QUESTION 1 (17 marks) (20 minutes)
Muccro Ltd, a company in the retail industry, sells home and office furniture. Gammis Ltd is a company
that sells a variety of products, ranging from furniture, equipment, food and stationery. Muccro Ltd
purchased a 75% interest in Gammis Ltd to accomplish its growth strategy.
The following balances were extracted from the statements of changes in equity of Muccro Ltd and
Gammis Ltd as at 28 February 2018:
Muccro Gammis
Ltd Ltd
R R
Share capital
- Ordinary shares (500 000 and 305 000 shares respectively) .................. 1 750 000 1 220 000
Revaluation surplus: Land.......................................................................... 435 000 125 000
Retained earnings at the beginning of the year .......................................... 2 780 300 790 500
Profit for the year ....................................................................................... 575 250 390 030
Additional information
1. Muccro Ltd acquired its interest in the ordinary shares of Gammis Ltd on 1 June 2016. On this
date, Gammis Ltd had retained earnings amounting to R586 970. Assume each ordinary share
carries one vote and that voting rights alone determine control. The carrying amounts of the assets
and liabilities of Gammis Ltd were deemed equal to the fair values thereof at acquisition.
The issued share capital of both companies remained unchanged since acquisition.
2. On 28 February 2018, Gammis Ltd declared a dividend of 35 cents per ordinary share. The
dividends are payable on 31 May 2018. The secretary of the company could not complete the
administrative paperwork on time and this led to both Muccro Ltd and Gammis Ltd being unable
to make provision for the dividends in the accounting records at the end of the financial year.
3. The land of Gammis Ltd was revalued for the first time in the current year.
4. Included in the assets of Gammis Ltd, is office furniture purchased from Muccro Ltd on
1 October 2017. The carrying amount of the office furniture is R220 312 as at 28 February 2018.
The office furniture had a carrying value of R255 000 in the records of Muccro Ltd when
Gammis Ltd bought it for R235 000 from Muccro Ltd.
It is the policy of the group to provide for depreciation on the office furniture at 15% per annum on
the straight line method.
5. Since acquisition, Gammis Ltd sold inventory to Muccro Ltd at cost plus 20%. Inventory purchased
from Gammis Ltd during the year amounted to R80 000, of which R30 000 will still be delivered to
Muccro Ltd on 28 February 2018. Ownership has already passed to Muccro Ltd. Inventory
balances on hand were as follows at year end:
2018 2017
Muccro Ltd ........................................................................................... R24 000 R45 000
Gammis Ltd ......................................................................................... R27 000 R30 000
