Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2 Learning Objective 1 Explain the Accounting for Plant Asset Expenditures Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 3 Plant Asset Expenditures (1 of 2) Plant assets are resources that have physical substance (a definite size and shape), are used in the operations of a business, are not intended for sale to customers, are expected to provide service to the company for a number of years, except for land. Referred to as property, plant, and equipment; plant and equipment; and fixed assets. Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 4 Plant Asset Expenditures (2 of 2) Plant assets play a key role in ongoing operations. Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 5 The Cost of Plant Assets (1 of 10) Historical Cost Principle Requires that companies record plant assets at cost Cost consists of all expenditures necessary to acquire an asset and make it ready for its intended use Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 6 The Cost of Plant Assets (2 of 10) Land All necessary costs incurred in making land ready for its intended use increase (debit) the Land account. Costs typically include: 1. cash purchase price 2. closing costs such as title and attorney’s fees 3. real estate brokers’ commissions 4. accrued property taxes and other liens on land assumed by purchaser Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 7 The Cost of Plant Assets (3 of 10) Illustration: Lew Ltd. acquires real estate at a cash cost of HK$2,000,000. The property contains an old warehouse that is razed at a net cost of HK$60,000 (HK$75,000 in costs less HK$15,000 proceeds from salvaged materials). Additional expenditures are the attorney’s fee, HK$10,000, and the real estate broker’s commission, HK$80,000. Determine the amount to be reported as the cost of the land. Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 8 The Cost of Plant Assets (4 of 10) Required: Determine amount to be reported as the cost of the land. Land Cash price of property (HK$2,000,000) HK$2,000,000 Net removal cost of warehouse (HK$60,000) 60,000 Attorney's fees (HK$10,000) 10,000 Real estate broker’s commission (HK$80,000) 80,000 Cost of Land HK$2,150,000 Lew makes the following entry: Land 2,150,000 Cash 2,150,000 Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 9 The Cost of Plant Assets (5 of 10) Land Improvements Structural additions with limited lives that are made to land. Cost includes all expenditures necessary to make the improvements ready for their intended use. Examples: driveways, parking lots, fences, landscaping, and underground sprinklers Limited useful lives Expense (depreciate) cost of land improvements over their useful lives Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 10 The Cost of Plant Assets (6 of 10) Buildings Includes all costs related directly to purchase or construction. Purchase costs: Purchase price, closing costs (attorney’s fees, title insurance, etc.) and real estate broker’s commission Remodeling and replacing or repairing the roof, floors, electrical wiring, and plumbing Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 11 The Cost of Plant Assets (7 of 10) Buildings Includes all costs related directly to purchase or construction. Construction costs: Contract price Payments for architects’ fees Building permits Excavation costs Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 12 The Cost of Plant Assets (8 of 10) Equipment Include all costs incurred in acquiring the equipment and preparing it for use. Costs typically include: Cash purchase price Sales taxes Freight charges Insurance during transit paid by purchaser Assembling, installing, and testing Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 13 The Cost of Plant Assets (9 of 10) Illustration: Lenard Huang Group purchases a delivery truck at a cash price of HK$420,000. Related expenditures consist of sales taxes HK$13,200, painting and lettering HK$5,000, motor vehicle license HK$800, and a three-year accident insurance policy HK$16,000. Compute the cost of the delivery truck. Blank Truck Cash price HK$420,000 Sales taxes 13,200 Painting and lettering 5,000 Blank Blank Cost of Delivery Truck HK$438,200 Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 14 The Cost of Plant Assets (10 of 10) Illustration: Lenard Huang Group purchases a delivery truck at a cash price of HK$420,000. Related expenditures consist of sales taxes HK$13,200, painting and lettering HK$5,000, motor vehicle license HK$800, and a three-year accident insurance policy HK$16,000. Prepare the journal entry to record these costs. Equipment 438,200 License Expense 800 Prepaid Insurance 16,000 Cash 455,000 Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 15 Expenditures During Useful Life Ordinary Repairs are expenditures to maintain the operating efficiency and productive life of the unit. Debit to Maintenance and Repairs Expense Referred to as revenue expenditures Additions and Improvements are costs incurred to increase the operating efficiency, productive capacity, or useful life of a plant asset. Debit plant asset affected Referred to as