In Year 1, Victoria Textiles Limited decided that its Asian operations had expanded such that an Asian office should be established. The office would be involved in selling Victoria's current product lines; it was also expected to establish supplier contacts. In the Asian market, there were a number of small manufacturers of top-quality fabrics, particularly silk and lace, but from Victoria's home office in Ontario it was difficult to find and maintain these suppliers. To assist in doing so, a wholly owned company, Victoria Textiles (India) Limited, was created, and a facility was established in India in January Year 2. The new company, VTIL, was given the mandate from head office to buy and sell with other Victoria divisions and offices across Canada, as if it were an autonomous, independent unit. To establish the company, an investment of 10,000,000 Indian rupees (IR) was made on January 1, Year 2.
VTIL proved to be quite successful, as shown in the following financial statements at December 31, Year 4. After one year of operations, VTIL had borrowed funds and expanded facilities substantially, as the initial market estimates had turned out to be quite conservative. However, during this time the rupee had fallen in value relative to the Canadian dollar. As a result, Victoria's management was somewhat confused about how to evaluate VTIL's success, given the changing currency values.
Additional Information

⢠Of the original investment of IR1 0 million, IR4 million was used to acquire plant and equipment, which is being depreciated on a straight-line basis over 10 years.

(A half-year's depreciation was recorded in Year 3.) depreciation expense of IR1,000 in Year 4 and IR700 in Year 3 is included in operating expenses.
⢠Inventory is accounted for on the FIFO basis. The inventory at the end of Year 3 and Year 4 was acquired when the exchange rates were $0.045 and $0.027 per rupee, respectively.
