Answer ALL questions Question 1
[7]
As a recent Financial Management graduate you have been tasked with assisting the financial director (fd) with some queries relating to the December 2013 year end. The following conversation took place: Financial director: “I have heard that a liability is defined as a present obligation resulting from past events, the settlement of which leads to decreases in economic benefits.” You: “That is correct. I remember the use of the terms ‘present obligation’, ‘past event’ and ‘settlement resulting in the outflow of resources’ from my studies.” Financial director: “Great. We have recently purchased a new display stand at a local mall. This investment was financed through funds raised from a loan taken out on the 21st of November 2013 to the value of R55 000. The loan contract (which will be repaid in six years’ time) and purchase of the stand were all finalized on the 21st of November. However, I am not entirely sure how to account for the loan.” REQUIRED 1.1
By applying all the key terms of the definition of a liability, explain to the financial director whether the loan should be accounted for as a liability as at the 31st December 2013. (4)
