Smith Corporation has a building which is being reclassifed from PPE to an investment. The building is now required to be valued at fair value as of the balance sheet date. Smith originally paid $375,000 for the building and the current carrying value is $350,000. External valuations have determined that the building's fair value should be $360,000. Smith's CEO has argued Smith Corporation would never sell the building for less than $425,000. What is the correct fair value and why?
Question 10 options:
a)
$350,000 because that is the carrying value of the building
b)
$425,000 because that is the minimum sales price Smith would accept
c)
$360,000 because that is the perspective of the market
d)
$375,000 because that is the entrance price
Dungan Corporation is evaluating a proposal to purchase a new drill press to replace a less efficient machine presently in use. The cost of the new equipment at time 0, including delivery and installation, is $260,000. If it is purchased, Dungan will incur costs of $7,400 to remove the present equipment and revamp its facilities. This $7,400 is tax deductible at time 0.
Depreciation for tax purposes will be allowed as follows: year 1, $64,000; year 2, $94,000; and in each of years 3 through 5, $54,000 per year. The existing equipment has a book and tax value of $124,000 and a remaining useful life of 10 years. However, the existing equipment can be sold for only $64,000 and is being depreciated for book and tax purposes using the straight-line method over its actual life.

- #9 Issue: Linda Tristan, assistant controller for Ag-Growth, Inc., a biotechnology firm, has concerns about the accounting analysis for the firm’s purchase of a land site and building from Hylite Corporation. The price for this package purchase was $1,800,000 cash. A memorandum from the controller, Greg Fister, stated that the journal entry for this purchase should debit Land for $1,350,000, debit Building for $450,000, and credit Cash for $1,800,000. The building, a used laboratory facility, is to be depreciated over 10 years with a zero salvage value. The source documents supporting the transaction include two appraisals of the property, one done for Ag-Growth and one done for Hylite Corporation. The appraisal for Ag-Growth valued the land at $1,000,000 and the building at $500,000. The appraisal for Hylite Corporation (done by a different appraiser) valued the land at $1,500,000 and the building at $750,000.

The patent’s purchase price is $720,000 and the legal protection it provides will last for five more years; there is no salvage value. However, after preparing the capital expenditure analysis below, New Haven’s treasurer has recommended to the company’s capital budgeting committee that the investment be rejected. Brad Decker, chairperson of the capital budgeting committee, finds it difficult to accept the treasurer’s analysis because he “feels intuitively” that the investment is attractive.

- Intermediate Accounting: BORROWING COSTS Requirements: What amount of borrowing cost should be capitalized as cost of the asset upon completion? Ultimate Company, a socially responsible multinational entity, decided to construct a tunnel that will link two sides of the village that were separated by a natural disaster years ago. Realizing its role as a good corporate citizen, the entity has been in this village a couple of years exploring oil gas in the nearby offshore area. The tunnel would take two years to build and total capital outlay needed for the construction would not be less than P20,000,000. To allow itself a margin of safety, the entity borrowed P25,000,000 from these sources and used the extra P5,000,000 for working capital purposes.

- Question 1 The TLC Yogurt Company has decided to capitalize on the exercise fad and plans to open an exercise facility in conjunction with its main yogurt and health foods store. To get the project under way, the company will rent additional space adjacent to its current store. The equipment required for the facility will cost $50,000. Shipping and installation charges for the equipment are expected to total $5,000. This equipment will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over its five-year economic life to an estimated salvage value of $0. In order to open the exercise facility, TLC estimates that it will have to add about $7,000 initially to its net working capital in the form of additional inventories of exercise supplies, cash, and accounts receivable for its exercise customers.

The company owns the building that would be used, and it could sell it for $100,000 after taxes if it decides not to open the new office. Under the new tax law, the equipment used in the project is eligible for 100% bonus depreciation, so it will be fully depreciated at t = 0. At the end of the project’s life, the equipment would have zero salvage value. No change in net operating working capital (NOWC) would be required for the project. Revenues and operating costs would be constant over the project's 3-year life. What is the project's NPV? (Hint: Cash flows are constant in Years 1-3.)
