Hi sir, may I knw what are the similarities and differences for investment property and property, plant and equipment?
thanks sirMay 6, 2018 at 2:39 pm #450326PPE is held for use in the business
Investment property is held for its income earning potential or anticipated capital appreciation
Similarities? They are both items of non-current assets
Will that do?
May 6, 2018 at 7:01 pm #450369Other than there are both NCA, is there any other similarities?
May 6, 2018 at 7:06 pm #450372Yes, both involve property
I don’t know where you want me to go with this … I could be silly and say “Yes, both are the subject of their own IAS” or I could say that both are depreciated (PPE always and Investment Property when applying the cost model)
Why are you asking – is this a question that has been asked of you? Because you’re not likely to have a question in F7 / Financial Reporting that asks for differences and similarities
OK?
