    (i) Whitebirk requires a new machine, which will be included as part of its
    property, plant and equipment. Whitebirk therefore commenced construction
    of the machine on 1 February 20X6, and this continued until its completion
    which was after the year end of 31 May 20X6. The direct costs were $2 million
    in February 2016 and then $1 million in each subsequent month until the year
    end. Whitebirk has incurred finance costs on its general borrowings during the
    period, which could have been avoided if the machine had not been
    constructed. Whitebirk has calculated that the weighted average cost of
    borrowings for the period 1 February – 31 May 20X6 on an annualised basis
    amounted to 9% per annum.

    plz explain how to account for the same?

    Hi,

    i can’t just go through and do the entire answer for you, what is it specifically that you do not understand within the given answer? If you let me know then I can answer the question.

    Thanks
