Reporting Standards (IFRSs)" had been included in the syllabus and is applicable for
November, 2017 Examination.
However, considering the extensive coverage of the contents covered in this topic,
small simple problems involving conceptual or application issues may be asked in the
examination.
It may be noted that the existing Accounting Standards will continue to be applicable
for November, 2017 examination for all chapters except Chapter 2 as mentioned
above and Chapter 6 on 'Accounting and Reporting of Financial Instruments' which
would be based on Ind AS 32, 107 and 109.
3. Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) (Amendment) Rules, 2016

Appendix II at the end of this part for overview of Ind AS 11 and Ind AS 18).
The annual improvements process of IASB is a vehicle for making non-urgent but necessary
amendments to the standards. These amendments are limited to the changes that either clarify the
wordings in an IFRS or correct relatively minor unintended consequences, oversights or conflicts between
the existing requirements of the IFRS.
Appendix I
1. Introduction
The objective of this Standard is to prescribe Accounting treatment for Property, Plant and
Equipment (PPE). The principal issues in accounting for property, plant and equipment
are the recognition of the assets, the determination of their carrying amounts and the
depreciation charges and impairment losses to be recognised in relation to them.

2. Investment property (defined in AS 13), should be accounted for only in accordance
with the Cost model prescribed in this standard.
3. Definition of Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE)
There are 2 conditions to be satisfied for a TANGIBLE item to be called PPE. PPE are
tangible items that:
Use in Production or Supply of
Goods or Services
Condition 1:
For Rental to others
Held for
PPE
For Administrative purposes
(Tangible Items)
Condition 2:

The resulting carrying amount of such an asset and related assets is reviewed for
impairment in accordance with AS 28 (Impairment of Assets).
4. Other Definitions
I Biological Asset: An Accounting Standard on Agriculture is under formulation,
which will, inter alia, cover accounting for livestock. Till the time, the Accounting
Standard on Agriculture is issued, accounting for livestock meeting the definition of
PPE, will be covered as per AS 10 (Revised).

AS 10 applies to
Plant
Bearer Plants
Note: When bearer plants are no longer used to bear produce they might be cut down
and sold as scrap. For example - use as firewood. Such incidental scrap sales would
not prevent the plant from satisfying the definition of a Bearer Plant.
The resulting carrying amount of such an asset and related assets is reviewed for
impairment in accordance with AS 28 (Impairment of Assets).

Accounting Treatment:
An enterprise recognises in the carrying amount of an item of PPE the cost of
replacing part of such an item when that cost is incurred if the recognition criteria are
met.
Note: The carrying amount of those parts that are replaced is derecognised in
accordance with the de-recognition provisions of this Standard.
7.3 Regular Major Inspections - Accounting Treatment
When each major inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying
amount of the item of PPE as a replacement, if the recognition criteria are satisfied.
Any remaining carrying amount of the cost of the previous inspection (as distinct from
physical parts) is derecognised.
Illustration 2
What happens if the cost of the previous part/inspection was/ was not identified in the
transaction in which the item was acquired or constructed? (Related to Issue 2 and 3)
Solution
De-recognition of the carrying amount occurs regardless of whether the cost of the previous
part/inspection was identified in the transaction in which the item was acquired or constructed.
Illustration 3
What will be your answer in the above question, if it is not practicable for an enterprise to
determine the carrying amount of the replaced part/inspection?
Solution
It may use the cost of the replacement or the estimated cost of a future similar inspection as
an indication of what the cost of the replaced part/existing inspection component was when
the item was acquired or constructed.

9. Measurement at Recognition
An item of PPE that qualifies for recognition as an asset should be measured at its cost.
What are the elements of Cost?
Cost of an item of PPE comprises:

it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. The costs to be incurred by the
company do not meet the requirement of AS 10 and therefore, cannot be capitalised.
Illustration 5 (Capitalisation of directly attributable costs)
Entity A, which operates a major chain of supermarkets, has acquired a new store location. The
new location requires significant renovation expenditure. Management expects that the renovations
will last for 3 months during which the supermarket will be closed.
Management has prepared the budget for this period including expenditure related to construction
and remodelling costs, salaries of staff who will be preparing the store before its opening and
related utilities costs. What will be the treatment of such expenditures?
Solution
Management should capitalise the costs of construction and remodelling the supermarket, because
they are necessary to bring the store to the condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in
the manner intended by management. The supermarket cannot be opened without incurring the
remodelling expenditure, and thus the expenditure should be considered part of the asset.
However, the cost of salaries, utilities and storage of goods are operating expenditures that would
be incurred if the supermarket was open. These costs are not necessary to bring the store to the
condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management and
should be expensed.
