题目内容

(a) A director of Enca, a public listed company, has expressed concerns about the accounting treatment of some of the company’s items of property, plant and equipment which have increased in value. His main concern is that the statement of financial position does not show the true value of assets which have increased in value and that this ‘undervaluation’ is compounded by having to charge depreciation on these assets, which also reduces reported profit. He argues that this does not make economic sense.
Required:
Respond to the director’s concerns by summarising the principal requirements of IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment in relation to the revaluation of property, plant and equipment, including its subsequent treatment.
(b) The following details relate to two items of property, plant and equipment (A and B) owned by Delta which are depreciated on a straight-line basis with no estimated residual value:
At 31 March 2014 item A was still in use, but item B was sold (on that date) for $70 million.
Note: Delta makes an annual transfer from its revaluation surplus to retained earnings in respect of excess depreciation.
Required:
Prepare extracts from:
(i) Delta’s statements of profit or loss for the years ended 31 March 2013 and 2014 in respect of charges (expenses) related to property, plant and equipment;
(ii) Delta’s statements of financial position as at 31 March 2013 and 2014 for the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment and the revaluation surplus.
The following mark allocation is provided as guidance for this requirement:
(i) 5 marks
(ii) 5 marks (10 marks)

Trombone Co (Trombone) operates a chain of hotels across the country. Trombone employs in excess of 250 permanent employees and its year end is 31 August 2014. You are the audit supervisor of Viola & Co and are currently reviewing the documentation of Trombone’s payroll system, detailed below, in preparation for the interim audit.
Trombone’s payroll system
Permanent employees work a standard number of hours per week as specified in their employment contract. However, when the hotels are busy, staff can be requested by management to work additional shifts as overtime. This can either be paid on a monthly basis or taken as days off.
Employees record any overtime worked and days taken off on weekly overtime sheets which are sent to the payroll department. The standard hours per employee are automatically set up in the system and the overtime sheets are entered by clerks into the payroll package, which automatically calculates the gross and net pay along with relevant deductions. These calculations are not checked at all. Wages are increased by the rate of inflation each year and the clerks are responsible for updating the standing data in the payroll system.
Employees are paid on a monthly basis by bank transfer for their contracted weekly hours and for any overtime worked in the previous month. If employees choose to be paid for overtime, authorisation is required by department heads of any overtime in excess of 30% of standard hours. If employees choose instead to take days off, the payroll clerks should check back to the ‘overtime worked’ report; however, this report is not always checked.
The ‘overtime worked’ report, which details any overtime recorded by employees, is run by the payroll department weekly and emailed to department heads for authorisation. The payroll department asks department heads to only report if there are any errors recorded. Department heads are required to arrange for overtime sheets to be authorised by an alternative responsible official if they are away on annual leave; however, there are instances where this arrangement has not occurred.
The payroll package produces a list of payments per employee; this links into the bank system to produce a list of automatic payments. The finance director reviews the total list of bank transfers and compares this to the total amount to be paid per the payroll records; if any issues arise then the automatic bank transfer can be manually changed by the finance director.
Required:
(a) In respect of the payroll system of Trombone Co:
(i) Identify and explain FIVE deficiencies;
(ii) Recommend a control to address each of these deficiencies; and
(iii) Describe a test of control Viola & Co should perform. to assess if each of these controls is operating effectively.
Note: The total marks will be split equally between each part. (15 marks)
(b) Explain the difference between an interim and a final audit. (5 marks)
(c) Describe substantive procedures you should perform. at the final audit to confirm the completeness and accuracy of Trombone Co’s payroll expense. (6 marks)
Trombone deducts employment taxes from its employees’ wages on a monthly basis and pays these to the local taxation authorities in the following month. At the year end the financial statements will contain an accrual for income tax payable on employment income. You will be in charge of auditing this accrual. Required:
(d) Describe the audit procedures required in respect of the year end accrual for tax payable on employment income. (4 marks)
