opened a chemical reprocessing plant. The plant was due to be active for five years until 30 June 20X9, when it would be decommissioned. At 1 July 20X4, the costs of decommissioning the plant were estimated to be K4 million in 5 years' time. The company considers that a discount rate of 12% is appropriate for the calculation of a present value, and the discount factor at 12% for Year 5 is 0.567. What is the total charge to the statement of profit or loss in respect of the decommissioning for the year ended 30 June 20X5?
