Exotic Leisure is a Private Limited Company that operates a cruise ship. The ship was
acquired on 1 October 2007. Details of the cost of the ship's components and their estimated
useful lives are:
Component Original cost Sm Depreciation basis
Ship's hull, decks etc 50020 years straight-line
Propulsion system 200 Useful life of 40,000
hours
At 30 September 2014 no further capital expenditure had been incurred on the ship.
The measured expired life of the propulsion system at 30 September 2014 was 30,000
hours. Due to the unreliability of the engines, a decision was taken in early October
2014 to replace the whole of the propulsion system at a cost of $150 million. The
expected life of the new propulsion system was 60,000 hours and during the year
ended 30 September 2015 the ship had used its engines for 5,000 hours.
The company decided to repaint the ship's hull at a cost of $25 million. For the
purpose of calculating depreciation, all the work on the ship can be assumed to have
been completed on 1 October 2014. The residual value of the hull and Propulsion
system can be taken as nil.
Required: Compute charge to SOPL on account of the Cruise Ship (depreciation and
other charges) And the carrying value of the ship as on 30 September 2014 and 2015
