If an oil rig was built in the sea, the cost to be capitalised is likely to include the cost of constructing the asset and the present value of the cost of dismantling it. If the asset cost $10 million to construct, and would cost $4 million to remove in 20 years, then the present value of this dismantling cost must be calculated. If interest rates were 5%, the present value of the dismantling costs are calculated as follows: $4 million x 1/1.0520 = $1,507,558
The total to be capitalised would be $10 million + $1,507,558 = $11,507,558.
This would be depreciated over 20 years, so 11,507,558 x 1/20 = $575,378 per year.
Each year, the liability would be increased by the interest rate of 5%.
In year 1 this would mean the liability increases by $75,378 (making the year end liability $1,582,936).
This increase is taken to the finance costs in the statement of profit or loss.
Consider a situation involving determining right and wrong. Do you believe utilitarianism provides a more objective viewpoint than moral rights in this context? Why or why not? How about when comparing utilitarianism to principles of justice? Share your thoughts.
Reflect on this statement: "Every principle of distributive justice, whether that of the egalitarian, the capitalist, the socialist, the libertarian, or Rawls, in the end is illegitimately advocating some type of equality." Do you agree or disagree with this assertion? Why might someone claim this, and how would you respond?
