Question:

Sophie Peters produces ladies’ designer wear. Her orderbooks are full and she counts among her customers many leading retailers in the city. Her problem, however, is that despite working three shifts a day, and stretching her capacity to the limits, she is unable meet the orders on time. She requires £180,000 to enhance production capacity and £200,000 more to clear her liabilities. She has prepared her draft Statement of financial position as shown. She reports her post reporting-date events which occurred prior to the approval of her financial statements as follows:

(a) On 11 April 2012 she raised £380,000 from a bank at 6% per annum interest, pledging machinery as collateral.

(b) Additional machinery, acquired for £180,000 on 15 April, improved her production capacity by 25%.

(c) On 3 April she received back from one of her retailers goods sold for £40,000 on 27 March. These goods were found to have been significantly damaged because of defective packing. The damaged goods have no sale value.


Required:
