(a) The essential features, which a good Cost Accounting System should possess, are as follows: (a) Informative and Simple: Cost Accounting System should be tailor-made, practical, simple and capable of meeting the requirements of a business concern. The system of costing should not sacrifice the utility by introducing meticulous and unnecessary details. (b) Accuracy: The data to be used by the Cost Accounting System should be accurate; otherwise it may distort the output of the system and a wrong decision may be taken. (c) Support from Management and subordinates: Necessary cooperation and participation of executives from various departments of the concern is essential for developing a good system of Cost Accounting. (d) Cost-Benefit: The Cost of installing and operating the system should justify the results. (e) Procedure: A carefully phased programme should be prepared by using network analysis for the introduction of the system. (f) Trust: Management should have faith in the Costing System and should also provide a helping hand for its development and success. (b) Scrap has been defined as the incidental residue from certain types of manufacture, usually of small amount and low value, recoverable without further processing. Scrap may be treated in cost accounts in the following ways:(i) When the scrap value is negligible: It may be excluded from costs. In other words, the cost of scrap is borne by good units and income from scrap is treated as other income. (ii) When the scrap value is not identifiable to a particular process or job: The sales value of scrap net of selling and distribution cost, is deducted from overhead to reduce the overhead rate. A variation of this method is to deduct the net realisable value from material cost. (iii) When scrap is identifiable with a particular job or process and its value is significant: The scrap account should be charged with full cost. The credit is given to the job or process concerned. The profit or loss in the scrap account, on realisation, will be transferred to the Costing Profit and Loss Account. (c) Essential pre-requisites of Integrated Accounting System: The essential pre-requisites of integrated accounting system include the following: 1. The management s decision about the extent of integration of the two sets of books. Some concerns find it useful to integrate upto the stage of primary cost or factory cost while other prefer full integration of the entire accounting records. The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India PAPER 3 : COST ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT 73 2. A suitable coding system must be made available so as to serve the accounting purposes of financial and cost accounts. 3. An agreed routine, with regard to the treatment of provision for accruals, prepaid expenses, other adjustment necessary for preparation of interim accounts. 4. Perfect coordination should exist between the staff responsible for the financial and cost aspects of the accounts and an efficient processing of accounting documents should be ensured. Under this system there is no need for a separate cost ledger. Of course, there will be a number of subsidiary ledgers; in addition to the useful Customers Ledger and the Bought Ledger, there will be : (a) Stores Ledger; (b) Stock Ledger and (c) Job Ledger. The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India 74 INTERMEDIATE (IPC) EXAMINATION: MAY, 2014 PART II: FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT QUESTIONS 1. Answer the following, supporting the same with reasoning/working notes: (a) Floating-rate bonds are designed to minimize the holders' interest rate risk; while convertible bonds are designed to give the investor the ability to share in the price appreciation of the company's stock. Do you agree with this statement? (b) Should companies use their weighted average cost of capital (WACC) as the discount rate when assessing the acceptability of new projects? (c) The earnings of Alpha Limited were ` 3 per share in year 1. They increased over a 10 year period to ` 4.02. You are required to compute the rate of growth or compound annual rate of growth of the earnings per share.

Answer the following: (a) Funds Flow Statement versus Cash Flow Statement. (b) Basic Functions of Financial Management. (c) Advantages of Debt Securitisation. SUGGESTED ANSWERS / HINTS 1. (a) Floating rate bonds allow the investor to earn a rate of interest income tied to current interest rates, thus negating one of the major disadvantages of fixed income investments while Convertible bonds allow the investor to benefit from the appreciation of the stock price, either by converting to stock or holding the bond, which will increase in price as the stock price increases. (b) When we mention the WACC in this context, we can assume we are talking about an historic WACC, i.e. one referring to the cost of funds already raised. There are certain conditions that must be met in order for it to be appropriate to use an historic cost of capital to appraise new projects, as follows: The new project must have a similar level of risk to the average risk of a company s existing projects; The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India 80 INTERMEDIATE (IPC) EXAMINATION: MAY, 2014 The amount of finance needed for the new project must be small relative to the amount of finance already raised. The company must be intending to finance the new project by using a similar financing mix to its historical financing mix. (c) Compound Annual Rate of Growth in Earnings per Share Fn = P FVIFi, n Fn P ` 4.02 = = 1.340 `3 FVIFi, n = FVIFi, 10 An FVIF of 1.340 at 10 years is at 3 percent interest. The compound annual rate of growth in earnings per share is, therefore, 3 percent. (d) The statement is incorrect as an EBIT-EPS indifference analysis chart is used for examining EPS results for alternative financing plans at varying EBIT levels. (e) The statement is incorrect. The trade terms "2/15, net 30" indicate that a 2 percent discount is offered if payment is made within 15 days. 2. Working Notes Calculation of Reduction in Investment in Receivables (Rs.)

(a) Both funds flow and cash flow statements are used in analysis of past transactions of a business firm. The difference between these two statements is given below: Funds flow statement is based on the accrual accounting system. In case of preparation of cash flow statements all transactions effecting the cash or cash equivalents only is taken into consideration. Funds flow statement analyses the sources and application of funds of long-term nature and the net increase or decrease in long-term funds will be reflected on the working capital of the firm. The cash flow statement will only consider the increase or decrease in current assets and current liabilities in calculating the cash flow of funds from operations. Funds Flow analysis is more useful for long range financial planning. Cash flow analysis is more useful for identifying and correcting the current liquidity problems of the firm. Funds flow statement tallies the funds generated from various sources with various uses to which they are put. Cash flow statement starts with the opening balance of cash and reaches to the closing balance of cash by proceeding through sources and uses. (b) Basic Functions of Financial Management: Financial Management deals with the procurement of funds and their effective utilization in the business. The first basic function of financial management is procurement of funds and the other is their effective utilization. (i) Procurement of Funds: Funds can be procured from different sources, their procurement is a complex problem for business concerns. Funds procured from different sources have different characteristics in terms of risk, cost and control. The cost of funds should be at the minimum level for that a proper balancing of risk and control factors must be carried out. (ii) Effective Utilisation of Funds: The finance manager is also responsible for effective utilisation of funds. He has to point out situations where the funds are being kept idle or where proper use of funds is not being made. All the funds are procured at a certain cost and after entailing a certain amount of risk. If these funds are not utilised in the manner so that they generate an income higher than the cost of procuring them, there is no point in running the business. Hence, it is crucial to employ the funds properly and profitably. The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India 90 INTERMEDIATE (IPC) EXAMINATION: MAY, 2014 (c) Advantages of Debt Securitisation: Debt securitisation is a method of recycling of funds and is especially beneficial to financial intermediaries to support lending volumes. The advantages of debt securitisation to the originator are the following: (i) The assets are shifted off the Balance Sheet, thus giving the originator recourse to off balance sheet funding. (ii) It converts illiquid assets to liquid portfolio. (iii) It facilitates better balance sheet management; assets are transferred off balance sheet facilitating satisfaction of capital adequacy norms. (iv) The originator s credit rating enhances. For the investors, securitisation opens up new investment avenues. Though the investor bears the credit risk, the securities are tied up to definite assets.
