7. The board of directors of ABC Inc. decided on December 15, 20XX, to wind up international
operations in the Far
East and move them to Australia. The decision was based on a detailed formal plan of
restructuring as required by
PAS 37. This decision was conveyed to all workers and management personnel at the
headquarters in Europe. The
cost of restructuring the operations in the Far East as per this detailed plan was ₱2 million.
How should ABC Inc.
treat this restructuring in its financial statements for the year-end December 31, 20XX?
a. Because ABC Inc. has not announced the restructuring to those affected by the decision
and thus has not raised an expectation that ABC Inc. will actually carry out the
restructuring (and as no constructive obligation has arisen), only disclose the
restructuring decision and the cost of restructuring of ₱2 million in footnotes to the
financial statements.
b. Recognize a provision for restructuring since the board of directors has approved it and it
has been announced in the headquarters of ABC Inc. in Europe.
c. Mention the decision to restructure and the cost involved in the chairman’s statement in
the annual report since it a decision of the board of directors.
d. Because the restructuring has not commenced before year-end, based on prudence, wait
until next year and do nothing in this year’s financial statements.
8. In 20x1, LUMINOUS SHINING Co. recalled a product due to a possible defect caused by
malfunctioning factory
equipment. The products recalled will be repaired free of charge. LUMINOUS is uncertain
whether all products
recalled will have the possible defect. However, the following estimate was made by
LUMINOUS’s engineers and
managerial accountants and approved by the board of directors.
9. A manufacturer gives warranties at the time of sale to purchasers of its product. Under the
terms of the contract of
sale, the manufacturer undertakes to make good, by repair or replacement, manufacturing
defects that become
apparent within one year from the date of sale. On the basis of experience, it is probable (i.e.,
more likely than not)
that there will be some claims under the warranties.
At December 31, 20x1 the expenditures for warranty repairs and replacements for the
product sold in 20x1 are expected to be made 50% in 20x1 and 50% in 20x2. Assume for
simplicity that all the 20x2 outflows of economic benefits related to the warranty repairs
and replacements take place on June 30, 20x2.
At December 31, 20x1, the appropriate discount factor for cash flows expected to occur
on June 30, 20x2 is 0.95238. Furthermore, an appropriate risk adjustment factor to
reflect the uncertainties in the cash flow estimates is an increment of 6 per cent to the
probability-weighted expected cash flows.

a. 198,948 c. 138,843
b. 135,204 d. 143,134

19. On January 1, 20x1, SLOPPY UNTIDY Co. issued 10%, ₱4,000,000 bonds at face amount.
SLOPPY paid underwriter’s commission of 192,147. The bonds mature on December 31, 20x3.
Interest is due annually. The effective interest on the bond issue is approximately equal to
a. 9.2659% c. 12%
b. 11.3692% d. 13.5%
19. C
Initial measurement: (4,000,000 – 192,147) = 3,807,853
Trial using 12%:
(4M x PV of ₱1 @ 12%, n=3) + [400,000 x PV of an ordinary annuity of ₱1 @ 12%, n=3] =
3,807,853
(2,847,120 + 960,733) = 3,807,853 is equal to 3,807,853
20. On March 1, 2002, Pyne Furniture Co. issued ₱700,000 of 10 percent bonds to yield 8
percent. Interest is payable semiannually on February 28 and August 31. The bonds mature in

of the bonds?
a. 792,335 c. 802,336
b. 795,132 d. 809,667
20. B
Solution:
(700,000 x PV of 1 @4%(a), n=20(b)) + (35,000(c) x PV ordinary annuity @4%, n=20) =
319,471 + 475,661 = 795,132
(a) 8% ÷ 2 = 4%
(b) 10 yrs. x 2 payments in a year = 20
(c) 700,000x 10% x ½ = 35,000
21. On January 1, 20x1, SPITEFUL MALICIOUS Co. issued 1,000, ₱4,000, 10%, 3-year bonds for

instead of the effective interest method to amortize the discount. What is the effect of the
error on the carrying amount of the bonds on December 31, 20x1? (over) understated
a. 7,107 c. 6,341
b. (7,107) d. (6,341)
21. B

overstated by ₱7,107.

Accrued interest 600,000 -
Remaining term ('n') 3 years

Difference 1,560,738
Divide by: Carrying amount of old liability 20,600,000
7.58%
❖ The modification is NOT substantial. The old liability is not extinguished and NO GAIN OR
LOSS on extinguishment is recognized. The direct costs of modification are treated as an
adjustment to the carrying amount of the existing liability.
