more important than others and no discussion will be conducted in this regard.
You will be examined on all examinable topics (excluding those pointed out in section 4 hereunder) as
indicated in the prescribed books and all tutorial letters. It is not sufficient to only work through your
assignments because all the principles are not tested in there.

Please ensure that you have received the following study material:
1. Tutorial letter MO001/4/2016
2. Tutorial letter 101/3/2016
3. Tutorial letter 102/3/2016

6. Tutorial letter 202/1/2016 (semester 1) ; Tutorial letter 202/2/2016 (semester 2)
CHOICE OF CORRECT PAPER: FAC3704
It is your responsibility to ensure that you receive the correct paper in the examination. If you are
handed the wrong paper, you must immediately request the invigilator to hand you the correct paper.
FORMAT OF THE EXAMINATION PAPER
The May/June 2016 (October/November 2016) examination paper will consist of 100 marks and the
duration will be 3 hours.
SUPPLEMENTARY EXAMINATIONS AND REMARKING OF SCRIPTS
Please take note of the following important information regarding supplementary examinations and
remarks:
- To qualify for a supplementary examination opportunity, you must obtain a final mark of 40% -
49% for modules offered by the School of Accounting Sciences (for example FAC3704).
- The year mark, previously obtained will contribute to the final result of students writing
supplementary examinations. It will also contribute in the case of aegrotat (sick) examinations.
- Supplementary examinations will be conducted in October/November 2016 (May/June 2017) for
students who fail the May/June 2016 (October/November 2016) examination paper and achieve a
final mark between 40% - 49% for FAC3704.
- Only those students who obtain a final mark of 35% - 49% or 68% - 74% in a module may apply
for a remark of such examination answer book.

FAC3704/103

REMARKING OF EXAM SCRIPTS


Students who apply for the remarking of their scripts should provisionally register for the module as if
they have failed. Registration can be cancelled if the remark is successful.
EXAM PREPARATION
Steps to follow when preparing for the exam:
- First read through the theory at the start of each study unit in the study guide, and in your Group
Statements textbook making sure that you understand the principles involved. You must not read
the next sentence unless you understand what you have just read.
- Work through the illustrative examples that demonstrate the application of the principles. It is
important to work through the examples in the tutorial letter MO001/4/2016 and in the Group
Statements textbook. Do not memorise the examples, try to understand why the specific
calculations were done.
- When working through the examples please be aware of the disclosure requirements in terms of
the International Financial Reporting Standards which are required by certain sections (i.e.
statement of cash flows, associates and joint arrangements). Make sure you understand why it
has been disclosed in that specific manner. Once you understand, memorise the disclosure
requirements by referring back to the accounting standard and your tutorial letter MO001/4/2016.
- Prepare a summary of all the principles relevant to each topic and the accounting treatment and
disclosure thereof.
- The next step is to attempt the integrated questions in this tutorial letter. Answer the questions
without referring to the solution by following the steps prescribed in the next section - exam
technique. Once you have completed an answer you should compare your answer with the
suggested solution. If your answer differs from the suggested solution refer back to the tutorial
letter MO001/4/2016, the Group Statements textbooks and the accounting standard. If you still
don’t understand what has been done in the suggested solution, contact one of your lecturers.
- Remember if you don’t understand the principles involved there will be no advantage in working
through numerous questions. If you understand the principles, working through one or two
questions per scenario should be sufficient.
- Please do not attempt new questions in the few hours before you write your exam. It will only
confuse and unsettle you if you come across something you cannot do. Remember you must be
both cognitively and psychologically prepared.
- On the morning of your exam, refresh your memory by reading through the summaries you have
compiled and reciting the disclosure requirements. This will help you to relax as you will be familiar
with the information by then.
EXAM TECHNIQUE
If students apply the correct exam technique they will be able to complete the answer within the time
frame allowed and their answers will be structured as to obtain the marks in the shortest time possible.
How should you answer a question?
- Read the REQUIRED section first. Ensure that you are clear of what is required from you. Please
note that marks will not be awarded if you do not complete what is required. For example: If you
are required to provide only the note to the statement of financial position, no marks will be
awarded for disclosing the statement of financial position and/or notes to the statement of profit or
loss and other comprehensive income (e.g. profit before tax and current tax notes).
- It is also important that you read what is not required as it wastes time if you prepare unnecessary
workings and disclosure. TIME MANAGEMENT IS VERY IMPORTANT IN ANY PAPER.
- Start off by writing the layout (wording) of the disclosure. The disclosure will then be a guide for
deciding what calculations to prepare.

