Case 1: Fluffy Cakemix Company offered its customers a large non-
breakable mixing bowl in exchange for 25 cents and 10 boxtops. The
mixing bowl costs Fluffy Cakemix Company 75 cents, and the
company estimates that customers will redeem 60 percent of the
boxtops. The premium offer began in June 2011 and resulted in the
transactions journalized below. Fluffy Cakemix Company records
purchase of 20,000 mixing bowls as follows.
Inventory of Premium Mixing Bowls 15,000
Cash 15,000
20,000 x $0.75 = $15,000

The entry to record sales of 300,000 boxes of cake mix would be:
Cash 240,000
Sales 240,000
300,000 x$0.80 = $240,000
Fluffy records the actual redemption of 60,000 boxtops, the receipt
of 25 cents per 10 boxtops, and the delivery of the mixing bowls as
follows.
Cash [(60,000 / 10) x $0.25] 1,500
Premium Expense 3,000
Inventory of Premium Mixing Bowls 4,500
Computation: (60,000 / 10) x $0.75 = $4,500

ENVIRONMENTAL PROVISIONS
Case 2
Copyright RSM/Accounting& Control/ Miriam Koning
10
A company must recognize an environmental liability
when it has an existing obligation associated with the
retirement of a long-lived asset and when it can
reasonably estimate the amount of the liability.
Environmental provisions
Copyright RSM/Accounting& Control/ Miriam Koning
11
Obligating Events. Examples of existing obligations, which
require recognition of a liability include, but are not limited to:
Decommissioning nuclear facilities,
Dismantling, restoring, and reclamation of oil and gas
properties,
Certain closure, reclamation, and removal costs of
mining facilities,
Closure and post-closure costs of landfills.
Environmental provisions
Copyright RSM/Accounting& Control/ Miriam Koning
12
Measurement. A company initially measures an environmental
liability at the best estimate of its future costs.
Recognition and Allocation. To record an environmental
liability a company includes
the cost associated with the environmental liability in the
carrying amount of the related long-lived asset, and
records a liability for the same amount.
Environmental provisions

platform in the Gulf of Mexico. Wildcat is legally required to dismantle

Case 2: On January 1, 2011, Wildcat Oil Company erected an oil
platform in the Gulf of Mexico. Wildcat is legally required to dismantle
and remove the platform at the end of its useful life, estimated to be
five years. Wildcat estimates that dismantling and removal will cost
$1,000,000. Based on a 10 percent discount rate, the fair value of the
environmental liability is estimated to be $620,920 ($1,000,000 x
.62092). Wildcat records this liability on Jan. 1, 2011 as follows.
Drilling platform 620,920
Environmental liability 620,920
Environmental provisions

During the life of the asset, Wildcat allocates the asset retirement
cost to expense. Using the straight-line method, Wildcat makes
the following entries to record this expense.
Depreciation expense ($620,920 / 5) 124,184
Accumulated depreciation 124,184

Liability vs equity classification
Question compound financial instrument
On 1 January 2009, a company issues 200K euro of 7% bonds at
par. Interest on these bonds is payable on 31 December each year.
The bonds are due for redemption at par on 31 December 2012 but
may be converted into ordinary shares on that date instead (option
to the holder).
Assuming that the market rate of interest is 9% p.a., how should the
bonds be accounted for on 1 January 2009?
a. Liability 200,000 euro
b. Equity 200,000 euro
c. Liability for 100,000 euro and Equity for 100,000 euro
d. Liability for 187,041 euro and Equity for 12,959 euro

Liability vs equity classification
There are just two categories: debt and equity
IFRS: If an entity cannot avoid to pay dividend or to
redeem: debt, otherwise equity
Irrespective of legal form
This drives not only balance sheet presentation, but
also profit or loss:
If debt: payment of remuneration (whether dividend or
interest) is deducted from profit
If equity: payment of remuneration (whether dividend or
interest) is considered part of profit appropriation

Convertible debt is accounted for as a compound instrument.
Companies use the with-and-without method to value
compound instruments.
Accounting for Convertible Debt
CONVERTIBLE DEBT
Copyright RSM/Accounting& Control/ Miriam Koning
26
Implementation of the with-and-without approach:
1. First, determine total fair value of convertible debt with both liability
and equity component.
2. Second, determine liability component by computing net present
value of all contractual future cash flows discounted at the market
rate of interest.
3. Finally, subtract liability component estimated in second step from
fair value of convertible debt (issue proceeds) to arrive at the equity
component.

Case 3 Convertible Bond
On 1 January 2009, a company issues 2,000 convertible bonds. The bonds have a four-
year term with a stated interest of 7% , and are issued at par with a face value of 100
per bond (the total proceeds received from issuance of the bonds are 200,000). Interest
is payable annually at 31 December. Each bond is convertible at maturity date into 25
ordinary shares with a par value of 1, option to the holder. The market rate of interest o
similar non-convertible debt is 9%.
