Case Scenario: 3
AbdulSalam LLC’s financial position as of 30th September 2020 is as
follows:
Statement of Finanancial Position
Equity and Liabilities | OMR’000 | Assets | OMR’000 |
Share capital | 5260 | Inventory : Raw Materials | 2500 |
Debentures | 1540 | Inventory : Finish goods | 3000 |
Net Profits | 2500 | Other assets | 3800 |
9300 | 9300 |
The company management has been decided the following ‘creative
accounting’ measures:
a) Inventory: Raw Materials - Increase the raw material inventory
by OMR 300 000 to represent low provision for obsolete raw
materials.
b) Inventory: Finish goods – Decrease the finish good inventory by
OMR 100 000 to represent damaged finish goods.
The question: Redraft the Statement of Financial Position
as of 30th September 2020 to reflect the above Creative Accounting
measures.
Redrafted Statement of Financial position as of September 30th, 2020
Equity and Liability | OMR '000' | Assets | OMR '000' |
Share capital | 5260 | Inventory: Raw material (Increase by OMR 300000 as per 'creative accounting' measures) |
2800 |
Debentures | 1540 | Inventory: Finished goods (Decrease by OMR 100000 as per 'creative accounting' measure) |
2900 |
Net profits | 2700 | Other assets | 3800 |
9500 | 9500 |
(Rise of Raw material inventory by OMR 300000 and reduction of finished goods inventory by OMR 100000, ultimately increases the total assets by OMR 200000. This overstates the Net income by similar amount as well raising it from OMR 2500000 to OMR 2700000.Only then can the Statement of financial position tally)
