following information:

Segment Revenues Profit Assets


A $3,500 $600 $9,000
B 4,000 300 6,000
C 1,100 (200) 2,400
D 2,800 300 10,400
E 1,400 100 2,000
$12,800 $1,100 $29,800

Which of these segments are reportable? Fully document all supporting calculations.
Answer:
Revenue test
Threshold $12,800 × 10% = $1,280
Reportable segments A, B, D, E

Profits test
Threshold $1,100 × 10% = $110
Reportable segments A, B, C, D

Assets test
Threshold $29,800 × 10% = $2,980
Reportable segments A, B, D

Therefore, all segments must be reported separately as each segment qualifies under one or more of the
threshold tests.

33) Ravens Inc. sells office furniture, including desks, chairs, partitioning walls, and office supplies, in
more than six countries. The company is publicly traded and files annual statements with the securities
regulator. The following information was provided by the controller for the most recent year ended
December 31, 20X9.

Revenues
(in millions)
Desks $75
Chairs 40
Partitions 115
Office supplies 10
$240

Canada $75
United States 109
Australia 30
Europe 15
Asia 11
$240

Required:
Explain the nature of the disclosures that would be required by Ravens.
Answer: Ravens Inc. is a public company and must report segmented information as required by IFRS 8.
For entity-wide disclosures, public companies must disclose key information on types of products and
services sold, even if these do not qualify as separate reportable segments. Ravens would then have to
disclose the four types of revenues. In addition, companies are required to break down revenues by each
material geographic segment. For geographic segments, if revenues are material, they should be disclosed
separately. If we assume that 10% of revenue is material, then Canada, the United States, and Australia
must be disclosed separately. For reportable segments where additional information would be required,
(using the 10% of revenue threshold, which is $24 million), the segments for desk, chairs, and partitions
must be disclosed separately. For these segments, information related to revenues, expenses, assets, and
liabilities must be disclosed.

34) The controller of Getaway Corporation has prepared and summarized the following information for
her company (all in millions of $):

Inter-segment Operating
External sales sales profit (loss) Total assets
Hotels 975 89 1,050
Car rentals 512 65 642
Guided tours 205 (25) 221
Bus tours 173 100 11 250
Cruises 98 50 (15) 95
Total 1,963 150 125 2,258

Required:
Identify which segments are reportable. Also discuss any ethical issues related to reporting of segmented
information.

Answer: (All discussion in millions of dollars.)


Based on total revenues (including external and internal) of $2,113, any segment with more than $211 of
revenues will be reportable. This test results in hotels, car rentals, and bus tours being reportable based
on the revenue.

Based on total profits, the threshold is 10% of $165 ($89 + $65 + $11), which is $16.50. Hotels, car rentals,
and guided tours are reportable segments based on the profit threshold test.

Based on the asset threshold test, any segment with assets of $226 is reportable. Based on this test, only
the hotels, car rentals, and bus tour segments are reportable.

Based on the above analysis hotels, car rentals, guided tours, and bus tours are reportable.

From an ethical perspective, companies may attempt to hide poor operating results by combining
segments. It is up to management to define the segments, which could be based on products, services,
geographies, or customers. It may be that segregation by products/services would show some segments
to show losses and some profits. On the other hand, segmentation by customer type (business and
residential, for example) might report all segments being profitable, which would provide a more
favourable picture.

Beechy, Trivedi, MacAulay Advanced Financial Accounting, Seventh Edition
Chapter 7 Segment and Interim Reporting

35) Explain what an operating segment is. For each of the examples below, determine what operating
segments the company has and why.
a. A beverage company sells beer, wine, and bottled water. The beer and wine are sold through liquor
store outlets and directly to restaurants. The bottled water is sold to retailers.
b. A company sells leather apparel. The company designs, manufactures, and retails these goods
through its own retail outlets. There are primarily three divisions: (1) designing and sourcing and
purchasing various raw materials; (2) manufacturing; and (3) distribution and retail. The design and raw
materials flow through to the manufacturing division. All output of the manufacturing division is
transferred to the distribution and retail division. Only the distribution and retail division has external
revenues. The other divisions have internal revenues only.
c. A drug company researches, manufactures, and distributes its drugs to pharmacies and hospitals in
Canada, the United States, and Australia. It currently manufactures three drugs. Two of these drugs treat
diabetes, and one drug is used to treat arthritic pain. The company has a fourth drug that is in phase three
of the research process, awaiting final approval. This drug will also be used to treat pain, but mainly
headache pain.
Answer: An operating segment is defined as having three criteria as outlined in IFRS 8:
1. It is a component of the enterprise that is expected to generate revenues and incur costs.
2. Discreet financial information is regularly available through the company's accounting system.
3. The business component's operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision-
maker.

First of all, we assume that all the divisions have discreet financial information available that is regularly
reviewed by the chief operating decision maker.

a. Beer and wine and bottled water could be seen as three separate operating segments, having separate
managers and being distinct products. On the other hand, beer and wine are sold in the same markets to
the same type of customer and could be grouped as alcoholic beverages. Bottled water would then be a
separate operating segment.
b. For the leather apparel company, there are three divisions, but all the output is sold by the
distribution and retail division. There are no materials bought from external suppliers by the
manufacturing or the distribution and retail division. Although each division does generate revenues and
expenses, it is likely that they would all be aggregated together as a single vertically integrated segment,
rather than as three separate segments.
c. The company currently has four products, three of which produce revenue and one that is expected
to generate revenue. So based on product lines, the company would possibly identify four segments.
However, based on the type of disease that these products are marketed to, there are two segments–
diabetes and pain; or three segments–diabetes, arthritic pain, and headache pain. A final segmentation
would be based on geographic markets: Canada, the United States, and Australia. The final
determination of which segments to report would be based on how the assessment of the chief operating
decision-maker.
