Discuss and calculate the initial measurement of the machine


Assignment

Freshwater Bhd is a company that manufactures water filters. On 1 January 2017, the company purchased a specialised machine for the production of environmentally friendly water filters. The machine has a 10-year useful life. The following is the cost of purchasing the machine:

 

RM

Invoice price

1,500,000

General administrative cost

4,000

Handling cost

15,500

Testing cost

26,000

Installation cost

38,000

Import duties

10,000

The supplier has agreed to provide a trade discount of 2.5% off the invoice price. The company's policy is to use the cost model for subsequent measurement of the machine.

On 1 January 2019, the company spent RM500,000 to replace the machine part with a new one. The company also spent RM5,000 on dismantling services for the original part. Since then, the company has had to spend RM2,000 per year on a special lubricant for the new part. On that date, the carrying value of the original part was RM250,000. With the replacement, the useful life of the machine is extended to ten years, and it is also expected that the production capacity would increase by 10%.

On 31 December 2020, an impairment test was carried out on the machine. As a result, the estimated value-in-use and the fair value less cost-to-sell of the machine were RM1,000,000 and RM1,100,000, respectively. On 1 June 2021, the machine had some technical problems, and the company spent RM20,000 on repair costs to ensure the machine could operate as usual. The machine was then sold for RM1,000,000 on 30 June 2021.