Illustration 6 (Operating costs incurred in the start-up period)
An amusement park has a 'soft' opening to the public, to trial run its attractions. Tickets are sold
at a 50% discount during this period and the operating capacity is 80%. The official opening day
of the amusement park is three months later. Management claim that the soft opening is a trial run
necessary for the amusement park to be in the condition capable of operating in the intended
manner. Accordingly, the net operating costs incurred should be capitalised. Comment.
Solution
The net operating costs should not be capitalised, but should be recognised in the Statement of
Profit and Loss.
Even though it is running at less than full operating capacity (in this case 80% of operating capacity),
there is sufficient evidence that the amusement park is capable of operating in the manner intended
by management. Therefore, these costs are specific to the start-up and, therefore, should be
expensed as incurred.
C. Decommissioning, Restoration and similar Liabilities:
Initial estimate of the costs of dismantling, removing the item and restoring the site on
which it is located, referred to as Decommissioning, Restoration and similar Liabilities,
the obligation for which an enterprise incurs either when the item is acquired or as a
consequence of having used the item during a particular period for purposes other than
to produce inventories during that period.
2. If the acquired item(s) is/are not measured at fair value, its/their cost is
measured at the carrying amount of the asset(s) given up.
Illustration 7 (Consideration received comprising a combination of non-
monetary and monetary assets)
Entity A exchanges surplus land with a book value of ` 10,00,000 for cash of ` 20,00,000
and plant and machinery valued at ` 25,00,000. What will be the measurement cost of the
assets received?
Solution
Since the transaction has commercial substance. The plant and machinery would be
recorded at ` 25,00,000, which is equivalent to the fair value of the land of ` 45,00,000 less
the cash received of ` 20,00,000.
Illustration 8 (Exchange of assets that lack commercial substance)
Entity A exchanges car X with a book value of ` 13,00,000 and a fair value of ` 13,25,000 for
cash of ` 15,000 and car Y which has a fair value of ` 13,10,000. The transaction lacks
commercial substance as the companys cash flows are not expected to change as a result
of the exchange. It is in the same position as it was before the transaction. What will be the
measurement cost of the assets received?
Solution
The entity recognises the assets received at the book value of car X. Therefore, it recognises
cash of ` 15,000 and car Y as PPE with a carrying value of ` 12,85,000.
Reason:
The items within a class of PPE are revalued simultaneously to avoid selective
revaluation of assets and the reporting of amounts in the Financial Statements that
are a mixture of costs and values as at different dates.
Illustration 9 (Revaluation on a class by class basis)
Entity A is a large manufacturing group. It owns a number of industrial buildings, such as
factories and warehouses and office buildings in several capital cities. The industrial
buildings are located in industrial zones, whereas the office buildings are in central
business districts of the cities. Entity A's management want to apply the revaluation model
as per AS 10 to the subsequent measurement of the office buildings but continue to apply
the historical cost model to the industrial buildings.
State whether this is acceptable under AS 10 or not with reasons?
Solution
Entity A's management can apply the revaluation model only to the office buildings. The office
buildings can be clearly distinguished from the industrial buildings in terms of their function,
their nature and their general location. AS 10 permits assets to be revalued on a class by
class basis.
The different characteristics of the buildings enable them to be classified as different PPE
classes. The different measurement models can, therefore, be applied to these classes for
subsequent measurement.
All properties within the class of office buildings must, therefore, be carried at revalued
amount.
14.2 Frequency of Revaluations
Revaluations should be made with sufficient regularity to ensure that the carrying
amount does not differ materially from that which would be determined using Fair
value at the Balance Sheet date.
The frequency of revaluations depends upon the changes in fair values of the items
of PPE being revalued.
When the fair value of a revalued asset differs materially from its carrying amount, a
further revaluation is required.
A. Items of PPE experience significant and volatile changes in Fair value
Annual revaluation shall be done.
B. Items of PPE with only insignificant changes in Fair value
Revaluation shall be done at an interval of 3 or 5 years.

15. Depreciation
Component Method of Depreciation:
Each part of an item of PPE with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of
the item should be depreciated separately.
Example: It may be appropriate to depreciate separately the airframe and engines of an
aircraft, whether owned or subject to a finance lease.
Is Grouping of Components possible?
Yes.
A significant part of an item of PPE may have a useful life and a depreciation method that
are the same as the useful life and the depreciation method of another significant part of
that same item. Such parts may be grouped in determining the depreciation charge.
Accounting Treatment:
Depreciation charge for each period should be recognised in the Statement of Profit and
Loss unless it is included in the carrying amount of another asset.
Examples on Exception:
AS 2: Depreciation of manufacturing plant and equipment is included in the costs of
conversion of inventories as per AS 2.
AS 26: Depreciation of PPE used for development activities may be included in the cost of
an intangible asset recognised in accordance with AS 26 on Intangible Assets.
