On 1 July 2015 a plant is acquired at a cost of $6 million. The asset is to be depreciated using the straight-line method on the basis of an estimated useful life of 15 years and a negligible residual value. On 30 June 2018 it is determined that the asset has a value in use of $4 million and a fair value of $3.6 million before costs of disposal of $50 000. The remaining useful life of the asset is reassessed to be 8 years. The appropriate impairment loss journal entry on 30 June 2018 would be: Oa. Dr Impairment Loss 800 000 CR Accum. deprec. & impairment losses 800 000 Ob. Dr Impairment Loss 1 200 000 CR Accum. deprec. & 1200 000 impairment losses Oc. Dr Impairment Loss 400 000 CR Accum, deprec. & 400 000 impairment losses O d. there is no impairment loss

The following intangible assets were purchased by Hanna Unlimited: A. A patent with a remaining legal life of twelve years is bought, and Hanna expects to be able to use it for six years. It is purchased at a cost of $48,000. B. A copyright with a remaining life of thirty years is purchased, and Hanna expects to be able to use it for ten years. It is purchased for $70,000. Determine the annual amortization amount for each intangible asset.
Kam Company purchased a machine on January 2, 2019, for 20,000. The machine had an expected life of 8 years and a residual value of 300. The double-declining-balance method of depreciation is used. Required: 1. Compute the depreciation expense for each year of the assets life and book value at the end of each year. 2. Assuming that the company has a policy of always changing to the straight-line method at the midpoint of the assets life, compute the depreciation expense for each year of the assets life. 3. Assuming that the company always changes to the straight-line method at the beginning of the year when the annual straight-line amount exceeds the double-declining-balance amount, compute the depreciation expense for each year of the assets life.
On July 1, 2018, Mundo Corporation purchased factory equipment for 50,000. Residual value was estimated at 2,000. The equipment will be depreciated over 10 years using the double-declining balance method. Counting the year of acquisition as one-half year, Mundo should record 2019 depredation expense of: a. 7,680 b. 9,000 c. 9,600 d. 10,000
On May 10, 2019, Horan Company purchased equipment for 25,000. The equipment has an estimated service life of 5 years and zero residual value. Assume that the straight-line depreciation method is used. Required: Compute the depreciation expense for 2019 for each of the following four alternatives: 1. Horan computes depreciation expense to the nearest day. (Use 12 months of 30 days each and round the daily depreciation rate to 2 decimal places.) 2. Horan computes depreciation expense to the nearest month. Assets purchased in the first half of the month are considered owned for the whole month. 3. Horan computes depreciation expense to the nearest whole year. Assets purchased in the first half of the year are considered owned for the whole year. 4. Horan records one-half years depreciation expense on all assets purchased during the year.
Comprehensive: Acquisition, Subsequent Expenditures, and Depreciation On January 2, 2019, Lapar Corporation purchased a machine for 50,000. Lapar paid shipping expenses of 500, as well as installation costs of 1,200. The company estimated that the machine would have a useful life of 10 years and a residual value of 3,000. On January 1, 2020, Lapar made additions costing 3,600 to the machine in order to comply with pollution-control ordinances. These additions neither prolonged the life of the machine nor increased the residual value. Required: 1. If Lapar records depreciation expense under the straight-line method, how much is the depreciation expense for 2020? 2. Assume Lapar determines the machine has three significant components as shown below. If Lapar uses IFRS, what is the amount of depreciation expense that would be recorded?
Chapman Inc. purchased a piece of equipment in 2018. Chapman depreciated the equipment on a straight-line basis over a useful life of 10 years and used a residual value of $12,000. Chapmans depreciation expense for 2019 was $11,000. What was the original cost of the building? a. $98,000 b. $110,000 c. $122,000 d. $134,000
