Note: Since question requires computation of Impairment loss on 31.3.2019, hence
impairment probability on 31.03.2018 has been ignored. However, since there is
impairment probability at the beginning of the year as well, one may calculate
the carrying amount at the beginning of the year after impairment and then

Answer:

6. (a) (i) An entity shall recognise a financial asset or financial liability in its Balance sheet
when and only when, the entity becomes party to the contractual provisions of
the instrument. For example, unconditional receivables and payables are
recognised as assets or liabilities when the entity becomes party to the contract,
and as a consequence has a legal right to receive or legal obligation to pay.

Alternative Answer:

Except for trade receivables, at initial recognition, an entity shall measure a


financial asset or financial liability at its fair value plus or minus, in the case of a
financial asset or financial liability not at fair value through profit or loss,
transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the
financial asset or financial liability.

7. (a) State the process of Election of Members of Public Accounts Committee. 8

(b) Write a short note on Government Accounting Standards issued by Government


Accounting Standards Advisory Board (GASAB). 8

Answer:

7. (a) (1) 15 Members of Lok Sabha: In April each year a motion is moved in Lok Sabha by
the Minister of Parliamentary Affairs or Chairman of the Committee, if in office,
calling upon members of the House to elect from amongst themselves 15
members to the Public Accounts Committee. After the motion is adopted, a
programme, fixing the dates for filing the nominations/withdrawal of candidatures
and the election, if necessary, is notified in Lok Sabha Bulletin Part-ll. On receipt of
nominations, a list of persons who have filed nomination papers is put up on the
Notice Boards. In case the number of members nominated is equal to the number
of members to be elected, then, after expiry of time for withdrawal of
candidatures, the members nominated are declared elected and the result
published in Bulletin Part-ll. If the number of members nominated after withdrawals
is more than number of members to be elected, election is held on the stipulated
date and result of election published in Bulletin Part-ll.

(2) 7 Members of Rajya Sabha: Another motion is moved in Lok Sabha


recommending to Rajya Sabha to nominate seven members of that House for
being associated with the Committee. After adoption, the motion is transmitted to
Rajya Sabha through a Message. Rajya Sabha holds election of members to the
Committee and the names of members elected are communicated to Lok
Sabha.

(3) Appointment of Chairman: The Chairman of the Committee is appointed by the


Speaker from amongst the members of Lok Sabha elected to the Committee. As
a convention, starting from the Public Accounts Committee of 1967-68, a member
of the Committee belonging to the main opposition party/group in the House is
appointed as the Chairman of the Committee.

(4) Minister not to be Member of Committee: A Minister is not eligible to be elected as


a member of the Committee and if a member, after his election to the
Committee, is appointed as a Minister, he ceases to be a member of the
Committee from the date of such appointment.

(5) Term of Office: The term of office of the members of the Committee is one year.

(6) Association of Members with Government Committees: A member, on his election

DoS, The Institute of Cost Accountants of India (Statutory Body under an Act of Parliament) Page 20
Suggested Answers_Syl2016_June 2019_Paper 17

to the Committee, has to communicate to the office of the Committee, the


particulars regarding the various Committees appointed by Government with
which he is associated, for being placed before the Speaker. Where the Speaker
considers it inappropriate that a member should continue to serve on the
Government Committee, the member is required to resign membership of the
Committee constituted by Government. Where the Speaker permits a member to
continue to hold membership of Government Committee, he may require that
the report of the Government Committee shall be placed before the Committee
on Public Accounts for such comments as the latter Committee may deem fit to
make, before it is presented to Government. Whenever the Chairman or any
member of the Committee on Public Accounts is invited to accept membership
of any Committee constituted by Government, the matter is likewise to be placed
before the Speaker before the appointment is accepted.

(b) Government Accounting Standards Advisory Board (GASAB) has been


constituted by Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG), with the support
of Government of India through a notification dated 12th August, 2002.

The new priorities focus on good governance, fiscal prudence, efficiency &
transparency in public spending instead of just identifying resources for public
scheme funding.