16. Depreciable Amount and Depreciation Period
16.1 What is Depreciable Amount?
Depreciable amount is:
Cost of an asset (or other amount substituted for cost i.e. revalued amount) - Residual value
The depreciable amount of an asset should be allocated on a systematic basis over
its useful life.
Illustration 10
Entity A has a policy of not providing for depreciation on PPE capitalised in the year until the
following year, but provides for a full year's depreciation in the year of disposal of an asset. Is this
acceptable?
Solution
The depreciable amount of a tangible fixed asset should be allocated on a systematic basis over
its useful life. The depreciation method should reflect the pattern in which the asset's future
economic benefits are expected to be consumed by the entity.
Useful life means the period over which the asset is expected to be available for use by the entity.
Depreciation should commence as soon as the asset is acquired and is available for use.

Exception:
It should be recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss to the extent
that it reverses a revaluation deficit on the asset that was previously
recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss
Note: In the event that a decrease in the liability exceeds the carrying amount
that would have been recognised had the asset been carried under the cost
model, the excess should be recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit
and Loss.
(ii) Increase in the liability should be recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss
Exception:
It should be debited directly to Revaluation surplus in the owners interest
to the extent of any credit balance existing in the Revaluation surplus in
respect of that asset
Caution:
A change in the liability is an indication that the asset may have to be revalued
in order to ensure that the carrying amount does not differ materially from that
which would be determined using fair value at the balance sheet date.
What happens if the related asset has reached the end of its useful life?
All subsequent changes in the liability should be recognised in the Statement of
Profit and Loss as they occur.
Note: This applies under both the cost model and the revaluation model.
19. Impairment
To determine whether an item of PPE is impaired, an enterprise applies AS 28 on
Impairment of Assets.
AS 28 explains how an enterprise:
Reviews the carrying amount of its Assets
How it determines the Recoverable Amount of an Asset, and
When it Recognises, or Reverses the recognition of, an Impairment loss
20. Compensation for Impairment
Compensation from third parties for items of PPE that were impaired, lost or given up
should be included in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the compensation becomes
receivable.

expenses respectively by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at the end
of the reporting period.
When the outcome of a construction contract cannot be estimated reliably:
(a) revenue shall be recognised only to the extent of contract costs incurred that it is probable
will be recoverable; and
(b) contract costs shall be recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred
3. Recognition of Expected Losses
When it is probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected
loss shall be recognised as an expense immediately.
An entity shall disclose the amount recognised as contract revenue in the period, the method
used to determine the contract revenue recognised and stage of completion of contracts in
progress.
For the contracts in progress at the end of the period, an entity shall disclose the aggregate
costs incurred and recognised profits to date, the amounts of retentions and advances received.
Appendix A of Ind AS 11 gives guidance on accounting by operators for publicto- private service
concession arrangements. It sets out principles for recognition and measurement of the
obligations and related rights in service concession arrangements. The Appendix prescribes
that an operator shall not recognise the public service infrastructure (within the scope of this
appendix) as its Property, Plant and Equipment because the contractual service arrangement
does not convey the right to control the use of the infrastructure. It only gives operator the
access to operate the infrastructure to provide public service on behalf of the grantor.
The operator shall account for revenue and costs relating to construction or upgrade services
in accordance with Ind AS 11 and those relating to operation services in accordance with Ind
AS 18. The consideration received or receivable shall be recognised at its fair value. The
consideration may be rights to a financial asset or an intangible asset.
The operator recognises a financial asset to the extent that it has an unconditional contractual
right to receive cash or another financial asset from or at the direction of the grantor for the
construction services. The operator shall recognise an intangible asset to the extent that it
receives a right (a license) to charge users of the public service.
4. Major Changes in Ind AS 11 vis--vis Notified AS 7
(i) Inclusion of Borrowing costs: Existing AS 7 includes borrowing costs as per AS 16,
Borrowing Costs, in the costs that may be attributable to contract activity in general and
can be allocated to specific contracts, whereas Ind AS 11 does not specifically make
reference to Ind AS 23.
(ii) Fair Value: Existing AS 7 does not recognise fair value concept as contract revenue is
measured at consideration received/receivable, whereas Ind AS 11 requires that contract
revenue shall be measured at fair value of consideration received/receivable.
(iii) Accounting for Service Concession Arrangements: Existing AS 7 does not deal with
accounting for Service Concession Arrangements, i.e., the arrangement where private sector
entity (an operator) constructs or upgrades the infrastructure to be used to provide the public
service and operates and maintains that infrastructure for a specified period of time, whereas
Appendix A of Ind AS 11 deals with accounting aspects involved in such arrangements and
Appendix B of Ind AS 11 deals with disclosures of such arrangements.
