CHAPTER 9
PLANT ASSETS, NATURAL RESOURCES, AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Cost of Plant Assets
Example 1: On March 1, 2021, Westmorlan Company acquired real estate on which it planned to construct a
small office building. The company paid $75,000 in cash. An old warehouse on the property was razed at a cost of
$8,600; the salvaged materials were sold for $1,700. Additional expenditures before construction began included
$1,100 attorney's fee for work concerning the land purchase, $5,000 real estate broker's fee, $7,800 architect's fee,
and $14,000 to put in driveways and a parking lot. What is the cost of the land?
Example 2: Lofton Company purchased a delivery truck. The total cash payment was $27,900, including the following items.
Negotiated purchase price
$24,000
Installation of special shelving
1,100
Painting and lettering
900
Motor vehicle license

What is the cost of truck? Prepare the journal entry to record the purchase. 1
Depreciation
Three methods of recognizing depreciation are (a) straight-line, (b) units-of-activity, and (c) declining-balance.
Straight-Line Method
The formula for computing annual depreciation expense is:
(Cost-Salvage Value) ÷ Useful Life (in years) = Depreciation Expense
Example 3: Benson Company purchased a delivery truck for $11,000 on January 1 with an estimated salvage value
of $1,000 at the end of its four-year service life. Calculate the annual depreciation.
Annual depreciation is $2,500 [($11,000 – $1,000 ÷ 4)].
Units-of-Activity Method
The formulas for computing depreciation expense are:
Depreciable Cost ÷ Total Units of Activity = Depreciable Cost per Unit
Depreciable Cost per Unit X Units of Activity during the Year = Depreciation Expense
Example 4: Yello Bus Lines uses the units-of-activity method in depreciating its buses. One bus was purchased on
January 1, 2022, at a cost of $148,000. Over its 4-year useful life, the bus is expected to be driven 100,000 miles.
Salvage value is expected to be $8,000. Prepare a depreciation schedule assuming actual mileage was: 2022, 26,000; 2023, 32,000; 2024, 25,000; and 2025, 17,000.
Declining-Balance Method
The formula for computing depreciation expense is:
Book Value at Beginning of Year X Declining-Balance Rate = Depreciation Expense
Book Value at Beginning of Year × ( 2/useful life in years) = Depreciation Expense
Book Value at Beginning of Year – Salvage Value =Last Year Depreciation Expense
Example 5: Corales Company acquires a delivery truck at a cost of $38,000. The truck is expected to have a
salvage value of $2,000 at the end of its 4-year useful life. Assuming the declining-balance depreciation rate is
double the straight-line rate, compute annual depreciation for the first and second years under the declining-
balance method.
2
Example 6: Rottino Company purchased a new machine on October 1, 2021, at a cost of $150,000. The company estimated that the machine will have a salvage value of $12,000. The machine is expected to be used for 10,000 working hours during its 5-year life.
Compute the depreciation expense under the following methods for the year indicated.
(a) Straight-line for 2021.
(b) Units-of-activity for 2021, assuming machine usage was 1,700 hours.
(c) Declining-balance using double the straight-line rate for 2021 and 2022.
Example 7: Linton Company purchased a delivery truck for $34,000 on January 1, 2021. The truck has an expected salvage value of $2,000, and is expected to be driven 100,000 miles over its estimated useful life of 8 years. Actual miles driven were 15,000 in 2021 and 12,000 in 2022.
Instructions:
(a) Compute depreciation expense for 2021 and 2022 using (1) the straight-line method, (2) the units-of-
activity method, and (3) the double-declining-balance method.
(b) Assume that Linton uses the straight-line method.
1. Prepare the journal entry to record 2021 depreciation. 2. Show how the truck would be reported in the December 31, 2021, balance sheet.
