    Dear Tutor

    from the publish answer, there is no consideration/calculation for finance costs, neither in stage 1 or 2.

    stage 1: $10k * 8% effective rate
    stage 2: $346825 * 8%

    should we not take it into loss allowance? from lecture note, it looks we need to include it in.

    Many thanks.

    at stage 2, should use $356825 * 8%, only in stage 3, using net value of the investment

    I think we over-complicate impairment in teaching notes.

    B/f allowance is 10,000
    C/f allowance is 356,825

    Balance to P&L – some is interest and some is not, but the question is asking for a simplified explanation to directors.

    If that doesn’t make sense, please come back to me.
