Hi,
I've not got the question to hand but it looks like the factory has not yet been sold and it is therefore not prudent to recognise the profit on disposal until the actual sale has taken place.
Thanks

Don't forget that when it is categorised as a non-current asset held for sale that it is transferred at the LOWER of the carrying value and fair value less costs to sell, so that not profit is recognised but a loss (impairment) is. Thanks
