    Please don’t make me search through finding the December 2013 exam!

    If the adjustment is made in accordance with IAS 11, then, no, it is no longer relevant

    But if the adjustment is merely a calculation of attributable revenue, attributable costs and therefore attributable profits then, yes, it probably is still relevant

    Those figures have to be calculated somehow whether the incident is before, during or after the existence of IAS 11

    Will that do or must I really find December 2013?

    Sorry. here is the adjustment I was asking about. Is it relevant?

    (i) The balance on the construction contract is made up of the following items:
    Cost incurred to date $14 million
    Value of contract billed (work certified) $10 million

    The contract commenced on 1 October 2012 and is for a fixed price of $25 million. The costs to complete the contract at 30 September 2013 are estimated at $6 million. Moby’s policy is to accrue profits on construction contracts based on a stage of completion given by the work certified as a percentage of the contract price.

    IFRS 16 has made no difference to this calculation:

    $5 million projected profits
    40% complete ((10/25) *100)

    OK?
