1.2 TAXATION

Since 1 March 2008, the South African normal tax rate for companies has been 28%.
Another tax rate could, however, be used in the study material. Read the questions carefully
and ensure you use the correct tax rates in your answers.

On 1 March 2016, the capital gains tax (CGT) inclusion rate changed from 66.6% to 80%.
As a result, the effective CGT rate increased from 18,648% (66.6% x 28%) to 22.4% (80%
x 28%). In the questions you have to answer, the tax rate will be stated in the additional
information. You must use the tax rate given in the questions to work out their solutions.

CHOICE OF CORRECT PAPER: FAC3762


It is your responsibility to ensure that you receive the correct paper in the examination. If
you are handed the wrong paper, you must immediately request the invigilator to hand you
the correct paper.

FORMAT OF THE EXAMINATION PAPER


The October/November 2020 examination paper will consist of 100 marks and the duration
will be 3 hours.

SUPPLEMENTARY EXAMINATIONS AND RE-MARKING OF SCRIPTS


Take note of the following important information regarding supplementary examinations and
re-marks:
- To qualify for a supplementary examination opportunity, you must obtain a final mark
of 40% - 49% for modules offered by the School of Accounting Sciences (for example
FAC3762).
- The year mark previously obtained will contribute to the final result of students writing
supplementary examinations. It will also contribute in the case of aegrotat (sick)
examinations.

5
FAC3762/108

- Supplementary examinations will be conducted in January/February 2021 for students


who fail the October/November 2020 examination paper and achieve a final mark of
40% - 49% for FAC3762.
- Only those students who obtain a final mark of 35% - 49% or 68% - 74% in a module
may apply for a re-mark of that examination answer book.
- A student will not be entitled to a supplementary examination (if applicable) on the
grounds of a re-mark result.
For more information refer to the general rules for study and examinations in the Study @
Unisa publication.

RE-MARKING OF EXAM SCRIPTS


Students who apply for the re-marking of their scripts should provisionally register for the
module as if they have failed. Registration can be cancelled if the re-mark is successful.
EXAM PREPARATION
Steps to follow when preparing for the exam:
- First read through the theory at the start of each study unit in the study guide, and in
your Group statements textbook, making sure that you understand the principles
involved. You must not read the next sentence unless you understand what you have
just read.
- Work through the illustrative examples that demonstrate the application of the
principles. It is important to work through the examples in the study guide and in the
Group statements textbook. Do not memorise the examples; try to understand why the
specific calculations were done.
- When working through the examples, be aware of the disclosure requirements in terms
of the International Financial Reporting Standards which are required by certain sections
(i.e. statement of cash flows, associates and joint arrangements). Make sure you
understand why they have been disclosed in that specific way. Once you understand,
memorise the disclosure requirements by referring back to the accounting standard
and your study guide.
- Prepare a summary of all the principles relevant to each topic and their accounting
treatment and disclosure.
- The next step is to attempt the integrated questions in this tutorial letter. Answer the
questions without referring to the solution by following the steps prescribed in the next
section - exam technique. Once you have completed an answer, you should compare it
with the suggested solution. If your answer differs from the suggested solution, refer
back to the study guide, the Group statements textbooks and the accounting standard.
If you still don’t understand what has been done in the suggested solution, contact one
of your lecturers.
- Remember, if you don’t understand the principles involved, there will be no advantage
in working through numerous questions. If you understand the principles, working
through one or two questions per scenario should be sufficient.

