Question

On 1 November 2018, Graceville Ltd purchased an item of property, plant and equipment for $50 000. The terms of the purchase were as follows: $50 000 could be paid within 30 days, or $65 000 in one year’s time. The management of Graceville opted to pay $65 000 in one year’s time.

Delivery and handling costs of $4 000 were incurred, as well as engineering fees of $1 200 to ensure that the asset was correctly installed. The asset began operations on 6 January 2019. During January, holding costs of $5 000 were incurred because the asset was operating at less than full capacity. In addition, $900 costs comprising labour and small parts were incurred in day-to-day servicing of the asset. Management of Graceville Ltd uses the revaluation model to account for the asset.

Required

Prepare any necessary general journal entry(ies) to initially record and measure the asset

in accordance with the requirements of AASB 116 ‘Property, Plant and Equipment’.