Ind AS 18 : Revenue
The primary issue in accounting for revenue is determining when to recognise revenue.
Revenue is recognised when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity
and these benefits can be measured reliably. This Standard identifies the circumstances in
which these criteria will be met and, therefore, revenue will be recognised. It also provides
practical guidance on the application of these criteria.
Revenue is the gross inflow of economic benefits during the period arising in the course of the
ordinary activities of an entity when those inflows result in increases in equity, other than
increases relating to contributions from equity participants.
The Standard shall be applied in accounting for revenue arising from the following transactions
and events: (a) the sale of goods; (b) the rendering of services; and (c) the use by others of
entity assets yielding interest and royalties The Standard deals with recognition of interest.
However, measurement of interest and recognition and measurement of dividend are dealt in
accordance with Ind AS 109, Financial Instruments.
The impairment of any contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset arising from
this Standard shall be dealt in accordance with Ind AS 109, Financial Instruments.
1. Identification of the transaction
The recognition criteria in this Standard are usually applied separately to each transaction.
However, in certain circumstances, it is necessary to apply the recognition criteria to the
separately identifiable components of a single transaction in order to reflect the substance of
the transaction. For example, when the selling price of a product includes an identifiable amount
for subsequent servicing, that amount is deferred and recognised as revenue over the period
during which the service is performed. Conversely, the recognition criteria are applied to two or
more transactions together when they are linked in such a way that the commercial effect cannot
be understood without reference to the series of transactions as a whole. For example, an entity
may sell goods and, at the same time, enter into a separate agreement to repurchase the goods
at a later date, thus negating the substantive effect of the transaction; in such a case, the two
transactions are dealt with together.
2. Measurement of revenue
Revenue shall be measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Fair
value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The amount of revenue
arising on a transaction is usually determined by agreement between the entity and the buyer
or user of the asset. It is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable
taking into account the amount of any trade discounts and volume rebates allowed by the entity.
3. Sale of goods
Revenue from the sale of goods shall be recognised when all the following conditions have been
satisfied: (a) the entity has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of
ownership of the goods; (b) the entity retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the
degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold; (c) the
amount of revenue can be measured reliably; (d) it is probable that the economic benefits
associated with the transaction will flow to the entity; and (e) the costs incurred or to be incurred
in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.
4. Rendering of services
When the outcome of a transaction involving the rendering of services can be estimated reliably,
revenue associated with the transaction shall be recognised by reference to the stage of
completion of the transaction at the end of the reporting period. The outcome of a transaction
can be estimated reliably when all the following conditions are satisfied: (a) the amount of
revenue can be measured reliably; (b) it is probable that the economic benefits associated with
the transaction will flow to the entity; (c) the stage of completion of the transaction at the end of
the reporting period can be measured reliably; and (d) the costs incurred for the transaction and
the costs to complete the transaction can be measured reliably.
The recognition of revenue by reference to the stage of completion of a transaction is often
referred to as the percentage of completion method. Under this method, revenue is recognised
in the accounting periods in which the services are rendered. The recognition of revenue on this
basis provides useful information on the extent of service activity and performance during a
period.
When the outcome of the transaction involving the rendering of services cannot be estimated
reliably, revenue shall be recognised only to the extent of the expenses recognised that are
recoverable.
5. Interest and Royalties
Revenue arising from the use by others of entity assets yielding interest and royalties shall be
recognised when: (a) it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction
will flow to the entity; and (b) the amount of the revenue can be measured reliably.
Revenue shall be recognised on the following bases: (a) interest shall be recognised using the
effective interest method as set out in Ind AS 109; (b) royalties shall be recognised on an accrual
basis in accordance with the substance of the relevant agreement.
6. Major Changes in Ind AS 18 vis--vis IAS 18
6.1 Resulting in Carve Out
As per IFRS: On the basis of principles of the IAS 18, IFRIC 15, Agreement for Construction of
Real Estate, prescribes that construction of real estate should be treated as sale of goods and
revenue should be recognised when the entity has transferred significant risks and rewards of
ownership and retained neither continuing managerial involvement nor effective control.
Carve out: IFRIC 15 has not been included in Ind AS 18 to scope out such agreements from
Ind AS 18. A separate guidance note on accounting for real estate developers (for Ind AS
compliant entities) has been issued by the ICAI to address the matter.
Reason: It was observed that requirement will lead to recognition of revenue in the financial
statements by real estate developers based on the completion method, i.e., only in the last year
of the completion of project. It was felt that in case the revenue for the whole project is
recognised in the last year of completion of project, it will not reflect the true performance of the
business of the real estate developer. Further, it was felt that since Ind AS 11 requires
recognition of revenue of all construction contracts by reference to stage of completion, it may
lead to inappropriate accounting in case of certain real estate development projects in case this
Ind AS is applied for all real estate development projects. Therefore, it was considered
appropriate that rather than making changes in Ind AS 11 or Ind AS 18, a separate Guidance
note (for Ind AS-compliant entities) should be issued in line with the Guidance note on
Accounting for Real Estate Transactions issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of
India (for entities on which AS are applicable).
