Section B - Case 1: NovaGrid (Question 1 of 5)

Scenario: NovaGrid, a telecom infrastructure company, entered into a contract on 1 January 20X5 to build a specialized network for a client and maintain it for 2 years. The total contract price is $1,200,000. If sold separately, the network build would cost $1,000,000 and the 2-year maintenance would cost $400,000. The network was completed and handed over on 31 December 20X5.

Additionally, NovaGrid leased a specialized crane on 1 January 20X5 for 3 years. Payments are $50,000 annually in arrears. The implicit interest rate is 5%. (PV of $1 annuity for 3 yrs at 5% = 2.723).

Question: Under IFRS 15, how much of the total transaction price should be allocated to the network build performance obligation?

Answer options:

A.

$150,000

B.

$136,150

C.

$142,857

D.

$50,000

How to approach this question

Multiply the annual payment by the annuity factor provided to find the present value of the lease payments.

Full Answer

B.$136,150✓ Correct
Under IFRS 16, the initial Right-of-Use asset is measured at the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability (plus any advance payments, initial direct costs, etc., which are zero here). Lease liability = $50,000 x 2.723 = $136,150.

Common mistakes

Using the undiscounted total of $150,000.
