General Rule for Cost CapitalizationThe initial cost of an operational asset includes the
purchase price and all expenditures necessary to bring the asset to its desired condition and location for use.
Costs to be Capitalized
Land (not depreciable)• Purchase price• Real estate commissions• Attorney’s fees• Title search• Title transfer fees• Title insurance premiums• Removing old buildings
Equipment• Net purchase price• Taxes• Transportation costs• Installation costs• Modification to building
necessary to install equipment
• Testing and trial runs
Costs to be Capitalized
Land Improvements – Separately identifiable costs
• Driveways• Parking lots• Fencing• Landscaping• Private roads
Buildings• Purchase price• Attorney’s fees• Commissions• Reconditioning
Natural Resources• Acquisition costs• Exploration costs• Development costs• Restoration costs
Self Constructed Assets• Materials• Direct Labor• Overhead
Discussion Questions
Q10–4 Indicate where the following items would be shown on a balance sheet.

(e) A parking lot servicing employees in the building.
(f) Cost of temporary building for workers during construction of building
(g) Interest expense on bonds payable incurred during construction of a building.
(h) Assessments for sidewalks that are maintained by the city.

Example 1: Continued
Semtech Manufacturing purchased land and building for $4 million. In addition to the purchase price, Semtech made the following expenditures in connection with the purchase of the land and building:
Title insurance $ 16,000
Legal fees for drawing the contract 5,000
Pro-rated property taxes for period after acquisition 36,000
State transfer fees 4,000
An independent appraisal estimated the fair values of the land and building, if purchased separately, at $3.3 and $1.1 million, respectively. Shortly after acquisition, Semtech spent $82,000 to construct a parking lot and $40,000 for landscaping. Determine the initial valuation of each asset Semtech acquired in these transactions.

7. On December 10, the company acquired a tract of land at a cost of $20,000. It paid $2,000 down and signed a 10% note with both principal and interest due in one year. Ten percent is an appropriate rate of interest for this note.
Self-Constructed Assets
When self-constructing an asset, two accounting issues must be addressed:• overhead allocation to the self-constructed asset.
– incremental overhead only– full-cost approach
• proper treatment of interest incurred during construction
Under certain conditions, interest incurred on qualifying assets is capitalized.• Asset constructed is for a company’s own use and is a
discrete project for sale or lease.• Capitalize interest that could have been avoided if the
asset were not constructed and the money used to retire debt.
Three approaches have been suggested to account for the interest incurred in financing the construction.
Capitalize no interest during construction
Capitalize actual costs incurred during construction
Capitalize all costs of funds
GAAP
$ 0 $ ?Increase to Cost of Asset
Interest Costs During Construction
GAAP requires — capitalizing actual interest (with
modification).
Consistent with historical cost.
Capitalization considers three items:
1. Qualifying assets.
2. Capitalization period.
3. Amount to capitalize.
Interest Costs During Construction
Require a substantial period of time to get them ready
for their intended use.
Two types of assets:
Assets under construction for a company’s own
use.
Assets intended for sale or lease that are
constructed or produced as discrete projects.
Qualifying Assets
Capitalization Period
Begins when:
1. Expenditures for the asset have been made.
2. Activities for readying the asset are in progress .
3. Interest costs are being incurred.
Ends when:
The asset is substantially complete and ready for use.
Capitalization Period
Capitalize the lesser of:
1. Actual interest costs
2. Avoidable interest - the amount of interest that
could have been avoided if expenditures for the
asset had not been made.
Amount to Capitalize
Discussion Questions
Q10–10 What interest rates should be used in determining the amount of interest to be capitalized? How should interest revenue from temporarily invested excess funds borrowed to finance the construction of assets be accounted for?
Selecting Appropriate Interest Rate:
1. For the portion of weighted-average accumulated expenditures that
is less than or equal to any amounts borrowed specifically to
finance construction of the assets, use the interest rate incurred on
the specific borrowings.
2. For the portion of weighted-average accumulated expenditures that
is greater than any debt incurred specifically to finance construction
of the assets, use a weighted average of interest rates incurred on
all other outstanding debt during the period.

