Statement of Financial Position
Questions
Q31-3 Some liabilities, such as accounts payable and long-term debt, are
denominated in precise monetary terms. However, the amounts of
many liabilities must be estimated based on expectations about future
events.
Q31-7 Contingent liabilities could or could not give rise to actual obligations;
Interim Financial Reporting 37-3
estimated liabilities are known to exist but the amount is not definitely
known. A company could, for example, win or lose a lawsuit, but it is
actually liable for income tax. The exact amount of the income tax is
unknown until the final tax return is completed. The tax liability could
have to be estimated at the time financial statements are prepared.
Q31-8 Offset balances are used to adjust the gross amount of statement of
financial position items to arrive at proper valuations. For example,
allowance for bad debts is properly offset against the gross amount of
accounts receivable to show the net amount estimated collectible. It is
generally not proper to offset an asset account against a liability or
owners’ equity account because such an offset would not be for the
purpose of correctly valuing either account but rather to condense
financial data at the expense of adequate disclosure.
Q31-9 Assets are usually presented in the order of their liquidity, with the
most liquid items listed first.
Q31-10 There are at least four types of notes used by management to support
the financial statements and provide users with additional relevant
information. They can be classified as follows:
(a) Summary of significant accounting policies
(b) Additional information, both numerical and descriptive, to
support summary totals included in the financial statements
(c) Information about items that does not meet the recognition
criteria but that is still useful to decision makers
(d) Supplementary schedules required by the PASB or the SEC to
fulfill the full disclosure principle
Q31-11 Many assets are reported at historical cost, which is usually less than
market value, and other assets (such as homegrown goodwill) are not
included in the statement of financial position at all. Accordingly, the
statement of financial position numbers are often a very poor
reflection of what a company is worth. Typically, a going concern is
worth significantly more than the reported book value of equity.
Q31-15 Liquidity describes the amount of time that is expected to elapse until
an asset is converted into cash or until a liability has to be paid. The
ranking of the assets given in order of liquidity is:
(1) (d) Short-term investments.
(2) (e) Accounts receivable.
(3) (b) Inventories.
(4) (c) Buildings.
(5) (a) Goodwill.
Q31-18 Battle is incorrect. Retained earnings are a source of assets, but are
not an asset itself. For example, even though the funds obtained from
issuing a note payable are invested in the business, the note payable is
not reported as an asset. It is a source of assets, but it is reported as a
liability because the company has an obligation to repay the note in
the future. Similarly, even though the earnings are invested in the
business, retained earnings is not reported as an asset. It is reported as
part of equity because it is, in effect, an investment by owners which
increases the ownership interest in the assets of an entity.
Q31-19 The notes should appear as non-current liabilities with full disclosure
as to their terms. Each year, as the profit is determined, notes of an
amount equal to two-thirds of the year’s profits should be transferred
from the non-current liabilities to current liabilities until all of the
notes have been liquidated.

Inventories. Inventory is valued using the LIFO method. If the Company had
used the FIFO inventory method, the ending inventory would be
reduced by P50,000 and net income for the year would be reduced
by P35,000 after taxes. Consignment inventory is carried as an asset
by Delta until it is sold by the consignee.
Equipment. The Company depreciates its equipment using the straight-line
method. The current value of the equipment is P525,000.

