The following notes are relevant:
i) Non-current assets:
On 1 April 2022 the directors of Atlas Co decided that the financial statements
would show an improved position if the land and buildings were revalued to market
value. At that date an independent valuer valued the land at 12 million and the
buildings at 35 million and these valuations were accepted by the directors. The
remaining life of the buildings at that date was 14 years. Atlas Co does not make
a transfer to retained earnings for excess depreciation. Ignore deferred tax on the
revaluation surplus.
Plant and equipment is depreciated at 20% per annum using the reducing balance
method and time apportioned as appropriate. All depreciation is charged to cost of
sales, but none has yet been charged on any non-current asset for the year ended
31 March 2023.
ii) Atlas Co estimates that an income tax provision of 27.2 million is required for the
year ended 31 March 20X3 and at that date the liability to deferred tax is 9.4
million. The movement on deferred tax should be taken to profit or loss. The
balance on current tax in the trial balance represents the under/over provision of
the tax liability for the year ended 31 March 2022.
Required
a) Prepare the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for Atlas Co
for the year ended 31 March 2023.
The following trial balance relates to Atlas Co as 31 March 2023.
(b) Prepare the statement of financial position of Atlas Co as at 31 March 2023.
(c) Calculate basic earnings per share for the year ended 31 March 2023.
