BPP revision kit

[Nikitagarwal]

Sir, this question is from BPP revision kit, apologizes for not mentioning it earlier.

[Nikitagarwal]

its an MCQ question :
Starts with Creative accounting measures ..
and in this the last one

[Nikitagarwal]

Hi Sir,
To add on the above question , for goodwill calculation while calculating Retained earning we have deducted 2000*6/12 -3000 , however a question above to it “Prodigal Co” – in BPP revision kit , we have added the profit , Can you please help me understand what changes in the CY question here?

[Nikitagarwal]

Hi Sir,
I want to add my question as well on the above question:
1) Why have they taken the Bf figures and not the C/f because a question “highveldt Co” in which they have consolidated the retained earnings for Parent and for subsdiary have used the c/f figures.
2)Why in the above question in cash and equivalent 900 is added , because the money is deducted from one company and added to another (kiind off what we do in Intercompany sales ) we deduct it to nullify the effect , here also as per my understanding it should not be included,

Thanks in advance!

[Nikitagarwal]

that how did they calculated the gain/loss in it ?

[Nikitagarwal]

so what about the period prior to april ? no amortization/depreciation would be charged to it ?

[Nikitagarwal]

there is no where mentioned in the question that it is easily sold. because as per my understanding we makes a provision until and unless it is specifically mentioned that it can be sold easily.

Please help me understand it better, thanks!

[Nikitagarwal]

The question mentions the 10 years and not 10% and moreover the retention period they want for 4 or more years, I am not too sure why did they used 10% of it ?

[Nikitagarwal]

It is at true/false in BPP kit.

And as per your above explaination for 1st scenario it will increase the gearing ratio and not decrease, but as per answer provided it was decreased, could you please explain a bit further

[Nikitagarwal]

Hi, Can you please help me calculate the exchange difference in the above question ?

Hi Kim,
thanks for explaining that 🙂
We have now received the dockets however I remember it was not required in sept 2020, so do we need to print it out and keep it us ?

[Nikitagarwal]

oh so formula is 1/n and not n .. I got confused in that only.

[Nikitagarwal]

Sir, I am not sure about the 10th point, we need to just tell them or ask for a permission and therefore wait for them to respond.