The receivables amount of P126,000 includes the following balances:
CHAPTER 32
Questions
Q32-1. Two approaches can be used to measure income: the capital maintenance
approach and the transaction approach. The capital maintenance approach
uses the statement of financial position elements to determine the change in
total equity after eliminating any investments and withdrawals of resources by
owners. The transaction approach determines income by analyzing individual
transactions and events and their effect on related assets, liabilities, and
owners’ equity. Although the method of determining income differs, both
approaches arrive at the same total income figure if the same attributes and
measurements are used. However, the transaction approach produces more
detail as to the composition of income than does the capital maintenance
approach.
Q32-2. The objectives of reporting income for income tax purposes and for
financial reporting to users are not the same. Those formulating income tax
laws are usually concerned with fairness among taxpayers and with their
ability to pay taxes. Users, on the other hand, are concerned with a measure
that distinguishes between a return on investment and a return of investment.
They want a measure that matches expenses against recognized revenue. In
most cases, the same accounting method can be used for both purposes. This
will reduce both the cost and the confusion of using more than one accounting
method for the same transaction. In some cases, however, the generally
accepted accounting method is different from that required by income tax
regulations. This results in a temporary difference between the tax return and
the books and gives rise to interperiod income tax allocation.
Q32-3. Measurement methods that could be applied to net assets in the capital
maintenance approach to income determination are as follows:
(a) The historical cost of net assets acquired in exchange transactions, reduced
by an allowance for their use.
(b) The historical cost of net assets acquired in exchange transactions, reduced
by an allowance for their use and adjusted for a change in price levels
since original acquisition.
(c) The current value of net assets acquired in exchange transactions as
Interim Financial Reporting 37-19
determined by either their replacement or market values.
(d) Some variation of the above (a through c) but including in assets all
resources and claims to resources, not just those acquired in exchange
transactions.
Q32-4. Revenues and expenses are related to the ongoing major or central activities of
a business and are reported at gross amounts. Gains and losses are associated
with peripheral and incidental transactions and events and are reported as the
difference between the selling price and the book value (often the depreciated
cost). These classification and display distinctions will depend on the specific
circumstances and activities of an enterprise.
Q32-5. The following two factors must be considered when deciding at what point
revenues and gains should be recognized: (a) The resources from the
transaction are either already realized in cash or claims to cash or are readily
realizable in cash, and (b) the revenues and gains have been earned through
substantial completion of clearly identified tasks and activities. Both factors
are usually met when merchandise is delivered or services are rendered to
customers. This is referred to as the point of sale.
Q32-6. There are three specific exceptions to the general rule that were discussed in
the chapter. They are recognizing revenue (a) at the point of completed
production, (b) at the time of cash collection, and (c) at various points in
time during the operating cycle (e.g., percentage-of-completion method). The
justification for the use of these exceptions is that, in each case, the realization
and earning criteria established by the IASB are met.
Q32-12. Income is increases in economic benefits during the accounting period in the
form of inflows or enhancements of assets or decreases of liabilities that result
in increases in equity, other than those relating to contributions from
shareholders.
Q32-13. (1) Interest expense is reported on the statement of profit or loss and other
comprehensive income between income from operations and income
before income taxes.
(2) Income tax expense is reported between income before income tax and
income from continuing operations on the statement of profit or loss and
other comprehensive income.
Q32-14. The “nature of expense” classification uses a natural expense approach (such as
direct labor incurred, advertising expense, depreciation expense) without
having to make arbitrary allocations.
Interim Financial Reporting 37-21
Q32-15. (a) The remaining book value of the equipment should be depreciated over the
remainder of the five-year period. The additional depreciation (P425,000)
is not a correction of an error and is not shown as an adjustment to retained
earnings. The change is considered a change in estimate.
(b) The loss should be shown as an other income and expense item.
(c) The write-off should be shown as an other income and expense item.
(d) Interest expense should be shown as a deduction from Income from
operations.
(e) A correction of an error should be considered a prior period adjustment and
the beginning balance of Retained Earnings should be restated, if
material.
(f) The cumulative effect of the change is reported as an adjustment to
beginning retained earnings. Prior years’ statements are recast on a basis
consistent with the new standard.
Exercises
E32-2. (a) Other income and expense = P800,000 – P500,000 – P220,000 = P80,000
(b) Financing costs = P220,000 – P200,000 = P20,000
(c) Income tax = P200,000 – P100,000 = P100,000
(d) Discontinued operations = P100,000 – P90,000 = (P10,000)
(e) Other comprehensive income = P120,000 – P90,000 = P30,000
Problems
P32-1. (a)The receipt of an order from a customer does not constitute realization, nor
does it qualify as an earnings activity. Therefore, no revenue is recognized.
(b) There has been no sale of the asset to support the recognition of revenue.
Production remains to be performed, followed by sale of the finished
product. Accretion may give rise to revenue in certain instances in which it
can be objectively determined and the product has a ready market at a
definite price.
(c) The rendering of services is the earning activity, and it is assumed that a
valid claim exists against the client. The recognition criteria are met.
(d) The appreciation in value of the land is generally not recognized because it
is not yet realized.
(e) The receipt of cash meets the realization criteria; however, the revenue is
generally not reported as earned because the product has not yet been
delivered. Some argue that an estimate of the costs incurred to honor the
certificate can be made so that revenue could be recognized at the time of
certificate sale.
(f) Collection of cash on the subscriptions is realization. However, the earning
activity has yet to take place.
(g) The retirement of debt at less than the recorded liability results in the
recognition of a gain. The retirement of the debt meets the recognition
criterion for gains.
P32-2. (a) The revenue is unearned in 2016. The credit is to the liability account
Unearned Rent Revenue.
(b) Revenue of P60,000 is to be recognized in 2016: P10,000 in cash plus a
note for P50,000. In addition, interest revenue of P3,000 is recognized in
2016 (P50,000 × 0.12 × 1/2 year). The P3,000 interest revenue to be
earned in 2017 will not be recorded until 2017.
(c) Transactions in a company’s own stock are not considered an income-
generating activity. The amount received above par is credited to
Additional Paid-In Capital.
(d) Because a claim against the customer (an asset) is created when the
merchandise is shipped and actions to prepare and ship the inventory are
felt to represent the earning activity, revenue is recognized at the time of
sale. In theory, the possibility of return should be evaluated and recorded
as a reduction of revenue if some return is probable and the value of the
return can be estimated. Similarly, the probability of a customer’s taking
a cash discount should be considered and a reduction made to revenue for
estimated cash discounts. In practice, both sales returns and cash
discounts are usually not recorded until they actually occur.
Interim Financial Reporting 37-25
P32-3. (a) Immediate recognition. The future benefits of the new drug are highly
uncertain.
(b) Direct matching. The warranty costs are anticipated expenses that are
directly related to revenues.
(c) Systematic and rational allocation. The lease agreement benefits several
accounting periods in a systematic and rational way.
(d) Direct matching. Labor associated with assembling a product is matched
with revenues and reported in the period the goods are sold.
(e) Systematic and rational allocation. The delivery trucks are expected to
benefit several accounting periods in a systematic and rational way.
(f) Immediate recognition. The advertising indirectly helps to generate
revenues and is not related to specific revenues.
P32-4. (a) Subtracted or included in determining net purchases in the Cost of Goods

