Examinees would be at liberty to use the language of either (i) I.A.S.’s, (ii) the Companies (Amendment) Act 1986 and F.R.S.’s/S.S.A.P’s in answering questions relating to non‐ public companies. Advanced Financial Accounting Sample Paper 2 Page 13 of 27 Solution to question 1 (a) What are Accounting Standards and describe the objectives of these standards. Accounting standards are a set of rules that describe how an item in financial accounting is treated and calculated and how accounts should be prepared and presented. The objective of accounting standards is to regulate the accounting profession and to provide guidance to both accounting practitioners and users of financial information about how contentious and difficult areas should be treated. Accounting standards are issued by a national or international body of the accounting profession and are intended to apply to all financial accounts which are intended to give a true and fair view of the financial position and profit/loss of an entity. Standards are detailed working regulations within the framework of government legislation and they cover areas in which the law is silent. (b) Standard setting process The standard setting process involves six steps and a consultation process which involves interested parties and organisations from around the world. The six steps are discussed below: 1. Setting the agenda This step in the process involves deciding on what area in financial accounting needs to be addressed through a standard. When deciding if an item should be added to the agenda the IASB considers the following factors: i. the relevance of the information to users ii. the reliability of the information which would be provided iii. existing guidance in the area iv. whether the new item increases the possibility of convergence and resource constraints. 2. Planning the project Once an item has been added to the agenda the next decision to be made is whether the IASB should undertake the project alone or in conjunction with another body such as the ASB in Ireland or the UK. Once this has been determined a project team is assembled. 3. Developing and publishing the discussion paper The purpose of a discussion paper is to solicit early comment from interested parties in an effort to ensure all issues are identified and discussed. A discussion paper will usually contain the following elements: i. ii. iii. iv. a detailed overview of the issue stating why a standard is required in this area different potential approaches for dealing with the issue preliminary views of the IASB on dealing with the issue, and an invitation to comment on the issue. Advanced Financial Accounting Sample Paper 2 Page 14 of 27 4. Developing and publishing the exposure draft Once the IASB has received and discussed all comments received a draft standard is prepared detailing a specific proposal for dealing with the issue. The draft standard is then issued to interest parties for consideration and comment. 5. Developing and publishing the standard Once the exposure draft has been issued comments will be received by the IASB on the proposed treatment. The IASB may then decide that it is satisfied with the proposed treatment and a draft IFRS is drawn up. This draft IFRS is referred to as a pre‐ballot draft. The pre‐ballot draft is normally subjected to external review which is usually undertaken by IFRIC. IASB members are then balloted and if the ballot is in favour of the publication of the standard then the IFRS is issued. Where the IASB is not satisfied that it is in a position to agree on the proposed treatment then a second exposure draft may be issued suggesting a revised treatment of the item in question. 6. After the standard is issued The process is not complete once the standard is issued. At this stage the IASB hold further meetings with interested parties in order to understand any unanticipated issues relating to the practical application of the standard. Transparency within the process As can be seen from the above discussion throughout the process public consultation is either invited or considered. It is not possible for an accounting standard to be issued without taking on board comments from interested parties. This avoids the situation whereby the process becomes a pure academic exercise and ensures that the practical application is considered, understood and provided for.

Accountant XX/MM/YY Accounting treatment of government grants A. Accounting treatment The grants which have been approved for the new production facility fall into two distinct categories: 1. 2. Revenue based grant – the grant for training costs Capital based grant – the grant for plant The above two grants are treated differently for accounting purposes. IAS 20 provides that: (i) (ii) Revenue based grants are to be credited to revenue in the period in which the related revenue expenditure has been incurred and, where actual amounts are not known for certain, appropriate estimates must be made; and Capital based grants on the other hand are to be credited to revenue over the life of the related non‐current asset by either: i. Reducing the cost of the asset by the full amount of the grants; or ii. Treating the amount of the grant as deferred credit, a portion of which is transferred to revenue annually. Where this method is used the amount of the deferred credit, if material, should be shown separately in the statement of financial position and separate from shareholders’ funds. Where there is a contingent liability to repay any grants received this must be disclosed by way of note to the accounts. B. Recommendations As far as the company is concerned, I recommend that the following accounting policies be adopted: Training grants – these grants be credited to revenue as they are due; and Grants on plant – these grants be treated as deferred credits and disclosed separately in the statement of financial position under the heading ‘Government Grants’ and allocated to the statement of comprehensive income over the life of the asset using the same rates of depreciation as applied to the relevant assets. C. Accounting policies The notes to the accounts of CARTER Limited should include the following: (i) Grants receivable on additions to non‐current assets are credited to the Government Grants Account and are allocated to the statement of comprehensive income over the estimated useful lives of the assets concerned. Revenue based grants are credited directly to the statement of comprehensive income in the year in which they become due.