6
FAC3762/108

- Please do not attempt new questions in the few hours before you write your exam. It will
only confuse and unsettle you if you come across something you cannot do. Remember,
you must be both cognitively and psychologically prepared.
- On the morning of your exam, refresh your memory by reading through the summaries
you have compiled and reciting the disclosure requirements. This will help you to relax
as you will be familiar with the information by then.
EXAM TECHNIQUE
If you apply the correct exam technique, you will be able to complete the answer within the
time frame allowed and your answers will be structured to obtain the marks in the shortest
time possible.
How should you answer a question?
- Read the REQUIRED section first. Make sure that you are clear about what is required
from you. Note that marks will not be awarded if you do not complete what is required.
For example, if you are required to provide only the note to the statement of financial
position, no marks will be awarded for disclosing the statement of financial position
and/or notes to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income (e.g.
profit before tax and current tax notes).
- It is also important that you read what is not required as it wastes time if you prepare
unnecessary workings and disclosure. TIME MANAGEMENT IS VERY IMPORTANT IN
ANY PAPER.
- Start off by writing the layout (wording) of the disclosure. The disclosure will then be a
guide for deciding what calculations to prepare.
- After you have written down the layout (disclosure), start with the calculations. Once you
have done a calculation, immediately transfer the answer to your layout (disclosure).
Don’t wait until all the calculations have been done before transferring the answer. NO
MARKS will be awarded if calculations are not correctly transferred to the required
section!
- It is advisable to show shorter calculations on the face of the statement of profit or loss
and other comprehensive income, statement of financial position or notes (whichever is
required) in brackets next to the disclosure. This will save time and avoid duplication.
Longer calculations which cannot fit into the line next to the disclosure or the next line
must be done on a separate page marked “Calculations”. The figures in the disclosure
should then be cross-referenced to the calculations. NO MARKS will be awarded if
calculations are not correctly transferred to the required section!
- Never exceed the time allocated per question.
- Attempt each question in the paper. Leaving out a question could be the reason you fail.
- When answering an examination paper, it is normally advisable to answer the questions
in the order that they have been given. When an examination paper is prepared, due
care and consideration are given in determining the sequence of the questions. A
question on a topic that you may consider to be easy may in fact be the more difficult
question of the paper and answering it first might cause you to spend too much time on
it or upset you so much that it influences your ability to answer the rest of the paper.
- If in doubt, always go back to the basic principles, especially where two or more topics
are combined.

7
FAC3762/108

- Show all calculations, even if it is as simple as adding two figures together. Marks
cannot be awarded if we cannot see how the amount has been made up.
- Make sure that you transfer the calculated amounts correctly to the disclosure. If the
REQUIRED section stipulates, for instance, that you must prepare the statement of
financial position, then marks will not be awarded for calculations that have not been
transferred to the layout (disclosure). If the REQUIRED section has asked for
calculations, then the calculations will be marked.
- You will only lose marks once for an error. When the figure that you have calculated is
used (even though calculated incorrectly) in other calculations or disclosures, marks will
be awarded if the principle is applied correctly.
PERSEVERE
We would like to encourage you to tackle your studies with enthusiasm. Remember, success
can only be achieved by effort and perseverance.
Every year we find that many students do not turn up at the examination venue. You must
never inflict this disservice on yourself. Remember that if you write, you have a chance; if
you don’t, you have no chance at all.
All the best with your studies!

SUGGESTED SOLUTION 2

PART A

A business combination is a transaction or other event in which an acquirer obtains control


of one or more businesses.

Marshall Ltd meets the definition of a business as it is an integrated set of activities and
assets that are capable of being managed in order to provide a return (e.g. through dividends
or other economic benefits).

On 1 December 2016, Chase Ltd acquired control over Marshall Ltd.

Thus, this transaction meets the definition of a business combination.

The acquisition of the shares in Rubble Ltd does not constitute a business as the acquisition
did not give Chase Ltd control over Rubble Ltd (only significant influence).

UNREALISED PROFIT INCLUDED IN CLOSING INVENTORY


Calculation of unrealised profit on sale of inventory to Chase Ltd:
20% x R450 000 = R90 000 x 25/125 = R18 000
Calculation of the cost price of the inventory for Marshall Ltd:
R90 000 – R18 000 (profit on sale of inventory) = R72 000.
This inventory was written down to net realisable value (NRV) of R76 000 in
the separate financial statements of Chase Ltd. Thus, this inventory is not
measured at R90 000 (cost price for Chase Ltd) in the separate financial
statements of Chase Ltd but at net realisable value of R76 000. In the
consolidated financial statements this inventory should be recognised at the
cost price of the inventory for Marshall Ltd (R72 000) (cost price of inventory
where it first entered the group). Therefore, the unrealised profit recognised
in the group’s financial statements will be limited to R4 000 (R76 000 –
R72 000).

CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF CHANGES IN EQUITY


The total columns are not required in Part B and are therefore not included
in the solution provided. If the consolidated statement of changes in equity
were required without any mention of the total columns, you would have
to provide the total columns (this will include the split between the parent
and NCI).

DIVIDEND PAID IN THE RETAINED EARNINGS


Only include the parent’s dividend paid in the retained earnings column.
Remember that the dividend paid by the subsidiary is eliminated in the
journal entries for intragroup transactions.

R R
Dividend received by Rock Ltd (2 000 x 80%) 1 600

NCI’s SHARE IN THE PROFIT FOR THE YEAR


Only look at the profit of the subsidiary. The non-controlling interests
cannot share in the profit of the parent. Don’t use the consolidated profit
for the year when you calculate NCI’s share in the profit for the year.

PROFIT FOR THE YEAR ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE PARENT


It is important to use the consolidated profit for the year when you calculate
the parent’s share in the profit for the year. Then you will deduct the non-
controlling interests’ share in the profit for the year. Refer to calculation
C3.

INTRAGROUP SALE OF INVENTORY


The elimination of the sale of intragroup inventory will have a zero effect
on the profit for the year line item. You will debit the revenue line item with
R100 000 and you credit the cost of sales line item with R100 000, i.e. +
R100 000 – R100 000 = R0.

The non-controlling interests’ percentage interest here is 20% and not

timing of when the change in degree of control occurred.

FAC3762/108

REALISED TRANSACTION BETWEEN THE INVESTOR AND


ASSOCIATE
Realised intragroup transactions between the associate and the investor
will not be eliminated.
When you apply the equity method in a group, you start with the trial
balance of the investor and then you add the investor’s share in the equity
reserves of the associate since acquisition date to the investment in
associate at cost price in the trial balance of the parent.
The intragroup transactions between the investor and associate cannot be
eliminated because you don’t include the trial balance of the associate in
the group.

DIRECTION OF THE SALE OF INVENTORY IS IMPORTANT


The direction of the sale of inventory between the associate and the
investor is important because it will determine the line items that need to
be adjusted.

THE DIRECTION OF THE TRANSACTION BETWEEN THE INVESTOR


AND JOINT VENTURE IS IMPORTANT
Realised intragroup transactions between the associate and the investor
will not be eliminated.
When you apply the equity method in a group, you start with the trial
balance of the investor and then you add the investor’s share in the equity
reserves of the associate since acquisition date to the investment in
associate at cost price in the trial balance of the parent.
The intragroup transactions between the investor and associate cannot
be eliminated because you don’t include the trial balance of the associate
in the group.

QUESTION 6 (54 marks) (97 minutes)

Arthur Ltd, a company based in Johannesburg, manufactures and sells designer


sunglasses. The founder of the company is Arthur Lubisi, the first African designer to
establish a sunglasses brand that is admired and sold all over the world. Arthur is the chief
executive officer and owns 15% of the issued shares of Arthur Ltd. Arthur Ltd has a 30 June
financial year-end.
Employee benefits
Arthur Ltd has 48 employees. The total gross salaries per month for the financial year ended
30 June 2019 for all 48 employees combined amounted to R1 200 000. No employee left
the employ of Arthur Ltd and no new employees were appointed during the financial year
ended 30 June 2019. Management estimates that the number of employees will remain 48
for the financial year ending 30 June 2020. Arthur Ltd gives annual increases to all its
employees on 1 July of each year, the start of the new financial year. The increase on 1 July
2018 was 6% and the increase on 1 July 2019 was 8%.

The employees contribute 7.5% of their gross salaries to a defined contribution plan and
Arthur Ltd contributes 7.5% of the gross salaries to the defined contribution plan to bring the
total contribution to 15%.

Arthur Ltd pays a bonus to all employees at the end of December each year which is equal
to one month’s salary. At the end of December, each employee receives double their normal
salary due to the salary and the bonus that is paid on the same day.

All employees of Arthur Ltd are entitled to 24 vacation leave days per calendar year. It is the
policy of Arthur Ltd that a maximum of 5 vacation leave days that were not taken by
31 December of each year may be transferred to the next leave cycle. Any unused leave
days exceeding 5 days will be forfeited. Employees are only allowed to have their unused
leave paid out when they resign or retire.

The following unused vacation leave days on 31 December 2018 were transferred to the
next leave cycle:
46
FAC3762/108

 For employees who earn 30% of the gross monthly salaries, 5 days were transferred.
For the period from 1 January 2019 to 30 June 2019, these employees took an average
of 6 days’ vacation leave.
 For employees who earn 20% of the gross monthly salaries, 3 days were transferred.

financial year.

Investment in shares of Polar Ltd

On 1 September 2018, Arthur Ltd acquired 200 000 ordinary shares in Polar Ltd, a company
that makes polarised lenses for sunglasses. On 1 September 2018, Arthur Ltd paid R24 per
share and paid broker’s commission of R40 000. Arthur Ltd made this investment for
strategic purposes as Polar Ltd manufactures the lenses for certain models of Arthur Ltd’s
sunglasses. The investment in Polar Ltd shares represents a 55% investment in Polar Ltd.
Arthur Ltd has control over Polar Ltd as defined in IFRS 10, Consolidated Financial
Statements. On 1 September 2018, Arthur Ltd made the irrevocable election in terms of
IFRS 9, Financial Instruments (paragraph 5.7.5), to measure the investment in shares of
Polar Ltd at fair value through other comprehensive income in Arthur Ltd’s separate
accounting records.

On 15 April 2019, Polar Ltd declared and paid a dividend of R1,80 per share to all ordinary
shareholders. At 30 June 2019, the fair value per share of Polar Ltd amounted to R26,50.

For the financial year ended 30 June 2019, Arthur Ltd acquired polarised lenses at their
market-related (arm’s-length) price of R1 600 000 from Polar Ltd. The lenses were paid for
in cash.

Construction of the new manufacturing machine

On 1 August 2018, Arthur Ltd ordered a new manufacturing machine that is able to print
models of the sunglasses in three dimensions and cast the frames of the sunglasses. The
machine will also be used to polish the frames to the desired finish and fit the lenses to the
sunglasses. The cost of the new manufacturing machine amounted to R9 600 000. The
construction was done by MR Ltd and took 6 months to complete. The new manufacturing
machine meets the definition of a qualifying asset in terms of IAS 23, Borrowing Costs.

Arthur Ltd applied for a loan from Bob Bank on 1 August 2018 to finance the construction of
the new manufacturing machine. James Lubisi, the brother of Arthur Lubisi, is the financial
director of Bob Bank. The loan was approved on 14 August 2018 and Bob Bank advanced
the loan as needed by Arthur Ltd to pay the construction costs. The construction
commenced on 1 September 2018.

Invoice 2 28 February 2019 3 600 000 28 February 2019
9 600 000
The loan from Bob Bank bears interest at a fixed rate of 12% per annum, compounded
annually, starting on 30 September 2019. According to the loan agreement, interest accrued
on the loan until 30 September 2019 will be settled in cash on 30 September 2019. The loan
of R9 600 000 is repayable in four annual instalments of R3 160 651 (capital and interest)
starting on 30 September 2020. The terms of the loan agreement were at arm’s length.

The new manufacturing machine was ready for use on 28 February 2019 and was brought
into use on 1 July 2019. It is the policy of Arthur Ltd to depreciate its new manufacturing
machine using the straight-line method over its expected useful life of 6 years. The new
manufacturing machine has a residual value of R250 000.

