PRIME ACADEMY 35 th SESSION MODEL EXAM - IPCC ADVANCED ACCOUNTING SUGGESTED ANSWERS 1)a) (i) Determination of Nature of Lease It is assumed that the fair value of the leased equipments is equal to the present value of minimum lease payments. Present value of residual value at the end of 3rd year = ` 60,000 x 0.7513 = ` 45,078 Present value of lease payments = ` 6,00,000 ` 45,078= ` 5,54,922 The percentage of present value of lease payments to fair value of the equipment is (` 5,54,922 / ` 6,00,000) x 100 = 92.487%. Since, it substantially covers the major portion of the lease payments, the lease constitutes a finance lease. (ii) Calculation of Unearned Finance Income Annual lease payment = ` 5,54,922 / 2.4868 =` 2,23,147 (approx) Gross investment in the lease = Total minimum lease payment + unguaranteed residual value = (` 2,23,147 3) + ` 60,000 = ` 6,69,441 + ` 60,000 = ` 7,29,441 Unearned finance income = Gross investment - Present value of minimum lease payments and unguaranteed residual value = ` 7,29,441 ` 6,00,000 = ` 1,29,441 b) Date Particulars Debit ` Credit ` 1.4.2010 Employees compensation expense A/c 18,00,000 Dr 18,00,000.

PRIME ACADEMY 35 th SESSION MODEL EXAM - IPCC AUDITING AND ASSURANCE SUGGESTED ANSWERS 1. (a) Relationship between materiality and audit risk: SA 320 on Materiality in Planning and Performing an Audit requires that the auditor should consider materiality and its relationship with audit risk when conducting an audit. Materiality depends on the size and the nature of the items judged in the particular circumstances of its misstatement. The audit should be planned so that audit risk is kept at an acceptably low level. There is an inverse relationship between Materiality and the degree of audit risk. Higher the materiality levels the lower the audit risk and vice-versa. After the auditor has assessed the inherent and control risks, he should consider the level of detection risk that he is prepared to accept and, based upon his judgment, select appropriate substantive audit procedures. If the auditor does not perform any substantive procedures, detection risk, that is, the risk that the auditor will fail to detect a misstatement, will be high. The auditor s assessment of audit risk may change during the course of an audit according to the need and development of the circumstances. (b) Accounting for government grants relating to specific fixed assets: AS 12 (Accounting for Government Grants) lays down the accounting treatment for government grants. Two methods of presentations in financial statements of grants (or the appropriate portions of grants) related to specific fixed assets are regarded as acceptable alternatives. Under one method, the grant is shown as a deduction from the gross value of the asset concerned in arriving at its book value. The grant is thus recognised in the profit and loss statement over the useful life of a depreciable asset by way of a reduced depreciation charge. Where the grant equals the whole, or virtually the whole, of the cost of the asset, the asset is shown in the balance sheet at a nominal value. Under the other method, grants related to depreciable assets are treated as deferred income which is recognised in the profit and loss statement on a systematic and rational basis over the useful life of the asset. Such allocation to income is usually made over the periods and in the proportions in which depreciation on related assets is charged. (c) Sharing of audit working papers: As per SA 230 Audit Documentation, working papers are the property of the auditor. He may at his discretion, make available portions or extracts from his working paper to his client. The auditor should adopt reasonable procedures for custody and confidentiality of his working papers. An auditor is not required to provide the clients or other auditors access to his working papers. Main auditor of the company does not have right of access to the working papers of the branch auditor. In the case of a company, the main auditor has, to consider the report of the branch auditor and has a right to seek clarification and to visit the branch but cannot ask for the copy of working paper and therefore, the branch auditor is under no compulsion to give photocopies of his working paper to the principal auditor. (d) Signing of audit reports: As per section 224(1B) of the Companies Act, no company or its Board of Directors shall appoint/re-appoint any person or firm as its auditor if such person or firm, at the date of such appointment or re-appointment, holding appointment as auditor of specified number of companies or more than the specified number of companies. Specified number of companies shall mean twenty companies of which not more than 10 shall be companies having paid up share capital of `25 lacs or more. As per section 229 of the Companies Act, where a firm has been appointed as auditor of the company, any partner in the firm practising in India, may sign the auditor s report, or sign or authenticate any other document of the company required by law to be signed or authenticated by the auditor. Thus, the ceiling limit prescribed in section 224(1B) is only with regard to appointment of auditors and not for signing the audit reports; In the given case, all 45 audit reports signed by Mr. X are valid. PRIME/ME35/IPCC 3

