SITUATIONAL PROBLEM 1
An SME operates an executive aviation service. The entitys only item of property, plant and equipment

as follows: the jet engine (60%), body (20%) and aviation equipment (10%) and furniture and fittings
(10%).
A condition of operating an aircraft is that it is inspected by the aviation authorities every three years.
An inspection costs P400,000. The jet had been inspected at the manufacturers expense before
delivery to the entity.
Aviation regulations require the jet engine to be replaced when it has flown 2,000,000 air miles.
Management intends fitting a new engine to the aircraft when it requires replacement so that the aircraft
can be used for approximately 10 years, at which time it intends to scrap the aircraft.

management assesses the useful life of the furniture and fittings as five years at which time they will be

scrapped and replaced.

23. What depreciation methods are most appropriate for the SME to apply to compute depreciation for
the significant parts of the aircraft:

At the beginning of year 1, Entity A grants share options to each of its 100 employees working in the
sales department. The share options will vest at the end of year 3, provided that the employees will
remain in the entitys employ, and provided that the volume of sales of a particular product increases by
at least an average of 5% per year. If the volume of sales of the product increases by an average of
between 5% and 10% per year, each employee will receive 100 share options. If the volume of sales
increases by an average of between 11% and 15% each year, each employee will receive 200 share
options. If the volume of sales increases by an average of 16% or more, each employee will receive 300
share options.On grant date, Entity A estimates that the share options have a fair value of P20 per
option. Entity A also estimates that the volume of sales of the product will increase by an average of bet
11% and 15% per year, and therefore expects that, for each employee who remains in service until the
end of year 3, 200 share options will vest. The entity also estimates, on the basis of a weighted average
probability, that 20% of employees will leave before the end of year 3. By the end of year 1, seven
employees have left and the entity still expects that a total of 20 employees will leave by the end of
year 3. Hence, the entity expects that 80 employees will remain in service for the three-year period.

Product sales have increased by 12% and the entity expects this rate of increase to continue over the
next 2 years. By the end of year 2, a further 5 employees have left, bringing the total to 12 to date. The
entity now expects only 3 more employees will leave during year 3, and therefore expects a total of
85% employees will remain at the end of year 3. Product sales have increased by 20%, resulting in an
average of 16% over the 2 years to date. The entity now expects that sales will average 16 percent or
more over the three-year period, and hence expects each sales employee to receive 300 share options at
the end of year 3.By the end of year 3, a further two employees have left. Hence, 14 employees left
during the three-year period, and 86 employees remain. The entitys sales have increased by an average
of 16 % over the three years.
