QUESTION 1 Kasabrunu Enterprise is a business operating in the second-hand clothing in Kwadaso. Mr. Bruni the owner of Kasabrunu Enterprise (KE) employed Mr. Ojidomi a BSc. Accounting graduate as the Accountant. Business is booming and KE is expected to be in operation for a long time. Mr. Odjidomi has been with the business for 5 years and has assured Mr. Bruni that profits declared will not be deceptive since the same method will be continuously used for the accounting treatment of similar items until Mr. Bruni decides to change from dealing in second hand clothing to the purchase and sale of spare parts which they discussed. As part of the policy adopted by the business, the Accountant records only transactions that can be valued in monetary terms in the books of account and produces financial information at regular period for the perusal of Mr. Bruni. On reaching home, Sefakor Ojidomi, the daughter of Mr. Ojidomi who is pursuing an accounting programme in Owusuwusu College of Accountancy asked his father to guide her with an assignment. Sikadanka, the Chairman and CEO of Defenders Ltd recently confronted the Chief Accountant of the company over the way and manner the financial statements were presented for the 2019 financial year. The following points are summaries of the CEOs reservations about the financial statements: a. He argued that the values of the companys assets be shown at current market values since these values will provide a better view of the companys value. The Chief Accountant is still insisting that the assets should be stated at original cost. b. He expressed shock when the financial statements did not show a value for the companys efficient staff. He argued that the companys beautiful and handsome sales personnel are valuable assets used to attract customers and therefore insisted that this power of attraction should be recognised in the books of accounts and reflected on the face of the financial statement. c. He was worried when a potential sale of millions of Ghana cedis to a certain buyer from whom purchase orders have been received have not been recognized in the books of accounts as sales. The Chief Accountant argued that these potential customers have only been sent pro-forma invoices and so are not obliged to pay the company. d. The CEO recently bought a saloon car for his son out of company funds. The Chief Accountant recorded this on a current account for the CEO. This resulted in an intense argument. The CEO threatened to dismiss the Chief Accountant should he refuse to recognize the purchase of the saloon car as a transaction of the company. e. The CEO insisted that the value of expired inventory should be maintained in the books of accounts and not written off. Sefakor presented the assignment and scored a 100% for the 1st time. On the 27th of March, 2019, Mr. Ogboro, the purchasing officer of KE prepared documents to purchase on credit 1,500 bales of second-hand clothing from Osimeyo and brothers (OB.). O.B delivered the goods to KE 4 (four) days after the order was placed with all appropriate documents. KE only deals in male second-hand clothing but included in the goods delivered were 15 bales of ladies second-hand clothing which Mr. Ogboro returned to OB as it did not meet the description provided. Customers purchased the goods either on credit or outright payment with cash or cheque. Documents showing evidence of payment were given to these customers.
