The directors of the company estimate that £3 million of the expenditure relates to the development of a new product that will be launched later in 2024 and the remaining expenses relate to pure research. The new product is expected to earn substantial profits. Whilst the specialised machinery has not been recorded, the rest of the figures have been included within Cost of Sales. 4) Included within the Plant and Machinery was a machine that was imported from Poland on 30th June 2021 and costed £260,000.

The plant had a carrying value at 1 April 2023 of £1 million made up of a cost of £4 million and accumulated depreciation of £3 million. As there is demand for such an asset, the company is relatively confident that this asset would be sold in a short amount of time. The current market value of the plant is £1.2 million and it would cost £400,000 to dismantle the machinery to make it available to the purchaser. 7) The inventory at 31 March 2024 includes £4 million of slow-moving goods. Manhattan Plc is trying to sell these to another company but has not been successful in obtaining a reasonable offer.

Additionally, during the year end stock-take the auditors noticed that £500,000 of inventory was missing, this had been included in the trial balance.
