  2. Costs to Capitalize Depreciation Asset Sale or Impairment Disclosure Ratios Property, Plant and Equipment

  3. General Rule: Capitalize (add to an asset account) the costs to acquire the asset and to prepare it for its intended use. Note: for all acquisitions, part of the cost is the purchase price, specifically the “cash equivalent” purchase price (the amount we would pay if we paid cash). This excludes any cost of financing the purchase (interest expense). 1. What Costs to Capitalize?

  4. Land purchase price, clearing costs, survey costs, back taxes, closing costs, some landscaping (if permanent in nature). Land improvements purchase price, for some landscaping (temporary), parking lots, sidewalks, etc. 1. What Costs to Capitalize?

  5. Machinery and equipment purchase price, freight, installation, assembly, trial runs, testing and inspection during set up. Buildings purchase price (or cost to construct), closing costs, attorney’s fees, building permits, etc. 1. What Costs to Capitalize?

  6. Self-constructed assets include cost of materials, labor, and overhead. may also include interest costduring construction. The interest costs are calculated under specific rules, based on the length of time of the construction period, and the borrowing rates of the company. 1. What Costs to Capitalize

  7. Depreciation is a method of cost allocation. it is used to allocate the capitalized cost of PP&E over the years benefited (matching) Note: depreciation will decrease the carrying value of the asset, but it is not a valuation technique (i.e., book value is not market value) Journal entry: Depreciation Expense xx Accumulated Depr. xx Book value = Cost - A/D (accum. depr.) 2. Depreciation

  8. Depreciation methods (1) Activity (units-of-production) (2) Straight-line (3) Double-declining balance (4) MACRS (income tax depreciation) 2. Depreciation

  9. Given the following information regarding an automobile purchased by the company on January 2, 2005: Cost to acquire = $10,000 Estimated life = 4 years Estimated miles = 100,000 miles Salvage value = $2,000 Calculate depreciation expense for the first two years under each of the following methods. Class Example

  10. Assume that the car was driven 20,000 miles in the year 2005, and 30,000 miles in 2006. Annual depreciation = Cost - Salvage Value x Current Activity Total expected activity For 2005= 10,000 - 2,000 x 20,000 = $1,600 100,000 miles For 2006 = 10,000 - 2,000 x 30,000 = $2,400 100,000 miles (1) Units-of-production (Activity)

  11. Annual depreciation = Cost - Salvage Estimated Life = 10,000 - 2,000 = $2,000per year 4 years (2) Straight-Line

  12. DDB is an accelerated depreciation technique. It generates more expense in the early years and less in the later years. Annual depreciation = % (Cost - A/D) where A/D is the accumulated depreciation for all prior years, and the percentage is double the straight line rate, or 2 x 1/Estimate life. In the example, the % = 2 x 1/4 = 2/4 = 50%. Depreciation expense (D.E.)for: 2005 = 50% x (10,000 - 0) = $5,000 2006 = 50% x(10,000-5,000) = $2,500 (3) Double Declining Balance

  13. MACRS (modified accelerated cost recovery system) is a technique developed by the IRS for tax reporting. It utilizes combinations of DDB, 150%DB, and SL to calculate a table of percentages that can be applied to any depreciable asset. Additionally, the IRS assumes no salvage value, and a half year in the first and last year of depreciation (some limitations on fourth quarter purchases). Partial table on the next slide. (4) MACRS

  15. Because depreciation is an estimate, and two of the three components are subject to variability, sometimes we need to make a change in estimate (either in the estimated life or the estimated salvage). The change in estimate affects only the current and future years; we do not go back and change the previous years that have already been posted. Depreciation - change in estimate

  16. Retirement - remove the asset and related A/D. If not fully depreciated, recognize loss. Sale - remove the asset and related A/D, then recognize cash received. The difference is a gain or loss. 3. Disposal: Retirement or Sale

  17. Using earlier example (cost = $10,000, salvage = $2,000). After 4 years straight-line, $8,000 would be in A/D. 1. Assume the asset is retired (no cash received) Loss on retirement 2,000 Accumulated Depr. 8,000 Automobiles 10,000 2. Assume the asset is sold for $3,000: Cash 3,000 Accumulated Depr. 8,000 Automobiles 10,000 Gain on sale 1,000 3. Disposal - continued

  18. PPE are recorded at cost, less A/D, and are not increased in value, even if market value indicates an increase. However, if the fair value of the asset is deemed to be below its book value, the asset is impaired and must be written down to fair value (conservatism); the loss is recognized in the period of impairment. Journal entry (text uses Asset Impairment Expense; either account is located in “other expenses and losses” below income from operations): Loss on asset impairment xx Asset xx 3. Asset Impairment

  19. The balance sheet is very limited in the presentation of PPE, usually one line of information, net of Accum. Depr. The footnotes show more information. “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”, usually the first footnote in most financials, includes a general discussion of depreciation methods and average life of assets. Other footnotes may have more detailed schedules of asset categories, and original cost. 4. Disclosure

  20. PPE Turnover = Sales Average PPE, net Indicates utilization of PPE; higher ratio is preferable, indicting lower required capital investment for a given level of sales. Percent Used Up = Accumulated Depr. Depreciable Asset Cost Indicates age of asset group. High percentage indicates need for replacement, and probable future capital expenditures (lower percentage is better). 5. Ratios
