INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING (ACCT 3200B)
- The Minister of Finance is reviewing the depreciation regulations. Currently the Canadian Income Tax Act requires that intangible assets, such as franchises, patents and copyrights, be depreciated on a straight-line basis. The maximum annual deprecation charge is calculated by fully depreciating the intangible asset over seven years. The Minister is considering changing this to be consistent with all other assets and simply having a CCA class for intangible assets with a CCA rate of 75%. The Minister has asked you to determine the effect that this change would have on a start-up engineering company with a valuable patent. Consider a patent that cost $700 000 to establish. As with many start-up engineering companies, assume that the new company will not be profitable in the first year but expect profitability thereafter. Given that the start-up company has an income tax rate of 30% and an after-tax cost of capital of 15%, what is the after-tax cost of this patent under both approaches?…arrow_forwardTurnip Company purchased an asset at a cost of 10,000 with a 10-year life during the current year. Turnip uses differing depreciation methods for financial reporting and income tax purposes. The depreciation expense during the current year for financial reporting is 1,000 and for income tax purposes is 2,000. Turnip is subject to a 30% enacted future tax rate. Prepare a schedule to compute Turnips (a) ending future taxable amount, (b) ending deferred tax liability, and (c) change in deferred tax liability (deferred tax expense) for the current year.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements with respect to the depreciation of property under MACRS is incorrect? Under the half-year convention, one-half year of depreciation is allowed in the year the property is placed in service. If a taxpayer elects to use the straight-line method of depreciation for property in the 5 -year class, all other 5 -year class property acquired during the year must also be depreciated using the straight-line method. In some cases, when a taxpayer places a significant amount of property in service during the last quarter of the year, real property must be depreciated using a mid-quarter convention. Real property acquired after 1986 must be depreciated using the straight-line method. The cost of property to which the MACRS rate is applied is not reduced for estimated salvage value.arrow_forward
- Prepare a depreciation schedule to be used for tax purposes for a $110,000 railroad spur (track) using the 200% declining-balance method and the midquarter convention. The equipment was placed in service during the second quarter of the company’s tax year. Ignore any special depreciation allowances. (Recovery period = 7 years)arrow_forwardAn asset, with a useful life of 10 years, wasacquired at the beginning of year 1 at a cost of $60 000. The asset is revalued at the beginning ofyear 4 in terms of the entitys revaluation policyto gross replacement cost of $ 80 000 at this date.Assume that depreciation calculated foraccounting purposes on the straight-line methodaccurately reflects economic obsolescence. What is the revaluation amount?arrow_forwardQuantum Electronic Services paid P = $40,000 for its networked computer system. Both tax and book depreciation accounts are maintained. The annual tax depreciation rate is based on the previous year’s book value (BV), while the book depreciation rate is based on the original first cost (P). Use the rates listed to plot annual depreciation and book values for each method. Develop the graphs using hand calculations or a spreadsheet, as directed by your instructor.arrow_forward
- On August 3, Franko Construction purchased special - purpose equipment at a cost of $8, 900, 000. The useful life of the equipment was estimated to be eight years, with an estimated residual value of $20,000. Required: Compute the depreciation expense to be recognized each calendar year for financial reporting purposes under the straight - line depreciation method (half- year convention). Compute the depreciation expense to be recognized each calendar year for financial reporting purposes under the 200 percent declining - balance method (half-year convention) with a switch to straight line when it will maximize depreciation expense. Which of these two depreciation methods (straight line or double - declining - balance) results in the highest net income for financial reporting purposes during the first two years of the equipment's use?arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements are TRUE? a. MACRS-GDS uses a half-year convention, whereas MACRS-ADS does not. b. The half-year convention has the effect of depreciating over n − 1 full years (2, 3, . . . , n), and two half-years (1 and n + 1). c. The investment’s property class establishes the number of years over which the cost basis is to be recovered (depreciated). d. In general, MACRS-GDS has a longer recovery period (depreciation period) than MACRS-ADS.arrow_forwardWant Answer please providearrow_forward
- On January 1, Year 1, the Dole Company purchased an asset that cost $154,000. The asset had an expected useful life of seven years and no estimated residual value. The company initially decided to use sum-of-the-years'-digits (SYD) depreciation for both financial accounting and income tax purposes. Depreciation expense for the straight-line method and the sum-of-the-years'-digits method is as follows: Year Straight-line over 7 Years SYD over 7 Years Difference 1 $22,000 $38,500 $16,500 2 22,000 33,000 11,000 3 22,000 27,500 5,500 4 22,000 22,000 0 5 22,000 16,500 (5,500) 6 22,000 11,000 (11,000) 7 22,000 5,500 (16,500) $154,000 $154,000 $0 At the beginning of Year 4, Dole changed from the sum-of-the-years'-digits method to the straight-line method of depreciation for financial reporting purposes. The company's income tax rate is 30%. In Year 3 and Year 4, Dole had $90,000 pretax income before depreciation and income taxes. Required: a.
