The production equipment for the new confectionery line would cost $2 million and an additional initial investment of $750,000 would be needed for working capital. Capital allowances (tax-allowable depreciation) on a 25% reducing balance basis could be claimed on the cost of equipment. Profit tax of 30% per year will be payable one year in arrears. A balancing allowance would be claimed in the fourth year of operation.
The average general level of inflation is expected to be 3% per year and selling price, variable costs, fixed costs and working capital would all experience inflation of this level. BRT Co uses a nominal after-tax cost of capital of 12% to appraise new investment projects.
Required:
(a) Assuming that production only lasts for four years, calculate the net present value of investing in the new product using a nominal terms approach and advise on its financial acceptability (work to the nearest $1,000). (13 marks)
(b) Comment briefly on the proposal to use a four-year time horizon, and calculate and discuss a value that could be placed on after-tax cash flows arising after the fourth year of operation, using a perpetuity approach. Assume, for this part of the question only, that before-tax cash flows and profit tax are constant from year five onwards, and that capital allowances and working capital can be ignored. (5 marks)
(c) Discuss THREE ways of incorporating risk into the investment appraisal process. (7 marks)
Plant for use on the contract was purchased on 1 January 2010 (three months into the contract as it was not required at the start) at a cost of $8 million.

Annual depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method (assuming a nil residual value) and charged to the contract on a monthly basis at 1/12 of the annual charge.
The correctly reported income statement results for the contract for the year ended 31 March 2010 were:

(a) Your assistant has been reading the IASB’s Framework for the preparation and presentation of financial statements (Framework) and as part of the qualitative characteristics of financial statements under the heading of ‘relevance’ he notes that the predictive value of information is considered important. He is aware that financial statements are prepared historically (i.e. after transactions have occurred) and offers the view that the predictive value of financial statements would be enhanced if forward-looking information (e.g. forecasts) were published rather than backward-looking historical statements.
Required:
By the use of specific examples, provide an explanation to your assistant of how IFRS presentation and disclosure requirements can assist the predictive role of historically prepared financial statements. (6 marks)
