 Characteristics that expenditures must possess to be capitalized:

1. The asset must be owned or controlled by the company.

Constructed Assets

When assets are constructed by a company for its own use, capitalized costs should include:

10

 Improvement or betterment
 Consist of outlays that enhance the usefulness of the asset or extend the asset’s useful life beyond the original expectation  Costs should be capitalized

 Routine repairs and maintenance  Expensed in the period incurred

Depreciation is a systematic allocation
of the cost of an asset to expense over time.

Apply different depreciation
methods to allocate the cost of assets over time.

Residual Value
 The expected realizable value of the asset at the end of its useful life
 Also known as salvage value
 Can represent the scrap, disposal, or resale value

 Equal expense each year

 Double-declining-balance method

Depreciation expense = Actual units of service x

Changes in Accounting Estimates

 Estimates of useful lives and residual value are made when assets are acquired
 When necessary, companies can change estimates Changes are applied prospectively
 i.e., only to future accounting periods

Tanner Enterprises decided to extend the useful life of the truck from 5 to 7 years after completing 4 years of service. Straight-line depreciation is used. (Note that the residual value estimate does not change.)

Step 1:Determine the book value at the date of estimate change.

Impairment Analysis of Long-Term Assets

Recording an Asset Impairment

The impairment write-down reduces assets by the amount of the write-down and a loss is recognized on the income statement.

Analysis of asset write-downs present two potential challenges:

PPE Turnover (PPET)
Measures how efficient management utilized its plant

Applying the PPE Turnover ratio to Procter & Gamble:

2016: $65,299 / $19,520 = 3.35 2017: $65,058 / $19,639 = 3.31 2018: $66,832 / $20,247 = 3.30

Accounting for Intangible Assets

 Benefits provided by intangibles are uncertain and difficult to quantify

 Useful life often impossible to estimate with confidence

 Accounting for costs of patents
 If purchased from another company
 Capitalized and amortized
 If developed internally
 Only legal costs and registration fees are capitalized and amortized

 Can be acquired

 Cost is capitalized and amortized over the expected remaining economic life
