Introduction: The subsequent events are the events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the approval of the financial statements. Such events include two types of events − adjusting and non-adjusting. Adjusting events are the events which provide an evidence that certain circumstances existed at the time of preparation of balance sheet and so the balance sheet would have been prepared on an estimation basis after considering such circumstances. Non-adjusting events are the ones that occur suddenly after the preparation of the balance sheet and hence have not been considered at all in the preparation of the balance sheet.

To describe: The financial statement effects in the given subsequent events.
