With reference to the above technical article part 1 example 3 – Adam Co’s. May I know why R & D on project Z of $500,000 was not included in capital employed adjustments in 2009 despite being deducted from income in both years. Thanks in anticipation
I’m not sure what technical article you are referring to, but it would be usual to add R&D back to P%L and the capital employes. If it’s not written off, it must be capitalised.
Technical article on Economic Value Added (EVA)
EVA uses the capital at the start of the financial period. The first R&D expense is during 2009, so that has not been charged to the opening capital of 2009.
