Question No 20
Explain about Capitalization of Dismantling Cost as per NAS 16 “Property, Plant &
Equipment”.
Answers/Hints:
Nepal Financial Reporting Standards (NFRS)
Answer 1.
Total amount to be included in the property, plant and equipment at 31 Asadh 2076:
Particulars Rs Million
Lease 25,000
Buildings 9,000
Fittings 6,000
Interest Capitalized (40,000*10%*9/12) 3,000
43,000
Only nine months’ interest can be capitalized, because NAS 23 states that capitalization of
borrowing costs must cease when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the asset
for its intended use or sale are complete.
Answer 2
As per NAS 02 “Inventories”
a) Value at Rs.12,000.Rs.10,000 is irrelevant. The rule is lower of cost or NRV, not
lower of cost or replacement cost. Since the special order is known to be profitable,
the NRV will be above the cost.
b) Value at NRV,i.e Rs.15,900,as this is below cost
(NRV=contract price,Rs.18,000-company’s share of modification cost i.e.Rs.2100)
Answer 3
This problem is based on NAS-37.The standard provides that an enterprise should recognize a
provision only when all of the following conditions are met:
1. There is a present obligation as a result of a past event;
2. It is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be
required to settle the obligation; and
3. A reliable estimate can be made of the amount of obligation.
In the present case, V Ltd fulfils all the above conditions the sale of pumps with a warranty
obligation constitutes the present obligation as a result of the past event. It is probable that
some outflow will be involved in setting the warranty obligation, satisfy the second condition.
As per the details based on past precedence reliable estimate can be made as under:
[6000*(5%of 100000)+1000*(10%of 100000)=Rs.400lakhs
Thus, V Ltd as on 31-03-2076 should make a provision for warranty obligation against sale of
vacuum pumps to the extent of rupees 400 lakhs.
