Total current assets 18,000 8,000
Total assets 57,400 35,800

Additional relevant information:
i) Kingdom Ltd acquired 60% of the share capital of Paradise Ltd on 1 April 2019. The purchase consideration was settled by a share exchange transaction of two shares in Kingdom Ltd for every three acquired shares in Paradise Ltd. The share price of Kingdom Ltd at the acquisition date was GH¢3 per share. In addition, Kingdom Ltd will also pay cash consideration of GH¢0.275 on 1 April 2020 for each acquired share in Paradise Ltd. Kingdom Ltd’s cost of capital is 10% per annum. None of the consideration has been recorded by Kingdom Ltd.

ii) The fair values of Paradise Ltd’s net assets and liabilities were equal to their carrying amounts at the date of acquisition with the exception of Paradise’s property, which had a fair value of GH¢8 million above its carrying amount. For the purpose of consolidation, this led to an increase in depreciation charges (in cost of sales) of GH¢200,000 in the post-acquisition period to 31 December 2019. Paradise Ltd has not incorporated the fair value of property increase into its entity’s financial statements.

iii) The policy of Kingdom Ltd group is to value all properties to fair value at each year end. On 31 December 2019, the increase in Kingdom Ltd’s property has already been recorded. However, a further increase of GH¢1.2 million in the value of Paradise Ltd’s property since its value at acquisition to 31 December 2019 has not yet been recorded.

iv) Kingdom Ltd made sales to Paradise Ltd throughout the year 2019 and it had consistently been GH¢600,000 per month. Kingdom Ltd made a mark-up of 25% on all of these sales. A total of GH¢1.2 million (at cost to Paradise) of Paradise Ltd’s inventory at 31 December 2019 had been supplied by Kingdom Ltd during the post-acquisition period.

v) At 31 December 2019, Kingdom Ltd had a trade receivable balance owing from Paradise Ltd of GH¢2.4 million. However, this did not agree to the equivalent trade payable of Paradise Ltd as a result of a payment by Paradise Ltd of GH¢800,000 made in December 2019, which did not reflect in Kingdom Ltd’s bank account until 4 January 2020. Kingdom Ltd’s policy for cash timing differences is to adjust the parent’s financial statements.

vi) Kingdom Ltd on December 2019, accepted a GH¢1 million 10% loan note from Paradise Ltd.

vii) At 31 December 2019, the goodwill that arose on acquisition was impaired by GH¢1 million. Kingdom Ltd has a policy of treating goodwill impairment as part of administrative expense.

viii) It is the policy of Kingdom Ltd group to value the non-controlling interest at fair value. For this purpose, Paradise Ltd’s share price was trading at GH¢2.50 each at the acquisition date.

ix) Assume that all items of income and expenditure accrue evenly throughout the year except where indicated otherwise.

Required:
a) Prepare the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for Kingdom Ltd group for the year ended 31 December 2019. (10 marks)

Total equity and liabilities 2,400 1,000 500

Additional information:

i) On 1 January 2018, Labone acquired 80% of the equity share capital of Nungua for cash consideration of GH¢560 million. At the same date, Labone acquired 70% of the equity share capital of Teshie for cash consideration. Labone has correctly recorded both transactions. At this time, the balances on the retained earnings, the fair values of non-controlling interests, and fair values of the identifiable net assets of Nungua and Teshie were as follows:

Nungua Teshie
Retained earnings GH¢300 million GH¢120 million
Fair value of non-controlling interests GH¢140 million GH¢80 million
Fair value of net assets GH¢640 million GH¢310 million

Any difference between the acquisition date fair value and book value of the identifiable net assets of both investees was due to land. Fair value adjustments should be deemed as temporary differences which are subject to tax of 20%. The fair values of identifiable net assets above are not yet adjusted for tax. Shortly after acquisition, Teshie incorporated the fair values (together with any tax effects) into its separate financial statements, but Nungua had not yet incorporated the fair values into its separate financial statements.

ii) On 1 October 2021, Labone disposed of 40% out of the 70% equity shares of Teshie for GH¢220 million. Labone credited the proceeds received to its “Investment in Teshie” and debited “Cash.” At this time, it was determined that the fair value of the remaining interest was GH¢180 million. Following the sale, Labone could only exert significant influence over Teshie.

iii) During the financial year, Labone transferred goods worth GH¢5 million every month to Teshie. By 31 December 2021, Teshie had not sold the last two months’ deliveries and had included them in its year-end inventory. Labone charges three-seventh (3/7) mark-up on all sales.

iv) Labone’s receivable balance includes GH¢12 million owed by Teshie in respect of the last three months’ sales. This balance agreed with the corresponding payables in Teshie’s financial statements.

v) In its separate financial statements, Labone has accounted for its investments in both Nungua and Teshie at cost. It is the policy of Labone group to measure goodwill in full and to record non-controlling interests at fair value at acquisition. Neither goodwill of Nungua nor that of Teshie has suffered any impairment since acquisition.

vi) Labone has two internal business segments: Construction Division and Merchandise Division. On 1 July 2021, the Construction Division entered into a 1-year fixed price contract to construct an ultra-modern office complex at a contract sum of GH¢60 million for a district government agency located in the Eastern zone of Ghana. Total estimated costs at the time the contract was concluded were GH¢52 million. Actual costs incurred up to 31 December 2021 amounted to GH¢32 million. At 31 December 2021, the Directors of Labone revised its total construction costs on the project to GH¢64 million. No progress payments have been received from the agency. The only entries made have been to include the costs incurred in Labone’s inventory. Labone measures progress to completion on the basis of cost.

vii) During the current year, Nungua and Teshie reported profits after tax of GH¢48 million and GH¢40 million respectively. Unless otherwise stated, it may be assumed that profits accrued evenly over the year and that no dividends were paid during the year.