GASAB, as a nodal advisory body in India, is taking similar action to establish and
improve standards of government accounting and financial reporting and
enhance accountability mechanisms.

The mission of the Government Accounting Standards Advisory Board (GASAB) is


to formulate and recommend Indian Government Accounting Standards (IGASs)
for cash system of accounting and Indian Government Financial Reporting
Standards (IGFRS) for accrual system of accounting, with a view to improving
standards of Governmental accounting and financial reporting which will
enhance the quality of decision-making and public accountability.

GASAB has been developing two types of Accounting Standards, namely Indian
Government Accounting Standards (IGAS) and Indian Government Financial
Reporting Standards (IGFRS) for the Government. These standards have been
developed to address the issues related with the existing cash system of
accounting and its migration to the accrual system of accounting in future.

The standards being developed to make existing cash system of accounting


more transparent are called Indian Government Accounting Standards
(IGAS).The Indian Government Accounting Standards (IGAS), formulated by the
Government Accounting Standards Advisory Board (GASAB) and notified by the
Ministry of Finance, Government of India are:
• Guarantees given by Governments: Disclosure Requirements (IGAS 1);
• Accounting and Classification of Grants-in-aid (IGAS 2)
• Loans and Advances made by Governments (IGAS 3)

The Indian Government Accounting Standards (IGAS), approved by the


Government Accounting Standards Advisory Board (GASAB) and under
consideration of Government of India, are:

DoS, The Institute of Cost Accountants of India (Statutory Body under an Act of Parliament) Page 21
Suggested Answers_Syl2016_June 2019_Paper 17

• Foreign Currency Transactions and Loss/Gain by Exchange Rate Variations


(IGAS 7);
• Government Investments in Equity (IGAS 9);

Public Debt and Other Liabilities of Governments: Disclosure Requirement (IGAS


10).

There are IGFRS also. The standards being developed for accrual system of
accounting in the Government are called the Indian Government Financial
Reporting Standards (IGFRS). These are approved by the Government
Accounting Standards Advisory Board (GASAB).

i. XBRL is not a set of Accounting Standards: It needs to be clearly understood that


XBRL does not represent a set of accounting standards content will reside and be
represented.
ii. XBRL is not a chart of accounts: It is not a detailed universal chart of accounts.
Formulation of a company's chart of accounts is an exercise conducted by its
management with regard to its specific business intricacies. XBRL can facilitate
the implementation of such structures through its ability to transport data
between disparate software applications that might be used within an
organizations operational structure.
iii. XBRL is not a GAAP translator: it does not provide a mechanism for facilitating a
drilldown of existing GAAP information into lower level information that would be
necessary for translating financial statement from one GAAP to another. The
business-reporting documents contain the same GAAP information, be it in an
XBRL format or an MS word or PDF format.
iv. XBRL is not a proprietary technology: XBRL is freely licensed and available to the
public.
v. XBRL is not a Transaction Protocol: XBRL deals with business reporting information,
not with data capture at the transaction level. It is designated to address issues
related to generation and usage of information contained within business reports
and begin at the accounting classification level.

(c) Fair value hierarchy as per Ind AS 113

Ind As 113 establishes a fair value hierarchy into three levels of the inputs to valuation
techniques for measuring fair value.
 Level 1- Based on quoted prices(unadjusted) for identical asset or liabilities that is
traded in a currently active market.
 Level 2- Other than included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liabilities either directly or indirectly.
 Level 3- Unobservable inputs for asset or liabilities

The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for
identical asset or liabilities (Level 1 inputs) and the lowest priority unobservable inputs
(Level 3 inputs).

a party to the contract (sometimes called the 'underlying');

net investment that is Smaller than would be required for other types of contracts
that would be expected to have a similar response to changes in market factors;

(ii) An Embedded Derivative is a component of a hybrid (combined) instrument that


also includes a non-derivative host contract, with the effect that some of the cash
flows of the combined instrument vary in a way similar to a standalone derivative.

Note: A derivative that is attached to a financial instrument but is contractually


transferable independently of that instrument, or has a different counterparty from
that instrument, is not an embedded derivative, but a separate financial instrument.