2. (a) Advantages of Audit to a Sole Trader: Although sole traders are not required by any law (except u/s 44AD, 44AE, 44AB and other provisions of the Income-tax Act, 1961) to have their accounts audited, yet it has become customary for many of them, who derive their large incomes from numerous sources and whose expenditure is vast and varied, to get their accounts audited. Also, sole traders get their financial statements audited due to regulatory requirements, such as stock brokers or on specific instructions of the bank for approval of loans, etc. The sole trader can determine the scope of the audit as well as the conditions under which it will be carried out. For example, he can stipulate that only a partial audit shall be carried out or certain parts of the accounts shall not be checked. It will also be decided that the audit will be carried out continuously or at the end of the year. Thus, the duties and the nature of auditor s work will depend upon the agreement that he has entered into with the sole trader. But he must obtain clear instructions from his clients in writing as to what he is expected to do. The following are some of the advantages that can be derived from an audit of this nature: a. The individual is assured of having his accounts properly maintained and his expenditure vouched. b. He is also assured of not being defrauded by the accountant and his agents. Even if they have done some defalcations, etc. these may be discovered by the auditors. c. The audited accounts are reliable and are generally accepted by the Income tax Department and hence, individuals do not feel any difficulty for taxation assessments, etc. d. The audited accounts of a deceased are very helpful for executors and administrators. (i) Appointment of first auditors of a Government Company: Section 224(5) of the companies Act, 1956 lays down that the first auditor or auditors of a company shall be appointed by the board of directors within one month of the date of registration of the company. Notwithstanding anything contained in section 224(5), in case of Government Company, the appointment or reappointment of auditors is governed by the provisions of section 619 of the Companies Act, 1956 according to which the auditors of a Government Company shall be appointed by the Comptroller and Audit General of India. Hence in the case of M/s health and Wealth Ltd. Being a government company, the first auditor shall be appointed by the CAG of India. The appointment of first auditors made by the Board of Directors of M/s. Health and Wealth Limited is null and void. (ii) Removal of first auditor appointed in the general meeting: As per section 224(5) of the Companies Act, the first auditor or auditors of a company shall be appointed by the Board of Directors within one month from the date of registration of the company, and the auditor or auditor so appointed shall hold office until the conclusion of the first annual general meeting. The auditor or auditors so appointed may be removed by the company at a general meeting. However if the auditor is appointed at the general meeting, the provisions of section 224(7) will become operative. As per section 224(7), any auditor or auditors appointed may be removed from office before the expiry of his term only by the company in general meeting, after obtaining the previous approval of the central government. Thus, the removal of first auditors appointed in the general meeting of X limited is null and void 3. (a) (i) Payment of interest out of capital: Section 208 of the Companies Act, 1956 permits payment of interest to shareholders out of capital, where there is a long gestation period. Payment of interest on capital is, however, capitalised as part of cost of construction of the project.

In the present case, X limited has not declared the dividends so far, only the board proposed to recommend declaration of 10% dividend in AGM but in view of liquidity problem it proposes to defer the payment of dividend by two months from the date of AGM by getting a resolution passed in AGM.

(ii) Utilisation of share premium Sec 78 of the companies Act, 1956 deals with application of premium received on issue of shares. Accordingly, securities premium account may be applied by the company: In paying up unissued shares of the company into be issued to members of the Company as fully paid bonus shares.

Further, section 205 of the companies act, 1956 also specifies the sources from which dividends can be paid and requires the same to be only paid out of past profits, general reserve or any other free reserve. Conclusion: Declaration of dividends out of share premium is not proper and consequently the auditor shall have to qualify the audit report. 6 a) The special steps involved in the audit of an educational institution are the following: a) Examine the Trust Deed or Regulations in the case of school or college and note all the provisions affecting accounts.
