ACCOUNTING METHOD II ASSIGNMENT SHARE ISSUES This assignment comprises four questions all dealing with share issue topics. The questions relate to: New share issue Share rights issue Forfeiture and reissue of shares Payment of dividends Each question is independent of the other questions. Not all of these areas have been covered in the Equity topic in Accounting Method II. In practice accountants are presented with issues which they are unfamiliar with and need to learn to resolve them. In part, that is what you are presented with here. To assist you, though, materials have been made available on MyUni. It also occurs that accountants are required to respond to queries and problems in relatively short time periods. This will be applied in this Assignment as you will have one (1) week to complete. The assignment will be released in MyUni on Tuesday the 9th May 2017 at 9:00am and the due time/date for submission is 11:00pm on Monday the 15th of May 2017. Late assignments will be penalised at a rate of 20% of the achieved mark per day (or part thereof). Students are advised to submit their assignment in advance of the due time/date to ensure that they do not encounter any submission problems. Your assignment needs to be submitted in pdf format - make sure you know how to do this. You submit it in MyUni under the Assignment tab. Please start each question on a new page. Your assignment must be typed using suitable software (eg Microsoft Word). Much of the assignment requires the preparation of general journal entries and general ledger T accounts. It is always important that the presentation of any work for someone else to read and interpret is of a professional standard. As a result ensure that your assignment is well formatted, easy to follow and is readable (including English and grammar). While there are no marks awarded for presentation, up to 10 marks can be deducted if the assignment does not meet these criteria. This Assignment must be your own work. Students are reminded of the various University plagiarism policies and any occurrences of plagiarism will be dealt with accordingly. Group assignments are not permitted. This Assignment will be marked out of 65 marks and this represents 10% of the overall assessment in the course Accounting Method II.
