Question 1(b): AS 6 (5 Marks)
Narmada Ltd purchased an existing Bottling Unit from Kaveri Ltd. Kaveri Ltd followed Straight Line Method of charging
depreciation on machinery of the sold unit whereas Narmada Ltd followed Written Down Value Method on its other units. The
Directors of Narmada Ltd want to continue to charge depreciation for the acquired unit in Straight Line Method which is not
consistent with the WDV Method followed in other units. Discuss the contention of the Directors with reference to the AS 6.
Further during the year, Narmada Ltd set up a new plant on coastal land. In view of the corrosive climate, the Company felt that
its machine life is reducing faster. Can the Company charge a higher rate of depreciation?
Solution: Similar to Page No.B.4.4, B.4.5 Q.No.18, 21 F (Aud) N 97, N 94
CASE A
1. Principle: The ICAIs Guidance Note on Accounting for Depreciation in Companies provides that a Company may adopt
or follow different methods of depreciation, for different types of assets, provided the same methods are consistently
adopted every year in terms of Sec.205 (2) of the Companies Act.
2. Selection of method: The factors to be considered while selecting a method of depreciation are (a) Type of
asset, (b) Nature of its use, and (c) Circumstances prevailing in the business. Under AS 6, a combination of
more than one method may be used. So, Business Units in different geographical locations can follow different
methods of depreciation on machinery provided the same are consistently followed.
3. Conclusion: The Company can continue to follow the previous method of charging depreciation for the acquired bottling
unit, even if it is not in agreement with the method presently followed in its other units. However, it is advisable to disclose
this Accounting Policy separately, to understand and appreciate the Financial Statements better.

CASE B
1. Where the Statute has prescribed a certain rate of depreciation and the Managements assessment of Useful Life is
shorter than that envisaged by the Statute, the Company can adopt a higher rate of depreciation.
2. In the given case, the Company can charge depreciation based on its estimate of the useful life of machinery, provided
that such estimate is not less than the rate prescribed by the Companies Act, for that class of assets.
3. Such higher depreciation rates and / or the reduced useful lives of the assets should be disclosed by way of Notes to
the accounts in the Financial Statements.
Question 1(c): AS 9 (5 Marks)
A Ltd entered into a contract with B Ltd to despatch goods valuing ` 25,000 every month for 4 months upon receipt of entire
payment. B Ltd accordingly made the payment of ` 1,00,000 and A Ltd started despatching the goods. In third month, due to a
natural calamity, B Ltd requested A Ltd. not to despatch goods until further notice, though A Ltd is holding the remaining
goods worth ` 50,000 ready for despatch. A Ltd accounted ` 50,000 as Sales and transferred the balance to Advance Received
against Sales. Comment upon the treatment of balanced amount with reference to the provisions of AS9.
Solution: Similar to Page No.B.6.8, Q.No.23, P (Aud) N 06, F (Aud) N 01
1. Analysis: The transfer of property in goods results in or coincides with the transfer of significant risks and rewards of
ownership to the Buyer. Also, the sale price has been recovered by the Seller. Hence, the sale is complete in the given
case, but delivery has been postponed at Buyers request.
2. Conclusion: The Seller Company should recognise the entire income of ` 1 Lakh as Income (` 25,000 p.m. for 4
months) and no part of the same is to be treated as Advance Receipt against Sales.
Question 1(d): AS 14 (5 Marks)

Financial Statements of the Transferor Company,

of the Transferor Company should be recognised in
the Transferee Companys Financial Statements as
Goodwill, which should be amortised to income on a
systematic basis over its useful life. (normally 5 yrs.)
If the consideration is lower than the value of the
Net Assets acquired, the difference should be treated
as Capital Reserve.
