    Study Notes

    Accounts Receivable

    • Accounts receivable is not a fixed asset; fixed assets include buildings, trucks, and land.

    Investment

    • Long-lived purchased items not used in normal operations are classified as investments, not fixed assets or expenses.

    Land

    • Land is not depreciated, while buildings, trucks, and equipment are considered depreciable fixed assets.

    Depreciable Cost

    • Depreciable cost is calculated as the difference between an asset's initial cost and its residual value.

    Double-declining-balance Method

    • The double-declining-balance method is recognized as an accelerated depreciation method compared to the straight-line and units-of-activity methods.

    Extraordinary Repairs

    • To record costs for extraordinary repairs, the journal entry includes a debit to Accumulated Depreciation.

    Example of Building Depreciation

    • A building's depreciable cost is $1,150,000, with a straight-line depreciation rate of 10%. The annual straight-line depreciation amounts to $115,000.

    Example of Truck Depreciation

    • For a truck costing $69,000, the depreciable cost is $57,000, with a depreciation rate of $0.19 per mile. The units-of-activity depreciation for a year with 77,000 driven miles is $14,630.

    Double-declining-balance Depreciation Example

    • A building's double-declining-balance rate is 5%, leading to a first-year depreciation of $68,750 on a cost of $1,375,000 with an estimated residual value of $250,000 and a useful life of 40 years.
