The Crafty Ltd is an online retailer of a broad range of art and craft products. You are an audit senior at the firm Star Wars & Co and are planning the financial report audit for the year ended 30 June 2020. The Crafty is a new client to your firm and this is the first year end since you were appointed. The following information was obtained from a meeting with the CEO, Katrina Maglanque.

The company has managed to ride a wave of renewed interest by younger people in arts and crafts and the revenue for 2020 is approximately $3.2 million. This continues a trend that has seen revenue increase by between 20% and 30% consistently for the six years since the company was started by Katrina and her tennis partner Jade Garrard who is the COO. Profits in 2020 are $0.2 million and have not increased significantly in four years despite the increased turnover. In 2016 there are plans to broaden the range of products sold to include bedding, curtains and household furnishings.

Rapid expansion has put pressure on the company’s various systems, not least of which is the online sales order system. The Crafty do not have their own in-house IT function relying on Katrina’s sister Kristine who is responsible for accounting, IT, HR, payroll and general office management.

You are aware that in previous years errors had been detected at the audit stage, partly due to IT system errors and partly due to Kristine’s inexperience as an accountant. Katrina and Kristine are confident that any errors in the financial report will be immaterial and not worth investigating given how busy they are with the growing business.

As part of the growth of the business the company is looking to raise additional bank borrowings to fund more warehouse space and invest in improvements to the IT systems. Katrina has indicated that she needs the audit report signed before 15 September which is when she will be meeting the bank to discuss the details of the loan. Based on the above information, identify and explain five (5) issues that give rise to risks for the financial report external audit you are about to commence.

On 1 November 2018, ACP imported a new multi-colour printing machine (No-10) for $68,300 cash. In addition, ACP paid $6,500 of import duties and $1,200 of transport costs for the machine on 3 November 2018. The useful life of the machine and the residual value were estimated to be 8 years and $7,000 respectively. ACP decides to depreciate the machine using a straight-line basis. The company’s financial year-end is 30 June.

On 30 June 2019, Auckland City Printers revalued the machine to $73,000 following a review by an independent valuer.

On 1 July 2019, due to the changes in technology caused the company to revise the estimated useful life of the printing machine from 8 years to 6 years. On the same day, it was also determined that the residual value of the machine is nil.

On 30 June 2020, the printing machine has been revalued at a fair value of $55,200.

On 30 September 2020, the accountant believes that the value of the printing machine has declined substantially. The value in use is nil, but it is estimated that the company may be able to sell the printing machine for $35,000 to a purchaser and the costs associated with making the sale would be $2,000.

On 1 October 2020, Auckland City Printers sold the printing machine for $32,000 cash.

Required:

(a)   Prepare relevant journal entries to record the depreciation expense for the year ended 30 June 2019 and revaluation entries on 30 June 2019.


(b)   Prepare relevant journal entries to record the depreciation the year ended 30 June 2020 and revaluation entries on 30 June 2020.


(c) Explain the accounting treatment for the transaction on 30 September 2020 in respect of the printing machine with reference to the relevant accounting standards. Prepare the journal entry required.  

(d) Prepare the journal entry required on 1 October 2020 to reflect the disposal of the printing machine. Show all workings.
