Good day Mr Mike,
Why is the following statement not correct?
“Making a provision for a constructive obligation of $400,000; this being the sales value of goods expected to be returned by retail customers after the year end under the company´s advertised 30-day returns policy.”
February 17, 2016 at 3:47 pm #300830Without looking at the question, is it because the amount of economic outflow is only the profit element of those returned goods? Can these goods not be taken back into inventory and sold again?

i am puzzled as well.
Why can’t you look at the question then>>?
February 18, 2016 at 7:15 am #300920The outflow of economic resource is not likely going to be the sales value of the returned goods.
The only outflow will be the lost profits
February 18, 2016 at 7:39 am #300927I see it. I never thought about it that way.
Thank you Mr Mike.
February 18, 2016 at 1:51 pm #300997You’re welcome
