Part A

1. Prepare a memo to the directors, explaining the methods available for classifying expenses on the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and give examples of expense items for each method. Advise the directors which method of classification the company should opt for and any other factors that need to be considered when selecting between the available methods. Support your answers by making references to specific paragraphs from AASB 101. For the purpose of illustrating the differences in the methods discussed, prepare the statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income using each of the available methods, for the year ended 30 June 2020, in accordance with AASB 101.
2. Prepare the statement of financial position of Fast Motion Ltd as at 30 June 2020, in accordance with AASB 101. Notes and comparative figures are not required.

Tips for completing Part A:

1. Use the line items that a listed company is likely to use and refer to paragraphs 54, 82, 82A, 102 and 103 of AASB 101 in determining the line items to be presented;
2. Show all relevant workings, for example, how amounts in the financial statements have been calculated to support the figures presented in the statements;

Part B

The following events occurred after the preparation of statements were completed in Part A above.

Event 1

On 1 July 2020, the directors are reviewing the depreciation policy of a plant specially designed to produce R100 masks. The plant is currently depreciated at 20% on a straight-line basis. After reviewing the development of COVID-19 lately, the directors think that the plant would best be depreciated at 35% on a reducing-balance basis. This change is considered material in Fast Motion Ltds case.

Required:

1. Advise the directors if the above situation would constitute a change in accounting policy or a change in accounting estimate. Explain and support your answers by making references to specific paragraphs in AASB108 and/or AASB 116.
2. Explain to the directors the relevant adjustments and/or disclosure notes required as a result of this change for the financial years ended 30 June 2020 and 30 June 2021. Note: you are not required to show any adjustments and/or prepare any disclosure notes.

Fast Motion Ltd is to receive a liquidation distribution of 20 cents in every dollar. The amount of doubtful debts allowed for in relation to Snow Ltds debt amounts to $1,590 (included in the allowance for doubtful debts in Part A).

The financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2020 were authorised for issue by the directors on 28 August 2020.
