Q2.
Gamma prepares consolidated financial statements to 31 March each year. Notes 1 and 2 contain information relevant to these financial statements: Note 1 Impairment of goodwill On 1 April 20X3, Gamma purchased 75% of the equity shares of subsidiary X for a cash payment of $99 million. The fair value of the net assets of subsidiary X on that date was $108 million. Gamma measured the non-controlling interest in subsidiary X using the proportionate method. On 31 March 20X4, Gamma reviewed the goodwill on acquisition of subsidiary X for impairment but no impairment was evident. On 31 March 20X5, the carrying amount of the net assets of subsidiary X in the consolidated financial statements of Gamma (excluding goodwill on acquisition) was $115 million. Subsidiary X is a single cash-generating unit for impairment purposes. On 31 March 20X5, the value in use of subsidiary X was $135 million and its fair value less costs of disposal was $130 million. (8 marks) Note 2 Purchase of machine On 1 January 20X4, Gamma entered into a firm commitment to purchase a machine from a supplier whose functional currency is the kroner. This firm commitment was not an onerous contract. The cost of the machine was 144 million kroner and the agreed delivery date was 30 June 20X4. Gamma was due to pay 144 million kroner to the supplier on 31 July 20X4. On 1 January 20X4, Gamma entered into a forward exchange contract with a bank to purchase 144 million kroner for $144 million on 31 July 20X4. The forward exchange contract was entered into so as to provide a hedge against the currency risk associated with the firm commitment to purchase the machine. On 30 June 20X4, Gamma took delivery of the machine and immediately brought the machine into use. Gamma estimated that the machine would have a useful life of five years from 30 June 20X4, with no residual value. On 31 July 20X4, Gamma paid 144 million kroner to the supplier of the machine and received payment of $360,000 from the bank in settlement of the forward exchange contract (see below). Gamma designated the forward exchange contract as a hedge of the cash flows expected to arise on the purchase of the machine. This contract was a perfectly effective hedge of those cash flows. Gamma wishes to use hedge accounting to reflect the above transactions in its financial statements. Relevant exchange rates and fair values of the forward exchange contract are as follows: Date Exchange rate Fair value of forward contract (kroners to $1) (favourable to Gamma) $000 1 January 20X4 10 Nil 31 March 20X4 96 60 30 June 20X4 9 160 31 July 20X4 8 360 (17 marks) Required: Using the information in notes 1 and 2, explain and show how the two events would be reported in the consolidated financial statements of Gamma for the year ended 31 March 20X5. Note: The mark allocations are indicated in each note above. Marks will be awarded for explanations as well as for computations.

On 1 October 20X4 Gamma began to lease a machine. The lease gave Gamma the sole right to direct the use of the machine and receive all the economic benefits arising from its use. The lease was for a five-year term, with annual rentals of $200,000 being payable in advance. The first rental was paid on 1 October 20X4 and the final rental is due for payment on 1 October 20X8. The total estimated useful life of the machine on 1 October 20X4 was ten years. There are no terms in the lease agreement that allow the lease to be extended beyond the five-year term. The annual rate of interest implicit in the lease is 8%. On 1 October 20X4 when the first rental was paid Gamma debited $200,000 to profit or loss.
