The following scenario relates to questions 1–5.
Scenario
Elite Leisure Co is a private limited liability company that operates a single cruise ship. The ship was acquired on 1 October 20W6 (ten years before 20X6). Details of the cost of the ship's components and the basis on which they are depreciated is as follows:
Component
Original cost
Depreciation basis
$m
Ship's fabric (hull, decks etc)
300
25 years straight-line
Cabins and entertainment area fittings
150
12 years straight-line
Propulsion system
100
Useful life of 40,000 hours
At 30 September 20X4 no further capital expenditure had been incurred on the ship.
The propulsion system has been used for 30,000 hours at 30 September 20X4. Due to the unreliability of the engines, a decision was taken in early October 20X4 to replace the whole of the propulsion system at a cost of $140 million. The useful life of the new propulsion system was 50,000 hours and in the year ended 30 September 20X5 the ship had used the system for 5,000 hours.
At the same time as the propulsion system replacement, Elite Leisure Co took the opportunity to do a limited upgrade to the facilities at a cost of $60 million and repaint the ship's fabric at a cost of $20 million. After the upgrade of the facilities it was estimated that their remaining useful life was five years (from the date of the upgrade). For the purpose of calculating depreciation, all the work on the ship can be assumed to have been completed on 1 October 20X4. All residual values can be taken as nil.
REQUIREMENT
What is the amount of depreciation that should be charged in respect of the propulsion system for the year ended 30 September 20X5?
(140m × 5,000/50,000) = $14m

Information relevant to questions 1–5.
Scenario
Dexterity Co is a public listed company. It has been considering the accounting treatment of its intangible assets and how the matters below should be treated in its financial statements for the year to 31 March 20X4.
On 1 October 20X3 Dexterity Co acquired Temerity Co, a small company that specialises in pharmaceutical drug research and development. The purchase consideration was by way of a share exchange and valued at $35 million. The fair value of Temerity Co's net assets was $15 million (excluding any items referred to below). Temerity Co owns a patent for an established successful drug that has a remaining life of eight years. A firm of specialist advisors, Leadbrand, has estimated the current value of this patent to be $10 million, however the company is awaiting the outcome of clinical trials where the drug has been tested to treat a different illness. If the trials are successful, the value of the drug is then estimated to be $15 million. Also included in the company's statement of financial position is $2 million for medical research that has been conducted on behalf of a client.
Dexterity Co has developed and patented a new drug which has been approved for clinical use. The costs of developing the drug were $12 million. Based on early assessments of its sales success, Leadbrand have estimated its market value at $20 million, which can be taken as a reliable measurement.
Dexterity Co's manufacturing facilities have recently received a favourable inspection by government medical scientists. As a result of this the company has been granted an exclusive five-year licence to manufacture and distribute a new vaccine. Although the licence had no direct cost to Dexterity Co, its directors feel its granting is a reflection of the company's standing and have asked Leadbrand to value the licence.
Accordingly they have placed a value of $10 million on it.
In the current accounting period, Dexterity Co has spent $3 million sending its staff on specialist training courses. While these courses have been expensive, they have led to a marked improvement in production quality and staff now need less supervision. This in turn has led to an increase in revenue and cost reductions. The directors of Dexterity Co believe these benefits will continue for at least three years and wish to treat the training costs as an asset.
REQUIREMENT
IAS 38 gives examples of activities that would be regarded as research and therefore not eligible for recognition as an intangible asset.
Which of the following would be an example of research costs?

