    he didnt explain about disclosure requirements and impairment reviews…:(

    And for the amortisation we should amortise the intangible assets based on expected revenue or time basis?

      At the start of every lecture there is an introduction that tells you that you need to download our free lecture notes that are used in the lecture!!!
      The link to them is above the lecture – it says “Download F3 notes”

      I have no idea what you are talking about – what we teach is what is relevant for the exam.

      Discontinued operations are not examined in Paper F3.
      You should ask this on the Paper F7 page.

    the lecturer says when you are able to measure costs.What type of costs does he mean?

      I think he means the cost of machines,labour and other manufacturing costs because he spoke about the measurable cost in development when the finished new product is manufactured for sale.

    @sangria9, if you plan to dispose the microscope after 2 years, then 2 years, but if not depreciate it for 5 years. depreciation may be due to passage of time(or nonuse).

    @sangria9, under the accrual concept, it should be 2 years.

    If we have expenses for development not just wages, but also for example: fees to consultant, fees for electricity, fees for paper and pencils – should we capitalise it and show in balance sheet?

      @sangria9, They should be capitalize when they are directly attributable costs necessary to create,produce and prepare the asset to be capable of operating it in manner intended by management.

        is there any lecture for amortisation?

      • John Moffat says

        February 13, 2014 at 8:28 am

        Amortisation is simply another word for depreciation. We call it amortisation when it is an intangible asset.

      it means that for some reason that your PC can’t connect to the server where the lecture is hosted,
      realod the page, and hopefully it will connect, it could be just temporary glitch
      if it persists, maybe you are behind a firewall, if so, please contact your internet service provider to check this for you