Noncash Acquisitions
Issuance of Equity Securities• Asset acquired is recorded at the fair value of the asset or the
market value of the securities, whichever is more clearly evident.
• If the securities are actively traded, market value can be easily determined.
• If the securities given are not actively traded, the fair value of the asset received, as determined by appraisal, may be more clearly evident than the fair value of the securities.
Donated Assets• On occasion, companies acquire assets through donation.• The receiving company is required to record
– The donated asset at fair value.– Revenue equal to the fair value of the donated asset.
Example 5
On January 1, 2011, Byner Company purchased a used tractor. Byner paid $5,000 down and signed a noninterest-bearing note requiring $25,000 to be paid on December 31, 2013. The fair value of the tractor is not determinable. An interest rate of 10% properly reflects the time value of money for this type of loan agreement. The company’s fiscal year-end is December 31.
• Prepare the journal entry to record the acquisition of the tractor.
• How much interest expense will the company include in its 2011 and 2012 income statements for this note?
• What is the amount of the liability the company will report in its 2011 and 2012 balance sheets for this note?

What is the amount of the liability the company will report in its 2011 and 2012 balance sheets for this note?
Dispositions
Steps:
1. Update depreciation to date of disposal.
2. Remove original cost of asset and accumulated depreciation from the books.
3. Record what you received.
4. The difference between book value of the asset and the amount received is recorded as a gain or loss.
Exchanges
Generally cost of asset acquired is: – fair value of asset given up plus cash paid or minus
cash received or– fair value of asset acquired, if it is more clearly
evident• In the exchange of operational assets, fair value is used
except in rare situations in which the fair value cannot be determined or the exchange lacks commercial substance.
• When fair value cannot be determined or the exchange lacks commercial substance, the asset(s) acquired are valued at the book value of the asset(s) given up, plus (or minus) any cash exchanged. No gain is recognized.
Example 6
Southern Company owns a building that it leases. The building’s fair value is $1,400,000 and its book value is $800,000 (original cost of $2,000,000 less accumulated depreciation of $1,200,000). Southern exchanges this for another building owned by the Eastern Company. The building’s book value on Eastern’s books is $950,000 (original cost of $1,600,000 less accumulated depreciation of $650,000). Eastern also gives Southern $140,000 to complete the exchange. The exchange has commercial substance for both companies. Prepare the journal entries to record the exchange on the books of Southern.

Exchange Lacks Commercial Substance
• When exchanges are recorded at fair value, any gain or loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and book value of the asset(s) given-up. To preclude the possibility of companies engaging in exchanges of appreciated assets solely to be able to recognize gains, fair value can only be used in legitimate exchanges that have commercial substance.
A nonmonetary exchange is considered to have commercial substance if the company:
1. expects a change in future cash flows as a result of the exchange, and
2. that expected change is significant relative to the fair value of the assets exchanged.
Example 7
The Tinsley Company exchanged land that it had been holding for future plant expansion for a more suitable parcel located farther from residential areas. Tinsley carried the land at its original cost of $30,000. According to an independent appraisal, the land currently is worth $72,000. Tinsley gave $14,000 in cash to complete the transaction.
What is the fair value of the new parcel of land received by Tinsley?

LO 5
When a company contributes a non-monetary asset, it should
record the amount of the donation as an expense at the fair
value of the donated asset.
Example: Kline Industries donates land to the city of Los
Angeles for a city park. The land cost $80,000 and has a fair
value of $110,000. Kline Industries records this donation as
follows.
Contribution Expense 110,000
Land 80,000
Gain on Disposal of Land 30,000

Q10–19
A company may retire plant assets voluntarily or dispose of
them by
Sale.
Involuntary conversion.
Depreciation must be taken up to the date of disposition.
Disposition of PP&E
Example: Ottawa Corporation owns machinery that cost $20,000
when purchased on July 1, 2009. Depreciation has been recorded
at a rate of $2,400 per year, resulting in a balance in accumulated
depreciation of $8,400 at December 31, 2012. The machinery is
sold on September 1, 2013, for $10,500.
Prepare journal entries to
a) update depreciation for 2013 and
b) record the sale.
Sale of Plant Assets
Example 8
a) Depreciation for 2013
b) Record the sale
Example 8: Continued
Sometimes an asset’s service is terminated through some type of involuntary conversion such as fire, flood, theft, or condemnation.
Companies report the difference between the amount recovered (e.g., from a condemnation award or insurance recovery), if any, and the asset’s book value as a gain or loss.
They treat these gains or losses like any other type of disposition.