5
- After you have written down the layout (disclosure), start with the calculations. Once you have
done a calculation, immediately transfer the answer to your layout (disclosure). Don’t wait until all
the calculations have been done before transferring the answer. NO MARKS will be awarded if
calculations are not correctly transferred to the required section!
- It is advisable to show shorter calculations on the face of the statement of profit or loss and other
comprehensive income, statement of financial position or notes (whichever is required) in brackets
next to the disclosure. This will save time and avoid duplication. Longer calculations which cannot
fit into the line next to the disclosure or the next line must be done on a separate page marked
“calculations”. The figures in the disclosure should then be cross referenced to the calculations.
NO MARKS will be awarded if calculations are not correctly transferred to the required section!
- Never exceed the time allocated per question.
- Attempt each question in the paper. Leaving out a question could be the reason you fail.
- When answering an examination paper, it is normally advisable to answer the questions in the
order that they have been given. When an examination paper is prepared due care and
consideration is given in determining the sequence of the questions. A question on a topic that
you may consider to be easy may in fact be the more difficult question of the paper and answering
it first might cause you to spend too much time on it or upset you so much that it influences your
ability to answer the rest of the paper.
- If in doubt, always go back to the basic principles, especially where two or more topics are
combined.
- Show all calculations, even if it is as simple as adding two figures together. Marks cannot be
allocated if we cannot see how the amount has been made up.
- Make sure that you transfer the calculated amounts correctly to the disclosure. If the REQUIRED
section stipulates for instance: prepare the statement of financial position, then marks will not be
awarded to calculations that have not been transferred to the layout (disclosure). If the
REQUIRED has asked for calculations then the calculations will be marked.
- Students will only lose marks once for an error. When the figure as calculated by the student is
used (even though calculated incorrectly) in other calculations or disclosure, marks will be
allocated if the principle is applied correctly.
PERSEVERE
We would like to encourage you to tackle your studies with enthusiasm. Remember, success can only
be achieved by effort and perseverance.
Every year we find that many students do not turn up at the examination venue. You must never inflict
this disservice on yourself. Remember that if you write, you have a chance, if you don’t, you have no
chance at all.
All the best with your studies!

partial goodwill method used) -
Change in ownership 3 114

Comment:
When there is a change in % interest holding in a subsidiary and the parent entity
retained control of the subsidiary (i.e. parent has control of the subsidiary before
and after the change in interest), IFRS 3 requires the transaction to be
recognised as a transaction between owners (i.e. as an equity transaction).
The difference between the consideration received by Panem Ltd on the disposal of
the shares in Everdeen Ltd and the equity “lost/transferred” to the NCI will be
accounted for directly in equity in a reserve called change in ownership.

Any profit/loss recognised on the disposal of the shares in the parent’s separate
financial statements will be reversed on consolidation. In this question, Panem Ltd
recognised a profit on disposal of shares in Everdeen Ltd of R129 706 which must
be reversed on consolidation.

Comment:
Important exam technique
IAS 28 is very clear that ‘investment in associate’ and ‘investment in joint venture’
must be disclosed separately from any other investment. No marks will be awarded
in an exam if these are disclosed under 'investments in equity instruments'.
Associates and joint ventures are both accounted for using the equity method. You
should notice in the above consolidated statement of financial position that Air Ltd
and Fire Ltd are accounted for in exactly the same way.

Comment:
An analysis of owners’ equity is for calculation purposes only - it is not the required
disclosure. In this question only the “at acquisition” section of the analysis of owners’
equity was prepared in order to calculate the goodwill at acquisition date. The full
analysis has deliberately been omitted from this solution in order to highlight the fact
that it is not always necessary to prepare an analysis.

