Large Mart has previously attempted to develop a “study pillow” which would have allowed
stu entsto upload study materia into their brain whilst sleeping. However, Large Mart has recently discovered that an American company
called Bpple already holds a patent for thistype of device. As a result, Large Mart has given up on its development attempts and decided to
sell the Bpple product, which is called iSLEEP.
In order to sell the iSLEEP, Large Mart has rented a second store in Armidale. The
renting contract is for a period of 6 month, with the possibility to extend the contract by a further 3 month. Large Mart signsthe renting f
contract on the 1 May 201 x. The rent for the store will be $10,000 per month, and rent payments will be made by bank transfer at the end of
each month.
As soon as the renting contractfor the new store is signed, Large Mart employstwo UNE students (Chuck and Morgan) to get
students interested in the iSLEEP by using it in the UNE library to study for their exams. Chuck and Morgan will later work for the store as P
shop assistants and they are payed $30 for each hour of work (this includestheir work in the store and the time they spend using the iSLEEP z
in the library to study for their exams). In May 201 x Chuck spends 60 hours studying for his exams and Morgan spends 100 hours studying for
his exams. Howev er, Chuck and Morgan will not be paid for their work until the end of June.
The interior of the new store is designed in
China and manufactured in the United States ofAmerica. An important part of the store design is a big bed on which customers can lie to
test the iSLEEP. The bed is delivered on the 1 June 201 x. On that day, Large Mart also receives an invoice of $30,000 from the Chinese
designers of the bed as well as an invoice of $5,000 from the American manufacturer. The truck driver who delivered the bed also left an
invoice of $1,000 (which consists of $500 for transportation services and $500 for assembly of the bed). Large Mart pays all three inv oices
on the 10 June 201 x through a bank transfer. As part of this payment Large Mart claims an early payment discount of $500 from the invoice of
the manufacturer of the bed.
After the new store is completed, Large Mart orders 250 iSLEEPs from Bpple for a price of $700 per item, and
these iSLEEPs arrive on 1 June 201 x, and are paid via bank transfer on the same day.
After this initial purchase, the following purchase
and salestransactions take place within the new store:
On 2 June 201 x UNE purchases 100 iSLEEPs for the library for a price of $3,000
per iSLEEP on credit. Two days later UNE noticesthat the Library does not hav e sufficient space for all 100 iSLEEPs and asks Large Martto
return 50 unused iSLEEPs. Large Mart allows UNEto return the 50 excess iSLEEPs and returnsthem to the Inventory of the store. UNE then
paysthe remaining iSLEEPs on the 6 June 201 x, after deducting an early payment discount of 10% from the invoice.

At the end ofJune 201 x (which is also the end ofthe
financial year), Large Mart finds out that Bpple will startto sell a new v ersion of the iSLEEP (called the iSLEEP2) early in July 201x.As a
result, Large Mart believesthat all iSLEEPsthat are currently in store can only be sold if the sales price is immediately reduced to $500 5
per iSLEEP.
On 1 July 201 x, Large Mart leases a company car for the service department of the Bpple store (called the “Nerd Herd’).
The duration of the ease is8 years, and the car has an expected useful life of 9 years. The lease contract requires Large Mart to pay
$5,000 at the time the lease is signed. This payment is made via a bank transfer. Afurther $8,000 must be paid (also via bank transfer) on
the 30 June of each year, starting on the 30 June 201x+1. The lease contract states that Large Mart can cancel the lease at any time during
the lease period, but that Large Mart must pay a fine equal to 85% of the remaining lease liability if the lease contract is cancelled. The
interest rate implicit in the lease is 10%. Large Mart decided to enter into the lease agreement instead of purchasing the car because the
purchase price would have been $47,800, and Large Mart did not have sufficient cash resourcesto make such a purchase at that time.
The
car is depreciated using the same depreciation method that is used for all other Large Mart motor v ehicles (see Large Mart Depreciation
Schedule in Topic 2). Large Mart expectsthatthe residual v alue of the car at the end of the useful life will be $500. The lease contract
also includes a clause that allows Large Martto purchase the car atthe end of the lease term for a price of $400. At that time the fair
value ofthe car is expected to be $1,000.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Large Mart has decided to use the exemption rules outlined in AASB 16,
paragraphs 5-8 for leased items to which these exemptions apply.
