Hello tutor,
With regards to question 3 in the mini exercises on the above topic
Kindly help me understand how you arrived at the adjustment of 800 as shown in the answer.
Following your simplified method in the lectures, I had 1m-(1M÷2.5)=600k

There’s only a half year depreciation to consider
Profit on transfer is $1m and that represents $200,000 for each half year
So out of that profit of $1m, $200,000 is realised so only $800,000 is the pup at the end of the year
OK?
