INVENTORIES
Other issues
• Imported inventory (IAS 21)
• Measured at spot exchange rate on date risks and rewards
are obtained
• Inventory is not adjusted for subsequent exchange rate
movements
• Service providers
• Cost of service for which revenue is yet to be recognised,
recognised as inventory
• Cost will comprise mostly labour e.g. design costs
• Joint and by-products
• One process and multiple products
• Allocate costs on a rational and consistent basis
• By-products
• Usually immaterial - measured at NRV & deducted from cost
of main product
