purposes if, and only if, it is also appropriate to anticipate or defer that type of cost at the
end of the financial year.

(a) The bonus is a legal obligation or past practice would make the bonus a constructive
obligation for which the entity has no realistic alternative but to make the payments and

This is the amount that should appear in the statement of cash Rows. of U Ltd. as this is the share of LP

The entity assesses the goods and services promised to the customer to determine which goods and
services are distinct. The entity observes that the software is delivered before the other goods and
services and remains functional without the updates and the technical support, Thus, the entity concludes
that the customer can benefit from each of the goods and services either on their own or together with
the other goods and services that are readily available.
The entity also considers the factors of Ind AS 115 and determines that the promise to transfer each
goods and service to the customer is separately identifiable from each of the other promises. In particular,
the entity observes that the installation service does not significantly modify or customise the software
itself and, as such, the software and the installation service are separate outputs promised by the entity
instead of inputs used to produce a combined output_
On the basis of this assessment, the entity identifies four performance obligations in the contract for the

2. Option (d): Trade discount, cash discount and value of voucher shall be reduced from revenue
Reason
Discounts and vouchers are incentives given to customers. For Incentives, Ind AS 115, states that
consideration payable to a customer includes cash amounts that an entity pays, or expects to pay, to the
customer (or to other parties that purchase the entity’s goods or services from the customer).
Consideration payable to a customer also includes credit or other items (for example, a coupon or voucher)
that can be applied against amounts owed to the entity (or to other parties that purchase the entity’s goods
or services from the customer). An entity shall account for consideration payable to a customer as a
reduction of the transaction price and, therefore, of revenue.
Therefore, cash incentives (payments given to the customer) would be considered as a reduction in the
transaction price and in the measurement of revenue when the goods are delivered.
3. Option (c): A proportion of ₹ 1,58,419 shall be reduced from equity and balance of ₹ 41,581 shall be
recognised as interest cover over the period of 4 years using effective interest method
Reason
Compulsory convertible debentures with annual interest payout is a compound financial instrument. As per
the information given in the question the liability element to be initially recognised is ₹ 20,79,063. Hence the
equity element would be ₹ 79,20,937 (1,00,00,000 – 20,79,063). Transaction cost of ₹ 2,00,000 will be
apportioned in equity and liability component in the ratio of 79,20,937 : 20,79,063, which would be as follows:
Transaction cost attributable to equity = 2,00,000 x (79,20,937 / 1,00,00,000) = ₹ 1,58,419
Transaction cost attributable to liability = 2,00,000 x (20,79,063 / 1,00,00,000) = ₹ 41,581
4. Option (d): HSL has an option to measure all such investments either at cost or in accordance with Ind AS
109. The option is available for each category of investments separately (i.e. subsidiaries, associates and joint
venture)
Reason
As per Ind AS 27, when an entity prepares separate financial statements, it shall account for investments in
subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates either: (a) at cost, or (b) in accordance with Ind AS 109. The entity
shall apply the same accounting for each category of investments.
In the present case, investment in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are considered to be different
categories of investments. Further, Ind AS 27 requires accounting for the investment in subsidiaries, joint
ventures and associates either at cost, or in accordance with Ind AS 109 for each category of Investment.
Thus, an entity can carry its investments in subsidiaries at cost and its investments in associates or joint
ventures as financial assets in accordance with Ind AS 109 in its separate financial statements.
