after incorporating the various adjustment in compliance with International Financial Reporting
Standards. The adjustments have been detailed here-in-below:
(a) In term of International Financial Reporting Standard 15, Revenue shall be recognised in the
books of account once the transfer of title takes place and the liability of goods lies in the
hand of the buyer or in other words liability of seller is off loaded. In the present case, since

Thus, on the basis of above the cost of sales shall be reduced by Sterling 35.3 Million.
(b) Under International Financial Reporting Standard “Percentage of Completion method”,
revenue shall be recognised uptill the amount of work carried out by the seller based on a
certificate. In the present case, since the work has been completed upto 70% on the basis of

100,000 shall stand as outstanding. Further, cost shall recognised uptill the actual cost
incurred by the company.
(c) In terms of International Financial Reporting Standard “Property Plant and Equipment” cost

(e) The depreciation charged has been adjusted from cost of sales in terms of company policy;
(f) The construction cost which has been shown as asset in the books of company has been
expended into Profit and loss under cost of sales as IFRS does not recognises the concept of
complete contract method;
(g) The total consideration paid for the acquiring DAC Enviro Limited has been valued at

of title to be in compliance with IFRS.
Percentage of Completion methods accounting treatment and computation falls under IFRS 15.It
is the method of recognition of revenue in which the firm or the company recognizes revenue
over the period of the projects i.e the revenue is recognised on an ongoing basis. Generally,
Percentage of completion method is used for a longer-term projects and revenue and expenses
are recognised based on project completion over a period of time. (CFI Education INC, 2019)
There are two form of Long term Contract:
 Completed Contract: in this case, revenue is recognised when the project is completed.
 Percentage of Completion: In this case, revenue is recognised over a period.
Under IFRS 15 ,percentage of completion method were revenue of the project is recognised on
the basis of its percentage of completion .The revenue and expenses both is recognised on the
basis of the proportion of completeness of the Project. Through cost-to-cost method, it is
measured. (CFI Education INC, 2019)
There are two states under which the percentage of completion method can be adopted:
 Collection of revenue from the project must be certain
 Completion of project and costs of such project must be properly estimated.
In cost-to-cost approach, Percentage of completion of the project depends on the cost incurred
till date to the estimated total costs in order to complete the project.
The Percentage completion equation:
Percentage completion=Cost incurred to date/Estimated total costs
The revenue recognition equation in case of percentage of completion method:
Revenue=Cost incurred till date/Estimated total costs*Contract price-Previous recognized
revenue.

International Accounting Standard 16 deals with Property Plant and Equipment. This standard
also deals with the recognition of deprecation, recognition of carrying value of the assets, any
impairment loss of the assets.
To be recognised as Property Plant and Equipment under IFRS 16 the items should meet the
following criteria:
 It should be a tangible items (Audit It, 2019)
 Should be used for Production, supply of goods and services. (Audit It, 2019)
 Benefit from that assets can be taken for more than one accounting period (Audit It,
2019)
The formula for computation of PPE=Gross PPE +Capital Expenditures-Accumulated
Depreciation.
The initial purchase price of Property Plant and Equipment includes the purchase price, import
duties if any incurred, taxes which are generally non refundable, discount on sales, cost which is
directly incurred in bringing the assets to the specified locations necessary for the operational
purposes, cost which is to be incurred in dismantling the assets and re-establish the site on which
the asset is located. This is commonly referred to as an Asset retirement obligation.
Any Capital expenditure which is incurred are generally form part or added to the Property Plant
and Equipment balance .When the company incur money either in maintaining the existing
equipment or modification to the same or purchase of new assets ,this totally is added and form
parts of balance sheet. (CFI Education Inc., 2019)

International Financial Reporting standards i.e IFRS are a bunch of accounting standard
developed by the International Accounting standards Board i.e IASB which is generally now a
days a globalised standard according to which the financial statements (profit and loss, Balance
sheet, and Cash flow statement) of the public company is prepared. The IFRS standards are
adopted worldwide in order to bring transparency, accountability, regulation all over the word in
the financial market. (IFRS Foundation , 2017)
International Accounting Standard 27 (IAS 27) defines the non controlling interest .Non
controlling means the ownership of the company does not pass to the shareholder of the
company. The investor can take the advantages from its subsidiary company by monitoring the
company rules and the financial policy of the company in order to reap benefit from the
subsidiary company. The control can be established if the company 50 percent voting right is
exercised by any other company. If the holding is less than 50 percent than it is said to be the non
controlling interest.
The accounting treatment in case of non controlling interest can be explained with the help of an
example: Company A holds 80 percent of the shares of the company B, as company A is holding
more than 50 percent shares of the company B so company A will consolidate all the financial
statement of the Company B with its own. The part of the share which A does not hold is
recorded as the non controlling interest in the financial statement of the company A. Income of
the company B will also be consolidated on the basis of the percentage of ownership i.e 80
percent to company A and remaining as non controlling interest.Non controlling interest is to be
shown in the equity part of the company A balance sheet separated from its own equity. (Audit
it, 2019)

Goodwill is considered as an intangible Assets of the company that can comes in many forms
such as in the form of brand value, reputation, secrets of the company .Sometimes it is
considered very difficult in computation of Goodwill, but there are two ways to compute the
goodwill portion. International Financial Reporting Standard 38 talks about the intangible assets
that does not allow to recognize the goodwill which is internally generated like generation of
brand name ,lists of customers and items similar in nature.IFRS 38 only allows to record the
goodwill in financial statement which is generated externally i.e either through Business
combinations or through acquisitions.
According to International Financial Reporting Standard 3 “Business Combination “Goodwill is
computed as the difference between the values of consideration transferred from acquire to
acquiree and net value of assets acquired. The general method of calculating the Goodwill under
IFRS is:
Goodwill=Consideration transferred+Amount of non controlling interests+fair value of previous
non controlling interests-Net value of Assets recognised till date. (Body of Professional
Accountants, 2017)
As from the above, we can see that in the formula of Goodwill computation, Amount of non
controlling interest appears .Computation of non controlling interest will be affected under
determining the value of goodwill.IFRS 3 comprises of two methods in order to measure the non
controlling interest:
 Fair Value
 Non Controlling interest proportionate share of the company who acquires the same that
company net identiable assets. (Body of Professional Accountants, 2017)
