i) Discussion of accounting treatment of following :
1) As tax rate reduced to 25% from 26% and applicable for the repective year it self then there is decreament in provision for income tax and it would lead to increase in profit after tax.
So ptofit after tax =1.65 million
profit before tax = 2.23
2) As per IAS1 10 adjusting event are those events whose condition exist on balance sheet date. So fire broke down on 15/02/2019 and balance sheet date is 31/03/2019. so decrement in value of inventory will be adjusted.
Profit at the end of year decrease by RM 50,000
3) Insolvency of debtor declared by insolvency department on 6/01/2019 that is before balance sheet date so as per IAS 10 these are considered as adjusting events . So profit would be decrease by RM 30,000.
4) As per IAS 40 Investment   property can be measured at cost or fair value. And change in fair value adjusted through profit and loss account . So in given case fair value reduced by RM 300000/- . So profit decresed by RM 300000/-
Million
ii) Profit before tax = 2.23
Less: Fire expenses 0.05
Less : bad debts expense 0.03
Less : decrease in fair value 0.9
Net profit before tax 1.25
Less tax @25 % 0.3125
Profit after tax= 0.9375