SUGGESTED SOLUTION 6

PART A
Capitalisation of borrowing costs should commence when all three of the following
conditions have been met:
1. Expenditure for asset is being incurred, 1 September 2018.
2. Borrowing costs are being incurred, 1 October 2018.
3. Activities to prepare asset for its intended use are in progress from 1 September 2018.
As a result, the borrowing costs can be capitalised from 1 October 2018.
The capitalisation of borrowing costs must cease when substantially all the activities
necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use have been completed or the asset is
ready for use, which is 28 February 2019.

PART B
The loan from Bob Bank meets the definition of a financial liability as it is a contractual
obligation to deliver cash to another entity, being Bob Bank.
Arthur Ltd will only recognise the liability once it becomes party to contractual provisions.
Even though the loan was approved on 14 August 2018, it was only drawn down from 1
October 2018.
The loan (financial liability) will be initially measured at its fair value of R6 000 000 on 1
October 2018.
In terms of IFRS 9, financial liabilities will be classified (and subsequently measured) at
amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

QUESTION 7 (46 marks) (83 minutes)

Eggs Aplenty Ltd is a producer, packager and distributor of organic eggs and has a 30 June
year-end. The company is passionate about delivering quality eggs that are farmed using
environmentally friendly methods. The information below is relevant to the financial year
ended 30 June 2019.
Due to the increased awareness of food safety and criticism of the use of antibiotics and
hormones in food products, the demand for organic eggs has increased. As a result of this
increased demand, Eggs Aplenty Ltd decided to invest in an additional delivery truck for the
distribution and delivery of eggs to different retailers.
Since Eggs Aplenty Ltd could not afford to purchase a new delivery truck in cash,
negotiations were entered into with Balemi Ltd, a neighbouring milk distributor, who had
extra delivery trucks.
On 1 October 2018, Eggs Aplenty Ltd entered into a 4-year lease agreement with
Balemi Ltd, whereby Eggs Aplenty Ltd would lease one of Balemi Ltd’s trucks. The lease
agreement contains a lease in terms of IFRS 16, Leases. The specific truck to be leased by
Eggs Aplenty Ltd from Balemi Ltd had a cash price (fair value) of R1 200 000 and a
remaining useful life of 4 years, as at 1 October 2018.
The truck had originally been purchased by Balemi Ltd on 1 October 2014 at a cost of
R2 290 000, with a total useful life of 8 years and a residual value of Rnil. The useful life and
residual value of the delivery truck remained unchanged and Eggs Aplenty Ltd agreed with
these estimates. Balemi Ltd has a 30 June year-end.
The lease agreement was signed, and the delivery truck was delivered to Eggs Aplenty Ltd
on 1 October 2018. It was ready for use on the same date. Eggs Aplenty Ltd incurred and
paid legal fees of R25 000 relating to the drafting of the lease agreement. In terms of the 4-
year lease agreement, Eggs Aplenty Ltd would be required to make 8 bi-annual payments
of R195 000 each, with the first payment being due on 31 March 2019. At the end of the
lease term, Eggs Aplenty Ltd will acquire legal ownership of the delivery truck subject to the
payment of the residual value guaranteed of R146 974.

QUESTION 7.2

QUESTION 8 (50 marks) (90 minutes)

Dance Ltd is an international dance company based in Johannesburg. The company has
a 31 December financial year-end. During the financial year that ended
31 December 2018, Dance Ltd secured a contract to teach various dancing styles to
school children who attend school within the Loro School Group.
The contract with the Loro School Group was signed on 1 May 2018 and dance lessons
started on 1 June 2018. To fulfil the requirements of the contract, three new dance
instructors were employed.
Dance Ltd entered into a lease agreement to lease three motor vehicles from
KL Costumes Ltd for the three new dance instructors. (KL Costumes Ltd no longer had a
use for the three motor vehicles.) KL Costumes Ltd is a company owned by Mrs Martin,
who is also the majority shareholder of Dance Ltd. The lease of the three motor vehicles
contains a lease as defined in terms of IFRS 16, Leases.
The lease agreement contains the following information:

Fair value of the three motor vehicles on 1 June 2018


(R160 000 x 3) R480 000
Effective date of agreement 1 June 2018
Lease term 4 years
Payment intervals starting on 31 May 2019 Annually in arrears
Instalment per annum R150 000

At the end of the lease term, ownership of the three motor vehicles will be transferred to
Dance Ltd. Legal fees of R4 500 were incurred by Dance Ltd when negotiating the lease
transaction. KL Costumes Ltd paid a commission fee of R6 000 to an agent to enter into
the lease agreement. The lease agreement had been entered into at arm’s length.

