Question2
(37 Marks)
Wellness Limited, a company with a 31 December year end, produces a thick, foul-smelling
medicine that has been found to be excellent in warding off Hester in Wonderland
Syndrome (HIWS}, or micropsia, which is a disorienting neurological condition which affects
human visual perception. Patients with this disease perceive humans, parts of humans,
animals, and inanimate objects as substantially smaller than in reality.
Wellness Limited's factory operated from a building that it owned, situated in Mandume
Street in Windhoek. On 30 June 2023, however, the factory building was swallowed by a
giant sinkhole caused by a tropical storm.
This factory building had been purchased on 1 January 2023 for N$2 000 000 and was
thought to have a total useful life of 20 years and a residual value of nil.
Thankfully this happened at night while the building was empty. Wellness Limited was also
fortunate in that it owned another property three roads away in Independence Avenue. This
other property was, at the time, leased to Eduardo Ronalda under an operating lease.
Eduardo was generally late in paying his lease rentals, and this natural disaster gave
Wellness Limited a perfect opportunity to evict him with immediate effect so that they
could move their factory into the undamaged building:
• Was purchased on 1 January 2023 for N$300 000
• Had a fair value of N$550000 on 30 June 2023 and NSl 000 000 on 31 December 2023;
• Had a total estimated useful life of 6 years, estimated from the date of purchase;
• Had an estimated residual value of nil.
Wellness Limited measures:
• Its property, plant and equipment using the cost model; and
• Its investment properties on the fair value model.

Jacaranda (Pty) Ltd ("Jacaranda") is a company that operates in the furniture business
in Namibia and has a 31 December year end. It manufactures and distributes various
furniture to its customers including couches, cabinets, patio furniture and many more.

who was downsizing after the impact of Covid-19 on its business. The equipment was
purchased at a cost of N$111 000, payable within 30 days.
This manufacturing equipment is required to have a major inspection done every 3
years, on 31 December. The last major inspection was performed on 31 December
2016, at a cost of N$6 000, and the carrying amount of this inspection is included in
the cost of N$111 000.
Jacaranda paid cash of N$3 000 to a road transport contractor for delivery of the
manufacturing equipment. While this equipment was being assembled, it was
damaged, costing the company an additional N$400 for repairs. The repair, performed
on the 2 January 2018, did not constitute a replacement or renewal of a major
component.
The manufacturing equipment was delivered on 2 January 2018 and was in a condition
ready for use on that day. However, it Was only brought into use on 1 February 2018.
Jacaranda measures its equipment using the cost model and provides for depreciation
at 10% per annum on the straight-line method. The residual value of the equipment
on acquisition date was N$10 000. The next major inspection was performed on 31
December 2019 at a cost of N$6 600, paid in cash.
During the financial year ending 2021, many competitors decided to import cheap
furniture from abroad and hence the market was flooded with a supply of furniture.
As a result of this, the Financial manager (FM} of Jacaranda was concerned that their
market share might be eroded, and thus performed an impairment test on the
equipment. The below details were provided:
