The plant was due to be active for five years until 30 June 20X9, when it would be decommissioned. At 1 July 20X4, the costs of decommissioning the plant were estimated to be $4 million in 5 years’ time. Experimenter considers that a discount rate of 12% is appropriate for the calculation of a present value, and the discount factor at 12% for five years is 0.567. What is the total charge to the statement of profit or loss in respect of the decommissioning for the year ended 30 June 20X5?

Which means, all directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to ready-to-use condition will be added into the asset initial value, along with purchase price and all relevant duties and obligations. In this case, students should identify whether the decommissioning costs related to the acquisition of the plant. When measuring money at a future time, students should discount all future sums of money or stream of cashflows to their current value, given a specific rate of return/discount rate. The present value is calculated by multiplying the expected future cost by a discount factor. Answer: B The cost of the decommissioning is assumed to be an obligation for the entity. An amount should be included in the cost of the asset when it is first recognized (1 July 20X4). The amount to include in the cost of the asset for decommissioning costs is the present value of the expected future decommissioning costs. The present value is calculated by multiplying the expected future cost by a discount factor, which in this case is the discount factor for Year 5 (20X9) at 12%: $4 million × 0.567 = $2.268 million. All relevant costs related to the decommissioning which will be charged in the year ended 30 June 20X5 are: Depreciation expense Finance cost Incurred every year (Straight‐line basis over 5 years), in respect of initial cost of the plant. Incurred every year due to cost of capital (12%) Therefore, total charge to the statement of profit or loss in respect of the decommissioning for the year ended 30 June 20X5: Depreciation expense = Cost of asset * 1/5 = $2,268,000 * 1/5 = $453,600 + Finance cost = Cost of asset * 12% = $2,268,000 * 12% = $272,160 = $725,760 Notes to students: • If you selected A, you have included the depreciation without the finance cost. • If you selected C, you have just spread the present value of the dismantling over 5 years. • If you selected D, you have expensed the whole asset value.

Statement 1: If the revaluation model is used for property, plant and equipment, all items of property, plant and equipment must be subject to revaluation. Statement 2: When an item of property, plant and equipment is revalued, it is compulsory to make the annual transfer of excess depreciation within equity. Statement 1 Statement 2 True False Guidance: Remember: • • Revaluation model according to IAS 16: o Revaluations should be made with sufficient regularity to ensure that the carrying amount of the assets remains close to fair value. o If one item in a class of assets is revalued, all the assets in that class must be revalued. The depreciation charge: The depreciation charge on the revalued asset will be different to the depreciation that would have been charged based on the historical cost of the asset. As a result of this, IAS 16 permits a transfer to be made of an amount equal to the excess depreciation from the revaluation reserve to retained earnings. Tips: • • When seeing the word “all”, be extremely careful with the statement, as it may be TRICKY! BE CAREFUL, in the exam a reserves transfer is only required if the examiner indicates that it is company policy to make a transfer to realized profits in respect of excess depreciation on revalued assets. If this is not the case, then a reserves transfer is not necessary. Answer: Statement 1 Statement 2 True False Statement 1: IAS 16 requires that, if the revaluation model is adopted, all items of the same class must be accounted for on the same basis. However, it is possible for, e.g. land and buildings to be accounted for using the revaluation model, whilst other classes of property, plant and equipment (e.g. plant and equipment) to be accounted for using the cost model.

It is optional, not compulsory. Note that however, that if this treatment is adopted, it must be applied every year, rather than applied some years and not in other years.

An illuminated sign advertising the business name D.

Cleaning of the kitchen floors is a maintenance cost and therefore is revenue expenditure. Question 3: Mobiles Co sells goods with a one year warranty under which customers are covered for any defect that becomes apparent within a year of purchase. In calendar year 20X4, Mobiles Co sold 100,000 units. The company expects warranty claims for 5% of units sold. Half of these claims will be for a major defect, with an average claim value of $50.

You are the manager responsible for the audit of Greenfields Co. Greenfield Co has a material receivable balances owing to its customer, Yellow Co. During the year end audit, your team review the aging of this balance and found that no payment has been received for over 6 months, and Greenfields Co would not allow this balance to be circularised. Instead management has assured your team that they will provide a written representation confirming that the balance is recoverable. However, you have discussed this matter with management but they are still not prepared to provide the representations you have requested. What type of modified opinion would be issued and what would be the basis for this modification? Audit opinion Reason A Qualified Material misstatement B Disclaimer Inability to obtain sufficient appropriate evidence C Adverse Material misstatement D Qualified Inability to obtain sufficient appropriate evidence Answer: D Given the limited evidence available other than the representation, the auditor will be unable to obtain sufficient appropriate evidence over the material warranty provision. Therefore a modification of the auditor's opinion is required. A qualified opinion will be issued because the misstatement, although material, will not be pervasive. A qualified or adverse opinion on the grounds of material misstatement would not be appropriate as the auditor has not been able to obtain sufficient evidence to determine whether a material misstatement has occurred or not.
