Paprika Co purchased 75% of the equity share capital of Salt Co on 30 April 20X4. Non-controlling interest are measured at fair value. The cost of sales of both companies for the year ended 30 April 20X6 are as follow Cost of sales Paprika Salt $ 100,000 60,000 The following information is provided: (1) Salt Co had machinery included in its net assets at acquisition with a carrying amount of $120,000 but a fair value of $200,000. The machinery had a remaining useful life of eight years at the date of acquisition. All depreciation is charged to cost of sales During the year, Salt Co sold some goods to Paprika Co for $32,000 at a margin of 25%. Three quarters of these goods remained in inventory at year end. What is the cost of sales in Paprika Co's consolidated statement of profit or loss for the year ended 30 April 20X6? $144,000 $132,000 $176,000 $140,000 Answer A $144,000 Consolidated cost of sales: Paprika 60000 Salt 100000 Additional depreciation for year (200,000-120,000)/8 = 10000 Unrealised profit in inventory (32,000 x 25%)= $8,000x 3/4 Less: Intragroup sales sold by Salt Co to Paprika Cooaevn 0o (32,000)= 144,000 I have a problem with this part Additional depreciation for year (200,000-120,000)/8 = 10000 The question asks for the cost of sales for the year ended 30 April 20X6 and the purchase of shares occurred on 30 April 20X4. So two years passed. So I put additional depreciation to be 20000.

I think it's the expense in terms of the "flow" of additional depreciation expense that is the relevant factor for this question.
