QUESTION 1 (33 marks)(59 minutes)
On 2 January 20.18, Mkana Ltd issued 1 000 convertible bonds at par with a face value R1 500 per
bond, resulting in total proceeds of R1 500 000. These bonds are convertible into 150 ordinary shares
at the option of the holder, on 31 December 20.20. If not converted into shares, the bonds will be
settled in cash at face value. Interest is payable annually in arrears at a fixed interest rate of 7% per
annum. When the bonds were issued, the prevailing market interest rate for similar debt without a
conversion option was 9% per annum.
Mkana Ltd manages its liquidity risk by ensuring that the maturities of its financial assets and liabilities
match according to cash flow requirements and that the company has adequate access to credit.
Expected cash flow requirements are monitored with rolling cash flow budgets.

SOLUTION 1
CONVERTIBLE BONDS
The convertible bonds are a compound financial instrument. A compound financial
instrument consists of a liability and an equity component. First, you have to calculate the present
value of the liability component of the compound financial instrument. The difference between the
proceeds received and the liability component will be the equity component.
If the bonds are convertible in shares of the company or paid in cash at the option of the
holder, the issue of the bonds does not have an unconditional right to avoid paying both
the coupon and the R1 500 000 face value on maturity date. The liability component will
thus be calculated as the present value of the payments of R105 000, with the future
value as R1 500 000.
EQUITY COMPONENT OF CONVERTIBLE BONDS
The equity component of the bonds will be presented in the statement of changes in
equity under its own heading. It can then be transferred to other applicable items in the same
statement if the directors so wish.