6.2 Not Resulting in Carve Out
1. Recognition and Measurement of Interest: Paragraph 1A is inserted in Ind AS 18 which
states that recognition of interest is dealt in this standard whereas measurement of interest is
dealt in accordance with Ind AS 109, Financial Instruments.
2. Impairment of Contractual Right: Paragraph 1B is inserted in Ind AS 18, which
prescribes the impairment of any contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset
arising from this standard, shall be dealt in accordance with Ind AS 109, Financial Instruments.
7. Major Changes in Ind AS 18 vis--vis Notified AS 9
(i) Definition of Revenue: Definition of revenue given in Ind AS 18 is broad compared to
the definition of revenue given in existing AS 9 because it covers all economic benefits
The term IFRS includes not only the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) issued by
the IASB, it also includes the International Accounting Standards (IASs), IFRICs and SICs.
that arise in the ordinary course of activities of an entity which result in increases in equity,
other than increases relating to contributions from equity participants. On the other hand,
as per the existing AS 9, revenue is gross inflow of cash, receivables or other consideration
arising in the course of the ordinary activities of an enterprise from the sale of goods, from
the rendering of services, and from the use by others of enterprise resources yielding
interest, royalties and dividends.
(ii) Measurement of Revenue: Measurement of revenue is briefly covered in the definition of
revenue in the existing AS 9, while Ind AS 18 deals separately in detail with measurement
of revenue. As per existing AS 9, revenue is recognised at the nominal amount of
consideration receivable. Ind AS 18 requires the revenue to be measured at fair value of
the consideration received or receivable.
(iii) Barter Transactions: Ind AS 18 specifically deals with the exchange of goods and
services with goods and services of similar and dissimilar nature. In this regard specific
guidance is given regarding barter transactions involving advertising services. This aspect
is not dealt with in the existing AS 9.
(iv) Recognition of Separately Identifiable Components: Ind AS 18 provides guidance on
application of recognition criteria to the separately identifiable components of a single
transaction in order to reflect the substance of the transaction. Existing AS 9 does not
specifically deal with the same.
(v) Recognition of Interest: Existing AS 9 requires the recognition of revenue from interest
on time proportion basis. Ind AS 18 requires interest to be recognised using effective
interest rate method as set out in Ind AS 109, Financial Instruments.
(vi) Guidance Regarding Revenue Recognition in Specific Cases: Ind AS 18 specifically
provides guidance regarding revenue recognition in case the entity is under any obligation
to provide free or discounted goods or services or award credits to its customers due to
any customer loyalty programme. Existing AS 9 does not deal with this aspect.
(vii) Disclosure of Excise Duty: Existing AS 9 specifically deals with disclosure of excise duty
as a deduction from revenue from sales transactions. Ind AS 18 does not specifically deal
with the same.
(viii) Disclosure Requirements: Disclosure requirements given in the Ind AS 18 are more
detailed as compared to existing AS 9.
Appendix III
(c) in any other way in accordance with the Companies (Corporate Social Responsibility
Policy) Rules, 2014, e.g. on its own.
In case a contribution is made to a fund specified in Schedule VII to the Act, the same would be
treated as an expense for the year and charged to the statement of profit and loss. In case the
amount is spent in the manner as specified in paragraph10 (b) above the same will also be
treated as expense for the year by charging off to the statement of profit and loss. The
accounting for expenditure incurred by the company otherwise e.g. on its own would be
accounted for in accordance with the principles of accounting as explained hereinafter.
In case the expenditure incurred by the company is of such nature which may give rise to an
asset, a question may arise as to whether such an asset should be recognised by the company
in its balance sheet. In this context, it would be relevant to note the definition of the term asset.
Invariably future economic benefits from a CSR asset would not flow to the company as any
surplus from CSR cannot be included by the company in business profits in view of Rule 6(2) of
the Companies (Corporate Social Responsibility Policy) Rules, 2014.
In some cases, a company may supply goods manufactured by it or render services as CSR
activities. In such cases, the expenditure incurred should be recognised when the control on the
goods manufactured by it is transferred or the allowable services are rendered by the
employees. The goods manufactured by the company should be valued in accordance with the
principles prescribed in Accounting Standard (AS) 2, Valuation of Inventories. The services
rendered should be measured at cost. Indirect taxes (like excise duty, service tax, VAT or other
applicable taxes) on the goods and services so contributed will also form part of the CSR
expenditure.
