Self-Constructed Assets
The cost should include all materials

such as interest, utilities, and
supervision.

Noncash Acquisitions
A plant asset may be acquired in
exchange for noncash items, such
as land, stock or notes payable.

Noncash Acquisitions
General Rule
Record the asset received at the fair
market value of the asset received or
the fair market value of the asset given
up, whichever is more clearly evident.

Noncash Acquisitions
If fair market value cannot be
determined, use appraised value to
record a noncash transaction.

Book value is the asset’s cost less
accumulated depreciation.
We would only assign book value of the
asset given up to the asset received
when better information is unavailable.

Partial-Year Depreciation
If an asset is purchased sometime during
the year, we have to adjust annual
depreciation for the partial-year period.

Partial-Year Depreciation
Example
On June 30, 19X1 we purchased
equipment for $75,000 cash. The
equipment has a useful life of 10 years
and estimated salvage value of $5,000.
Partial-Year Depreciation
Example
Ann. Depr. = ($75,000 - $5,000) ÷ 10
= $7,000

Changes in Estimates
Because depreciation is based on the
estimated useful life and estimated
salvage value, depreciation expense is
an estimate.
Over the life of an asset, Useful

to light that indicates the
original estimated useful
life or salvage value was
inaccurate.
10-58
Changes in Estimates
If the useful life or salvage value of an
asset changes, we must revise
depreciation expense for the current
and future periods. (i.e., prospectively
not retroactively.)
For this change in accounting estimate,
we spread the remaining undepreciated
cost (book value) over the remaining
useful life - like peanut butter.
10-59
Changes in Estimates
Example
On January 1, 1996, we purchased
equipment costing $30,000, with a useful
life of 10 years and zero salvage value.
During 1999, we determine that the
remaining useful life is 5 years (8-year
total life). We use straight-line
depreciation.
