At 31 March 2008, customers who had not paid for the goods, had the right to return $2·6 million of them. Dexon applied a mark up on cost of 30% on all these sales. In the past, Dexon’s customers have sometimes returned goods under this type of agreement. (ii) The non-current assets have not been depreciated for the year ended 31 March 2008. Dexon has a policy of revaluing its land and buildings at the end of each accounting year. The values in the above statement of financial position are as at 1 April 2007 when the buildings had a remaining life of fifteen years. A qualified surveyor has valued the land and buildings at 31 March 2008 at $180 million. Plant is depreciated at 20% on the reducing balance basis. (iii) The investments at fair value through profit and loss are held in a fund whose value changes directly in proportion to a specified market index. At 1 April 2007 the relevant index was 1,200 and at 31 March 2008 it was 1,296. (iv) In late March 2008 the directors of Dexon discovered a material fraud perpetrated by the company’s credit controller that had been continuing for some time. Investigations revealed that a total of $4 million of the trade receivables as shown in the statement of financial position at 31 March 2008 had in fact been paid and the money had been stolen by the credit controller. An analysis revealed that $1·5 million had been stolen in the year to 31 March 2007 with the rest being stolen in the current year. Dexon is not insured for this loss and it cannot be recovered from the credit controller, nor is it deductible for tax purposes. (v) During the year the company’s taxable temporary differences increased by $10 million of which $6 million related to the revaluation of the property. The deferred tax relating to the remainder of the increase in the temporary differences should be taken to the income statement. The applicable income tax rate is 20%.
(vi) The above figures do not include the estimated provision for income tax on the profit for the year ended 31 March 2008. After allowing for any adjustments required in items (i) to (iv), the directors have estimated the provision at $11·4 million (this is in addition to the deferred tax effects of item (v)). (vii) On 1 September 2007 there was a fully subscribed rights issue of one new share for every four held at a price of $1·20 each. The proceeds of the issue have been received and the issue of the shares has been correctly accounted for in the above statement of financial position. (viii) In May 2007 a dividend of 4 cents per share was paid. In November 2007 (after the rights issue in item (vii) above) a further dividend of 3 cents per share was paid. Both dividends have been correctly accounted for in the above statement of financial position. Required: Taking into account any adjustments required by items (i) to (viii) above (a) Prepare a statement showing the recalculation of Dexon’s profit for the year ended 31 March 2008. (8 marks) (b) Prepare the statement of changes in equity of Dexon for the year ended 31 March 2008. (8 marks) (c) Redraft the statement of financial position of Dexon as at 31 March 2008.

As the issue price was $1·20, this would create $50 million of share capital and $10 million of share premium. (c) Dexon – Statement of financial position as at 31 March 2008: Non-current assets $’000 $’000 Property (w (iv)) 180,000 Plant (180,500 – 36,100 depreciation see (a)) 144,400 Investments at fair value through profit and loss (12,500 + 1,000 see (a)) 13,500 –––––––– 337,900 Current assets Inventory (84,000 + 2,000 (w (iii))) 86,000 Trade receivables (52,200 – 4,000 – 2,600 (w (ii) and (iii))) 45,600 Bank 3,800 135,400 ––––––– –––––––– Total assets 473,300 –––––––– Equity and liabilities Equity (from (b)) Ordinary shares of $1 each 250,000 Share premium 40,000 Revaluation reserve 22,800 Retained earnings 46,100 108,900 ––––––– –––––––– 358,900 Non-current liabilities Deferred tax (19,200 + 2,000 (w (v))) 21,200 Current liabilities (81,800 + 11,400 income tax) 93,200 –––––––– Total equity and liabilities 473,300 –––––––– Workings (figures in brackets in $’000) (i) Dividends paid The dividend in May 2007 would be $8 million (200 million shares at 4 cents) and in November 2007 would be $7·5 million (250 million shares x 3 cents). Total dividends would therefore have been $15·5 million. (ii) The discovery of the fraud means that $4 million should be written off trade receivables. $1·5 million debited to retained earnings as a prior period adjustment (in the statement of changes in equity) and $2·5 written off in the income statement for the year ended 31 March 2008. (iii) Goods on sale or return The sales over which customers still have the right of return should not be included in Dexon’s recognised revenue. The reversing effect is to reduce the relevant trade receivables by $2·6 million, increase inventory by $2 million (the cost of the goods (2,600 x 100/130)) and reduce the profit for the year by $600,000. (iv) Property The carrying amount of the property (after the year’s depreciation) is $174 million (185,000 – 11,000). A valuation of $180 million would create a revaluation surplus of $6 million of which $1·2 million (6,000 x 20%) would be transferred to deferred tax. (v) Deferred tax An increase in the taxable temporary differences of $10 million would create a transfer (credit) to deferred tax of $2 million (10,000 x 20%). Of this $1·2 million relates to the revaluation of the property and is debited to the revaluation reserve. The balance, $800,000, is charged to the income statement. |
