Chapter 25 Practise question MCQ 3 .
I am not sure how we arrived at the grant as $144?
March 6, 2016 at 9:07 am #303775It’s $1,000,000 x 60% x 60% x 40%
60% is the remainder of the grant after the first year = $600,000 at 30 June, 2013
60% x $600,000 is the remainder of the grant after the second year = $360,000 at 30 June, 2014
40% x $360,000 is the amount of the grant that will be credited to the statement of profit or loss in the year to 30 June, 2015
Ok?
March 6, 2016 at 9:45 am #303786I understood the first two parts wherein we are multiplying 1,000,000 by 60% for 2013 and 2014.. But I fail to understand the last part which is multiplying by 40%.
What I am assuming is that 600,000 and 360,000 is the carrying value of grant after deducting depreciation on it. But nor sure why are we multiplying by 40% in 2015.
March 6, 2016 at 9:58 am #303789To find the depreciation for the third year!