Where a company receives a grant from others for carrying out CSR activities, the CSR
expenditure should be measured net of the grant.
Rule 6 (2) of the Companies (Corporate Social Responsibility Policy) Rules, 2014, requires that
the surplus arising out of the CSR projects or programs or activities shall not form part of the
business profit of a company any surplus arising out of CSR project or programme or activities
shall be recognised in the statement of profit and loss and since this surplus cannot be a part
of business profits of the company, the same should immediately be recognised as liability for
CSR expenditure in the balance sheet and recognised as a charge to the statement of profit and
loss. Accordingly, such surplus would not form part of the minimum 2% of the average net
profits of the company made during the three immediately preceding financial years in
pursuance of its Corporate Social Responsibility Policy.
It is recommended that all expenditure on CSR activities, that qualify to be recognised as
expense in accordance with paragraphs 10-14 above should be recognised as a separate line
item as CSR expenditure in the statement of profit and loss. Further, the relevant note should
disclose the break-up of various heads of expenses included in the line item CSR expenditure.
or internal, differs, i.e., higher or lower from the indicative useful life given under Schedule II,
the former should be applied by the company for providing depreciation. The disclosures in this
regard should be made as described later in this Guidance Note. The process of determination
of useful life is explained in the chart below. A company has to determine the useful life at the
beginning of the year for all fixed assets, existing as at the end of the immediately preceding
period and for newly acquired assets, as and when acquired. All fixed assets existing at the
beginning of the year should be classified into assets for which no extra shift depreciation is
applicable which would include continuous process plant (CPP) and assets for which extra shift
depreciation applies. Of the assets for which extra shift depreciation applies, assets which are
going to be used on single shift, double shift or triple shift are segregated. This segregation is
required as the extra shift depreciation is applicable only to those assets whose useful life is
determined on single shift basis. After segregation, the remaining useful life of the asset is
estimated. A company recognises depreciation expense based on the useful life estimated by
the management. Where the useful life estimated by the management is different from that
specified by Schedule II, the same is disclosed in notes.
Illustration
A Limited is a company incorporated under the Companies Act, 1956, engaged in the business of
manufacturing of toys. A Limited purchased a unit of machinery costing ` 60 lakhs as on April 01, 2014.
As per Schedule II the general useful life of the assets is15 years. However, as per A Ltd.s estimation,
the useful life of the asset is 20 years supported by the technical advice.
Should the company use the useful life as 15 years or 20 years?
Solution
In this case, keeping in view the requirements under Schedule II, A Ltd. should depreciate the machinery
over its useful life of 20 years as determined by the company and not over 15 years as indicated in
Schedule II. A limited should also provide disclosures in this regard as recommended later in this
Guidance Note in the notes to accounts to justify the reason for difference between the indicative use life
and As estimated useful life.
Illustration
B Limited had considered the minimum rates of depreciation mentioned in Schedule XIV for depreciating
all its fixed assets till March 31, 2014. Based on the rates mentioned for SLM and WDV in Schedule XIV,
B Limited had derived the useful lives for the assets. Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 is now
applicable to B Limited w.e.f. April 1, 2014.
Whether B Limited needs to follow the useful lives mentioned in the Schedule II or derived useful lives
considered till March 31, 2013 can be considered?
Solution
W.e.f. April 1, 2014, B limited should estimate the remaining useful lives of its assets based on the
definition of useful life in Schedule II and the factors specified in AS 6 for recognising depreciation in the
statement of profit and loss. There is no relevance of the derived useful life as per Schedule XIV.
However, if B Limited estimates useful lives different from those specified in Schedule II, it should
disclose such differences in the financial statements and provide justification in this behalf duly supported
by technical advice.
a result of application of Schedule II, a company may use UOP method, where appropriate,
keeping in view the various factors mentioned in paragraph 12 of AS 6. UOP method is generally
considered appropriate where the number of units that can be produced or serviced from the
use of the asset is the major limiting factor for the use of the asset rather than the time.
with the introduction of UOP method in Schedule II, a company may change from SLM or WDV
method to UOP method. In such cases, in accordance with AS 6, depreciation on the underlying
asset should be calculated retrospectively using the UOP method from the date the asset came
into use to the company with adjustment of any surplus or deficiency arising from change in
method to the statement of profit and loss as such change is required by the statute. However,
as a first time application of Schedule II, if a company changes its method of depreciation from
WDV to SLM or vice versa, the same cannot be justified as required by law as both the methods
were allowed under Schedule XIV and AS 6. In accordance with AS 6, a shift from WDV to SLM
or vice versa can only be applied by the company if it is considered that the change would result
in a more appropriate preparation or presentation of the financial statements of the company.
