You might be wondering why some of the topics are missing, but that's just because unfortunately, I have nothing to share
For this part, these topics are specifically:
1. PFRS 15 (aside from revenue from construction contracts)
2. Joint Arrangements
I answer problems under these topics just like how they are taught, no special template or whatsoever.
Again, it just took me a lot of practice to master them.
Short guide: please navigate through the cells and check the formula bar for better understanding sa mga nangyari hehe
If some things are not clear, you can always send me a DM on X (@jdcparkive) I'll try my best to answer them ASAP.
Happy learning! You got this, AFAR gods! 👌💞

TCC > TAC a. withdrawal of investment (problem should mention who will withdraw)
Note: The partner not mentioned will be the basis of TAC, in this case, partner B
Therefore, TAC = 30,000/40%
Example: Assume same TCC, but the partners agreed to a total capital of 60,0
TCC < TAC a. additional investment (problem should mention who will invest)
Example: Partners A and B has a contributed capital of 60,000 and 40,000 res
B will invest cash to make his capital proportionate to his P/L ratio.

Therefore, TAC = 60,000/40%

For negative revaluation, since TCC > TAC, bawal may madagdagan na capital.
You can observe sa examples na yung agreed capital ng partners ay either equ

Application:

Expenses (400,000) (140,000) - (140,000)
Gross Profit 100,000 35,000 - 35,000
Answers: OBSERVE:
1. A 1. The given costs incurred are already "to date", if not, you should add
2. B 2. Revenue to date is equal to CIP at year-end
3. B 3. Total revenue is based on the contract price.
Where:
POC = Total costs to date/Total estimated costs to complete
POC = 140,000 / (140,000 + 260,000)
= 35%
CIP = gawa
PB = singil
, if not, you should add the costs incurred from the current and previous periods.

I hate to break it to you guys, but I don't have much to share about business combination.
I solve buscomb problems using the same formulas being taught in the undergrad and review, so this might not be value adding.
But since straight computation lang naman dito usually, you can still slay this topic by, again, practicing.
However, I'll show you how I answer problems with intercompany transactions.
