13. 13 DEPRECIATION METHODS 3 methods to calculate depreciation expense –Straight-line depreciation Same amount of depreciation each year –Units of production depreciation Depreciation varies with asset use –Declining balance Accelerated method provides more depreciation in earlier years 3 methods to calculate depreciation expense –Straight-line depreciation Same amount of depreciation each year –Units of production depreciation Depreciation varies with asset use –Declining balance Accelerated method provides more depreciation in earlier years LG 2

14. 14 STRAIGHT-LINE DEPRECIATION Depreciation expense = (Cost – Residual value) / Useful life LG 2

15. 15 UNITS-OF-PRODUCTION DEPRECIATION Depreciation expense = {(Cost – Residual value)/ Productive activity} * Current activity LG 2

16. 16 DECLINING-BALANCE DEPRECIATION Depreciation expense = 2*(1/Life) * (Cost – Accumulated Depreciation) For double-declining balance: LG 2

17. 17 LG 2 What happens when estimates are revised? Assume book value is 88,000 when residual value revised to 8,000 and remaining life extended to 8 years.

18. 18 REVISED DEPRECIATION LG 2 (Book value – Revised residual value) / Remaining useful life (88,000 – 8,000) / 8 yrs. 10,000 per year (Book value – Revised residual value) / Remaining useful life (88,000 – 8,000) / 8 yrs. 10,000 per year

19. 19 ASSET DISPOSAL Assets can be –Discarded –Sold First, bring depreciation expense up to date Assets can be –Discarded –Sold First, bring depreciation expense up to date LG 3

20. 20 INTANGIBLE ASSETS Intangible assets are –Long term or relatively permanent –Without physical properties –Owned, used by business –Not held for resale Intangible assets are –Long term or relatively permanent –Without physical properties –Owned, used by business –Not held for resale LG 4

21. 21 INTANGIBLE ASSETS: Examples Examples of intangible assets are –Patents –Copyrights, trademarks –Goodwill Cost of intangible assets is amortized over useful (legal life) LG 4

22. 22 INTANGIBLE ASSETS: Definitions Patent –Exclusive right to produce, sell goods with 1 or more unique features Copyright –Exclusive to publish, sell literary, artistic, musical composition Trademark –Name, term, symbol used to identify business, product LG 4

23. 23 AMORTIZING COST Amortization –Term used to match cost of intangible asset against revenue over useful (legal) life Amortization similar to straight-line depreciation Amortization expense = (Cost – Residual value) / Useful life LG 4

24. 24 INTANGIBLE ASSET: Goodwill Goodwill –Arises when one business buys another business –Created when purchase price of business greater than fair market value of net assets –Not amortized; impaired value adjusted LG 4

25. 25 FINANCIAL UTILIZATION Financial utilization measures efficient revenue generation of operational assets Fixed Asset Turnover = Revenue/ Ave. Book Value Fixed Assets Financial utilization measures efficient revenue generation of operational assets Fixed Asset Turnover = Revenue/ Ave. Book Value Fixed Assets LG 6
