Q4. Whilst you have been assisting Berrimah Line Painting Ltd to produce the financial statements for the year ended 30th June 2016 you have discovered the following information about events that occurred after the end of the reporting period.
On 10th July 2016, a fire in a neighbouring property spread to the paint store and destroyed inventory and two line painting machines. The damage was estimated at $320,000. The insurance company has agreed to pay $240,000 but because the serious crimes squad is investigating the fire, the insurance payment has been delayed. The loss of the inventory and the machines has had a serious impact upon the businesss ability to service its existing contracts.
On 12th July 2016, a major competitor introduced a new method for line printing using new and improved paints and applicators. To maintain Berrimah Line Painting Ltds share of the market severe discounting has had to be implemented. This has resulted in the selling price of its paints being reduced to 50% of cost. The inventory in stock at 30th June 2016 had been recorded at a cost of $122,400.
On 12th August 2016, the Environmental Protection Agency gave notice to the company that, due to a leakage that had been traced to a paint store at the Bark Hut depôt, toxic material had seeped into a local watering hole. The leakage happened on 8th July 2016. An infringement notice had been issued and the matter was due to be heard in the local court. If the company is found to be negligent legal advice has suggested that the company will have to pay a fine of $280,000 together with legal fees and clean-up costs which could amount to $200,000.
On 13 August 2017, you discovered that inventory purchase invoices, totalling $30,120, relating to purchases made in June had not been entered onto the system.
On 30 August 2017, the company issued a prospectus offering 2,400 10% debentures of $100 each for public subscription. The debentures are redeemable on 1 October 2025. Interest is payable annually in arrears. The debentures are secured by a floating charge over the companys assets.
Assume all events and transactions are material.
Required
A. Examine the above events and identify which should be treated as adjusting events and which are non-adjusting events. You should provide a detailed justification for your classification.
B. Having determined the course of action that you would take based upon your classification prepare the necessary journal entries or note disclosures to comply with the requirements of AASB 110.
