    Hello sir,

    to calculate the outflows of the purchased non current assets, why the depreciation is added to the balance c/f, despite it has been added before in the operating activities ,
    so is it added twice?
    Thanks

    It is added back in operating activities because it’s a non-cash item in the section for Operating Activities

    But we need to take account of it also when calculating the cash flow involved in the purchase of TNCA for Investing Activities

    It is understood that it is added for calculation purposes of purchased TNCA

    But the point that, at the following example, in case of the depreciation of 2013 must be added on 26,700 as at the answer, also both the depreciation of 2012 should be added to the 25,200, and the depreciation of the sold asset should be added to them, that to reach the real figure of purchased assets, but it did not occur at the answer below :

    2013 2012
    Assets
    Non-current assets
    Property, plant and equipment 26,700 25,200

    On 1 July 2013, Kingdom acquired a new investment property at a cost of $1·4 million. On this date, it also
    transferred one of its other investment properties to property, plant and equipment at its fair value of $1·6 million as
    it became owner-occupied on that date. Kingdom adopts the fair value model for its investment properties.
    Kingdom also has a policy of revaluing its other properties (included as property, plant and equipment) to market value
    at the end of each year. Other comprehensive income and the revaluation reserve both relate to these properties.
    Depreciation of property, plant and equipment during the year was $1·5 million. An item of plant with a carrying
    amount of $2·3 million was sold for $1·8 million during September 2013.

    The answer:
    Balance b/f (25,200)
    Depreciation 1,500
    Revaluation (downwards) 1,300
    Disposal (at carrying amount) 2,300
    Transfer from investment properties (1,600)
    Balance c/f 26,700
    –––––––
    Acquired during year (= balance) (5,000)
    –––––––

    And the investment income (rental received) how to be treated in both operating activities and the finance activities?

    Was it a conscious decision not to give me full information?

    I believe that I need the details of the Revaluation Reserve brought forward and carried forward

    I also need the balances brought forward and carried forward for the Investment Properties

    When you have a moment 😉
