Allocating costs of long-lived assets: ¢@ Fixed assets = Depreciation expense @ Intangibles = Amortization expense @ Mineral resources = Depletion expense 14 Lot Depreciation—Method of Cost Allocation Factors Involved in the Depreciation Process Three basic questions: 1. What depreciable base is to be used? 2. Whatis the asset's useful life? 3. What method of cost apportionment is best? 15 Lot Factors Involved in Depreciation Process Depreciable Base for the Asset Original cost €10,000 Less: Residual value 1,000 Depreciation base € 9,000 ILLUSTRATION 11.1 Computation of Depreciation Base 11-6 Lot Factors Involved in Depreciation Process Estimation of Service Lives @ Service life often differs from physical life. ¢ Companies retire assets for two reasons: 1. Physical factors (casualty or expiration of physical life). 2. Economic factors (inadequacy, supersession, and obsolescence). "7 Lot 18 Depreciation—Method of Cost Allocation Methods of Depreciation The profession requires the method employed be “systematic and rational.” Methods used include: 1. Activity method (units of use or production). 2. Straight-line method. 3. Diminishing (accelerated)-charge methods: a. Sum-of-the-years’-digits. b. Declining-balance method.

On an annual basis, companies review the asset for indicators of impairments—that is, a decline in the asset's cash-generating ability through use or sale. Lo3 1-31 Recognizing Impairments If impairment indicators are present, then an impairment test must be conducted. Recoverable Amount ILLUSTRATION 11.15 Impairment Test Lo3 1-32 Recognizing Impairments Example: Assume that Cruz SA performs an impairment test for its equipment. The carrying amount of Cruz’s equipment is €200,000, its fair value less costs to sell is €180,000, and its value-in-use is €205,000.

The equipment has a total useful life of four years with a residual value of VND2,000,000. The following information relates to this equipment. 1. The equipment’s carrying amount at December 31, 2020, is VND14,000,000 (VND26,000,000 - VND12,000,000). 2. Hanoi uses straight-line depreciation. Hanoi’s depreciation was VND6,000,000 [(VND26,000,000 - VND2,000,000) + 4] for 2020 and is recorded. 3. Hanoi has determined that the recoverable amount for this asset at December 31, 2020, is VND11,000,000. 4. The remaining useful life of the equipment after December 31, 2020, is two years. 11-35 Lo3 Impairment Illustrations Case 1: Hanoi records the impairment on its equipment at December 31, 2020, as follows.

However, the estimated residual value of the equipment is now zero. Hanoi continues to use straight-line depreciation and makes the following journal entry to record depreciation for 2021. Depreciation Expense 5,500,000 Accumulated Depreciation—Equipment 5,500,000 Lo3 Impairment Illustrations Case 2 At the end of 2019, Verma Company tests a machine for impairment. The machine has a carrying amount of $200,000. It has an estimated remaining useful life of five years. Because there is little market-related information on which to base a recoverable amount based on fair value, Verma determines the machine’s recoverable amount should be based on value-in-use. Verma uses a discount rate of 8 percent. Verma’s analysis indicates that its future cash flows will be $40,000 each year for five years, and it will receive a residual value of $10,000 at the end of the five years. It is assumed that all cash flows occur at the end of the year.

Biological assets (timberlands) » Fair value approach (chapter 9) 2. Mineral resources (oil, gas, and mineral mining). » Complete removal (consumption) of the asset. » Replacement of the asset only by an act of nature. Depletion - process of allocating the cost of mineral resources. 11-46 Lo4 Depletion Establishing a Depletion Base Computation of the depletion base involves: 1. Pre-exploratory costs. 2. Exploratory and evaluation costs. 3. Development costs. 11-47 Lo4 Depletion Write-off of Resource Cost Normally, companies compute depletion on a units-of- production method (activity approach). Depletion is a function of the number of units extracted during the period. Calculation: Total Cost — Residual value Total Estimated Units Available Depletion Cost Per Unit Units Extracted x Cost Per Unit Depletion 11-48 Lo4 Depletion Illustration: MaClede SA acquired the right to use 1,000 acres of land in South Africa to mine for silver. The lease cost is €50,000, and the related exploration costs on the property are €100,000. Intangible development costs incurred in opening the mine are €850,000.