KL Costumes Ltd originally purchased the three motor vehicles on 1 June 2016 at a total
cost of R900 000 (R300 000 x 3). On this date, KL Costumes Ltd estimated the total
residual value of the three motor vehicles to be R60 000 (R20 000 x 3). KL Costumes Ltd
provides for depreciation on motor vehicles using the straight-line method over the useful
life of 6 years.

Dance Ltd provides for depreciation on motor vehicles using the straight-line method over
the useful life of the asset. On 1 June 2018, Dance Ltd estimated the remaining useful life
of the three motor vehicles to be 5 years with an estimated residual value of Rnil for each
motor vehicle.

The accounting profit before tax of Dance Ltd for the financial year ended
31 December 2018 after taking all the above transactions into account amounted to
R1 080 000. The current tax expense of Dance Ltd was R186 452, after taking all the
above transactions into account.

KL Costumes Ltd also has a 31 December year-end. The accounting profit before tax of
KL Costumes Ltd for the financial year ended 31 December 2018 after taking all the above
transactions into account amounted to R855 000. The current tax expense of
KL Costumes Ltd was R235 712, after taking all the above transactions into account.

57
FAC3762/108

The SA normal income tax rate is 28%. The South African Revenue Service allows a tax
deduction over five years on motor vehicles using the straight-line method, apportioned
for part of a year. The balance for deferred tax as at 1 January 2018 for Dance Ltd was
Rnil and for KL Costumes Ltd was R17 733 (deferred tax liability). Both Dance Ltd and
KL Costumes Ltd had no non-taxable and non-deductible items for tax purposes for the
financial year ended 31 December 2018.

QUESTION 9 (24 marks) (43 minutes)

Storage Solutions Ltd is a company based in Gauteng that rents storage space to
companies and individuals. Storage Solutions Ltd has a 31 March financial year-end. The
company decided to expand its business by constructing a new storage facility in Umhlanga,
KwaZulu-Natal. The new storage facility is a qualifying asset as defined in IAS 23, Borrowing
Costs.
Storage Solutions Ltd purchased land in Umhlanga on 1 April 2017 for R2 000 000 cash and
began designing the new storage facility which would be built on the land. The estimated
construction costs of the storage facility amounted to R3 900 000.
The construction costs were funded with a loan from VV Bank. The loan agreement with
VV Bank was concluded on 1 May 2017 with the following terms and conditions:
 The land in Umhlanga and the new storage facility will serve as security to VV Bank
until the loan and interest have been repaid in full.
 The loan amount of R3 900 000 will be advanced in progress payments during the
construction period.
 The loan bears interest at 13% per annum. The interest on the loan will be
compounded annually starting on 31 December 2017.
 The loan and interest will be repaid in full with one instalment on 30 April 2020.
The construction of the storage facility commenced on 1 June 2017 and the storage facility
was ready for use on 28 February 2018. Storage Solutions Ltd decided that the new storage
facility will only be rented out from 1 April 2018.
VV Bank paid the following invoices on behalf of Storage Solutions Ltd during the
construction period:
Invoice Date of payment Amount
R
Invoice 1 1 June 2017 600 000
Invoice 2 30 September 2017 1 800 000
Invoice 3 28 February 2018 1 500 000
3 900 000

Storage Solutions Ltd’s accounting policy is to depreciate assets over their estimated useful
life. The estimated useful life of the new storage facility is 10 years and the estimated
residual value is R800 000.

