cost) as at 30 September 2017.

iii) Other than where indicated, profit or loss items are deemed to accrue evenly on a time basis.

iv) Navrongo Ltd’s trade receivables at 30 September 2017 include GH¢600,000 due from Tamale Ltd which did not agree with Tamale Ltd’s corresponding trade payable. This was due to cash in transit of GH¢200,000 from Tamale Ltd to Navrongo Ltd. Both companies have positive bank balances.

v) Tamale Ltd has a policy of accounting for any non-controlling interest at fair value. The fair value of the non-controlling interest in Navrongo Ltd at the date of acquisition was estimated to be GH¢5.9 million. Consolidated goodwill was not impaired at 30 September 2017.
