lower of cost and net realizable value?

A public limited company, Dairy, produces milk on its farms. It produces 30% of the countrys
milk that is consumed. Dairy owns 450 farms and has a stock of 210,000 cows and 105,000
heifers. The farms produce 8 million kilograms of milk a year and the average inventory held is
150,000 kilograms of milk. However, the company is currently holding stocks of 500,000
kilograms of milk in powder form. At December 31, 2014, the herds are

210,000 cows (3 years old), all purchased on or before Jan. 1, 2013

75,000 heifers, average age 1.5 years, purchased on July 1, 2014

The company has had problems during the year: Contaminated milk was sold to customers. As a
result, milk consumption has gone down. The government has decided to compensate farmers for
potential loss in revenue from the sale of milk. This fact was published in the national press on
Nov.1, 2014. Dairy received an official letter on Nov.10, 2014, stating that P5M would be paid to
it on March 2, 2015.
The companys business is spread over different parts of the country. The only region affected by
the contamination was Borthwick, where the government curtailed the milk production in the
region. The future discounted cash flow income from the cattle in the Borthwick region
amounted to P4M, after taking into account the government restriction order. The company feels
that it cannot measure the fair value of the cows in the region because of the problems created by
the contamination. There are 60,000 cows and 20,000 heifers in the region. All these animals had
been purchased on Jan. 1, 2013. A rival company had offered Dairy P3M for these animals after
estimated costs to sell and further offered P6M for the farms themselves in that region. Dairy has
no intention of selling the farms at present. The company has been applying IAS 41 since Jan. 1,
2013.
