    Question) The ice cream company is purchasing a second-hand polishing machine from a competitor who has gone bankrupt. It will incur the following costs:

    Agreed price to be paid to vendor $8000
    Dismantling the machine at its current location $400
    Transportation to the ice cream’s factory $350
    Machine refurbishment costs prior to re-installation $175
    Re-installation $125

    Under IAS 16, the total included in non-current assets in respect of the machine should be ?

    All the costs should be included right. Therefore, it gives $9050.

    The machine refurbishment costs is included because its a second-hand machine right? If it was a new machine, it would not have been included right sir?

    “All the costs should be included right”

    Correct

    “If it was a new machine, it would not have been included”

    If it had been a new machine, it wouldn’t have needed the refurbishment!