CHAPTER 33
Interim Financial Reporting 37-28
Questions
Q33-1 Historically, par value was equal to the market value of the shares at issuance.
Par value was also sometimes viewed by the courts as the minimum
contribution by investors. These days, par values for common stocks are
usually set at very low values (less than $1), so the importance of par value
has decreased substantially.
Q33-2 Preferred stock is stock that carries certain preferences over common stock,
such as prior claims to dividends and liquidation preferences. Often, preferred
stock has no voting rights or only limited voting rights, and dividends are
usually limited to a stated percentage or amount. The special rights of a
particular issue of preferred stock are set forth in the articles of incorporation
and in the preferred stock certificates issued by the corporation.
Q33-3 The difference between the purchase price and the selling price of treasury
stock is properly excluded from the income statement because treasury stock
transactions cannot be considered to give rise to a gain or a loss. Gain or loss
arises from the utilization of assets or resources by the corporation in
operating and investing activities. Because the recognition of treasury stock as
an asset is discouraged, transactions in treasury stock are considered capital
transactions between the company and its stockholders and thus do not give
rise to a gain or a loss.
Q33-5 When a corporation writes a put option on its own shares, the corporation
typically receives cash. In return, the corporation agrees to repurchase shares
of its own stock at a set price at some future date if those shares are offered
for sale by the option holder.
Q33-7 State incorporation laws are written to prevent corporations from wrongfully
Interim Financial Reporting 37-29
borrowing money and then funneling that money to shareholders. One device
to prevent this is to restrict the payment of cash dividends to the amount of
retained earnings. Retained earnings can also be restricted by private debt
agreements in which lenders constrain the ability of a borrowing company to
pay cash dividends.
Q33-8 The three types of unrealized gains and losses shown as direct equity
adjustments are:
Peso currency translation adjustment. This adjustment arises from
the change in the equity of foreign subsidiaries (as measured in terms
of U.S. dollars) that occurs as a result of changes in foreign currency
exchange rates.
Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities. Available-
for-sale securities are those that were not purchased with the
immediate intention to resell but will be held for an indefinite time.
Unrealized gains and losses arise because these securities must be
reported on the statement of financial position at their fair market
value.
Unrealized gains and losses on derivatives. Unrealized gains and
losses from market value fluctuations of derivative instruments that
are intended to manage risks associated with future sales or
purchases are deferred to allow for proper matching.
CHAPTER 34
Questions
Q34-1 Cash flow from operations can offer a clearer picture of a company's
performance than does net income when:
• A company reports large noncash expenses, such as write-offs,
depreciation, and provisions for future obligations. Earnings may
give an overly pessimistic view of the firm.
• A company is growing rapidly. Reported earnings may be positive,
but operations are actually consuming rather than generating cash.
• A company badly needs to report favorable earnings, as is
the case before a major loan application or before a stock
Interim Financial Reporting 37-30
Q34-2 Operating activities include those transactions and events that enter into the
determination of net income. Cash receipts from selling goods or from
providing services are the major cash inflows for most businesses. Major
cash outflows include payments to purchase inventory and to pay wages,
taxes, interest, utilities, rent, and similar expenses.
Investing activities are the purchase and sale of land, buildings, and equipment
and the purchase and sale of financial instruments not intended for trading
purposes.
Financing activities include transactions and events whereby cash is obtained
from or repaid to owners (equity financing) and creditors (debt financing).
Q34-4 The direct method reports all operating cash receipts and cash payments. The
difference between cash receipts and payments is the net cash flow from
operations. The indirect method begins with net income as reported on the
statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, adjusts for any
noncash items (such as depreciation), and converts the accrual amounts to a
cash basis. The result of this reconciliation process is net cash flow from
operations, which will be exactly the same amount as derived using the direct
method.
Q34-5 Many users favor the direct method because it is a straightforward approach
that is easy to understand. Most accountants prefer the indirect method
because it is easy to apply and because it helps explain or reconcile the
differences between net cash flow from operations and net income. Because
accountants already have to report net income, it is easier for them to start
with that number and convert it to net cash flow from operations rather than
use the direct method
Q34-6 When the direct method is used, depreciation expense is omitted from the
calculation of cash from operating activities because it is a noncash expense.
When the indirect method is used, depreciation expense is added back to net
income because depreciation was subtracted in the original computation of net
income.
Q34-7 A loss on the sale of a long-term asset is omitted from the calculation of cash
from operating activities when using the direct method. When the indirect
Interim Financial Reporting 37-31
method is used, the loss is added back to net income because the loss was
subtracted in the original computation of net income. In both cases, any effects
of the sale of the long-term asset are removed from the computation of
operating cash flow; cash received from the sale of long-term assets is
reported as an investing activity.
Q34-8 Significant noncash investing and financing transactions (e.g., the purchase of
land by issuing capital stock) are to be reported in the notes to the financial
statements or in a separate schedule accompanying the cash flow statement.
Because these transactions do not affect cash, they should not be reported on
the statement of cash flows itself.
Q34-9 The statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income details the
transactions that occurred in temporary accounts that are summarized in the
retained earnings account. The statement of cash flows provides information
relating to transactions that occurred in the cash account for the period.
Q34- Cost of goods sold, combined with the change in the inventory balance,
10 reveals how much inventory was purchased during the year. Inventory
purchases, coupled with the change in the accounts payable balance for the
year, are used to calculate the amount of cash paid for inventory purchases.

As these examples illustrate, cash from operations can be manipulated easily by
delaying payments or purchases until after the end of the period. However, the
examples also illustrate that total cash flow cannot be manipulated—total cash
flow for the years 2016 and 2015 is P162,000 in all three examples. The
manipulations only have the effect of shifting cash flow from one period to
another.

2. The lack of dividend payment may not seem appropriate under the current
circumstances for Nova, Inc. The cash balance has increased to more than three
times the beginning-of-the-year balance. Furthermore, this increase has
resulted primarily from operating activities, and the receivable and payable
balances seem reasonable. It appears that Nova has the necessary cash and is
in a good cash flow position to consider paying a cash dividend. It may be,
however, that the company is planning other future activities, such as plant
expansion, that would require considerable cash. Under those circumstances, the
company may not wish to pay cash dividends this year.

The amount determined for current assets could be computed last
and then is a “plug” figure. That is, total liabilities and equity is
computed because information is available to determine this
amount. Because the total assets amount is the same as total
liabilities and equity amount, the amount of total assets is
determined. Information is available to compute all the asset
amounts except current assets and therefore current assets can be
determined by deducting the total of all the other asset balances
from the total asset balance (i.e., P556,000 – P37,500 – P201,000 –
P16,000). Another way to compute this amount, given the
information, is that beginning current assets plus the P25,000
increase in current assets other than cash plus the P41,500 increase
in cash equals P301,500.

