The following information is relevant:

a) Software of Star represents the depreciated cost of development of an integrated business accounting package. It was completed at a capitalized cost of $ 2, 880, 000 and went on sale on April 1, 20x8. Star directors are depreciating the software on a straight-line basis over an eight-year life i.e., $ 360, 000 per annum. However, the directors of Phar are of the opinion that a six-year life would be more appropriate as sale of business software rarely exceed this period.

b) The inventory of Phar on March 31 20x9 contains goods at a transfer price of 30,000 that were supplied during the year by Star who had marked them up with a profit of 25% on cost.

c) On March 31, 20x9 Star remitted to Phar a cash payment of $18,000. This was not received by Phar until early April.