QUESTION 4 (continued)
3. On 1 January 2013, Pearson Ltd sold a manufacturing machine to Morgan Ltd for R155 000. The
profit mark-up on the selling price was 25%. On 1 January 2013 the machine had a remaining
useful life of 4 years. The entity’s policy is to provide for depreciation over the expected useful life
of the machinery, using the straight-line method which is in line with the allowance received from
the South African Revenue Service.
4. On 28 February 2012, Morgan Ltd acquired control over Stanley Ltd by acquiring 204 000 ordinary
shares in Stanley Ltd. The full consideration of R612 000 was paid in cash. At the date of
acquisition Stanley Ltd’s retained earnings amounted to R172 000 and the identifiable assets and
liabilities were considered to be fairly valued and equal to the carrying amounts thereof. On 28
February 2012, the market value of Stanley Ltd’s shares were R3,00 per share.
5. Since the acquisition of Stanley Ltd, Stanley Ltd sold inventory to Morgan Ltd. The inventory was
sold at a mark-up of 20% on the cost price. Included in inventory on hand on 30 June 2013,
Morgan Ltd had inventory purchased from Stanley Ltd amounting to R112 000, excluding the
R13 000 inventory in transit (refer note 6), (30 June 2012: R90 000).
6. On 30 June 2013, inventory invoiced to the value of R13 000 was still in transit between Stanley
Ltd and Morgan Ltd. This transaction had not been recorded in the accounting records of Morgan
Ltd as at 30 June 2013. Stanley Ltd recognised the sale and included the R13 000 in “trade and
other receivables” of the current year.
7. On 1 August 2012, Pearson Ltd acquired 45% of the issued ordinary shares of Fredman Ltd for
R118 800 when the retained earnings of Fredman Ltd amounted to R144 000. At acquisition date
the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of Fredman Ltd were considered to be equal
to the carrying amounts thereof. In terms of a contractual agreement with other operators,
Pearson Ltd exercises joint control over the economic activities of Fredman Ltd. The arrangement
was classified as a joint operation as per IFRS 11, Joint Arrangements and the consideration paid
was equal to the fair value of the investment in Fredman Ltd on the date of acquisition. The
contractual arrangement specifies that Pearson Ltd is entitled to 45% of all the revenues,
expenses, assets and liabilities of Fredman Ltd.
8. The group measures its investments in equity instruments at fair value through other
comprehensive income. The fair value of all equity instruments is equal to the cost thereof, unless
otherwise stated.
9. The Pearson Ltd group measures non-controlling interests at fair value (full goodwill method).
Goodwill relating to the investment in Morgan Ltd was tested for impairment on 30 June 2013 and
it was determined that the goodwill was impaired by R120 000.
10. The SA normal tax rate is 28% and capital gains tax is calculated at 66,6% thereof. You may
assume that the tax rate has remained unchanged since 1 August 2010.
11. Each share carries one vote and the issued share capital of all the entities in the group remained
unchanged since 1 August 2010.
REQUIRED:
(a) Prepare only the asset section (including the deferred tax asset) of the consolidated statement of
financial position of the Pearson Ltd Group as at 30 June 2013. (28)

Comment:

The group is a vertical group. The analysis of Stanley Ltd (bottom entity) will be
prepared first. As Morgan Ltd has an 85% interest in Stanley Ltd, 85% of the equity of
Stanley Ltd will be attributable to Morgan Ltd.

Pearson Ltd in turn owns 73% of Morgan Ltd. It is important to realise that due to
Morgan Ltd’s 85% interest in Stanley Ltd, Pearson Ltd also owns 73% of the 85%
equity of Stanley Ltd owned by Morgan Ltd.