Noncash investing and financing activities were the purchase of land through
issuance of P30,000 of bonds.
(c) Cash flow information is useful for assessing the amount, timing,
and uncertainty of future cash flows. For example, by showing
the specific inflows and outflows from operating activities,
investing activities, and financing activities, the user has a better
understanding of the liquidity and financial flexibility of the
enterprise. Similarly, these reports are useful in providing feedback
about the flow of enterprise resources. This information should
help users make more accurate predictions of future cash flow. In
addition, some individuals have expressed concern about the
quality of the earnings because the measurement of the income
depends on a number of accruals and estimates which may be
somewhat subjective. As a result, the higher the ratio of cash
provided by operating activities to net income, the more comfort
some users have in the reliability of the earnings. In this problem
the ratio of cash provided by operating activities to net income is
60% (P19,200 ÷ P32,000).

CHAPTER 35
Essay Questions
Q35-1. a. A change in principle – a different generally accepted accounting
principle or procedure is adopted.
Q35-2. A pro forma amount is an “as if” earnings amount; required only with respect
to reporting the effects of changes in accounting principle (that require current
application) to satisfy the qualitative characteristic of comparability.
Q35-4. The book value is treated as if it were the new original cost. The revised
residual value is subtracted from the book value, resulting in revised
depreciable cost, the basis for subsequent depreciation.
Q35-5. A company could justify a change in accounting principle on the grounds that
the new principle is preferable to the old. One example would be a change
from LIFO to FIFO, because the change results in a more meaningful
Interim Financial Reporting 37-50
matching of costs with revenues. Another example would be a change from
completed-contract method to percentage-of-completion method.
Q35-6. Since accounting involves periodic reporting and matches costs as expenses
against revenues, it necessarily involves estimation. Changes in estimates are
inevitable as new events occur, more experience is acquired, or additional
information is obtained. Some examples of changes in accounting estimates
include a change in the estimated useful life of an asset, a change in estimated
warranty costs because of a newly discovered defect, a change in the estimated
amount of uncollectible accounts receivable, and a change in the estimated
amount of recoverable mineral reserves.
A company accounts for a change in accounting estimate in the period of
change if it affects that period only, or in the period of change and future
periods if it affects both. A change in accounting estimate does not require a
cumulative effect adjustment or prior period restatement.
Q35-7. A material error of a prior period that is discovered in the current period is
accounted for as a prior period adjustment (restatement) and therefore is
excluded from net income. On the current period financial statements, the
company reports the error (net of related income tax effects) as an adjustment
to the beginning balance of retained earnings. When comparative statements
are presented, it makes adjustments to the affected items on the statements of
profit or loss and other comprehensive income and to the retained earnings
balances, as well as the balances of the affected statement of financial position
accounts for all periods reported. In addition, the company discloses the
nature of the error in previously issued financial statements and the effect of
its correction on net income and the related earnings per share amounts for
each year reported.
Q35-9. Errors that affect only a company’s statement of financial position are mainly
classification errors. These include classifying a long-term note receivable as
a current receivable and failing to include the current portion of long-term debt
in current liabilities.
Q35-10. Errors that affect only a company’s statement of profit or loss and other
comprehensive income usually result from misclassification of items.
Examples of this include combining interest revenue with sales revenue and
including selling expenses in cost of goods sold.
Q35-11. One example of an error that is counterbalanced in the following period is the
failure to accrue an interest liability in the current period when the interest is
to be paid in the next period. The effect of this error in the current period is to
understate interest expense and thus overstate net income and retained
earnings, and to understate interest payable. In the following period when the
interest is paid and treated as an expense, interest expense is overstated and net
income is understated by the same amount as it was overstated in the previous
period. Therefore, at the end of the second period, retained earnings is
correctly stated.
Another example of an error that is counterbalanced in the following period is
the overstatement of ending inventory under a periodic inventory system. In
the current period, cost of goods sold is understated, which results in net
income and retained earnings being overstated. In the following period,
however, beginning inventory is overstated, so cost of goods sold is overstated
and net income is understated, which results in retained earnings being
correctly stated at the end of the second period.
Q35-12. One error that is not counterbalanced in the following period is the expensing
of a depreciable fixed asset in the period it is purchased. In the year of
purchase, expenses are overstated, assets are understated, depreciation expense
is understated, and accumulated depreciation is understated. The
understatement of the asset and depreciation expense will continue over the
life of the asset. The statement of financial position accounts (Asset,
Accumulated Depreciation, and Retained Earnings) will only be correct upon
the disposal of the asset.
Another noncounterbalancing error is the failure to record properly a bond
discount or premium. This causes interest expense to be incorrectly reported
and liabilities and net income to be incorrect for the life of the bonds.
Interim Financial Reporting 37-52
Q35-13. If discovery occurs in 2015, a prior period adjustment is recognized to correct
the overstatement of 2014 net income, and wage expense is reduced to correct
overstatement in 2015. If discovery occurs in 2016, no entry is needed
because the overstatement of 2014 income affecting retained earnings is offset
by the understatement of 2015 income. The errors have counterbalanced.
Q35-14. a. Affects statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income only:
(1) Interest revenue credited to dividend income, or vice versa.
(2) Credit premium on par value shares to the share capital amount, or
vice versa.
c. Affects both statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive
income and statement of financial position:
Q35-17. The following changes in accounting principle require prior period restatement
(retroactive adjustment) instead of cumulative effect disclosure: (1) a change
from the LIFO method of inventory pricing to another cost flow method; (2) a
change in the method of accounting for long-term construction-type contracts;
(3) a change to or from the full-cost method of accounting, used in the
extractive industries, (4) a change from retirement-replacement-betterment
accounting to depreciation accounting, for railroad track structures; and (5) a
change from the fair value method to the equity method for investments in
ordinary shares. The reason for restating prior periods for these changes
instead of showing the cumulative effect in the current year is that the size of
the cumulative effect of the change may be so much greater than operating
income that including it in the statement of profit or loss and other
comprehensive income might appear to reduce the significance of income
from operations. Prior period restatement is also required when a change is
made to a new accounting principle in order to conform to requirements set
Interim Financial Reporting 37-54
forth in PAS.
For those changes in accounting principle for which the cumulative effect
cannot be determined, disclosure of the change is necessary but no
adjustments are required if the change occurs in the first interim period. If a
company makes the change in other than the first interim period, it restates the
financial statements of the prechange interim periods by applying the newly
adopted accounting principle to those prechange interim periods.
Q35-19. A company corrects errors even after they have counterbalanced whenever it
presents for comparative purposes financial statements affected by the error.
Otherwise, the errors may cause financial statements to be misleading to users
by distorting trends and financial ratios.
Exercises
E35-3.
Requirement 1
The total change in cost of goods sold prior to 2015 of P180,000 (P85,000 +
P50,000 + P45,000) decreases the value of the inventory by that amount. The
inventory value using the FIFO cost flow assumption was greater than it
would have been had the average cost flow assumption been used since the
FIFO assumption charged lower costs to cost of goods sold and left the higher
costs in inventory. The journal entry is:

