Allocation
Depreciation is the accounting process of allocating
the cost of tangible assets to expense in a systematic
and rational manner to those periods expected to
benefit from the use of the asset.
Allocating costs of long-term assets:
Fixed assets = Depreciation expense
Intangibles = Amortization expense
Natural resources = Depletion expense

(2) What is the assets useful life?
(3) What method of cost allocation is best?

Factors Involved in the Depreciation Process
Estimation of Service Lifes
Service life of an asset often differs from its
physical life.
Companies retire assets for two reasons:
physical factors (such as casualty or
expiration of physical life) and
economic factors (obsolescence).

E11-5 (Depreciation ComputationsFour Methods): KC
Corporation purchased a new machine for its assembly process on
August 1, 2010. The cost of this machine was $150,000. The
company estimated that the machine would have a salvage value of
$24,000 at the end of its service life. Its life is estimated
at 5 years and its working hours are estimated at 21,000 hours.
Year-end is December 31.
Instructions: Compute the depreciation expense under the
following methods.
(a) Straight-line depreciation.
(c) Sum-of-the-years-digits.

Special Depreciation Methods
The choice of method depends on the nature of the
assets involved:
Group method used when the assets are similar in
nature and have approximately the same useful lives.
Composite approach used when the assets are
dissimilar and have different lives.
Companies are also free to develop tailor-made
depreciation methods, provided the method results in
the allocation of an assets cost in a systematic and
rational manner (Hybrid or Combination Methods).

Example
Arcadia HS, purchased equipment for $510,000 which
was estimated to have a useful life of 10 years with a
salvage value of $10,000 at the end of that time.
Depreciation has been recorded for 7 years on a
straight-line basis. In 2010 (year 8), it is determined
that the total estimated life should be 15 years with a
salvage value of $5,000 at the end of that time.
Questions:
What is the journal entry to correct

Calculate the depreciation expense
for 2010.

Impairments
Impairments
When the carrying amount of an asset is not
recoverable, a company records a write-off referred
to as an impairment.
Events leading to an impairment:
a.
Chapter
11-27
Impairments
Impairments
Measuring Impairments
1. Review events for possible impairment.
2. If the review indicates impairment, apply the
recoverability test. If the sum of the expected future
net cash flows from the long-lived asset is less than the
carrying amount of the asset, an impairment has
occurred.
3. Assuming an impairment, the impairment loss is the
amount by which the carrying amount of the asset
exceeds the fair value of the asset. The fair value is
the market value or the present value of expected
future net cash flows.

E11-16 (Impairment): Presented below is information related to
equipment owned by Pujols Company at December 31, 2010. Assume
that Pujols will continue to use this asset in the future. As of
December 31, 2010, the equipment has a remaining useful life of 4
years.
Instructions:
(a) Prepare the journal entry (if any) to record the impairment of the
asset at December 31, 2010.
(b) Prepare the journal entry to record depreciation expense for 2011.
(c) The fair value of the equipment at December 31, 2011, is $5,100,000.
Prepare the journal entry (if any) necessary to record this increase in
fair value.

Depletion
Depletion
Natural resources, often called wasting assets,
include petroleum, minerals, and timber.
They have two main features:
1. complete removal (consumption) of the asset, and
2. replacement of the asset only by an act of nature.
Depletion is the process of allocating the cost of
natural resources.
Chapter

Establishing a Depletion Base
Computation of the depletion base involves four factors:
(1) Acquisition cost of the deposit,
(2) Exploration costs,
(3) Development costs, and
(4) Restoration costs.

Depletion
Depletion
Write-off of Resource Cost
Normally, companies compute depletion on a units-ofproduction method (an activity approach). Thus,
depletion is a function of the number of units extracted
during the period.

E11-19 (Depletion ComputationsTimber): Hernandez Timber
Company owns 9,000 acres of timberland purchased in 1999 at a
cost of $1,400 per acre. At the time of purchase the land without
the timber was valued at $400 per acre. In 2000, Hernandez built
fire lanes and roads, with a life of 30 years, at a cost of $87,000.
Every year Hernandez sprays to prevent disease at a cost of
$3,000 per year and spends $7,000 to maintain the fire lanes and
roads. During 2001, Hernandez selectively logged and sold 700,000
board feet of timber, of the estimated 3,000,000 board feet. In
2002, Hernandez planted new seedlings to replace the trees cut at
a cost of $100,000.
Instructions:
Determine the depreciation expense and the cost of timber sold
related to depletion for 2001.

Under both iGAAP and U.S. GAAP, interest costs incurred during
construction must be capitalized.
iGAAP, like U.S. GAAP, capitalizes all direct costs in selfconstructed assets.
Chapter
11-48
iGAAP also uses a fair value test to measure the impairment loss.
However, iGAAP does not use the first-stage recoverability test
used under U.S. GAAPcomparing the undiscounted cash flows to
the carrying amount. Thus, the iGAAP test is more strict than U.S.
GAAP.
