Facts: A South African public company constructed a warehouse during 20X1. Costs involved in building the warehouse (or incurred after construction) included, among others: Payment of wages and benefits to construction workers, who were already employed by the company ($3 million). Exterior paint for the building ($80,000). A test production run, in which the plant tested its ability to produce its products ($100,000). Payment of wages to construction workers for service issues arising after the plant was placed in service ($200,000). In 20X2, an appraisal by the company's local tax assessor indicated that the building's value had increased by $5 million. Required: Determine whether the company is subject to the requirements of IFRS (based on the home country). Cite your source for this determination. Locate the relevant guidance, then determine which of the above-listed costs may be included in the initial measurement (i.e., capitalized value) of the plant when the plant is first recognized in 20X1, citing your sources. Certain costs may be addressed directly by the guidance; others may require judgment in applying principles from the guidance. Determine whether the property's value should be adjusted in year 2 (20X2). Using an IFRS/ U.S. GAAP comparison guide, state how your response to question 3 would differ if this company had been subject to U.S. GAAP. Cite the source for your response.

George Young Industries (GYI) acquired industrial robots at the
beginning of 2018 and added them to the company’s assembly process.
During 2021, management became aware that the $2.8 million cost of
the equipment was inadvertently recorded as repair expense on GYI’s
books and on its income tax return. The industrial robots have
10-year useful lives and no material salvage value. This class of
equipment is depreciated by the straight-line method for financial
reporting purposes and for tax purposes it is considered to be
MACRS 7-year property. Cost deducted over 7 years by the modified
accelerated recovery system as follows:
