13. Exam question — Tyre Tyre, a public limited company, operates in the vehicle retailing sector. The company is currently preparing its financial statements for the year ended 31 May 2006 and has asked for advice on how to deal with the following items:

14. Exam question — Tyre Tyre requires customers to pay a deposit of 20% of the purchase price when placing an order for a vehicle. If the customer cancels the order, the deposit is not refundable and Tyre retains it.

15. Exam question — Tyre If the order cannot be fulfilled by Tyre, the company repays the full amount of the deposit to the customer. The balance of the purchase price becomes payable on the delivery of the vehicle when the title to the goods passes.

16. Exam question — Tyre Tyre proposes to recognise the revenue from the deposits immediately and the balance of the purchase price when the goods are delivered to the customer.

17. Exam question — Tyre The cost of sales for the vehicle is recognise when the balance of the purchase price is paid. Additionally, Tyre had sold a fleet of cars to Hub and gave Hub a discount of 30% of the retail price on the transaction.

18. Exam question — Tyre The discount given is normal for this type of transaction. Tyre has given Hub a buyback option which entitles Hub to require Tyre to repurchase the vehicles after three years for 40% of the purchase price.

19. Exam question — Tyre The normal economic life of the vehicle is five years and the buyback option is expected to be exercised. Solution: Revenue recognition IAS 18 requirements (see above)

20. Exam question — Tyre Deposit recognition — as a deferred income except: --when goods are delivered and accepted, or --when cancellation of the contract by the customer Recognition of revenue and related cost should be under same way

21. Exam question — Tyre Sale of a fleet of cars Buyback option is expected to be exercised, so risks and rewards are not transferred. No sale arises

22. Exam question — Tyre Operating lease --30% discount is normal(not normal in fact for selling cars) --only 40% of purchase price to buy back --lease term / UEL = 3/5 = 60% (75%) --PVMLP/FV = (100x70%- 70x40%)/100=42% (90%)

23. Exam question — Tyre The assets will be still recognised as NCA and depreciated under IAS 16 The buyback option — IAS 39 financial liability

24. Exam question — Tyre Dr Cash 70 Cr Buyback option 28 (40%) Cr deferred income 42
