On 1 October 2009 Mocca entered into a construction contract that was expected to take 27 months and therefore be completed on 31 December 2011. Details of the contract are: $’000 Agreed contract price 12,500 Estimated total cost of contract (excluding plant) 5,500 Plant for use on the contract was purchased on 1 January 2010 (three months into the contract as it was not required at the start) at a cost of $8 million. The plant has a four-year life and after two years, when the contract is complete, it will be transferred to another contract at its carrying amount.