E35-9.
Requirement 1
This is a change in accounting estimate and will require no retroactive
restatement. It can be assumed that the depreciation expense of P10,000 taken
up in 2015 already considered the remaining method depreciation cost or book
value under the old method at the beginning of that year, the remaining useful
life and salvage value, if any. Hence, there is no entry needed to record the
accounting change.
Requirement 2
There will be no change in the reported earnings for 2014. The amount to be
reported is P50,000.
Requirement 3
The 2015 annual report will disclose the change from accelerated method to
straight-line depreciation and the difference in amounts under the two
methods.
Interim Financial Reporting 37-62
E35-10.
Requirement 1
This is a change in accounting principle because the method of inventory is
being changed and therefore, the retroactive approach must be used. This
approach means that (a) an entry must be made for the catch-up adjustment as
of the beginning of the year of change, (b) the comparative statements must be
restated to the new basis to be comparable, and (c) the beginning balance of
retained earnings for all years reported must be adjusted for any change effect
prior to those years. Pro forma reporting is not required.
Requirement 2
Analysis of the accounting change:
To January 1, 2014, increase in retained earnings = (P30,000 – P20,000) =
P10,000 pretax (P7,000 after tax)
To January 1, 2015, increase in retained earnings = (P70,000 – P40,000) =
P30,000 pretax (P21,000 after tax)
For 2014:
Beginning inventory effect
P30,000 – P20,000 =................. P10,000 increase in CGS under FIFO
Ending inventory effect
P70,000 – P40,000 =................. P30,000 decrease in CGS under FIFO
Net effect on CGS..................... P20,000 decrease in CGS under FIFO
(Therefore pretax income is P20,000 higher under FIFO, and net income is
P14,000 higher).
For 2015:
Beginning inventory effect
P70,000 – P40,000 =................. P30,000 increase in CGS under FIFO
Ending inventory effect
P76,000 – P44,000 =................. P32,000 decrease in CGS under FIFO
Net effect on CGS..................... P 2,000 decrease in CGS under FIFO
(Therefore pretax income is P2,000 higher under FIFO, and net income is
P1,400 higher).

Requirement 4
Footnote to the comparative statements:
During 2015, the firm changed from LIFO to FIFO for inventory accounting
purposes because FIFO more realistically measures income. The change
increased 2014 net income P14,000 (P1.40 per share) and 2015 net income
P1,400 (P0.14 per share).

