3. 3 Acquisition of Property, Plant, and Equipment Determination of Cost Devon Company purchases a machine with a contract price of $100,000 on terms of 2/10, n/30. The company does not take the cash discount and incurs transportation costs of $2,500, as well as installation and testing costs of $3,000. Sales tax is $7,000 on the purchase. During installation, uninsured damages of $500 are incurred. What is the cost of the machine?

10. 10 Lump-Sum Purchase Under the lump-sum purchase method, the value of each asset is based on the proportion of its market value to the total market value of the group of assets being purchased. Acquisition of Property, Plant, and Equipment

11. 11 A company pays $120,000 for land and a building. The land and building are appraised at $50,000 and $75,000, respectively. Appraisal Relative Fair Total Allocated Value Value × Cost = Cost Land$ 50,000 $50,000/$125,000 × $120,000 = $ 48,000 Building 75,000 $75,000/$125,000 × $120,000 = 72,000 Total$125,000$120,000 Acquisition of Property, Plant, and Equipment

16. 16 Start-up Costs GAAP requires that a company expense the costs of start-up activities as incurred. Start-up costs are costs related to one-time activities for opening a new facility, introducing a new product, etc.

17. 17 The general principle is that the cost of a nonmonetary asset acquired in exchange for another nonmonetary asset is the fair value of the asset surrendered. Nonmonetary Asset Exchanges

27. 27 Exceptions to the General Rule 1.Neither the fair value of the asset received or given up is reasonably determinable. 2.The transaction is an exchange of inventory to facilitate sales to a third party; for example, when a company exchanges its inventory with another company in order to sell the newly acquired inventory to a third company. A company would not recognize a gain or loss when: ContinuedContinued

28. 28 Exceptions to the General Rule 3.The transaction lacks “commercial substance.” A nonmonetary exchange does not have commercial substance if the company’s future cash flows are not expected to change significantly. Messenger Company exchanged a used truck and $2,000 cash for another used truck. Truck32,000 Accumulated Depreciation20,000 Truck50,000 Cash 2,000

29. 29 The cost of materials, labor, and overhead used in the self-construction of property, plant, and equipment intended for a firm’s production process are added to the cost of the asset. Self-Construction

30. 30 Capitalization of Interest A company is required to capitalize interest on assets that are either constructed for its own use or constructed as discrete products for sale or lease to others.

31. 31 Capitalization of Interest—Qualifying Assets  Must be built for the company’s own use, or be constructed as discrete projects for sale or lease to others.  Qualifying expenditures were made.  The amount to be capitalized is the actual interest incurred, not imputed.  Activities that are necessary to get the asset ready for its intended use are in progress.

32. 32 Interest cannot be capitalized for the following types of assets: 1.Inventories that are routinely manufactured. 2.Assets that are in use or ready for their intended use. 3.Assets that are not being used in the earning activities of the company and are not undergoing the activities necessary to get them ready for use. Capitalization of Interest

33. 33 There are three alternatives for a company to include fixed overhead costs in the cost of a self- constructed asset. 1.Allocate a portion of total fixed overhead to the self-constructed asset. 2.Include only incremental fixed overhead in the cost of the self-constructed asset. 3.Include no fixed overhead in the cost of the self-constructed asset. Fixed Overhead Costs

34. 34 Costs Subsequent to Acquisition  Extending the life of the asset  Improving productivity  Producing the same product at lower cost  Increasing the quality of the product  Extending the life of the asset  Improving productivity  Producing the same product at lower cost  Increasing the quality of the product The future economic benefits of a productive asset or product can be increased by:

35. 35 The cost of an addition represents a new asset and therefore is capitalized. Additions

36. 36 Rearrangement and Moving  The costs of rearranging the facilities within a building or moving them to a new location are capitalized and expensed over the period expected to benefit.  Many companies expense such costs immediately, which is an acceptable procedure if the difference is immaterial.

37. 37 Repairs and Maintenance  Routine repair and maintenance costs should be expensed in the period incurred.  If incurred unevenly during the year, the amount of repair costs in each interim period may be averaged by using an allowance account.

38. 38 Asset Retirement Obligations  The acquisition of some assets automatically creates a legal obligation related to the retirement of the asset. –Power plants –Mines –Industrial manufacturing sites  The usual method of measuring the fair value is the present value of the future cash flows that will be paid by the company.

39. 39 IFRS vs. U.S. GAAP  IFRS allow a company to write the value of its property, plant, and equipment up to fair value if fair value can reliably be measured. Increases are credited to stockholders’ equity as a revaluation surplus.  IFRS require that the cost of relocating or reorganizing property, plant, and equipment be expensed.  Under U.S. GAAP, companies can elect to either capitalize or expense these expenditures.

40. 40 Disclosure of Property, Plant, and Equipment GAAP requires a company to disclose the balances of its major classes of depreciable assets by nature or function.  Land  Building and leasehold improvements  Machinery and equipment
