The following excerpt is from McCarthy v McCarthy, 2018 BCSC 1677 (CanLII):

In J.L.H. v. P.J.H., 2017 BCSC 2192 at para. 20, the court held that consideration of whether an offer ought reasonably to have been accepted, is to be assessed at the time the offer is open for acceptance, without reference to the award ultimately made at trial (see also Richardson v. Richardson, 2012 BCSC 1187, at para. 10).