CHAPTER 36
Essay Questions
Q36-1. Consolidation presents the account balances of a business combination without
regard for the individual component companies that comprise the organization.
Thus, no distinction can be drawn as to the financial position or operations of the
separate enterprises that form the corporate structure. Without a method by
which to identify the various individual operations, financial analysis cannot be
well refined.
Q36-2. The word “disaggregated” refers to a whole that has been broken apart. Thus,
disaggregated financial information is the data of a reporting unit that has been
broken down into components so that the separate parts can be identified and
studied.
Q36-4. The Revenue Test: A segment is considered significant if its revenues amount to
10 percent or more of the combined revenues of all business segments.
Revenues (for this test) include all operations revenues and intersegment
transfers except for interest income on intersegment loans and advances (unless
Interim Financial Reporting 37-80
the segment is principally of a financial nature).
A business segment need only meet any one of the above tests to be considered
of significant size to warrant separate disclosure.
All of the segments of a company that do not meet any of these three tests should
be combined and disclosed as an aggregate figure along with the disaggregated
information for the reportable segments.
Q36-6. Corporation operating expenses that are not directly traceable to a single segment
should be assigned to the segments on a logical basis. Allocation bases such as
square footage, cubic footage, total revenues, employee hours, etc. can be used
depending upon the nature of the expense. For convenience, many expenses are
often assigned based on sales or sales less traceable costs. General corporation
expenses which are unrelated to the segments should not be allocated to them.
Q36-7. According to PAS 14, “identifiable assets of a business segment are those
tangible and intangible enterprise assets that are used by the business segment,
including (i) assets that are used exclusively by that business segment and (ii) an
allocated portion of assets used jointly by two or more business segments.
Assets used jointly by two or more segments shall be allocated among the
industry segments on a reasonable basis.”
Q36-8. Both the revenue test and the identifiable assets test are based on a 10 percent
criterion. In each case, segment totals are determined to arrive at a figure for the
enterprise as a whole. Each segment balance is then compared to this
accumulated total based on a 10 percent standard for required disclosure.
Interim Financial Reporting 37-81
Q36-9. To ensure that sufficient business segments are being disclosed, PAS 14
established an additional reporting requirement: the business segments being
separately disclosed must generate at least 75 percent of the total sales made to
unaffiliated customers. If this standard is not met, enough additional segments
must be disclosed to reach this level although they failed to meet even one of the
three tests of significance.
Q36-10. Only two tests are applied in determining significant geographic segments: a
revenue test (which does not include any intersegment transfers) and an
identifiable assets test. Once again, only one test need be met for a segment to
be considered of significant size to warrant disclosure. Both tests are based on a
10 percent criterion.
Q36-12 After the company decides on the segments for possible disclosure, a
quantitative test is made to determine whether the segment is significant enough
to warrant actual disclosure. A segment is identified as a reportable segment if it
satisfies one or more of the following tests.
(a) Its revenue (including both sales to external customers and intersegment
sales or transfers) is 10% or more of the combined revenue (sales to
external customers and intersegment sales or transfers) of all the
company’s operating segments.
(b) The absolute amount of its operating profit or operating loss is 10% or
more of the greater, in absolute amount, of
1. the combined operating profit of all operating segments that did
not incur an operating loss, or
2. the combined loss of all operating segments that did incur loss.
(c) Its identifiable assets are 10% or more of the combined identifiable
assets of all segments.
In applying these tests, two additional factors must be considered. First, segment
data must explain a significant portion of the company’s business. Specifically,
the segmented results must equal or exceed 75% of the combined sales to
unaffiliated customers for the entire company. This test prevents a company
from providing limited information on only a few segments and lumping all the
rest into one category.
Second, the profession recognized that reporting too many segments may
overwhelm users with detailed information. The PASB decided that 10 is a
reasonable upper limit for the number of segments that a company must disclose.
Interim Financial Reporting 37-82
Q36-13 PFRS requires that a company report:
(a) General information about its operating segments.
(b) Segment profit and loss and related information.
(c) Segment assets and liabilities.
(d) Reconciliations (reconciliations of total revenues, income before income
taxes, and total assets and liabilities).
(e) Information about products and services and geographic areas.
Information about two operating segments can be aggregated only if the segments
have the same basic characteristics related to the: (1) nature of the products and
services provided, (2) nature of the production process, (3) type or class of
customer, (4) methods of product or service distribution, and (5) nature of the
regulatory environment.
Q36-15 One of the major reasons for not providing segment information is that
competitors will then be able to determine the profitable segments and enter that
product line themselves. If this occurs and the other company is successful, then
the present shareholders of Ligaya Inc. may suffer. This question should
illustrate to the student that the answers are not always black and white.
Disclosure of segments undoubtedly provides some needed information, but
some disclosures are confidential.
Exercises
E36-1. Memorandum
Filipinas must report that it has three major customers, and that sales to each
are P16,000,000, P14,000,000 and P13,000,000 respectively. Filipinas does
not have to disclose the identity of the major customers.
E36-2. Requirement 1
Since all the groups within the Health care products divisions are considered
operating segments, each must be considered as a potentially reportable
segment. Each group and the other two divisions must be examined as to
whether they meet the quantitative thresholds to require separate disclosure.
The revenue test is to report all operating segments with revenues (including
external and internal revenues) greater than 10% of (P10,200 + P500 + P2,000
+ P700) = P1,320.
Pharmaceuticals, Consumer Health Care, and the Food Products division meet
this threshold. (Note that the Food products division does not meet the
threshold if intersegment sales were not considered.)
Thus all five operating segments meet one or more of the threshold quantities.
All five are reportable segments.

E36-3. Requirement 1
Initially all operating segments are examined using the quantitative thresholds
to identify reportable segments.
Thus, any operating segment with revenues equal to or greater than P200
million is a reportable segment (segments A and C). Any segment with
identifiable assets greater than P150 million is a reportable segment (segments
A, C, and E). The total operating profit for all the segments with operating
profits totals P300 million, thus any segment with an operating profit or loss
equals to or greater than an absolute amount of P30 million is a reportable
segment (Segments A, C, and D). Thus, segments A, C, D, and E are
reportable segments without regard to the aggregation criteria.
Requirement 2
Interim Financial Reporting 37-86
Reportable segments must provide information on separate segments whose
sum of revenue is at least 75 percent of the firm’s total revenue. Segments A,
C, D, and E have revenue of P1,330 million, which is only 66.5% of the total
revenue. If a majority of the aggregation criteria are met by two segments,
they can be aggregated for purposes of identifying reportable segments.
Segments A and B are candidates for combining, but they have only 2 of the 5
criteria in common; thus they cannot be aggregated. Since segments F and G
are similar on four of the five criteria, they meet the majority test and can be
aggregated as a reportable segment as follows:
Requirement 3
If any major customer contributes 10 percent or more to a firm’s revenues, this
fact must be disclosed, including the total amount of revenues from each such
customer, and the segment or segments reporting the revenues. The Philippine
government contributes over 10% of Andres’ revenues and must be reported.
Neither of the other significant customers are major customers under the PAS
14 criterion.
An example disclosure:
Major Customers
Revenues from one customer of Andres Corporation’s segments A and C
represents approximately P220 million of the company’s total revenues.

E36-6. Requirement 1
Determination of reportable segments (see the working papers that follows):
a. Revenue Test. Since the sales of Segment D (P63,900) are more than
10% (P100,000 x 0.10 = P10,000) of the sales for all business
segments, Segment D is considered to be a reportable segment.
b. Profit Test. Since the profits of Segment D (P21,500) and Segment E
(P3,600) are more than 10% (P35,000 x 0.10 = P3,500) of the total
profit for all business segments, both Segment D and Segment E are
reportable segments.
c. Asset Test. Since the assets of Segment A (P15,100) and Segment D
(P87,900) are more than 10% (P145,000 x 0.10 = P14,500) of the
combined assets of all operating segments, Segment A and Segment D are
reportable segments.
Interim Financial Reporting 37-88
Based on the above tests, Segments A, D, and E are the reportable segments
and Segments B and C should be combined for reporting purposes.

E36-7 It should be emphasized that because a company discloses its segmental results,
this does not diminish the necessity for providing consolidated results as well.
Sometimes individuals become confused because they believe that employment
of segmental reporting means that consolidated statements should not be
presented. There appears to be a need to provide both types of information. The
consolidated results provide information on overall financial position and
profitability, while the segmental results provide information on the specific
details which comprise the overall results.
E36-8 P600 + P650 + P250 + P275 + P225 + P200 + P700 = P2,900 = total revenue.
P2,900 X 10% = P290.
Lilibeth, Ken, and Mona meet this test, since their revenues equaled or
exceeded P290.
E36-9 P90 + P25 + P50 + P34 + P150 = P349 = total profits of profitable segments.
P349 X 10% = P34.90.
Lilibeth, Ken, Velvet, and Mona meet this test, since their absolute profit or
loss is equal to or greater than P34.90.
Problems
P36-1. Revenues from a single customer must be disclosed if the amount is 10 percent or
more of sales to unaffiliated customers. For this company, the amount can be
determined as follows:
Sales to Outsiders
Mango ......................................................................... P123,000
Piña.............................................................................. 81,000

Furniture ................................................. 2,475,000 55%
Paper ....................................................... 1,125,000 25%
Total ................................................ P4,500,000 100%
Allocation of Common Costs (corporate expenses, interest expense, and income taxes
are not included)
Sporting goods 20% x P400,000 = P 80,000
Furniture 55% x P400,000 = 220,000
Paper 25% x P400,000 = 100,000
Since the operating profits (P1,775,000) are larger in an absolute sense than the single
operating loss, this figure is used as the basis for the operating profit or loss test. Thus,
an operating profit or loss of P177,500 (10%) is necessary in order to require
disclosure. The sporting goods segment meets this standard as does the furniture
segment. The paper segment does not.
P36-4. Revenue Test (Interest on intersegment loans is omitted except for finance segment)
(numbers in thousands)
Segment Revenues Percentage
Plastics P 6,425 63.7% (reportable)

Finance 186 103 22.50 60.50
Total P2,165.50 P 449.50
Since P2,165.50 is larger in absolute terms than P449.50, it will serve as the basis for
testing. Each of the operating profit and loss figures will be compared to P2,165.50 (in
an absolute sense).
Plastics P1,714.75 / P2,165.50 = 79.2% (reportable)
Metals P 390.25 / P2,165.50 = 18.0% (reportable)
Lumber P 269.25 / P2,165.50 = 12.4% (reportable)
Paper P 180.25 / P2,165.50 = 8.3%
Finance P 60.50 / P2,165.50 = 2.8%
The plastic and metals segments meet all three tests and are, therefore, reportable.
Lumber and finance each meet only one of the three tests but that is sufficient for
disclosure to be required.

Depreciation for Divisions B and C was P15,000 and P6,000, respectively. Capital
expenditures of Divisions B and C amounted to P50,000 and P27,000, respectively, in
2014 and are included in the total company assets at year-end.
Requirement 4
Segment Profit
Profit margin before income taxes =
Segment Revenues (Sales)
P56,000
Division B: P360,000 = 15.6%
P18,700
Division C: = 12.5%
P150,000
P5,600
Other Divisions: = 6.2%
P90,000
These ratios reveal that the two reportable divisions (A and B) have higher profit
margin than the other operating divisions. This may indicate less efficiency in the
control of costs and expenses in the other divisions.
Operating expenses:
Cost of goods sold P 49,000 P 70,000 P21,000 P140,000 P 0 P140,000

Segment profit P 37,120 P 33,800 P 7,080 P 78,000 P (8,000) P 70,000
Note: Of the P30,000 total depreciation expense, P2,000 is related to general corporate
activities. The remaining depreciation expense is allocated to Segments A and B and
the other operating segments in the amounts of P11,200, P12,600, and P4,200
respectively.
Segment profit is total revenues less operating expenses. Income taxes, depreciation
expense, and other operating expenses related to general corporate activities have not
been deducted in the computation of operating profits.
P36-7 Computations are given below which furnish some basis of comparison of the two
companies:

Interim Financial Reporting 37-95
Henry Co. appears to be a better short-term credit risk than Plain Co. Analysis of
various liquidity ratios demonstrates that Herring Co. is stronger financially, all other
factors being equal, in the short-term. Comparative risk could be judged better if
additional information were available relating to such items as net income, purpose of the
loan, due date of current and non-current liabilities, future prospects, etc.