Employee benefits
The gross salaries per month for all the employees of Storage Solutions Ltd for the financial
year ended 31 March 2018 were as follows:
Employees Gross salaries per month
Directors and managers 180 000
Sales representatives 175 000
Storage personnel
Packers 115 000
Security guards (up to 30 September 2017) 60 000

64
FAC3762/108

All employees received a salary increase of 5% on 1 April 2017 which is included in the
amounts reflected in the table above. A salary increase of 6% will take effect on 1 April 2018.
Storage Solutions Ltd decided to outsource its security service to FDP Security Ltd and as
a result the services of the security guards were no longer required. All the security guards
were retrenched on 1 October 2017 and received two months’ salary as a retrenchment
package.
It is the policy of Storage Solutions Ltd to pay a bonus to all its employees on 30 November,
equal to the gross salary of November. Employees who resign before 30 November forfeit
the bonus payable on 30 November. Bonuses were duly paid on 30 November 2017.
All the employees are entitled to 24 vacation leave days per calendar year (1 January to
31 December). No employees took any leave from 1 January 2018 until 31 March 2018.
Leave not taken during a leave cycle, limited to five days, may be transferred to the next
leave cycle to be used within the next six months. The average number of unused leave
days as at 31 December 2017 was two days per employee. At 31 March 2018, it is estimated
that all the unused leave days will be utilised by the employees.
Leave days are only paid out when employees resign and an amount of R14 300 was paid
to the security guards that were retrenched on 1 October 2017. There are 252 working days
in a financial year. The leave accrual as at 31 March 2017 amounted to R158 200.

QUESTION 10 (26 marks) (47 minutes)

Investco Ltd is a company that sells online and paper magazines and has a 31 December
financial year-end.

Investment in Tego Ltd debentures

On 1 January 2018, Investco Ltd purchased 10 000 12% debentures in Tego Ltd at their
fair value of R550 per debenture. The coupon interest on the debentures is payable on
31 December of each year. The debentures were originally issued by Tego Ltd on
1 January 2016 at their face value of R600 each. The principal amount is mandatorily
redeemable on 31 December 2022 at face value and as a result, the future cash flows
pertaining to the debentures are solely interest and capital.

On 1 January 2018, Investco Ltd paid transaction costs amounting to R150 000 to
conclude the investment in the debentures of Tego Ltd.

The investment in the debentures of Tego Ltd is held within a business model whose
objective is to collect contractual cash flows of interest and principal on specified dates.
Investco Ltd’s chief financial officer is of the opinion that the debentures should be
classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss since the value of the
debentures is expected to increase over time.

Investment in Yellow Star Ltd shares

On 1 July 2018, Investco Ltd acquired 2 000 shares in Yellow Star Ltd at a price of R12
per share. The investment in Yellow Star Ltd represents 2% of the issued shares of
Yellow Star Ltd. On the same day, Investco Ltd paid transaction costs of R0,20 per share
to acquire the shares in Yellow Star Ltd. On 31 December 2018, the market value of one
Yellow Star Ltd share amounted to R13,50.

Trade receivables

Investco Ltd uses the simplified approach when assessing expected credit losses. At
reporting date, Investco Ltd’s trade receivables amounted to R6 600 000. Trade receivables
do not include a significant financing component.

receivables will be as follows:

SUGGESTED SOLUTION 10

PART A
The investment in debentures of Tego Ltd meets the definition of a financial asset as it
provides Investco Ltd with the contractual right to receive cash from Tego Ltd.

In terms of IFRS 9 par 4.1.1, financial assets must be classified and subsequently measured
on the basis of the entity’s business model for managing the financial asset and the
contractual/cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.

A financial asset must be measured at amortised cost if both of the following conditions are
met (IFRS 9.4.1.2):
a) The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to
collect contractual cash flows.
b) The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows
that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

The debentures are held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order
to collect contractual cash flows; as a result, the first condition is met.
The cash flows are made up of interest and principal only at specified dates; as a result, the
second condition is also met.

Conclusion
The investment should be classified as a financial asset subsequently measured at
amortised cost as both the conditions are met (IFRS 9 par. 4.1.2).

As a result, I do not agree with the chief financial officer’s opinion with regard to the
classification and subsequent measurement of the investment in debentures.