capital expenditures Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Son, Inc. 16 DO IT! 1: Cost of Plant Assets Assume that Jing Feng Heating and Cooling purchases a delivery truck for ¥150,000 cash, plus sales taxes of ¥9,000 and delivery costs of ¥5,000. The buyer also pays ¥2,000 for painting and lettering, ¥6,000 for an annual insurance policy, and ¥800 for a motor vehicle license. Explain how each of these costs would be accounted for. Solution The first four payments (¥150,000, ¥9,000, ¥5,000, and ¥2,000) are included in the cost of the truck (¥166,000) The payments for insurance and the license are operating costs and therefore are expensed Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Son, Inc. 17 Learning Objective 2 Apply Depreciation Methods to Plant Assets Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 18 Depreciation Methods Depreciation Process of allocating to expense the cost of a plant asset over its useful life in a rational and systematic manner. Process of cost allocation, not asset valuation Applies to land improvements, buildings, and equipment, not land Depreciable, because the revenue-producing ability of asset will decline over the asset’s useful life Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 19 Factors in Computing Depreciation Depreciation expense is reported on the income statement. Accumulated depreciation is reported on the balance sheet as a deduction from plant assets. Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 20 Depreciation Methods (1 of 2) Management selects the method it believes best measures an asset’s contribution to revenue over its useful life. Examples include: 1) Straight-line method. 2) Units-of-activity method. 3) Declining-balance method. Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 21 Depreciation Methods (2 of 2) Illustration: Barb’s Florists purchased a small delivery truck on January 1, 2020. Cost €13,000 Expected salvage value € 1,000 Estimated useful life in years 5 Estimated useful life in miles 100,000 Required: Compute depreciation using the following. (a) Straight-Line (b) Units-of-Activity (c) Declining Balance Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Son, Inc. 22 Straight-Line Method (1 of 3) Expense is same amount for each year Depreciable cost = Cost less residual value Residual Depreciable Cost - Value = Cost €13,000 - €1,000 = €12,000 Annual Depreciable Useful Life Depreciation Cost ÷ (in years) = Expense €12,000 ÷ 5 = €2,400 Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Son, Inc. 23 Straight-Line Method (2 of 3) Computations End of Year Depreciable Annual Accumulated Book Year Cost x Rate = Expense Depreciation Value 2020 $12,000 x 20% = € 2,400 € 2,400 €10,600* 2021 12,000 x 20 = 2,400 4,800 8,200 2022 12,000 x 20 = 2,400 7,200 5,800 2023 12,000 x 20 = 2,400 9,600 3,400 2024 12,000 x 20 = 2,400 12,000 1,000 €12,000 Journal Entry 2020 Depreciation Expense 2,400 *€13,000 − €2,400 Accumulated Depreciation 2,400 Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 24 Straight-Line Method (3 of 3) Assume the delivery truck was purchased on April 1, 2020.

The machine is estimated to have a 10-year life with a €2,000 residual value. What journal entry would Iron Mountain Ski Corporation make at December 31, 2020, if it uses the straight-line method of depreciation? Residual Annual Year Cost - Value ÷ Rate = Expense 2020 €50,000 - €2,000 ÷ 10% = €4,800 Depreciation Expense 4,800 Accumulated Depreciation 4,800 Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 26 Units-of-Activity Method (1 of 2) Companies estimate total units of activity to calculate depreciation cost per unit Expense varies based on units of activity Depreciable cost is cost less salvage value Often referred to as units-of-production method Depreciable Total Units Depreciable Cost Cost ÷ of Activity = per Unit €12,000 ÷ 100,000 miles = €0.12 Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 27 Units-of-Activity Method (2 of 2) Computations End of Year Units of Annual Accumulated Book Year Activity x Rate = Expense Depreciation Value 2020 15,000 x €.012 = € 1,800 € 1,800 €11,200* 2021 30,000 x.012 = 3,600 5,400 7,600 2022 20,000 x.012 = 2,400 7,800 5,200 2023 25,000 x.012 = 3,000 10,800 2,200 2024 10,000 x.012 = 1,200 12,000 1,000 Journal Entry 2020 Depreciation Expense 1,800 *€13,000 − €1,800 Accumulated Depreciation 1,800 Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 28 Declining-Balance Method (1 of 3) Accelerated method Decreasing annual depreciation expense over asset’s useful life Double declining-balance rate is double the straight- line rate Rate applied to book value Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 29 Declining-Balance Method (2 of 3) Computations End of Year Beginning Annual Accumulated Book Year Book Value x Rate = Expense Depreciation Value 2020 €13,000 x 40% = € 5,200 € 5,200 €7,800 (a) 2021 7,800 x 40 = 3,120 8,320 4,680 2022 4,680 x 40 = 1,872 10,192 2,808 2023 2,808 x 40 = 1,123 11,315 1,685 2024 1,685 x 40 = 685 (b) 12,000 1,000 (a) €13,000 − €5,200 (b) €1,685 x 40% = €674, expense adjusted to €685 to result in residual value of €1,000.

Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 32 Comparison of Methods (2 of 2) Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 33 Component Depreciation (1 of 2) IFRS requires component depreciation for plant assets Any significant parts of a plant asset that have significantly different estimated useful lives should be separately depreciated Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 34 Component Depreciation (2 of 2) Illustration: Lexure Construction builds an office building for HK$4,000,000, not including the cost of the land. If the HK$4,000,000 is allocated over the 40-year useful life of the building, Lexure reports HK$100,000 (HK$4,000,000 ÷ 40) of depreciation per year, assuming straight-line depreciation and no residual value. However, assume that HK$320,000 of the cost of the building relates to a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system and HK$600,000 relates to flooring. Because the HVAC system has a depreciable life of five years and the flooring has a depreciable life of 10 years, Lexure must use component depreciation. It must reclassify HK$320,000 of the cost of the building to the HVAC system and HK$600,000 to the cost of flooring. Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 35 Component Depreciation (2 of 2) Assuming that Lexure uses straight-line depreciation, the following shows the computation of component depreciation for the first year of the office building. Building cost adjusted (HK$4,000,000 − HK$320,000 − HK$600,000) HK$3,080,000 Building cost depreciation per year (HK$3,080,000 ÷ 40) HK$ 77,000 Personal HVAC system depreciation (HK$320,000 ÷ 5) 64,000 Flooring depreciation (HK$600,000 ÷ 10) 60,000 Total component depreciation in first year HK$ 201,000 Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 36 Depreciation and Income Taxes Tax laws do not require taxpayer to use the same depreciation method on the tax return that is used in preparing financial statements. Many companies use straight-line in their financial statements to maximize net income. They also use an accelerated depreciation method on their tax returns to minimize their income taxes. Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Son, Inc. 37 Revaluation of Plant Assets (1 of 5) IFRS allows companies to revalue plant assets to fair value at the reporting date Must be applied to all assets in a class of assets Assets that are experiencing rapid price changes must be revalued on an annual basis Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 38 Revaluation of Plant Assets (2 of 5) Gain Situation Illustration: Pernice Ltd. applies revaluation to equipment purchased on January 1, 2020, for HK$1,000,000. The equipment has a useful life of five years and no residual value. On December 31, 2020, Pernice makes the following journal entry to record depreciation expense, assuming straight-line depreciation. Depreciation Expense 200,000 Accumulated Depreciation—Equipment 200,000 Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 39 Revaluation of Plant Assets (3 of 5) At the end of 2020, independent appraisers determine that the asset has a fair value of HK$850,000. To report the equipment at its fair value of HK$850,000 on December 31, 2020, Pernice eliminates the Accumulated Depreciation— Equipment account, reduces Equipment to its fair value of HK$850,000, and records Revaluation Surplus of HK$50,000. The entry to record the revaluation is as follows. Accumulated Depreciation—Equipment 200,000 Equipment 150,000 Revaluation Surplus 50,000 Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 40 Revaluation of Plant Assets (4 of 5) Pernice reports Depreciation expense of HK$200,000 in the income statement HK$50,000 in other comprehensive income HK$850,000 is the new basis of the asset Assuming no change in the total useful life, depreciation in 2021 will be HK$212,500 (HK$850,000 ÷ 4). Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 41 Revaluation of Plant Assets (5 of 4) Loss Situation Illustration: Pernice’s equipment has a carrying amount of HK$800,000 (HK$1,000,000 − HK$200,000). However, at the end of 2020, independent appraisers determine that the asset has a fair value of HK$775,000, which results in an impairment loss of HK$25,000 (HK$800,000 − HK$775,000). The entry to record the equipment and report the impairment loss is as follows.

