Section – A
Answer the following questions.
1. Choose the most appropriate answer from the four alternatives given: (1 Mark for right
choice & 1 Mark for justification): [2x10=20]
(i) C Ltd. offers shares to its employees as bonus for meeting a target. It is a —
A. share based payment transaction
B. equity settled transaction
C. cash settled transaction
D. Both A and B
Answer:
D — Both A and B
It is equity settled share based payment transaction as C issues its own shares against
receiving of services from the employees.
(ii) On January 2, 2017 Abir Ltd. bought a trademark from Rang Ltd. for ` 7,50,000. Abir
Ltd. retained an independent consultant, who estimated the trademark's remaining
life to be 20 years. Its unamortised cost on Rang Ltd. accounting records was
` 5,70,000. Abir Ltd. decided to amortize the trademark over the maximum period
allowed. In Abir's December 31, 2017 balance sheet, what amount should be
reported as accumulated amortization?
A. ` 50,000
B. ` 1,90,000
C. ` 18,000
D. ` 75,000
Answer:
D — `75,000.
As per AS-26 , intangible assets should be measured initially at cost therefore, Abir Ltd.
should amortize the trademark at its cost of ` 7,50,000. The unamortised cost on the
seller's books (`5,70,000) is irrelevant to the buyer. Although the trademark has a
remaining useful life of 20 years, intangible assets are generally amortized over a
maximum period of 10 years per AS-26 . Therefore, the 2017 amortization expense and
accumulated amortization is 75,000 (` 7,50,000 ÷ 10 years).
(iii) Aman Ltd. acquired 3,000 equity shares of Ayan Ltd. on April, 01,2015 for a price of
` 4,50,000. Ayan Ltd. made a net profit of ` 1,20,000 during the year 2015-16. Ayan Ltd.
issued bonus shares of one share for every five shares held out of the post acquisition
profits earned during the year 2015-16. The Share Capital of Ayan Ltd. is ` 3,75,000
consisting of shares of ` 100 each. If the share of Aman Ltd. in the pre-acquisition profit
of Ayan Ltd. is ` 84,000, the amount of Goodwill/Capital Reserve to be shown in the

6. (a) Fresh Ltd. announced a Stock Appreciation Right (SAR) on 01.04.2014 for each of its
employees. The scheme gives the employees the right to claim cash payment
equivalent to an excess of market price of company shares on exercise date over the
exercise price of `125 per share in respect of 100 shares, subject to a condition of
continuous employment of 3 years. The SAR is exercisable after 31.03.2017 but before
30.06.2017.
DoS, The Institute of Cost Accountants of India (Statutory Body under an Act of Parliament) Page 13
Answer to MTP_Final_Syllabus2016_Dec2018_Set1
The fair value of SAR was `21 in 2014-15, `23 2015-16 and `24 in 2016-17. In 2014-15 the
company estimated that 2% of its employees shall leave the company annually. This
was revised to 3% in 2015-16. Actually 15 employees left the company in 2014-15, 10 left
in 2015-16 and 8 left in 2016-17. The SAR therefore actually vested in 492 employees on
30.06.2017; when SAR was exercised the intrinsic value was `25 per share.
Show the provision for SAR account by fair value method. Is this provision a liability or
equity? [8]
Answer:
Note: The Provision for Stock Appreciation Right (SARs) is a liability. Therefore SARs are settled
through cash payment equivalent to an excess of market price of company‟s shares over
the exercise price on exercise date.

Sectors, major heads, minor heads, sub-heads and detailed heads of account. The
method of budgeting and accounting under the service heads is not designed to
bring out the relation in which Government stands to its material assets in use, or its
liabilities due to be discharged at more or less distant dates.
4. Period of Accounts: The annual accounts of the central, state and union territory
government shall record transactions, which take place during financial year running
from 1st April to 31st March.
5. Cash basis of accounting: With the exception of such book adjustments as may be
authorized by these rules on the advice of the Comptroller and Auditor General of
India (C&AG),the transactions in government accounts shall represents the actual
cash receipt and disbursement during a financial year.
6. Form of Accounts: The accounts of Government are kept in three parts namely,
Consolidated Fund, Contingency Fund and Public Account.
(b) Discuss the functions of Comptroller and Auditor General in the case of grants or loans
given to other authorities or bodies. [8]
Answer:
Where any grant or loan is given for any specific purpose from the Consolidated Fund of
India or of any State or of any Union territory having a Legislative Assembly to any
authority or body, not being a foreign State or international organisation, the
Comptroller and Auditor-General shall scrutinise the procedures by which the
sanctioning authority satisfies itself as to the fulfillment of the conditions subject to which
such grants or loans were given. For this purpose the C&AG shall have right of access,
after giving reasonable previous notice, to the books and accounts of that authority or
body.
However, the President, the Governor of a State or the Administrator of a Union territory
having a Legislative Assembly, as the case may be, may, where he is of opinion that it is
necessary so to do in the public interest, by order, relieve the Comptroller and Auditor-
General, after consultation with him, from making any such scrutiny in respect of
anybody or authority receiving such grant or loan.
DoS, The Institute of Cost Accountants of India (Statutory Body under an Act of Parliament) Page 17
Answer to MTP_Final_Syllabus2016_Dec2018_Set1
Comptroller and Auditor-General shall not have, while exercising the powers conferred
on him by sub-section (1), right of access to the books and accounts of any corporation
to which any such grant or loan as is referred to in subsection (1) is given if the law by or
under which such corporation has been established provides for the audit of the
accounts of such corporation by an agency other than the Comptroller and Auditor-
General:
Moreover, such authorisation shall be made except after consultation with the
Comptroller and Auditor General and except after giving the concerned corporation a
reasonable opportunity of making representations with regard to the proposal to give to
the Comptroller and Auditor-General right of access to its books and accounts.
Answer:
XBRL is a language for the electronic communication of business and financial data
which is revolutionising the business reporting around the world. The term XBRL
includes four terminologies – Extensible, Business, Reporting and Language. These
terms are briefly discussed hereunder:
(c) Extensible: This term implies that the user can extend the application of a
particular business data beyond its original intended purpose. The major
advantage in it is that the extended use can be determined even by the users
and not just the ones who merely prepare the business data. This is achieved by
adding tags which are both human and machine readable – describing what
the data is.
(d) Business: This platform is relevant to any type of business transaction. It is to be

Triple bottom line reporting (TBLR) expands the traditional reporting framework to take
into account social and environmental performance in addition to financial
performance. The concept of Triple bottom line reporting states that reporting should
incorporate the social, environmental and financial performance of an organization.
• The first bottom line happens to be the bottom line of the “income statement”
(which is the traditional measure of operating result).
• The second bottom line is that of anorganisation‟s “people account” (a measure
in some shape or form of how socially responsible an organisation has been
throughout its operations); and
• The third bottom line is that of the organisation‟s “planet account” (which
measures how environmentally responsible the company has been).
Thus, only a company that produces a TBL reports is taking account of the full cost
involved in doing business.
