Hi John, Regarding Question 2 (a), why is the profit on sale of the Ev club the (premium+value using FCF) - net book value of non-current asset? Why Do we use the net book value of NCA? I don’t understand why they use this figure. Also, isn’t the value of the firm 6135? If so, why are we not just taking the premium as the profit? I appreciate your time.

The question is asking for the SOFP, and so this is prepared using financial accounting 'rules' - the NCA's are always shown at net book value in SOFP's.