In such a case also, any surplus or deficiency arising from change in method should be adjusted
to the statement of profit and loss in accordance with AS 6. It may also be noted that in case of
change in method of depreciation, transitional provisions given under Note 7 (b) of Schedule II
will not apply.
Illustration:
A Limited is a company incorporated under the Companies Act and engaged in the business of oil
exploration. Keeping in view the requirement in Schedule XIV it was depreciating its oil and gas assets
on SLM basis. In the financial year 2014-15, when A applies Schedule II it decides to depreciate the said
assets by following the UOP method.
How should change in method be accounted for?
Solution
In this case, in accordance with AS 6, A Limited should calculate depreciation on all such assets following
the UOP method since the assets came into existence and recognise any deficiency/gain in the statement
of profit and loss for the period ending on March 31, 2015.
Useful life specified in Part C of the Schedule is for whole of the asset. Where cost of a part of
the asset is significant to total cost of the asset and useful life of that part is different from the
useful life of the remaining asset, useful life of that significant part shall be determined
separately. It is commonly known as component accounting. Companies will need to identify
and depreciate significant components with different useful lives separately.
Under component accounting, companies will capitalise these costs as a separate component
of the asset and decapitalise the carrying amount of previously recognised component. A
company is required to apply component accounting (if appropriate) for all depreciable fixed
assets (existing or newly acquired) as at 1 April 2014 if a company opts to follow it voluntarily
and as at 1 April, 2015 mandatorily. However, if the carrying amount of any asset is lower than
or equal to the estimated residual value of the asset(s), company is not required to apply
component accounting for such asset(s).
The company must split the fixed asset into various identifiable parts to the extent possible. The
identified parts should be grouped together if they have the same or similar useful life for the
purpose of separate depreciation. Insignificant parts may be combined together in the remainder
of the asset or with the principal asset.
It may be noted that Schedule II does not prescribe any such requirement to provide
depreciation at the rate of hundred percent. Therefore, an issue may arise whether the earlier
requirement of providing hundred percent depreciation on assets with value less than rupees
five thousand can still be followed or not.
As the life of the asset is a matter of estimation, the materiality of impact of such charge should
be considered with reference to the cost of asset. The size of the company will also be a factor
to be considered for such policy. Accordingly, a company may have a policy to fully depreciate
assets upto certain threshold limits considering materiality aspect in the year of acquisition.
The company may group additions and disposals in appropriate time period(s), e.g., 15 days, a
month, a quarter etc., for the purpose of charging pro rata depreciation in respect of additions
and disposals of its assets keeping in view the materiality of the amounts involved.
The use of different methods for similar assets at different geographical locations is not justified.

SUGGESTED ANSWERS/HINTS
1. (a) (i) Tangible objects or intangible rights carrying probable future benefits, owned by
an enterprise are called assets. Suraj Ltd. sells these empty bottles by calling
tenders. It means further benefits are accrued on its sale. Therefore, empty
bottles are assets for the company.
(ii) As per AS 2 Valuation of Inventories, inventories are assets held for sale in the
ordinary course of business. Inventory of empty bottles existing on the Balance
Sheet date is the inventory and Suraj Ltd. has detailed controlled recording and
accounting procedure which duly signify its materiality. Hence inventory of
empty bottles cannot be considered as scrap and should be valued as inventory
in accordance with AS 2.
(b) As per the facts of the case, Hygiene Ltd. had received a grant of ` 50 lakh in 2008
from a State Government towards installation of pollution control machinery on
fulfilment of certain conditions. However, the amount of grant has to be refunded
since it failed to comply with the prescribed conditions. In such circumstances,
AS 12, Accounting for Government Grants, requires that the amount refundable in
respect of a government grant related to a specific fixed asset is recorded by
increasing the book value of the asset or by reducing the capital reserve or the
deferred income balance, as appropriate, by the amount refundable. The Standard
further makes it clear that in the first alternative, i.e., where the book value of the
asset is increased, depreciation on the revised book value should be provided
prospectively over the residual useful life of the asset. Accordingly, the accounting
treatment given by Hygiene Ltd. of increasing the value of the plant and machinery is
quite proper. However, the accounting treatment in respect of depreciation given by
In the present case, monthly rental towards licence fee and variable licence fee as
a percentage on the turnover of the tenant though on annual basis is the income
related to common financial year. Therefore, recognising the fee as revenue cannot
be deferred simply because the invoice is raised in subsequent period. Hence it
should be recognised in the financial year of accrual.
Therefore, the contention of the Chief Financial Officer is not in accordance with
AS 9.
(b) AS 16 clearly states that capitalization of borrowing costs should cease when
substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended
use are completed. Therefore, interest on the amount that has been used for the
construction of the building upto the date of completion (January, 2017) i.e. ` 18 lakhs
alone can be capitalized. It cannot be extended to ` 25 lakhs.
