Additional Information:

i) Administrative expenses include an equity dividend of 12 million paid during the year.

ii) The 5% convertible loan note was issued for proceeds of 20 million on 1 October 2015.It has an effective interest rate of 8% due to the value of its conversion option.

iii) The equity investments (the GH26.5 million in the trial balance) have a fair value of GH29 million at 30 September 2017. The other reserve in the trial balance represents the net increase in the value of the equity investments as at 1 October 2016. Obaa Yaa Ltd made an irrevocable decision at initial recognition of these instruments to recognise all changes in fair value through other comprehensive income, and makes a transfer of realised profit from the other reserve to profit or loss on disposal of the investments. Ignore deferred tax on these transactions.

iv) The balance on current tax represents the under/over provision of the tax liability for the year ended 30 September 2016. The directors have estimated the provision for income tax for the year ended 30 September 2017 at GH16.2 million. At 30 September 2017 the

carrying amounts of Obaa Yaa Ltd.s net assets were GH13 million in excess of their tax

base. The income tax rate of Obaa Yaa Ltd is 30%.

v) Non-current assets

The freehold property has a land element of GH13 million. The building element is

being depreciated on a straight-line basis at 2%. Plant and equipment is depreciated at 25% per annum using the reducing balance method.

vi) Obaa Yaa Ltd's brand in the trial balance relates to a product line that received bad publicity during the year which led to falling sales revenues. An impairment review was conducted on 1 October 2016 which concluded that, based on estimated future sales, the brand had a value in use of GH12 million and a remaining life of only three years. However, on the same date as the impairment review, Obaa Yaa Ltd received an offer to purchase the brand for GH15 million.

Prior to the impairment review, it was being depreciated using the straight-line method

over a 10-year life. No depreciation/amortisation has yet been charged on any non-current

asset for the year ended 30 September 2017.

Depreciation, amortisation and impairment charges are all charged to cost of sales.
