NYX Chemicals (hereafter referred to as ‘NYX’) was started by Joan Moloi and
specializes in the manufacturing of hygienic consumable products such as cleaning
detergents and hand sanitizers. The accountant of NYX has recently resigned and
Joan is clueless when it comes to accounting and finances. Joan approached you for
assistance with some outstanding matters related to the financial year ended 31
August 2021 presented below:

1.1. The bank statement reflected an overdraft balance of R205 000 on 31
August 2021.
1.2. On comparison to the bank statement it was discovered that a payment
of R46 000 made to a creditor on 12 August 2021 has been recorded as
R64 000 in the cash payments journal. The amount was correctly reflected in
the bank statement.
1.3. The bank credited NYX’s account with R20 000 in error.
1.4. A payment of R250 000 received from a debtor on 31 August 2021 and
included in the cash receipts journal was not yet reflected in the August bank
statement.
1.5. Cheque 4566 relates to a reconciling item in the July 2021 bank
reconciliation and represents a payment made to a creditor on 2 July 2021.
The cheque has still not been processed by the bank and has since gone stale.
Cheque 5681 relates to a payment made to a creditor on 31 August 2021 that
was cleared by the bank but was not yet reflected in the August bank
statement.
1.6. Unreconcilable difference – all reconciling items have been accounted
for, not sure what this unreconcilable difference is. The next accountant should
please investigate this difference.
1.7. The balance as per the general ledger is a debit closing balance. This is
the balance after all necessary adjustments have been processed in NYX’s
accounting records.

accounting records on that same date. The credit note for these returned
goods were only received from HZO on 8 September 2021.
• Invoice 7823 for a gross amount of R8 100 was included at that price on
the statement without the trade discount incorporated.
NYX is planning on making the payment regarding the balance outstanding for
August 2021 on Monday 6 September 2021 and has historically always settled the
outstanding balance within 10 days of the statement date.
3. Non-current assets
NYX has a variety of non-current assets that are used in the manufacturing of
inventory and for administrative purposes. All items are subsequently measured in
accordance with the cost model and consists of the following items:
Machinery
Machinery consists of the machine that is used to manufacture all of the hygienic
consumable products. The carrying amount of the machine was correctly
determined as R908 000 on 31 August 2021 (after correctly accounting for 2021’s
depreciation). The machine had a remaining useful life of 4 years on this date before
taking the following information into account:
• At year-end the machine was damaged due to an abnormal electric
surge. Management would like to continue using the machine but is also
considering obtaining a new machine. Management estimated that it will be
able to dispose of the damaged machine for R650 000. Costs of R40 000
will have to be incurred in moving this machine from NYX’s premises. It is
estimated that the machine will be able to generate a net cash inflow of
Page 32 of 37
R220 000 per year for the remainder of its useful life and can be disposed of
for R100 000 at the end of its useful life.
Vehicles
Vehicles consists of a delivery truck and a business vehicle and are depreciated
using the straight-line method over 5 years:
• The delivery truck was purchased on 1 June 2019 for R800 000. The
residual value was estimated as R150 000. The delivery truck was disposed
of on 1 July 2021 for R550 000 as NYX decided to rather outsource the
delivery of inventory for economic reasons.
• The business vehicle was bought for R315 000 cash. The business
vehicle is mainly used to assist with transporting some of the workers
between the factory and public transport stations. The vehicle was imported
and import duties amounted to R15 000. Transport costs of R7 000 was
incurred in getting the vehicle to NYX’s premises. Management also paid
R2 000 towards registering the vehicle in NYX’s name. The vehicle was
delivered to NYX’s premises on
1 March 2021 and was available for use from this date going forward.
Management however decided that the vehicle must first be branded with
NYX’s logo for marketing purposes before it will be used. The branding of
the vehicle was finished on 1 April 2021 at a cost of R20 000. The vehicle
was used for the transport of workers from this date going forward.
UVD robot
Management is considering purchasing the UVD robot in light of Covid-19. The UVD
robot retails at a price of R1 200 000. This robot uses UV light to disinfect the
surrounding environment it is placed in. During the 3rd wave of Covid-19 infections,
NYX has been hard hit by many employees being infected and operations being
impacted. Thus management hopes that the UVD robot will assist in managing
infections and outbreaks. The robot can be used for 15 years.
Please note:
• An appropriate discount rate is 11% per annum
• Ignore VAT and any tax consequences
Page 33 of 37
• Show all workings clearly
• Round all amounts to the nearest Rand where applicable
You can assume that the balance as per the general ledger provided
is correct and that all necessary adjusting entries have been
processed correctly by NYX.
(b) Refer to point 2: Calculate the amount to be paid to HZO for August (3)
2021.
(c) With reference to the information under point 3 only, prepare an (14)
extract of the Statement of Profit or Loss of NYX for the year ended 31
August 2021 for ‘other income’ and ‘operating expenses’. Comparative
figures should not be presented in the extract.
(d) Discuss if the UVD Robot can be classified and recognised as (6)
property, plant and equipment by NYX once purchased. You are not
required to discuss the definition of an asset as per the Conceptual
Framework as part of your solution.