Illustration: Callahan Mining had a retained earnings balance of £1,650,000, accumulated depletion on mineral properties of £2,100,000, and share premium of £5,435,493. Callahan's board declared a dividend of £3 a share on the 1,000,000 shares outstanding. It records the £3,000,000 cash dividend as follows. Retained Earnings 1,650,000 Share Premium—Ordinary 1,350,000 Cash 3,000,000 Lo4 Depletion Presentation on the Financial Statements Disclosures related to E&E expenditures should include: 1. Accounting policies for exploration and evaluation expenditures, including the recognition of E&E assets. 2. Amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expense, and operating cash flow arising from the exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources. 11-53 Lo4 LEARNING OBJECTIVE 5 Revaluations Apply the accounting for 1-54 revaluations. Recognizing Revaluations Companies may value long-lived tangible asset subsequent to acquisition at cost or fair value. Network Rail (GBR) elected to use fair values to account for its railroad network. » Increased long-lived tangible assets by £4,289 million. » Change in the fair value accounted for by adjusting the asset account and establishing an unrealized gain. » Unrealized gain is often referred to as revaluation surplus.

The general rules for revaluation accounting are as follows. 1. Whena company revalues its long-lived tangible assets above historical cost, it reports an unrealized gain that increases other comprehensive income. 2.

Major differences relate to use of component depreciation, impairments, and revaluations. 11-91 Los D ‘ GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS Relevant Facts Following are the key similarities and differences between U.S. GAAP and IFRS related to property, plant, and equipment. Similarities + The definition of property, plant, and equipment is essentially the same under U.S. GAAP and IFRS. + Under both U.S. GAAP and IFRS, changes in depreciation method and changes in useful life are treated in the current and future periods. Prior periods are not affected. + The accounting for plant asset disposals is the same under U.S. GAAP and IFRS. 11-92 Los 0 * GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS Relevant Facts Similarities + The accounting for the initial costs to acquire natural resources is similar under U.S. GAAP and IFRS. + Under both U.S. GAAP and IFRS, interest costs incurred during construction must be capitalized. Recently, IFRS converged to U.S. GAAP. + The accounting for exchanges of non-monetary assets is essentially the same between U.S. GAAP and IFRS. U.S. GAAP requires that gains on exchanges of non-monetary assets be recognized if the exchange has commercial substance. This is the same framework used in IFRS. + U.S. GAAP and IFRS both view depreciation as allocation of cost over an asset's life. US. GAAP and IFRS permit the same depreciation methods (straight-line, diminishing-balance, units-of-production), 11-93 Los D * GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS Relevant Facts Differences + Under U.S. GAAP, component depreciation is permitted but is rarely used. IFRS requires component depreciation. + U.S. GAAP does not permit revaluations of property, plant, equipment, and mineral resources. Under IFRS, companies can use either the historical cost model or the revaluation model. In testing for impairments of long-lived assets, U.S. GAAP uses a different model than IFRS. Under U.S. GAAP, as long as future undiscounted cash flows exceed the carrying amount of the asset, no impairment is recorded. The IFRS impairment test is stricter. However, unlike U.S. GAAP, reversals of impairmentlosses are permitted under IFRS. 11-94 Los NV GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS Relevant Facts Differences + Under U.S. GAAP, all losses on non-monetary asset exchanges are recognized immediately. 11-95 Los D ' GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS About The Numbers As indicated, impairment testing under U.S. GAAP is a two-step process. Illustration 11.18, in the text, summarizes impairment measurement under U.S. GAAP. The key distinctions relative to IFRS relate to the use of a cash flow recovery test to determine if an impairment test should be performed. Also, U.S. GAAP does not permit reversal of impairment losses for assets held for use. 11-96 Los D ' GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS On the Horizon With respect to revaluations, as part of the conceptual framework project, the Boards will examine the measurement bases used in accounting. It is too early to say whether a converged conceptual framework will recommend fair value measurement (and revaluation accounting) for property, plant, and equipment. However, this is likely to be one of the more contentious issues, given the long-standing use of historical cost as a measurement basis in U.S. GAAP. 11-97 Los 11-98 Copyright Copyright © 2018 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
