    Hi there,
    Hope you are all safe,

    I have an issue with the question 31 a of the past paper September December 2019 about the inventory adjustments.

    It states:

    Inventory adjustment
    The disposal of the inventory at a discounted price would be classified as an adjusting event in accordance with IAS® 10 Events
    After the Reporting Period.
    Retail price of the inventory $1·5 million; GP margin 20% = $0·3 million
    Closing inventory (currently credited to SOPL) $1·2 million
    A write down to NRV would require a $0·6m charge to cost of sales thereby increasing it to $70·6 million and reducing profit
    from operations to $12·56 million. In the statement of financial position, inventory is written down to $3·36 million and
    retained earnings will be adjusted to $32·28 million.

    I am not so sure how do they find this NRV amount and how do they find this 0.6M to be charged in the SPL. I only assume that the question said: inventory were sold at 50% of what it had cost so then I would assume the 1.2 M at 50% gives me 0.6M.

    If someone could explain it more in details?
    Thanks
