a total cost of R90 000 exclusive of VAT. At date of acquisition the financial manager

weed-eaters. New information came to light during the current financial year and it
was decided to take into account residual values on both the lawn mowers and
weed-eaters. The lawn mowers are deemed to have an estimated residual value of
R2 000 per lawn mower and the weed-eaters R1 000 per weed-eater. These residual
values are exclusive of VAT.