4. (a) As per para 29 of AS 25 Interim Financial Reporting, income tax expense is

company's management that the operating cycle of the product lotus wine is 18
months and not 12 months is correct. H. Ltd. will classify the raw material purchased
and held in stock as current asset in its Balance Sheet.
9. (a) As per IFRS: IAS 17 requires all leases rentals to be charged to Statement of Profit
and Loss on straight-line basis in case of operating leases unless another systematic
basis is more representative of the time pattern of the users benefit even if the
payments to the lessor are not on that basis.
Carve out: A carve-out has been made to provide that lease rentals, in case of
operating leases, shall be charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in accordance
with the lease agreement unless the payments to the lessor are structured to increase
in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the lessors expected
inflationary cost increases. If payments to the lessor vary because of factors other
than general inflation, then this condition is not met.
Reason: Companies enter into various kinds of lease agreements to get the right to
use an asset of the lessor. Considering the Indian inflationary situation, lease
agreements contain periodic rent escalation. Accordingly, where there is periodic
rent escalation in line with the expected inflation so as to compensate the lessor for
expected inflationary cost increases, the rentals shall not be straight-lined.
(b) Major Changes in Ind AS 12 vis--vis AS 22
(i) Approach for creating Deferred Tax: Ind AS 12 is based on balance sheet
approach. It requires recognition of tax consequences of differences between
the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax base. AS 22 is based
on income statement approach. It requires recognition of tax consequences of
differences between taxable income and accounting income. For this purpose,
differences between taxable income.
(ii) Limited Exceptions for Recognition of Deferred Tax Asset: As per
Ind AS 12, subject to limited exceptions, deferred tax asset is recognised for all
deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable
profit will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be
utilised. The criteria for recognising deferred tax assets arising from the carry
forward of unused tax losses and tax credits are the same that for recognising
deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences. However, the
existence of unused tax losses is strong evidence that future taxable profit may
not be available. Therefore, when an entity has a history of recent losses, the
entity recognises a deferred tax asset arising from unused tax losses or tax
credits only to the extent that the entity has sufficient taxable temporary
differences or there is convincing other evidence that sufficient taxable profit will
be available against which the unused tax losses or unused tax credits can be
utilised by the entity.
As per AS 22, deferred tax assets are recognised and carried forward only to
the extent that there is a reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable
income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised.
Where deferred tax asset is recognised against unabsorbed depreciation or
carry forward of losses under tax laws, it is recognised only to the extent that
there is virtual certainty supported by convincing evidence that sufficient future
taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be
realised.
(iii) Recognition of Current and Deferred Tax: As per Ind AS 12, current and
deferred tax are recognised as income or an expense and included in profit or
loss for the period, except to the extent that the tax arises from a transaction or
event which is recognised outside profit or loss, either in other comprehensive
income or directly in equity, in those cases tax is also recognised in other
comprehensive income or in equity, as appropriate. AS 22 does not specifically
deal with this aspect.
(iv) Disclosure of DTA and DTL in Balance Sheet: AS 22 deals with disclosure
of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities in the balance sheet.
Ind AS 12 does not deal with this aspect except that it requires that income tax
relating to each component of other comprehensive income shall be disclosed
as current or non-current asset/liability in accordance with the requirements of
Ind AS 1.
(v) Disclosure Requirements: Disclosure requirements given in the Ind AS 12 are
more detailed as compared to AS 22.
(vi) DTA/DTL arising out of Revaluation of Assets: Ind AS 12 requires that
deferred tax asset/liability arising from revaluation of non-depreciable assets
shall be measured on the basis of tax consequences from the sale of asset
rather than through use. AS 22 does not deal with this aspect.
(vii) Changes in Entities Tax Status or that of its Shareholders: Ind AS 12
provides guidance as to how an entity should account for the tax consequences
of a change in its tax status or that of its shareholders. AS 22 does not deal with
this aspect.
(viii) Virtual Certainty: AS 22 explains virtual certainty supported by convincing
evidence. Since the concept of virtual certainty does not exist in Ind AS 12, this
explanation is not included.
(ix) Guidance for Recognition of Deferred Tax in a Tax Holiday Period: AS 22
specifically provides guidance regarding recognition of deferred tax in the
situations of Tax Holiday under Sections 80-IA and 80-IB and Tax Holiday under
Sections 10A and 10B of the Income Tax Act, 1961. Similarly, AS 22 provides
guidance regarding recognition of deferred tax asset in case of loss under the
head capital gains. Ind AS 12 does not specifically deal with these situations.
(x) Guidance on Certain Issues: AS 22 specifically provides guidance regarding
tax rates to be applied in measuring deferred tax assets/liabilities in a situation
where a company pays tax under section 115JB. Ind AS 12 does not specifically
deal with this aspect.
