3. A Ltd is a public sector entity under the Ministry of Defence and is in the business of construction of warships.
The contracts are awarded on fixed price basis except certain variable components, such as, foreign exchange
variation and cost of spares etc. The payment for fixed price part is on the basis of completion of milestones.
The payment for variable component is based on actual cost to the shipyard. The payment terms for the fixed
price portion of the contract are generally spread over 10-12 milestones starting with initial payment of 10% on
signing of the contract. As the gestation period of the contracts for shipbuilding is longer, it so happens that
during initial period when funds are made available, at times, become temporary surplus funds, which are
deployed in short-term fixed deposits. However, in the later part of the execution of the contract, the cost
incurred on the project exceeds the stage payments received on the vessel leading to a negative cash flow.
Further, the last stage payment of the project is deferred till one year after the delivery of the vessel. Thus, the
interest earned initially on the temporary surplus compensates to a certain extent for the period of deficit cash
flow, especially at the later part of the execution of the project. A Ltd wants to check the presentation
requirement of interest earned on deposits made out of temporary surplus as per AS?
(a) To be presented as “Other income”