CHAPTER 37
Interim Financial Reporting 37-97
Questions
Q37-1. Interim reporting is the process of formally publicly disclosing information at
interim periods during a company’s fiscal year. Interim reporting is important
because it provides more timely information than annual reporting.
Q37-2. Statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income items that are
separately classified should be reported in full in the interim period in which
they occur. They are not allocated among interim periods because they are not
associated with the revenue of the periods.
Q37-4. In regard to the reporting of its inventories in interim reports, a company using
an estimation technique must report the method used and any significant
adjustments resulting from the reconciliation with the annual physical
inventory. A permanent loss (and any subsequent recovery) due to inventory
decline must be recognized in accordance with lower of cost or market
procedures. Finally, when a company uses a standard cost accounting system,
the accounting for all variances must follow routine annual procedures and
any significant unexpected purchase price or volume variances should be
disclosed.
Interim Financial Reporting 37-98
Q37-5. A company matches expenses not directly associated with product sales
during an interim period against revenues using a variety of bases. In this
regard, (a) expenses affecting more than one interim period are allocated to
the interim periods on the basis of time expired, benefits received, or activity
associated with the periods; (b) expenses identified only with activities of the
current interim period are allocated to that period; and (c) gains and losses
incurred in an interim period are recognized in that period.
Exercises
E37-1. Since management estimates the total bonus amount for the year will be
P500,000, and this expense relates equally to each quarter, then the bonus
expense is allocated one-fourth to each quarter. The first quarter allocation is
P125,000. The logic of using the P500,000 estimate rather than the 2014
actual of P440,000 is that management’s estimate is viewed as a better
predictor of what the actual bonus will be than the 2014 amount. Since the
bonus is compensation to management for work completed during the year,
and presuming that the management work effort is evenly distributed
throughout the year, it is appropriate to allocate an equal amount to each
quarter.
At the end of the second quarter, the estimated annual tax rate is reduced to
30%. The total income tax expense obligation for the combined two quarters
is determined:
Pretax accounting income .......................................................... P250,000
Appropriate tax rate ................................................................... x 0.30
Interim Financial Reporting 37-99
Total income tax expense to date............................................... P 75,000
The amount to be recorded as income tax expense in the second quarter is the
difference between the total year-to-date amount of obligation, less the
amount recognized in prior interim periods:
Total income tax expense to date............................................... P75,000
Income tax expense recorded in earlier periods ......................... 35,000
Income tax expense to be reported in second period ................. P40,000
As of the end of the second quarter, the total amount of income tax expense
recorded is P75,000.

Problems
P37-1. Requirement 1
The determination of sales and costs of sales is in accordance with the
preferred method. The underapplied fixed overhead is appropriately deferred
as an asset. The results of the first quarter are exactly on schedule with the
budget, thus no volume variance is expected at year-end.
Given there is a reported operating loss, but that the firm is on budget to report
an operating profit, a negative tax expense should be reported in the interim
report. The operating loss of P50,000 has a negative effect of P50,000 x 0.35,
or P17,500. This amount should be reported as a credit, reducing the net loss
reported. It would also be helpful to provide explanatory notes that indicate
that the firm is on budget for the year, and that an operating profit is expected.
Requirement 2
Interim reports are usually comparative reports with the current quarter
compared with the same quarter a year earlier, and the year to date reported
and compared with the year to date a year earlier. Also, as noted above in
Requirement 1, several areas should have note disclosures providing
additional explanation. A very important and needed explanation would deal
with the fact that the firm is on budget and expects to earn a profit for the year.
This is especially important since the data will show an operating loss for the
quarter even after the suggested changes in Requirement 1 are made.
Interim Financial Reporting 37-102
Requirement 3
Interim financial reporting does not need to be a complete set of financial
statements, although it is acceptable to present a complete set of financial
statements. Interim reports can consist of only summarized financial data. If
a firm elects to present only summarized financial data, the following data
should be reported, as a minimum:
1. Sales, income taxes, and net income.
2. Disposal of a segment of a business and extraordinary, unusual or
infrequently occurring items.
3. Basic and fully diluted earnings per share.
4. Seasonal revenue, costs, or expenses.
5. Significant changes in estimates or provisions for income taxes.
6. Changes in accounting principles or estimates.
7. Significant changes in financial position.

inventory to solve this problem. This method is discussed in Chapter 10 –

Reconstruction of Accounts
Questions
Q38-1. Under cash-basis accounting, a company records revenues when it collects
cash from sales and records expenses when it pays cash for its operations. To
convert its cash-basis accounting records to an accrual-based statement of
profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the company must adjust its
cash receipts to convert them to sales revenues and must adjust its cash
payments to convert them to cost of goods sold and operating expenses.

CHAPTER 39
Questions
Q39-1. A general price-level change is an increase or decrease in the overall level of
prices of goods and services throughout the economy. It is measured by using
a general price-level index such as the Gross National Product Implicit Price
Deflator or the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers.
United States.
Q39-3. A monetary item is either cash, assets that represent a fixed number of pesos
to be received, or obligations that represent a fixed number of pesos to be
paid. A nonmonetary item is any financial-statement item that is not monetary
in nature. Cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and interest payable
are examples of monetary items. Examples of nonmonetary items include
inventory, plant assets, obligations under product warranties, and ordinary
shares.
Q39-4. The following methods may be used to determine an asset’s current cost:
1. Direct pricing. This method requires the use of current market prices (as
indicated by current invoice prices, vendors’ price lists, current standard
manufacturing costs, or appraisals).
2. Indexing. This method requires the use of an appropriate specific price
index to restate the asset’s historical cost.
Q39-9. Current cost accounting, one form of current value accounting, is a system in
which the attribute measured in financial statements is current cost, and the
measuring unit is the nominal peso. In a system of current cost accounting, an
asset is measured at the amount a company would currently have to spend to
acquire the same asset in its existing condition. Current costs, as opposed to
historical costs, are used to measure the elements of financial statements, and
holdings gains and losses are reported as the specific prices of a company’s
assets and liabilities change.
Q39-10. Holding gains and losses in a system of current cost accounting are items that
occur as a result of changes in the current cost of an asset while it is simply
held over time. In a current cost system, holding gains and losses are reported
in the period in which the current cost of an asset changes, even though the
asset might not have been sold during that period.
