Residual value 1 May 2011 50

Depreciation rate - 20% per annum straight-line
The tax base on 1 May 2013 was R200 000 which would be deductible in equal amounts on
30 April 2014 and 30 April 2015 against taxable income.
On 1 May 2013 there was a deferred tax liability of R36 000 due to the temporary difference in respect
of the wear and tear on the machine.
The estimates of the original useful life and residual value remained unchanged after the revaluation.
During 2014 the board of directors decided to disclose the machine in future at the net
replacement value. The revaluation on 30 April 2014 was performed by a sworn appraiser, W Mass,
on the net replacement value basis with reference to prices of similar new assets in an active
market. It is company policy that the revaluation surplus will be realised on disposal of the machine.
2. Investment property
On 31 August 2013 ABC Limited sold its only investment property for R1 600 000. Since ABC
Limited had already decided during the financial year ended 30 April 2013 to sell the investment
property, the 2004 financial statements reflected a deferred tax balance that was correctly
calculated and provided based on the intention to sell. Investment property was previously
accounted for according to the fair value model.
