Notes
Training cost- Although well trained staff adds value to a business, MFRS
138 prohibits the capitalisation of training cost. This is because an entity
has insufficient control over the expected future economic benefits
arising from staff training, in other words staff are free to leave and work
for someone else. Training is part of the general cost of developing a
business as a whole.

Question 2
The standard does not permit re-instatement of development costs that
have been previously recognised as an expense, even when the criteria
for asset recognition are met in a subsequent period. Therefore for the
current year, the amount of development costs that should be capitalised
is RM20 million. The RM10 million written off in the prior year should not
be re-instated.
Question 3
The development costs of a project recognised as an asset should not
exceed the amount that is likely to be recovered from related future
economic benefit after deducting further development costs, related
production costs and selling and administrative costs directly incurred in
the marketing the product.
The net recoverable amount therefore sets the upper limit in which
development costs of a project should not be capitalised. The portion of
development costs in excess of the net recoverable amount should be
charge as an expenses immediately.
Question 6
Amortisation= Depreciation (straight- line bases)
MFRS 138 Intangible Assets require that 'an entity shall assess whether
the useful life of an intangible asset is finite (limited life) or indefinite
and, if finite, the length of, or number of production or similar units
constituting that useful life'.

Question 1
The facility will not be transferred until the backlog of orders is completed:
this demonstrates the facility is not available for immediate sale in its
present condition.
Question 3
Carrying ammount at 31st December year 9
Comment : value of property held for sales at 31 Dec year 9 is lower of
carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell, ie RM850,000
Question 6
a) Carrying amount at 1st Jan Year 3= RM640 million
Fair value less cost to sales= RM 550 million
Conclusion: value of property held for sales at 1st January Year 3 is lower
of carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell RM550 million.
Question 7
1. Carrying amount = Cost - ACCum depreciation
Depreciation straight line method= cost/useful life
RM 750000/10= RM75000
Until 31/12/2012= 2years 9 month
= (RM75000*2) + (RM75000*9/12)
= RM206250
Carrying amount = RM800000- RM 206250= RM 593750
Fair value less cost to sales= RM537500
Conclusion: value of machine held for sales at 31 December 2012 is lower
of carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell is RM537500