as a sole proprietorship by Joseph Ndlovu on 1 July 2018 with a 30 June financial year end.
Espresso machines
Joseph purchased two commercial espresso machines on 1 July 2018 at a cost of R76 500
each. It is estimated that each machine will be used to produce 440 000 espressos over an
estimated period of 10 years. The residual value of each machine was estimated at
R25 000.
• Joseph realised that only one machine is needed and sold espresso machine 1 for
R58 000 on 1 April 2022.
• Espresso machine 2 was serviced at R5 500 on 1 January 2022 which was paid for
in cash. These machines must be routinely serviced every 3 to 4 years to keep it
operating efficiently. During the 2022 financial year Joseph re-estimated that
espresso machine 2 will be used to manufacture 550 000 espressos in total over a
total estimated period of 12 years and the new residual value is Rnil.
The total number of espressos produced by each machine over the years whilst in use by
Deja Brew are:
On 1 June 2021 Joseph contracted a famous street artist to paint a flower mural on the
outside wall of the building. The aim behind the mural is to attract people to Deja Brew to
take selfies in front of it, post it on social media platforms and visit Deja Brew.
The mural was completed on 1 July 2021 at a cost of R150 000. Joseph expects to keep
the mural on the wall until the end of the building’s useful life.
Please note:
• Dates and journal narrations are not required.
(c) Advise Joseph if the costs related to the mural can be classified as (7)
property, plant and equipment and how it should be accounted for in the

company’s manufacturing plant is situated in the industrial area of Longdale, Johannesburg.
Additional Information
For the company to enter the export market additional funding will be required for it to be
competitive and effective to supply the demand overseas. The board of directors have
decided to source funding from the general public by issue of shares.
The following transactions, related to the issue of shares, occurred during the current
financial year ended 30 June 2022:
1. On 1 September 2021, an additional 100 000 Class A shares were offered to the

applicants were refunded their money on 22 September 2021 and the allotment of
shares was finalised for the successful applicants by 30 September 2021.
3. A capitalisation issue was undertaken by Best Pipes on 1 June 2022. Under the
capitalisation issue existing Class A shareholders would receive one share for every
two shares held. The capitalisation was at R10 per share.
4. In order to attract further capital from small investors, 100 000 Class C shares, of R1
each, were offered to the general public on 1 March 2022. The directors were unsure
if all the shares would be taken up and did not want to risk an under-subscription.
Best Pipes Limited entered into a contract with Ensure Bank to underwrite the

19 pandemic, in an outside room at her parents’ house. Lesego sells casual sneakers
(shoes) that are manufactured in Copenhagen, Denmark. Sneakers is a new trend among
teenagers and young adults in South Africa. Lesego’s grandmother is situated in Denmark
and bought a pair of sneakers when she visited in 2019 and thought it would be a good
opportunity to sell to teenagers and young adults. Lesego is also the chairperson of the SA
Youth League and will use this contact to sell the casual sneakers.
She appointed an assistant on 1 November 2021 to assist her with general office work,

QUESTION 1 c)
Discussion question on recognition of subsequent costs incurred related to PPE item and measurement thereof
The mural is a subsequent expenditure incurred related to the building as it occurred after the initial recognition of the building on January 2019. 1
The mural is inseperable from the building and in order for it to be recognised as part of the building, it should meet the recognition criteria of PPE. 1
The recognition criteria for PPE are: (mark for definition)
It is probable that future economic benfits associated with the item will flow to the entity; and 1
the cost of the item can be measured reliably.
It is probable that the mural will attract more people to Deja Brew in the form of people wanting to take pictures in front of it and sharing and posting it on social media
0,5
platforms,
thereby attracting more prospective customers which will increase future economic benefits in the form of sales. 0,5
The cost of the mural reliably measured at R150 000. 1
Conclusion - initial measurement: the cost of the mural can be classified as PPE and R150 000 should be recognised as part of the cost of the building on 1 July 2021. 1
In terms of subsequent measurement, the mural should be depreciated using the straight-line method over the remainder of the building's useful life. 1
The depreciation that should be recognised for the 2022 financial year is: 4 000 (R150 000/37,5 years) 1

1. Vehicles
UM purchased 4 delivery vehicles on 1 January 2019 at a cost of R150 000 each. The
delivery vehicles have a residual value of R75 000 each with a useful life of 6 years.
On 30 June 2021, UM sold one of the delivery vehicles at a profit of R11 250. The
transaction was a cash sale. The profit on the sale of the delivery vehicle has correctly
been included in other income.
2. Machinery and Equipment
In order to meet the increased demand for their products, UM purchased an additional
manufacturing machine on 1 July 2021. The invoice was only paid 30 days after
purchase. Depreciation on the machinery and equipment has correctly been included
in operating expenses.
Page 27 of 47
3. Trade Receivables
The allowance for credit losses increased from R5 000 to R6 500 during the year
(these balances have been closed off to trade receivables). The increase in allowance
for bad debts has correctly been included in operating expenses.
4. Inventory and Trade Payables
Um achieves a consistent 45% gross profit margin.
5. Prepaid Expenses
On 1 July 2021, UM entered into a contract for a 12-month fibre internet connection.
UM paid upfront for the 12 months. Per the contract, the monthly charge is R699. The
internet expense has correctly been included in operating expenses.
6. Mortgage
On 1 January 2021, UM obtained a R1 000 000 mortgage from Nonstandard Bank.
The mortgage bears interest at 12% per annum. The mortgage is repayable in 5 equal
instalments, each due on 31 December (each payment is first allocated towards the
interest, before being allocated to the capital portion). Interest accrued on the loan is
also payable on 31 December every year. There was no other interest expense for the
year, other than the interest incurred on this loan. Interest Expense has been correctly
included in operating expenses.