(Note: Deferred tax adjustment should be ignored, unless otherwise indicated.)

Assets
Non-current assets:
Property, plant, and equipment (PPE) 37,400 27,800

Trade receivables 9,400 5,000
Bank 0 600
Total current assets 18,000 8,000
Total assets 57,400 35,800

Additional relevant information:
i) Kingdom Ltd acquired 60% of the share capital of Paradise Ltd on 1 April 2019. The purchase consideration was settled by a share exchange transaction of two shares in Kingdom Ltd for every three acquired shares in Paradise Ltd. The share price of Kingdom Ltd at the acquisition date was GH¢3 per share. In addition, Kingdom Ltd will also pay cash consideration of GH¢0.275 on 1 April 2020 for each acquired share in Paradise Ltd. Kingdom Ltd’s cost of capital is 10% per annum. None of the consideration has been recorded by Kingdom Ltd.

ii) The fair values of Paradise Ltd’s net assets and liabilities were equal to their carrying amounts at the date of acquisition with the exception of Paradise’s property, which had a fair value of GH¢8 million above its carrying amount. For the purpose of consolidation, this led to an increase in depreciation charges (in cost of sales) of GH¢200,000 in the post-acquisition period to 31 December 2019. Paradise Ltd has not incorporated the fair value of property increase into its entity’s financial statements.

iii) The policy of Kingdom Ltd group is to value all properties to fair value at each year end. On 31 December 2019, the increase in Kingdom Ltd’s property has already been recorded. However, a further increase of GH¢1.2 million in the value of Paradise Ltd’s property since its value at acquisition to 31 December 2019 has not yet been recorded.

iv) Kingdom Ltd made sales to Paradise Ltd throughout the year 2019 and it had consistently been GH¢600,000 per month. Kingdom Ltd made a mark-up of 25% on all of these sales. A total of GH¢1.2 million (at cost to Paradise) of Paradise Ltd’s inventory at 31 December 2019 had been supplied by Kingdom Ltd during the post-acquisition period.

v) At 31 December 2019, Kingdom Ltd had a trade receivable balance owing from Paradise Ltd of GH¢2.4 million. However, this did not agree to the equivalent trade payable of Paradise Ltd as a result of a payment by Paradise Ltd of GH¢800,000 made in December 2019, which did not reflect in Kingdom Ltd’s bank account until 4 January 2020. Kingdom Ltd’s policy for cash timing differences is to adjust the parent’s financial statements.

vi) Kingdom Ltd on December 2019, accepted a GH¢1 million 10% loan note from Paradise Ltd.

Additional information:

i) On 1 January 2018, Labone acquired 80% of the equity share capital of Nungua for cash consideration of GH¢560 million. At the same date, Labone acquired 70% of the equity share capital of Teshie for cash consideration. Labone has correctly recorded both transactions. At this time, the balances on the retained earnings, the fair values of non-controlling interests, and fair values of the identifiable net assets of Nungua and Teshie were as follows:

Nungua Teshie
Retained earnings GH¢300 million GH¢120 million
Fair value of non-controlling interests GH¢140 million GH¢80 million
Fair value of net assets GH¢640 million GH¢310 million

Any difference between the acquisition date fair value and book value of the identifiable net assets of both investees was due to land. Fair value adjustments should be deemed as temporary differences which are subject to tax of 20%. The fair values of identifiable net assets above are not yet adjusted for tax. Shortly after acquisition, Teshie incorporated the fair values (together with any tax effects) into its separate financial statements, but Nungua had not yet incorporated the fair values into its separate financial statements.

ii) On 1 October 2021, Labone disposed of 40% out of the 70% equity shares of Teshie for GH¢220 million. Labone credited the proceeds received to its “Investment in Teshie” and debited “Cash.” At this time, it was determined that the fair value of the remaining interest was GH¢180 million. Following the sale, Labone could only exert significant influence over Teshie.

iii) During the financial year, Labone transferred goods worth GH¢5 million every month to Teshie. By 31 December 2021, Teshie had not sold the last two months’ deliveries and had included them in its year-end inventory. Labone charges three-seventh (3/7) mark-up on all sales.

iv) Labone’s receivable balance includes GH¢12 million owed by Teshie in respect of the last three months’ sales. This balance agreed with the corresponding payables in Teshie’s financial statements.

v) In its separate financial statements, Labone has accounted for its investments in both Nungua and Teshie at cost. It is the policy of Labone group to measure goodwill in full and to record non-controlling interests at fair value at acquisition. Neither goodwill of Nungua nor that of Teshie has suffered any impairment since acquisition.

vi) Labone has two internal business segments: Construction Division and Merchandise Division. On 1 July 2021, the Construction Division entered into a 1-year fixed price contract to construct an ultra-modern office complex at a contract sum of GH¢60 million for a district government agency located in the Eastern zone of Ghana. Total estimated costs at the time the contract was concluded were GH¢52 million. Actual costs incurred up to 31 December 2021 amounted to GH¢32 million. At 31 December 2021, the Directors of Labone revised its total construction costs on the project to GH¢64 million. No progress payments have been received from the agency. The only entries made have been to include the costs incurred in Labone’s inventory. Labone measures progress to completion on the basis of cost.

vii) During the current year, Nungua and Teshie reported profits after tax of GH¢48 million and GH¢40 million respectively. Unless otherwise stated, it may be assumed that profits accrued evenly over the year and that no dividends were paid during the year.

(Note: Deferred tax adjustment should be ignored, unless otherwise indicated.)

Required:
