Hi Mike, Im a bit confused about the last comment about Inventories belonging to the buyer or supplier. Is that scenario appropriate only at times of liquidation? Who is the eventual owner? Many thanks Rustam
Technically the inventory belongs to the supplier until the goods have been paid for. But substance over form …. so long as there is no question that the company may possibly not be a going concern, then we account for the inventory as though ownership has passed.
When there ARE going concern implications, then we need to think again about the Romalpa issue. Where the financial statements are being prepared on a break-up basis, then the appropriate inventory will be excluded
But it all depends on the wording of the contract!
Hi Mike, How are you? I am bit worried about my preparation. As before was pretty sure that 1 question will come from comprehansive income, 1 question will come form construction contract, 1 from cash flow etc. But now as you know the question structure has been change, in this case how can i prepare myself base on question? and how can i prepare for multiple question as well? Many thanks.
Inventories should be valued at the lower of costs and net realisable value.
Is that means inventories can be valued at NRV if we believe that the inventories should not have a carrying value that exceeds the amount we expected to be realised from their sale?
i think John answer is not appropriate,,,it will be recorded at NRV when not only the carrying value is less than expected from sales but also less than its original cost…may be carrying value which is less than expected sale proceeds is still greater than original cost, so in this case we will record it at cost…i apologies John, if i’m wrong!
IAS 2 says that inventory should be valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. So inventory can not be valued at more than NRV (which I think is what was being asked).

Where is the chapter eleven lecture on investment in associates?
If it’s not on the site, then it doesn’t exist
Is it possibly at the end of the consolidated statement of profit or loss video?
