Question B2 (a) Black Sea Ltd prepares financial statements to 31 December 2020. The following events occurred during 2020: I. II. III. IV. V. On 1 January 2020, Black Sea acquired a new machinery costing 5 million. This machinery will require a complete overhaul after 5 years of use, at an estimated value of 500,000. Thus, Black Sea wants to make a provision of 100,000 at the year ends 31 December 2020 and then to increase the provision by 100,000 over the remaining 4 years to spread the overhaul cost over the years 2020-2024. On 1 August 2020, Black Sea took out a 12-month operating lease on a factory premises at the rent of 7,500 per month. However, these premises are no longer needed and the lease contract in non-cancellable. Black Sea wants to make a provision of 52,500 in its financial statements for the year 31 December 2020. In November 2020, Black Sea decided to sell one of its segments. No buyer had been found on 31 December 2020, but the sale is expected to cause losses of 400,000 when it takes place. Black Sea is keen to provide for this loss in the financial statements for the year to 31 December 2020. In February 2020, Black Sea guaranteed a 300,000 bank loan provided to Caribbean Sea Ltd, which seemed to be in a strong financial position until the mid of 2020 when its position had worsened. On 31 December 2020, it seemed likely that Black Sea would be required to honour its guarantee. A company sells goods under warranty. If all goods have a minor or major defects, the company will incur repair expenses of 1m and 4m, respectively. Experience shows that 75% of goods have no defect, 20% have minor and 5% have major. Required: According to the rules of IAS 37, explain whether Black Sea is allowed to take a provision for each of the previous events?
