INFORMATION
For
the year ended 30 June 2012:
1.
On
1 July 2011 Harbour Ltd created a group entity when it purchased 80% of the
issued capital of Bridge Ltd for $440,000 cash. On acquisition Bridge Ltd’s accounts
showed: Share capital $300,000 and Retained earnings $125,000. All assets and
liabilities appearing in Bridge Ltd’s financial statements were fairly valued,
except:
·
An
item of Bridge Ltd’s plant, that had originally cost $157,000 and had a
carrying value of $100,480, was undervalued by $30,000. The plant was still on
hand at 30 June 2014.
·
Bridge
Ltd had an internally developed identifiable intangible asset, a patent, with a
fair value of $35,000.
During
the year Bridge Ltd made sales of inventory to Harbour Ltd of $70,200. Harbour
Ltd’s closing inventories on 30 June 2012 included $33,600 bought from Bridge
Ltd (which included the intragroup mark-up on original cost price).

For
the year ended 30 June 2013:
2.
On
1 January 2013 it was decided that goodwill acquired in Bridge Ltd should be
marked down at a rate of 10% per annum from this date forward (% based on the
original value you calculated at acquisition).
3.
Also
on 1 January 2013 Harbour Ltd sold plant to Bridge Ltd for $35,000. This was
financed by a short-term interest-free loan from Harbour Ltd. The plant had
originally cost $82,000 when purchased on 1 January 2010.
Harbour Ltd declared and paid
dividends of $50,000 for the year. Bridge Ltd did not declare or pay any
dividends for the year.

For
the year ended 30 June 2014:
4.
During
the year Bridge Ltd made sales of inventory to Harbour Ltd of $88,100.
5.
Harbour
Ltd’sinventories included the following amounts bought from Bridge Ltd
(which included the intragroup mark-up on original cost price): Closing
inventory on 30 June 2014 was $13,300; and Opening inventory on 1 July 2013 was
$9,100.
6.
Harbour Ltd charged management fees to Bridge Ltd.
7.
Dividends were declared/paid by both companies.
8.
Non-controlling interests to be recognized.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
·
The
company tax rate is currently 30% and it has been this rate for many years.
·
Harbour
has the following accounting policies for the group:
(i) Revaluation adjustments on
acquisition are to be made on consolidation only, not in the books of any subsidiary;
(ii)
Non-controlling interests are measured at the proportionate share of a
subsidiary’s identifiable net assets;
(iii) Intragroup
sales of inventory to be at a markup of 40% on cost;
(iv)
Plant is depreciated using the diminishing value method at a rate of 20% p.a.
(also known as the declining-balance
or diminishing-balance method); and
(v) All calculated amounts
to be rounded to the nearest whole dollar.

NOTE:
·
You
MUST number your journal entries as they relate to the point numbers for
each “event” as given in the information. Where more than one journal is needed
for an “event” to be completely accounted for add the letters a,b,c,…etc to
them as necessary. [For example, if three separate journal entries are required
to fully record the information detailed in point number 1, then the first
journal will be 1a and the second is to be 1b and the third 1c.] Short
narrations are expected for each journal entry. Marks will be lost if journals
are not presented in a clear and professional manner (i.e. poor or unclear presentation
can include showing the debit entry on one page but the credit entry on another,
or not clearly distinguishing between debit and credit entries).
·
The
required statements for both the group and the parent company are: the
statement of comprehensive income, statement of financial position, and statement
of changes in equity. Notes to the statements are not required. Marks will be
lost if statements are not presented in a clear and professional manner (i.e.
poor or unclear presentation can include splitting the reports over two pages,
so start each statement on a new page!).
·
You
may “cut and paste” the financial information on
the next page into your excel file, but
no other information is to be copied into your file from anywhere else.
·
You are expected to use at least the basic formula functions
in Excel when preparing worksheets and financial statements (i.e. use Excel formulas
to add totals and sub-totals etc, rather than calculating values manually and
then just typing them in to the
spreadsheet!).
