Dream Furniture Pty Ltd is a business that manufactures and sells furniture to suppliers across
Australia. The business was established in 2013 and is a large proprietary company with two
directors, James Tetra and Jess Victoria. The business operates in Geelong and is registered for
Goods and Services Tax (GST). The business has a financial year ending 30 June. When commencing

$1,200,000 (plus GST):
Fair value of
assets
Land $810,000
Building $480,000

$1,440,000

One year general insurance for the building $10,000 (plus GST)
Trade discount of 15% of the GST inclusive amount for the building.
Machinery:
Installation costs of the machinery $4,500 (plus GST)
Shipping of the machinery $1,500 (plus GST)
The building is expected to have a useful life of eight years and an estimated residual value of
$93,000. Dream Furniture Pty Ltd adopted the straight-line depreciation method for the building
and diminishing balance method (30%) for the machine.
Dream Furniture Pty Ltd adopted the revaluation model for both the land and building, and the cost
model for the machinery.
On 30 June 2014, James and Jess were discussing on whether they should change the depreciation
method for the machinery to the units of production method. It was decided that the depreciation
method remained the same.
On 30 June 2016, James and Jess obtained an independent valuation of the land and buildings as
suggested by their accountants. The independent valuation indicated that the land’s fair value was
$900,000 and the building’s fair value was $400,000. The valuation report stated that the residual
value of the building has been revised to $100,000. Also, the remaining useful life has been revised
to 8 years.

On 30 June 2018, there was a very bad storm that has damaged both the building and machinery.
The new valuation report stated the following:
Building:
Fair value of $200,000
Selling costs of $5,000
Value in use of $210,000
Machinery:
Fair value of $8,570
Selling costs of $525
Value in use $9,500

Introduction
This formal business report aims to assist Dream Furniture in their recording, expensing and reporting of non-cu
ent assets in conjunction with revenue recognition. Such an outcome will also involve analysing how Dream Furniture has recorded both assets and revenue in previous financial years. The report will also refer to and reference AASB 116, 15 and 136 as these are the accounting standards that are directly applicable to the cu
ent situation. This body of work looks to outline the mathematical calculations in a simple and straightforward manner to ensure the management team are able to fully comprehend the recommendations made and continue to achieve prosperity as a business.

Cost of Machinery
131,000
The cost of machinery included both installation costs and shipping of machinery. The shipping of machinery was included as it is directly attributable with
inging the asset to the location in which it is intended to be used (para 16, AASB 116). Instillation costs were also included as they would be required to ensure the machinery can be used in the way management intended (para 17. AASB 116).

The trade discount was included as it alters the amount of money the company will pay (para 16 AASB). The renovations were included in the cost as they were required to ensure the business was fit for its intended purpose (para 16 AASB).

Changing of Depreciation Methods for Machinery
Dream Furniture are permitted to change depreciation methods for machinery if they feel XXXXXXXXXXthere has been a change in the expected schedule of consumption. For instance, if they felt on the 30 June 2014 that the machines economic benefit would be reduced at a rate differing to what they initially calculated they may wish to change depreciation methods (para 61, AASB 116). The firm is cu
ently using the diminishing value depreciation method, which means it is depreciating more in its earlier years. However, Dream furniture may believe that the machinery will depreciate at a rate directly co
elated to the units that the machinery produces. Therefore, they would be advised to use the units of production method, where the machine depreciates based on the level of units it produces.
Revaluation
Revaluation increment under the revaluation model
An item of property, plant and equipment whose fair value can be measured reliably shall be ca
ied at a revalued amount (Para 31, AASB 116). Therefor Dream furniture has ca
ied out a revaluation on the 30 June 2016 on their land and buildings which were valued at $900,000 and $400,000 respectively. The land had a ca
ying amount of $678,000 and the buildings ca
ying amount at the time was $353,000, there for both the building and the lands fair value had an increase on their ca
ying amounts. As para 39 AASB 116 states that “if an asset’s ca
ying amount is increased as a result of a revaluation, the increase shall be recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity under the heading of revaluation surplus”. Therefore, the gain on both the land and building was recorded in the other comprehensive income account and transfe
ed to the revaluation surplus account.
