INVENTORY VALUATIONEssay Questions
Inventory Estimation Methods
What are the reasons for making an estimate of inventory?
Determination of inventory loss due to fire and other catastrophe or theft of merchandise.
Proof of the reasonable accuracy of a physical count. This is popularly known as the "gross profit test."
Preparation of interim statements or statements of less than one year. Interim statements are usually for a quarter.
However, year-end statements require physical count, not a mere estimate of inventory value.
Gross profit method 2. Explain the gross profit method of estimating the cost of ending inventory.
Under the gross profit method, the ending inventory is computed as "goods available for sale minus cost of sales".
The cost of sales is determined through the use of the gross profit rate and this is the reason the gross profit method is called as such.
This method is based on the major assumption that the rate of gross profit remains approximately the same from period to period and therefore the ratio of cost of goods sold to net sales is relatively constant from period to period.
Retail inventory method 3. Explain the retail method of estimating the cost of ending inventory.
The retail inventory method came to its name because the selling price or retail price is tagged to each item and therefore the ending inventory is stated selling price.
The ending inventory is computed as follows:
Goods available for sale selling price minus net sales equals ending inventory selling
Inventory – Cost Estimation
Essay Questions: Inventory – Cost Estimation Page 5
price which is multiplied by the cost ratio to get the inventory cost.
The cost ratio under the retail method is computed by dividing the goods available for sale cost by the goods available for sale selling price.
What are the four applications of the retail inventory method?
Conservative approach - The cost ratio is determined by including markups and excluding markdowns in computing the goods available for sale retail. This approach is also known as the conventional or lower of average cost or market approach.
Average cost approach - The markups and markdowns are both included in the computation of the cost ratio.
FIFO approach - A cost ratio is computed for the current year. Thus, only the current purchases are considered together with markups and markdowns. The beginning inventory is excluded in the computation.
LIFO approach - The cost ratio is computed following the same procedure under FIFO approach. Thus, the FIFO and LIFO would have the same cost ratio for the current year.
Which approach is followed in measuring inventory under the retail inventory method?
PAS 2, paragraph 22, provides that the percentage used under the retail method shall take into consideration inventory that has been marked down to below its original selling price.
An average percentage for each retail department is often used.
This means that the average cost approach shall be applied in conjunction with the retail inventory method.
Of course, PAS 2 requires either the FIFO or average method as a cost formula.
Define the following:
Original retail
Initial markup
Additional markup
Markup cancelation

Essay Questions: Biological Assets Page 7
Harvest is the detachment of produce from a biological asset or the cessation of a biological asset's life processes.
Give examples of biological assets, agricultural produce and products that are the result of processing after harvest.The following table provides examples of biological assets, agricultural produce and products that are the result of processing after harvest.
Biological asset Agricultural Product produce after harvest
Sheep Wool Yarn, carpetTrees in plantation forest Felled trees Logs, lumberPlant Harvested cane SugarDairy cattle Milk CheesePigs Carcass Sausage, cured hamBushes Leaf Tea, cured tobaccoVines Grapes WineFruit trees Picked fruit Processed fruitAgain, the measurement of biological assets and agricultural produce is covered by PAS 41 and the measurement of products after harvest is covered by PAS 2 on inventories.
Define agricultural activity and biological transformation.Agricultural activity or simply "agriculture" is the management by an entity of the biological transformation and harvest of biological assets for sale or for conversion into agricultural produce or into additional biological assets.
Biological transformation comprises the processes of growth, degeneration, production and procreation that cause qualitative or quantitative changes in a biological asset.
Give examples of agricultural activity.Agricultural activity covers a diverse range of activities such as the following:
Raising livestockAnnual or perennial croppingCultivating orchards and plantationsFloricultureFINANCIAL ACCOUNTING
Essay Questions: Biological Assets Page 8
Aquaculture, including fish farming
What are the common features of agricultural activity?
The common features of agricultural activity are as follows: a. Capability to change b. Management of change c. Measurement of change
Capability to change Living animals and plants are capable of biological transformation.
Management of change The agricultural activity must be "managed" to facilitate biological transformation by enhancing or least stabilizing conditions necessary for the process to take place.
Such management distinguishes agricultural activity from other activities.
For example, harvesting from "unmanaged" sources, such as ocean fishing and deforestation, is not agricultural activity.
Measurement of change The change in quality or quantity brought about by biological transformation or harvest is measured and monitored as a routine management function.
Give examples of biological transformation. Biological transformation results from the following types of outcome:
Asset changes through: a. Growth - an increase in quantity or improvement in quality of an animal or plant. b. Degeneration - a decrease in quantity or deterioration in quality of an animal or plant. c. Procreation - creation of additional living animal or plant.Production of agricultural produce such as latex, tea leaf, wool and milk.What are the conditions for the recognition of a biological asset or agricultural produce? An entity shall recognize a biological asset or an agricultural produce when:
The entity controls the asset as a result of past sự kiện.It is probable that future economic benefits associated with the asset will flow to the entity.FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING

The prevailing view is that the fair value of agricultural produce the point of harvest can always be measured reliably.
The fair value measurement of agricultural produce stops the time of harvest. After that date, PAS 2 on inventory shall apply.
In other words, the harvested product becomes an inventory and shall be measured subsequently the lower of cost and net realizable value.
The harvested product is recorded by debiting inventory and crediting gain from change in fair value.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants the measurement date. PFRS 13, paragraph 72, enumerates the fair value hierarchy or best evidence of fair value as follows:
Level 1 inputs are the quoted prices in an active market for identical assets. An active market is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient regularity and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. A principal market is the market with the greatest volume and level of activity for the asset or liability.Level 2 inputs are observable inputs either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets in an active market and quoted prices for identical or similar assets in an inactive market.Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset usually developed by the entity using the best available information from the entity's own data. An example is the financial forecast of expected cash inflows from the asset.Explain the treatment of gain or loss from the fair value measurement of biological asset and agricultural produce. A gain or loss arising on initial recognition of a biological asset fair value less cost of disposal and any subsequent changes in fair value cost of disposal shall be included in profit or loss. A loss may arise on initial recognition of a biological asset because cost of disposal is deducted in determining fair value loss cost of disposal of a biological asset.
A gain may arise on initial recognition of a biological asset, for example, when a calf is born.
A gain or loss arising from initial recognition of agricultural produce fair value less cost of disposal shall also be included in profit or loss.
Biological Assets
Essay Questions: Biological Assets Page 11
A gain or loss may arise on initial recognition of agricultural produce as a result of harvesting.
An entity shall disclose the aggregate gain or loss arising on the initial recognition of biological asset and agricultural produce and from the change in fair value less cost of disposal of biological asset.
Is agricultural land a biological asset? Agricultural land is not a biological asset.The principles espoused in PAS 41 for biological assets and agricultural produce do not apply to agricultural land.
The requirements of PAS 16 which are applicable to property, plant and equipment apply equally to agricultural land for purposes of measurement.
Explain the fair value measurement of biological assets physically attached to land.Biological assets are often physically attached to land, for example, trees in a plantation forest.
There may be no separate market for biological assets that are attached to the land but an active market may exist for the combined assets, that is, for the biological assets and land as a package.
An entity may use information regarding the combined assets to determine the fair value of the biological assets.
For example, the fair value of the land may be deducted from the fair value of the combined assets to arrive the fair value of the trees in the plantation forest.
Explain the treatment of a government grant related to:
Biological asset measured fair value less cost of disposal.
Biological asset measured cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.
An unconditional government grant related to a biological asset that has been measured fair value less cost of disposal shall be recognized in profit or loss when the grant