Information relevant to questions 1–5.
Scenario
Rainbird Co decided to reorganise a manufacturing facility during November 20X1 and commissioned a consulting engineer to carry out a feasibility study. A provision for the reorganisation was created at 31 December 20X1.
Staff functions will change following the reorganisation, so in December 20X1 Rainbird Co contracted with a training company to provide retraining to take place in January 20X2. A provision for this expenditure was created at 31 December 20X1.
Rainbird Co hopes that reorganising its manufacturing facility will improve quality control. It gives a one-year warranty with all products and the rate of returns under warranty is 12%. 5% of the returned items can be repaired at a cost of $5 (free of charge to the customer). The other 95% are scrapped and a full refund of $30 is given.
Rainbird Co sold 525,000 units during the year to 31 December 20X1.
In five years' time Rainbird Co will have to dismantle its factory and return the site to the local authority. A provision was set up for the present value of the dismantling costs when the factory was first acquired. The opening balance on the provision at 1 January 20X1 was $2.63 million. Rainbird Co has a cost of capital of 8%.
REQUIREMENT
What is the amount of the provision that should be carried forward at 31 December 20X1 for the dismantling of the factory?
$2.63 million × 108% = $2,840,400. This is the unwinding of the discount.

Rainbird Co's accountant is preparing the financial statements for the year to 31 December 20X1 and is not too sure about the provisions set up for the reorganisation of the facility and the staff training.
Which of these is a correct provision under IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets?
5 / 5
Information relevant to questions 1–5.
Scenario
Rainbird Co decided to reorganise a manufacturing facility during November 20X1 and commissioned a consulting engineer to carry out a feasibility study. A provision for the reorganisation was created at 31 December 20X1.
Staff functions will change following the reorganisation, so in December 20X1 Rainbird Co contracted with a training company to provide retraining to take place in January 20X2. A provision for this expenditure was created at 31 December 20X1.
Rainbird Co hopes that reorganising its manufacturing facility will improve quality control. It gives a one-year warranty with all products and the rate of returns under warranty is 12%. 5% of the returned items can be repaired at a cost of $5 (free of charge to the customer). The other 95% are scrapped and a full refund of $30 is given.
Rainbird Co sold 525,000 units during the year to 31 December 20X1.
In five years' time Rainbird Co will have to dismantle its factory and return the site to the local authority. A provision was set up for the present value of the dismantling costs when the factory was first acquired. The opening balance on the provision at 1 January 20X1 was $2.63 million. Rainbird Co has a cost of capital of 8%.
REQUIREMENT
What is the amount of the provision that should be created at 31 December 20X1 for returns under warranty?
Total returns = 525,000 × 12% = 63,000
Expected cost:

Information relevant to questions 1–5.
Scenario
The directors of Tunshill Co are disappointed by the draft profit for the year ended 30 September 20X3. The
company's assistant accountant has suggested two areas where she believes the reported profit may be improved:
A major item of plant that cost $20 million to purchase and install on 1 October 20X0 is being depreciated on a straight-line basis over a five-year period (assuming no residual value). The plant is wearing well and at the beginning of the current year (1 October 20X2) the production manager believed that the plant was likely to last eight years in total (ie from the date of its purchase). The assistant accountant has calculated that, based on an eight-year life (and no residual value) the accumulated depreciation of the plant at 30 September 20X3 would be $7.5 million ($20 million / 8 years × 3). In the financial statements for the year ended 30 September 20X2, the accumulated depreciation was $8 million ($20 million / 5 years × 2).
Therefore, by adopting an eight-year life, Tunshill Co can avoid a depreciation charge in the current year and instead credit $0.5 million ($8 million – $7.5 million) to profit or loss in the current year to improve the reported profit.
Most of Tunshill Co's competitors value their inventory using the average cost (AVCO) basis, whereas Tunshill Co uses the first in first out (FIFO) basis. The value of Tunshill Co's inventory at 30 September 20X3 on the FIFO basis, is $20 million, however on the AVCO basis it would be valued at $18 million. By adopting the same method (AVCO) as its competitors, the assistant accountant says the company would improve its profit for the year ended 30 September 20X3 by $2 million. Tunshill Co's inventory at 30 September 20X2 was reported as $15 million, however on the AVCO basis it would have been reported as $13.4 million.