Distinguishing characteristics: Physically extracted in operations Replaceable only by an act of nature Cost is the price needed to acquire the resource and prepare it for its intended use. Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Son, Inc. 62 Depletion (1 of 3) The allocation of the cost to expense in a rational and systematic manner over the resource’s useful life. Companies generally use units-of-activity method Depletion generally is a function of the units extracted Total Cost - Residual Value Depletion Cost = Total Estimated Units Available per Unit Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Son, Inc. 63 Depletion (2 of 3) Illustration: Lane Coal Company invests HK$50 million in a mine estimated to have 10 million tons of coal and no residual value.

GAAP, like IFRS, capitalizes all direct costs in self-constructed assets such as raw materials and labor. IFRS does not address the capitalization of fixed overhead although in practice these costs are generally capitalized. GAAP also views depreciation as an allocation of cost over an asset’s useful life. GAAP permits the same depreciation methods (e.g., straight-line, accelerated, and units-of activity) as IFRS. Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Son, Inc. 90 A Look at U.S. GAAP Key Points Similarities The accounting for subsequent expenditures (such as ordinary repairs and additions) are essentially the same under IFRS and GAAP. Under both GAAP and IFRS, changes in the depreciation method used and changes in useful life are handled in current and future periods. Prior periods are not affected. GAAP recently conformed to IFRS in the accounting for changes in depreciation methods. The accounting for plant asset disposals is essentially the same under IFRS and GAAP. Initial costs to acquire natural resources are essentially the same under IFRS and GAAP. Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Son, Inc. 91 A Look at U.S. GAAP Key Points Similarities The definition of intangible assets is essentially the same under IFRS and GAAP. The accounting for exchanges of non-monetary assets has converged between IFRS and GAAP. GAAP now requires that gains on exchanges of non-monetary assets be recognized if the exchange has commercial substance. This is the same framework used in IFRS. Both IFRS and GAAP follow the historical cost principle when accounting for property, plant, and equipment at date of acquisition. Cost consists of all expenditures necessary to acquire the asset and make it ready for its intended use. Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Son, Inc. 92 A Look at U.S. GAAP Key Points Similarities Under both IFRS and GAAP, interest costs incurred during construction are capitalized. Recently, IFRS converged to GAAP requirements in this area. Differences Under GAAP, an item of property, plant, and equipment with multiple parts is generally depreciated over the useful life of the total asset. Thus, component depreciation is generally not used. However, GAAP permits companies to use component depreciation. GAAP uses the term salvage value, rather than residual value, to refer to an owner’s estimate of an asset’s value at the end of its useful life for that owner. Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Son, Inc. 93 A Look at U.S. GAAP Key Points Differences IFRS allows companies to revalue plant assets to fair value at the reporting date. As in IFRS, under GAAP the costs associated with research and development are segregated into the two components. Costs in the research phase are always expensed under both IFRS and GAAP. Under IFRS, however, costs in the development phase are capitalized as Development Costs once technological feasibility is achieved. IFRS permits revaluation of intangible assets (except for goodwill). GAAP prohibits revaluation of intangible assets. Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Son, Inc. 94 A Look at U.S. GAAP Key Points Differences IFRS requires an impairment test at each reporting date for plant assets and intangibles and records an impairment if the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell or its value-in-use. Value-in-use is the future cash flows to be derived from the particular asset, discounted to present value. Under GAAP, impairment loss is measured as the excess of the carrying amount over the asset’s fair value. Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Son, Inc. 95 A Look at U.S. GAAP Key Points Differences IFRS allows reversal of impairment losses when there has been a change in economic conditions or in the expected use of the asset. Under GAAP, impairment losses cannot be reversed for assets to be held and used; the impairment loss results in a new cost basis for the asset. IFRS and GAAP are similar in the accounting for impairments of assets held for disposal. Copyright ©2019 John Wiley & Son, Inc. 96 A Look at U.S. GAAP Looking to the Future With respect to revaluations, as part of the conceptual framework project, the Boards will examine the measurement bases used in accounting. It is too early to say whether a converged conceptual framework will recommend fair value measurement (and revaluation accounting) for plant assets and intangibles. However, this is likely to be one of the more contentious issues, given the long-standing use of historical cost as a measurement basis in GAAP. The IASB and FASB have identified a project that would consider expanded recognition of internally generated intangible assets. IFRS permits more recognition of intangibles compared to GAAP. Thus, it will be challenging to develop converged standards for intangible assets, given the long-standing prohibition on capitalizing internally generated intangible assets and research and development costs in GAAP.
