PROBLEM NO. 2
DARWIN CORP., a manufacturer of computer part5s, has been experiencing growth in the demand for its
products over the last several years. This prompted the company to obtain addition manufacturing. A real
estate firm located an available factory and used machinery from production facility and Darwin agreed to
purchase the factory and used machinery from Quezon Company on October 1, 2011. Renovations were
necessary to convert the factory for Darwins manufacturing use.
The terms of the agreement required Darwin to pay Quezon P4,500,000 when renovations started on January
1,2012, with the balance to be paid as renovations were complete. The overall purchase price for the factory
and machinery was P36,000,000. The building renovations were contracted to Mallbornes Construction
company at P9,000,000. The payments made as renovation progressed during 2012 are shown below. The
factory was placed in service on January 1, 2013.

QUEZON MALLBORNES
January 1 P 4,500,00 P 2,700,000
April 1 8,100,000 2,700,000

October 1 9,900,000 3,600,000


December 1 13,500,000 3,600,000
P36,000,000 P9,000,000

On January 1, 2012, Darwin obtained a 2-year, P9 million loan with 12% interest rate to finance the renovation
of the acquired factory. This is Darwins only outstanding loan during 2012.

Darwins policy regarding purchases of this nature is to use the appraisal value of the land for book purposes
and prorate the balance of the purchase price over the remaining items. The building had originally cost
Quezon P27,000,000 and had a net book value of P4,500,000 , while the machinery originally cost
P11,250,000 and had a net value of P3,600,000 on the date of sale. The land was recorded on Quezons
books at 3,600,000.

The following values were determined based on appraisal conducted by independent appraisers at the time
acquisition.
Land P26,100,000
Building 9,450,000
Machinery 4,050,000

Gino G. Nario, Darwins chief engineer estimated that the renovated plant would be used for 15 years, with an
estimate residual value of P27,700,000. Nario estimated that the productive machinery would have a remaining
useful life of 5 years and residual value of P270,000. Darwins depreciation policy is to apply the 200%
declining balance method for machinery and the 150% declining balance method for the plant. One-half years
depreciation is taken in the year the plant is placed in service and one-half is allowed when the property is
disposed of or retired.

The following information relates to accounts that may yet require adjustment.

1. Patents for Aceros manufacturing process were acquired January 2, 2013, at a cost of P2,805,000. An
additional P1, 041,000 was spent on December 29,2013, to improve machinery covered by the patents
and charged to the Patents account. Depreciation on property, plant, and equipment has been properly
recorded for 2013. Acero uses the straight-line method for all depreciation and amortization and the
legal life on its patents.

2. On January 3, 2012, Acero purchased Licensing Agreement No.1, which was believed to have an
indefinite useful life. The balance in the Licensing Agreement No.1 account includes its purchase price
of P1, 710,000 and expenses of P90,000 related to the acquisition. On January 1,2013, Acero
purchases Licensing Agreement No.2, which has a life expectancy of 10 years. The balance in the
Licensing Agreement No.2 account includes its P1, 620,000 purchase price and P180,000 in
acquisition expenses, but it has been reduced by a credit of P120,000 for the advance collection of
2014 revenue from the agreement.

In late December 2012, an explosion caused a permanent reduction in the expected revenue-producing
value of Licensing Agreement No.1 and in January 2014, a flood caused additional damage that
rendered the agreement worthless. The recoverable amount of Licensing Agreement No.1 was
determined to be P720, 000 at December 31, 2012.

3. The balance in the Goodwill account represents amount paid on December 30, 2012, for a four-year
advertising program, estimated to assist in creasing Aceros sales.

LYKA COMPANYs net income for the past three years are presented below;
2013 2012 2011
P480,000 P450,000 P360,000

During the 2013 year-end audit, the following items come to your attention:
1. Lyka bought a truck on January 1, 2010 for P196,000 with a P16,000 estimated salvage value and a
six-year life. The company debited an expense account and credited cash on the purchase date for
the entire cost of the asset. (Straight-line method)

A1 PASSERS TRAINING, RESEARCH, REVIEW AND DEVELOPMENT COMPANY// 29


2. During 2013, Lyka changed from the straight-line method of depreciating its cement plant to the
double-declining balance method. The following computations present depreciation on both bases:

2013 2012 2011


Straight-line 36,000 36,000 36,000
Double-declining 46,080 57,600 72,000

The net income for 2013 was computed using the double-declining balance method, on the January 1,
2013 book value over the useful life remaining at the time. The depreciation recorded in 2013 was
P72,000.

3. Lyka, in reviewing its provision for uncollectible during 2013, has determined that 1% is the
appropriate amount of bad debt expense to be charged to operations. The company had use 1/2 of
1% as its rate in 2012 when the expense had been P18,000 and P12,000, respectively. The company
recorded bad debt expense under the new rate for 2013. The company would have recorded P6,000
less of bad debt expense on December 31, 2013 under the old rate.

31. What is the entry necessary to correct the books for the transaction in part 1 of the problem, assuming that
the books for the current year are still open?

PROBLEM NO.8

At the beginning of 2013, an entity grants 50 share option each to 500 employees. The grants is conditional
upon the employees remaining in the entitys employ during a vesting period of three years.

The exercise price at grant date is estimated at P60. However, the exercise price drops to P40 if the entitys
earning increase by at least an average of 10% per year over the three-year period.

On grant date, the entity estimates that the fair value of the share options, with an exercise price of P40, is P20
per option. If the exercise price is P60, the entity estimates that the share options have a fair value of P18 per
option.

A1 PASSERS TRAINING, RESEARCH, REVIEW AND DEVELOPMENT COMPANY// 30


The following actual events occurred:

2013
30 employees have left. The entity expects on the basis of a weighted average probability that a further
30 employees will leave during 2014 and 2015, respectively.
The entitys earning increase by 12% and the entity expects that earning will continue to increase at this
rate over the next two years. The entity therefore expects that the earnings target will be achieved, and
hence the share options will have an exercise price of P40.
2014
At year end, a further 35 employees have resigned. The entity expects that a further 30 employees will
leave during 2015.
The entitys earning increased by 13% and it continues to expect that the earning target will be
achieved.
2015
A further 28 employees have left by the end the year.
Due to a general decrease in market demand, the entitys earnings increased by only 3% because the
earnings target was not achieved , the 50 vested share options for each employee have exercise price
of P60.

Base on the preceding information, determine the following:

36. Compensation expense for 2013
