Additional information:

(1) Revenue includes GHC100 million for an item of plant sold on 1 September 2014. The plant had a book value of GHC80 million at the date of its sale, which was charged to cost of sales. On the same date, Energiser entered into an agreement to lease back the plant for the next five years (being the estimated remaining life of the plant). Energiser has negotiated extended credit so that the first instalment of capital and interest on the lease falls after 31 December 2015, more than one year from the year end. An arrangement of this type is deemed to have financing cost of 12% per annum. No depreciation has been charged on the item of plant in the current year.

(2) The inventory at 31 December 2014 was valued at cost of GHC57 million. This includes GHC9 million of slow moving goods. Energiser believes that it will be able to sell these goods for only GHC4 million.

(3) The land and buildings cost of ghc300 million includes land at a cost of ghc60 million. The remaining life of the building as at 1 January 2014 was estimated at 40 years.

(4) Plant and equipment (other than that referred to in note 1 above) is depreciated at 20% per annum on the reducing balance basis. All depreciation is to be charged to cost of sales.

(5) The balance on the income tax account in the trial balance is the result of the settlement of the previous year’s tax charge. The directors have estimated the provision for income tax for the year to 31 December 2014 at GHC18.4 million. For the deferred tax provision, the only temporary differences are accelerated capital allowances.

At 31 December 2014 these temporary differences were GHC91 million. Assume an income tax rate of 30%.

(6) On 1 January 2014 Energiser issued a loan note, the details of which are:

Nominal value issued ghc60 million

Discount on issue 6%

Nominal interest rate 8%

The loan note is redeemable on 31 December 2017 at a premium of 10%. Interest is payable annually on 31 December. Energiser has not yet made any entries in respect of this loan note.

(7) The outstanding receivable balance of a major customer amounting to $12 million was factored to Debtco on 1 December 2014. The terms of the factoring were:

– Debtco will pay 80% of the gross debtor outstanding to Energiser immediately.

– The balance will be paid (less the charges below) when the trade receivable is collected in full. Any amount of the debt outstanding after four months will be transferred back to Energiser at its full book value.

– Debtco will charge 1% per month on the net amount owing fromEnergiser at the beginning of each month. Debtco had not collected any of the factored debtors by the yearend.

– Energiser debited the cash received from Debtco to its bank account and removed the debtor from its sales ledger. It has prudently charged the difference as an administration cost.

(8) The directors do not wish to propose a final ordinary dividend

Required:

Prepare Energiser’s statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2014 and its statement of financial position at that date. These should be in a form suitable for publication.