For example, per C1 (analysis), Stanley Ltd made a profit for the year of R329 220
(after the elimination of intragroup transactions). Of this, Morgan Ltd owns 85% (R279
837), and the NCI of Stanley Ltd the remaining 15% (R49 383). Pearson Ltd owns
73% of Morgan Ltd and is therefore entitled to 73% x R279 837 = R204 281 (C2) (or
R329 220 x 85% x 73% = R204 281), and the NCI the remaining 27% (R75 556).
(Refer also to the analysis of Morgan Ltd).

Comment:
1
Trade receivables and inventories are both current assets; and are therefore
expected to realise within 12 months (hence the realisation of these current assets in
the next period - “since acquisition to beginning of current year”). The write down of
the inventory and the trade receivables at the acquisition date is passed for group
purposes only in order to correctly calculate the goodwill/gain on bargain purchase
at the acquisition date (IFRS 3). The write down is not accounted for in the separate
accounting records of Morgan Ltd. Due to this write down at the acquisition date, the
carrying amounts of these assets from the perspective of the group are less than
those reflected in the separate accounting records of Morgan Ltd. When these assets
realise, due to their carrying amounts being less, the profit for the group will be more,
or the loss for the group will be less than that recognised in the separate accounting
records of Morgan Ltd.

Comment on J2:
Courtney Ltd purchased a 35% interest in Ballantyne for R180 000. The net asset value of the
investment in Courtney Ltd was R183 750 on this date, which resulted in a gain on bargain purchase
of R3 750. The investment in Ballantyne Ltd is increased by R3 750 to equal the value of the
investment. If the investment was acquired in the current year, the gain on bargain purchase would be
included in the ‘share of profit from joint venture’ – however as it relates to a prior period it is reflected
in retained earnings.

Comment on J5:
As the inventory in the books of Ballantyne Ltd (buyer) was overstated with the unrealised profit at
year end, the 'investment in joint venture' account should be adjusted as this account reflects
Courtney Ltd's interest in the assets and liabilities (net assets) of Ballantyne Ltd.

Comment on J7:
When Ballantyne Ltd pays dividends, its equity (net assets) is reduced by the amount of the
dividend paid. Consequently, Courtney Ltd's interest in Ballantyne Ltd's equity (net assets) also
reduces, hence the reduction in “investment in joint venture”.

Comment:
Courtney Ltd (investor) sells inventory to Ballantyne Ltd (joint venture). Therefore the
inventory is in the accounting records of Ballantyne Ltd. Only the line item “investment
in joint venture” is disclosed in the consolidated statement of financial position and
therefore the unrealised profit on sale of this inventory is adjusted against this line
item.

Comment:
The group is a vertical group. The analysis of Cliff Ltd (bottom entity) will be prepared first.
As Trail Ltd has a 35% interest in Cliff Ltd, 35% of the equity of Cliff Ltd will be attributable
to Trail Ltd.

Rocky Ltd in turn owns 75% of Trail Ltd. It is important to realise that due to Trail Ltd’s 35%
interest in Cliff Ltd, Rocky Ltd also owns 75% of the 35% equity of Cliff Ltd owned by
Trail Ltd.

For example, per C4 (analysis), Cliff Ltd made a profit of R133 848. Of this profit, Trail Ltd
owns 35% (R46 847). Rocky Ltd owns 75% of Trail Ltd and is therefore entitled to 75% x
R46 847 = R35 135 (or 133 848 x 35% x 75% = R35 135), and the NCI the remaining 25%
(R11 712). (Refer also to analysis of Trail Ltd).

QUESTION 8 (SUGGESTED SOLUTION)(continued)

Comment:
The group is a vertical group. Rainbow Ltd has control (70%) over Red Ltd which in turn
has a 50% interest in Blue Ltd.

It is important to realise that due to Red Ltd's 50% interest in Blue Ltd, Rainbow Ltd also
owns 70% of the 50% equity of Blue Ltd owned by Red Ltd.

For example (per C5), Blue Ltd made a profit of R244 080. Of this, Red Ltd owns 50%
(R122 040). Rainbow Ltd owns 70% of Red Ltd and is therefore entitled to 70% x R122 040
= R85 428, and the NCI is entitled to the remaining 30% (R36 612) (Refer C5).
