Go Explore is the trading name of Go Explore Pty Ltd which is a private company, incorporated in Australia.
Go Explore is seeking to expand and will be meeting with potential financiers in the near future. As a result, it wants to maximise its taxable income as part of a broader picture of showing the best results it can.
You have a discussion with the CFO (who has no real idea about stock valuation for tax purposes) and that discussion involves talking with the CFO about the different methods of stock valuation available for income tax purposes. You do not talk about obsolescence as you know (and have confirmed) it not an issue for Go Explore as they keep fairly low stock levels and the stock turnover is generally good.
The CFO advises that whilst some stock lines actually cost more than their market or replacement values, some cost significantly less. The following information was provided to you:

You are not sure about the logic of the replacement value of the sleeping bags being higher than the market selling value but the CFO advises that it is soothing to do with the “super cold snap happening down south” which means that the suppliers have put up their price”. 90% of sales by Go Explore are from Brisbane and they cannot sell these super warm sleeping bags at high prices.
Go Explore has lots of other stock lines as well but wants to value these at cost as it does not have details on the other values. The value of the closing stock (not including the stock lines detailed above) at cost totals $680,000.
All stock for the current year has been valued at cost for accounting purposes and in the prior year ‘cost’ was also used for both accounting and tax numbers. Prior year closing stock was costed at $610,000.
Other results for the current year were:
Sales

$3,600,000
|
Purchases
|
$2,800,000
|
Operating Costs
|
$400,000

Go Explore is registered for GST and all amounts above are GST exclusive.
