35) On October 15, 2013, Out West Enterprises purchased new factory equipment for its manufacturing facilities. The new equipment had an invoice price of $16,000, plus a 6% sales tax. In addition, the purchaser was responsible for $950 of freight charges. The sale was subject to 2/10, n/45 credit terms. Upon receipt of the new equipment Out West Enterprises paid $1,200 to have the equipment installed. To finance the purchase, Out West Enterprises borrowed $17,000 from the First Street Bank for 60 days at 12% interest. Out West Enterprises paid the invoice within 9 days.

Calculate the cost of the factory equipment to be capitalized on the books.

Answer: ($16,000 × 1.06) + $950 + $1,200 - ($16,000 × 0.02) = $16,960 + $950 + $1,200 - $320 = $18,790

26) Explain the concept of depreciation. Include in your discussion one common misconception regarding depreciation and its impact on the finances of a business.

Answer: Depreciation is the process of allocating property, plant, and equipment's cost to expense over the period the asset is used. This process is designed to match the asset's expense against the revenue generated over the asset's life. The primary purpose of depreciation is to help measure income properly.

Depreciation is not a process of valuation, and depreciation does not mean that the business sets aside cash to replace assets as they become fully amortized.

Depreciation is also a noncash expense. Depreciation does not impact cash flows from operations. It is a tax-deductible expense, thus decreasing the income tax payment.

27) For each of the independent situations below, determine the age of the asset in question. All assets were acquired at the beginning of the year.

a. The balance in the Buildings account is $400,000 while the balance sheet shows the book value of the buildings at $217,600. The notes to the financial statements indicate that straight-line depreciation is used for all property, plant, and equipment and that residual values are estimated at 5% of cost. The estimated life of the buildings is 25 years.

b. The book value of the delivery equipment is $51,520. The cost of the delivery equipment was $80,500. The company uses the straight-line method of depreciation for delivery equipment and estimates life at 5 years or 50,000 units. So far, 27,000 units have been produced. Residual value is 10% of cost.

c. The balance in the Accumulated Depreciation account for furniture is $21,875. The furniture has been amortized a total of 43.75% of its original cost. The company's notes to the financial statements indicate that double-declining-balance depreciation is used for all furniture. The company estimates useful life at 8 years and residual value at 20% of cost.

Answer:

a. $400,000 × 0.95 = $380,000 amortizable amount

$380,000/25 = $15,200 annual depreciation

$400,000 - $217,600 = $182,400 balance in accumulated depreciation

$182,400/$15,200 = 12 years old

b. $80,500 × 0.90 = $72,450 amortizable amount

$72,450/5 = $14,490 annual depreciation

$80,500 - $51,520 = $28,980 balance in accumulated depreciation

$28,980/$14,490 = 2 years old

c. $21,875/0.4375 = $50,000 original cost

$50,000 × 0.25 = $12,500 first year's depreciation expense

$37,500 × 0.25 = $9,375 second year's depreciation expense

$12,500 + $9,375 = $21,875 = balance in accumulated depreciation

28) Carleton Corporation purchased machinery on October 1, 2013, at a total cost of $98,000. Estimated residual value is $8,000, estimated life of the machinery is 6 years or 50,000 hours. During 2013 and 2014, the machinery was used 1,400 and 8,760 hours, respectively.

Compute depreciation under straight-line, units-of-production, and double-declining-balance methods for 2013 and 2014.

29) Seasons Limited paid $135,000 to purchase equipment at the beginning of 2012. Seasons Limited estimated the useful life of the equipment to be 4 years or 200,000 units. The equipment will be considered fully amortized when the balance in the Accumulated Depreciation account reaches $120,000. The equipment produced 52,000 units in 2015.

Required:

a. Determine the estimated residual value of the equipment.

b. What is the amortizable cost of the equipment?

c. Calculate depreciation expense for 2015 under each of the following methods:

i. straight-line

ii. units-of-production

iii. double-declining-balance

Answer:

a. $135,000 - $120,000 = $15,000

b. $120,000

c. i. $120,000/4 = $30,000

ii. $120,000/200,000 = $0.60; $0.60 × 52,000 = $31,200

iii. 2012 $135,000 × 0.5 = $67,500

2013 $67,500 × 0.5 = $33,750

2014 $33,750 × 0.5 = $16,875

2015 $120,000 - 67,500 - 33,750 - 16,875 = $1,875

31) Rainier Corporation purchased five automobiles at the beginning of 2012 for a total cost of $125,000. Rainier Corporation estimates the total residual value of the five automobiles to be $25,000 and their estimated useful life at 5 years. Use the double declining balance method to calculate the depreciation expense for 2012 and 2013.

Answer: Estimated life: 5 years, so 20%. Double declining balance = 40% per year.

39) Most companies use straight-line depreciation for their books but an accelerated method (CCA depreciation) for the tax return. Explain why companies use these two different methods that result in the need for two sets of records.

Answer: The straight-line method is easy to compute and usually results in proper matching of revenues and expenses according to GAAP. Therefore, many businesses use it to report to creditors and shareholders.

For income tax purposes, a company desires to decrease its income tax payments as quickly as possible. The accelerated method of depreciation does just that. By recording depreciation expense as quickly as possible, a company is able to decrease its immediate tax payments. This conserves the cash for use in the business.

Regardless of which method is used to amortize property, plant, and equipment, over the life of the asset, depreciation expense in total is the same under all methods.
