The following notes are relevant:

(i) Property, plant and equipment are depreciated in the following manner:
- Buildings 5% per annum straight line.
- Plant and equipment 25% per annum reducing balance.

Depreciation of buildings is part of administration costs whereas depreciation of plant and equipment should be treated as a cost of sale.

(ii) The land was revalued to$24,000,000 on 31 December 2010.

(iii) Projected income tax for the year ending 31 December 2010 is $976,000.

Finished goods tests found that a manufacturing machine had not been properly calibrated and that several production lots, which had cost $50,000 to produce, had been defectively processed. The goods cannot be sold under these terms and need to be amended at an additional cost of $20,000. Following the additional intervention, these items could then be sold at a price of $55,000. The defectively processed goods were part of closing inventories at their cost of $50,000.

(v) The 7% loan notes are 10-year loans due for repayment by 31 December 2014. Loan interest needs to be accrued for the second ½ year to 31 December 2010.
