Dear Tutor,
I have question about Question #3, exam December 2012.
Why there was no adjustment to capital employed as to economic depreciation?
I ACCA technical article about EVA is written, that we should Adjust value of non-current
assets (and capital employed) to reflect economic depreciation not accounting depreciation.
Thank you!
Evgeniia
Becaause the question says:
“In previous years, it can be assumed that economic and accounting depreciation were the same.” ie for 2011 and before. So, the opening CE as at 1/1/2012 is not affected by historical depreciation adjustments. Remember EVA uses opening CE.
Thank you very much, dear Gromit!
