Unobservable Inputs and Assumptions Used in Determining the Fair Value of Biological Assets |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Accounting Policy
The Company defines biological assets as living plants up to the point of harvest. Biological assets are measured at fair value less costs to sell at the end of each reporting period in accordance with IAS 41 - Agriculture using the income approach. The Company utilizes an income approach to determine the fair value less cost to sell at a specific measurement date, based on the existing plants’ stage of completion up to the point of harvest. The Company cultivates cannabis and propagation plants biological assets. For cannabis plants, the stage of completion is determined based on the specific date of clipping the mother plant, the period-end reporting date, the average growth rate for the strain and facility environment and is calculated on a weighted average basis for the number of plants in the specific lot. Propagation plants are comprised solely of plants from the Bevo business, and are sold as living plants to customers and therefore not harvested into inventory. For propagation plants, the stage of completion is determined based on the propagation date, the promised date, and the period-end reporting date. | | | The following inputs and assumptions are all categorized within Level 3 on the fair value hierarchy and were used in determining the fair value of cannabis biological assets: | | | Inputs and assumptions | Description | Correlation between inputs and fair value | | | Average selling price per gram | Represents the average selling price per gram of dried cannabis net of excise taxes, where applicable, for the period for all strains of cannabis sold, which is expected to approximate future selling prices. | If the average selling price per gram were higher (lower), estimated fair value would increase (decrease). | | | | | | | | Weighted average yield per plant | Represents the weighted average number of grams of dried cannabis inventory expected to be harvested from each cannabis plant. | If the weighted average yield per plant was higher (lower), estimated fair value would increase (decrease). | | | Cost per gram to complete production | Based on actual production costs incurred divided by the grams produced in the period. | If the cost per gram to complete production was lower (higher), estimated fair value would increase (decrease). | | | | | | | | Stage of completion in the production process | Calculated by taking the weighted average number of days in production over a total average grow cycle of approximately twelve weeks. | If the number of days in production was higher (lower), estimated fair value would increase (decrease). | | | Production costs are capitalized to cannabis biological assets and include all direct and indirect costs relating to biological transformation. Costs include direct costs of production, such as labor, growing materials, as well as indirect costs such as indirect labor and benefits, quality control costs, depreciation on production equipment, and overhead expenses including rent and utilities. | | |
The following inputs and assumptions are all categorized within Level 3 on the fair value hierarchy and were used in determining the fair value of propagation plants biological assets: | | | Inputs and assumptions | Description | Correlation between inputs and fair value | | | Selling price per plant | Represents selling price per plant, which is based on committed purchase plans or approximate future selling price. | If selling price per plant were higher (lower), estimated fair value would increase (decrease). | | | Stage of completion in the production process | Calculated by taking the number of days in production over the promised date less the propagation date. | If the number of days in production was higher (lower), estimated fair value would increase (decrease). | | | Production costs are capitalized to propagation plants biological assets based on a rolling gross margin rate and includes all direct and indirect costs relating to biological transformation. Costs include direct costs of production, such as labor, growing materials, as well as indirect costs such as indirect labor and benefits, quality control costs, depreciation on production equipment, and overhead expenses including rent and utilities. | |
