Semester 1 2024
5.13 Kookaburra Ltd is always running short of cash, despite growing sales volumes
and its current assets exceeding its current liabilities. A review of its operations
by a consultant finds that a considerable portion of the company’s inventory is
obsolete stock for which there is limited demand. Further, many of the accounts
receivable are overdue by more than 60 days. The accounts receivable and
inventory are carried at their gross amount and cost value, respectively, on the
statement of financial position. Explain how the accounts receivable and
inventory should be valued on the statement of financial position. If Kookaburra
Ltd was to apply the correct measurement basis, determine the effect on: (1)
profit; and (2) assets.
5.38

website to access their latest annual report. From the company’s statement of
financial position, identify the:
a. company’s total assets
b. percentage of total assets that are: i. current assets
ii. non-current assets
c. company’s total liabilities
d. percentage of total liabilities that are: i. current liabilities
ii. non-current liabilities
e. company’s liquidity, by comparing the current assets and current liabilities
amounts
f. company’s financing of its assets, by comparing the total liabilities to total
equity.

5.40 Measurement of assets Telstra’s financial report notes that property, plant and equipment is recorded
at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Discuss the usefulness of measuring assets such as PPE at cost less accumulated
depreciation and impairment. Explain why an entity may elect to measure
property at cost in the statement of financial position and disclose its fair value.
What Telstra PPE has been written down due to impairment charges in the last
two years?
5.51 Assigning a cost to inventory
As a trainee accountant, you have been asked to determine the monetary value
that should be assigned to the inventory of sporting equipment on hand as at the
end of the financial year for Outdoor Adventures Ltd. You are currently looking
at stocks of a training shoe that is very popular. The number of pairs of shoes on
hand at the start of the accounting period was 200, and these had a monetary
value of $10 000 assigned to them. During the year, a further 1500 pairs of the
training shoe were purchased and, at the end of the year, a stocktake revealed
that there were 60 pairs unsold. The purchases were made throughout the year.
Five hundred pairs of shoes were purchased at a unit price of $60, a further 500
pairs of shoes at a unit price of $65 and a further 500 pairs at a price of $63. Required
a. Differentiate the cost assigned to inventory of raining shoes using the (1) FIFO and (2) weighted-average cost assignment methods.
b.
LIFO is a permitted cost assignment method in the US but is not permitted under IFRSs. Compare the effect on assets and profits if LIFO was used rather than FIFO in times of rising cost prices.

Accounting
Several of Kimper Corporation's major customers experienced cash flow problems in 2020, mainly due to their increasing labour and production costs in 2019 and 2020. As a result, Kimper's accounts receivable turnover ratio (net sales revenue/average trade receivables [net]) decreased significantly in 2020. However, Kimper believes that its customers' cash flow problems are temporary. In estimating uncollectible accounts receivable as at December 31, 2020, Kimper decreased the estimated percentage of its outstanding accounts receivable that will become uncollectible. (A lower percentage was applied in 2020 than was applied in the previous five years.) Kimper's bad debt expense as a percentage of sales for the year ended December 31, 2020, was lower than the percentage reported in the previous five years, and no additional note disclosure regarding potentially higher risk of uncollectible accounts was reported. Based only on the information…

INTRODUCTION
Bryce Commings was assistant controller for Waterton Company, and his responsibilities included bank relations, accounts receivable collection, and cash management. From his business readings he was aware that many wall street economists were forecasting a recession for late 2019 into middle 2020. He remembered that in the last recession Waterton was criticized for weakened liquidity as shown on its balance sheet.
He ran a simulation with improved accounts receivable and inventory turnovers, Bryce was disappointed with the overall liquidity picture. He was concerned that he was missing something. Maybe he did not understand the relationships among the liquidity measures or maybe he had an error in his worksheet or maybe financial relationships had changed in the past ten years. He assumed if cash came in faster with better collections and more efficient inventory control, liquidity metrics would improve. The eight conventional liquidity measures were current ratio,…
