Compute and record depreciation of property, plant, and equipment by commonly used methods.
Objective 2
18-6
Long term assets, like buildings, machinery, equipment, furniture, and fixtures are depreciated because they have a limited life and get used up over time.
Depreciation refers to the loss of usefulness, and not necessarily to a decrease in the market value.
The account Depreciation Expense is debited, and the account accumulated depreciation is credited to record the depreciation for a period.
Depreciation
18-8
Straight-Line Method
Formula: Depreciation = Cost – Salvage Value Estimated Useful Life The same dollar amount of depreciation is taken
each year as an expense.
18-9
Declining-Balance Method
The book value of an asset at the beginning of the year is multiplied by a percentage to determine depreciation for the year.
This is an accelerated method of depreciation.
This method ignores salvage value.
18-10
Double-Declining-Balance Method
Step 1 Calculate the straight-line rate.
100% 100% Useful Life 5 years
= 20% (straight-line rate)=
Step 2 Calculate the double-declining rate.
Straight-line rate x 2 =
20% x 2 = 40%
18-11
Beginning Depreciation Accumulated Year Book Value Percentage for the Year Depreciation
1 $2,400.00 40% $960.00 $960.00
(–960.00)
Double-Declining-Balance Method Step 3 Compute depreciation for the period by
multiplying the book value by the double- declining rate. Repeat over asset’s useful life.
3 864.00 40%
2 1,440.00 40% 576.00 1,536.00
(- 576.00)
18-12
Sum-of-the-Years’-Digits Method
This is an accelerated depreciation method.
The denominator is sum of the useful life years added together.
(If the useful life is 5 years, then denominator is 15 (1+2+3+4+5).
The numerator is the number of years remaining in the useful life of the asset.
Year 1: The fraction is 5/15.
Year 2: The fraction is 4/15.
Year 5: The fraction is 1/15.
The fraction is multiplied by the acquisition cost less the net salvage value.
18-13
Units-of-Output Method
Calculates depreciation at the same rate for each unit produced.
Unit of production can be measured by:
Physical quantities of production.
Number of hours the asset is used.
Other measures.
18-14
Depreciation for Federal Income Tax Purposes
A different set of rules is used for depreciation for income tax purposes.
MACRS = Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System
“Cost Recovery” refers to the amount of depreciation expense used in computing taxable income.
Apply the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) for federal income tax purposes

18-16
Businesses routinely sell or dispose of plant assets that are no longer useful to the business.
When assets are disposed of, the business often incurs a gain or loss.
Proceeds – Book Value = Gain or loss
Methods of Disposition
18-18
Disposal by Scrapping or Discarding
When an asset is worn out, often it is simply discarded.
If the discarded asset is not fully depreciated, depreciation is recorded up to the date of disposal.
18-19
Disposal by Sale
Step 1. Record depreciation to the date of disposition.
Step 2. Remove the cost of the asset.
Step 3. Remove the accumulated depreciation.
Step 4. Record the proceeds.
Step 5. Determine and record the gain or loss, if any.
Record sales of plant and equipment
Objective 4
18-20
If the asset is sold for the same amount as the book value, there is no gain or loss.
Sale at Book Value
Income Statement

No change in net income
No change in equity

Disposal by Trade-in
Step 1. Record the depreciation up to the date of trade-in.
Step 2. Record the trade-in of the old asset and the purchase of the new asset. Use either: the financial accounting rules, or
the income tax rules.
Disposing of Fixed Assets by Exchange
18-25
The financial accounting rules allow a loss to be recognized on the trade-in of a similar asset.
ANSWER:
QUESTION:
What are the financial accounting rules for trade-ins of similar assets?
A gain is not recognized!!
18-26
Applying the Financial Accounting Rules if there is a loss on the trade-in:
Step 1. Remove the cost of the old asset.
Step 2. Remove the accumulated depreciation for the old asset.
Step 3. Record the payment.
Step 4. Record the new asset at its fair market value.
Step 5. Determine and record the loss.
18-27
Financial Accounting Rules
Formula for determining loss or gain:
Trade-in allowance
– (Book value)
= (Loss) or gain
18-28
Gain: (Trade in > Book Value of old.)Gain not recognized!! New asset’s recorded cost: Book value of old asset + Cash Payment = Recorded cost of new asset
Loss: (Trade in < Book Value of old)Recognize loss in Loss on Trade-in of Plant Asset.
Financial Accounting Rules

The income tax method records the trade-in of an asset according to income tax rules.
ANSWER:
QUESTION:
What is the income tax method?
Income tax rules do not recognize gain or loss on a trade-in.
18-30
Income Tax Method
Step 1.Remove the cost of the old asset.
Step 2.Remove the accumulated depreciation for the old asset.
Step 3.Record the payment.
Step 4.Determine and record the cost of the new asset.
18-31
Formula for the new asset:
Book Value of the old asset
+ Payment for the new asset
= Cost of the new asset
Income Tax Method
18-32
Gain: Not recognized.A gain simply reduces the new asset’s cost.
Loss: Not recognized.A loss simply increases the tax basis (historical cost for tax purposes).
Income Tax Method
18-33
Recall that conservatism requires that the method that is least likely to overstate income should be used.
Income Tax Method
Therefore, under GAAP, a loss must be recorded.
However, some argue that the income tax method is acceptable (no loss recorded) if the loss is not material.
