Chapter 9Reporting and Analyzing
Long-Lived Assets
4
Types of ExpendituresRevenue Expenditure -
immediately charged against revenue as an expense.
Capital Expenditure - increase the company’s investment in productive activity.
5
Plant Assets...Are resources that:
have physical substance; are used in the operations of a
business are not intended for sale to customers.
Are recorded at cost. cost consists of all expenditures
necessary to acquire the asset and make it ready for its intended use.
6
Cost is measured by: the cash paid in a cash transaction, or the cash equivalent price paid when
noncash assets are used in payment.The cash equivalent price is equal to:
the fair market value of the asset given up, or
the fair market value of the asset received, whichever is more clearly determinable.

Cost of Land Includes:the cash purchase priceclosing costs such as title and
attorney's feesreal estate brokers commissionsaccrued property taxes and other liens
on the land assumed by the purchaserCosts of clearing the land
9
Cost of Land ImprovementsInclude:
All expenditures necessary to make the improvements ready for their intended use. Examples: Drive ways Parking lots Fences Underground sprinklers
10
Buildings Include:
All necessary expenditures relating to the purchase or construction of a building.
Examples Stores Offices Factories Warehouses Airplane Hangers
11
Cost of Buildings Include:
All necessary expenditures relating to the purchase or construction of a building.
When a building is purchased such costs include the: purchase price closing costs (attorney's fees
title insurance) real estate broker's
commissions.
12
Cost of Buildings Include:
Cost of making a building ready for its intended use consist of: expenditures for remodeling
rooms or offices replacing or repairing
rooffloorselectrical wiringplumbing
13
Buildings
When a building is constructed, its cost consists of: the contract price architect's fees building permits excavation cost interest costs during construction.
14
Examples of Equipment
Store check-out counterOffice furnitureFactory MachineryDelivery Equipment
Trucks Airplanes
15
Cost of Equipment Includes:
purchase pricesales taxfreight charges and
insurance during transit paid by the purchaser
expenditures required in assembling, installing and testing the unit.
16
Equipment
Two criteria apply in determining the cost of equipment: the frequency of cost - one time or
recurring the benefit period - the life of the asset
or 1 year.
17
Advantages of Leasing an Asset Versus Puchasing
Reduced risk of obsolescenceLittle or no down paymentShared tax advantagesAssets and liabilities not reported
18
Depreciation
Applies to three classes of plant assets: Land improvements Buildings Equipment.
NOT LAND!
19
The revenue-producing ability of an asset declines during its useful life because of wear and tear.
Depreciable Assets
A decline in revenue- producing ability may also
occur because of obsolescence.
20
Depreciation is… The process of allocating to expense the cost of a
plant asset over its useful life in a rational and systematic manner.
A process of cost allocation, not a process of asset valuation.
21
Land
Does not depreciate since its usefulness and revenue producing ability generally remain intact, or increase.
24
Affects of Depreciation
Depreciation affects the balance sheet through accumulated depreciation, which is reported as a reduction from plant assets.
Depreciation affects the income statement through depreciation expense.
26
Straight-line Method
Depreciable Cost*________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The asset's useful life measured in years
*(cost of the asset less its salvage value)
28
Straight-line Method
Is the most widely used method of depreciation.
Depreciation is the same for each year of the asset's useful life. 2001

29
Partial Year Depreciation
If an asset is purchased during the year rather than on January 1, the annual depreciation is prorated for the proportion of a year it is used.
30
Declining-Balance Method
Is an accelerated method.
Accelerated methods of depreciation result in more depreciation in the early years of an asset's life and less depreciation in the later years. 20

Units-of-Activity Method
The life of an asset is expressed in terms of the total units of production or the use expected from the asset.

Depreciation and Income Taxes
The IRS allows corporate taxpayers to deduct depreciation when computing taxable income.
The IRS does not require the taxpayer to use the same depreciation method on the tax return that is used in preparing financial statements.
33
Depreciation and Income Taxes
Many large corporations use straight-line depreciation in their financial statements to maximize net income.
At the same time they use a special accelerated-depreciation method on their tax returns to minimize their income taxes.
34
For tax purposes: the straight-line method or a special accelerated-depreciation
method called theModified AcceleratedCostRecoverySystem
The choice of depreciation method must be disclosed in the notes to financial statements.
Depreciation and Income Taxes
35
Revising Periodic DepreciationWhen a change in an estimate is required, the
change is made in current and future years but not to prior periods.
Significant changes in estimates must be disclosed in the financial statements.
Extending an asset's estimated life reduces depreciation expense and increases net income for the period.
36
Ordinary Repairs
Expenditures to maintain the operating efficiency and expected productive life of the asset.
Are usually small in amount that occur frequently throughout the service life.
37
Ordinary Repairs
Examples: motor tune-ups oil changes the painting of buildings the replacing of worn-out gears
Ordinary repairs increase Repair Expense and are revenue expenditures.
38
Additions and Improvements
Costs incurred to increase the: operating efficiency productive capacity or expected useful life of the plant asset
Are usually material in amount and occur infrequently during the period of ownership
Are capital expenditures
39
Impairment
A permanent decline in the market value of an asset is written down to the new market value during the year in which the decline occurs.
40
Plant Asset Disposals The depreciation for the fraction of the year to the date of
disposal must be recorded. Depreciation Expense 8,000
Accumulated Depreciation 8,000
Compute Book Value: Book Value =
Cost - Accumulated Depreciation
41
Sale of Plant AssetsIn the sale of an asset, the book
value of the asset is compared with the proceeds from the sale.
If the proceeds exceed the book value, a gain on disposal occurs.
Conversely, if proceeds from the sale are less than the book value, a loss on disposal occurs.
42
Retirement of Plant Assets
Is recorded by decreasing Accumulated Depreciation for the full amount of depreciation taken over the life of the asset.
The asset account is reduced for the original cost of the asset.
The loss is equal to the asset's book value at the time of retirement.
43
Analyzing Plant Assets
The two measures by which plant assets are evaluated are:
Returns on Asset RatioAsset Turnover Ratio
44
Return on Assets Ratio
Indicates the amount of net income generated by each dollar invested in
assets
Net IncomeAverage Assets
45
Asset Turnover Ratio
Indicates: How efficiently a company
uses its assets? How many dollars of sales are
generated by each dollar invested in assets? Net Sales
Average Total Assets
46
Asset Turnover Ratio
Two ways a company can increase its return on assets:
Increase profit per sale--measured by profit margin ratio.
Increase its volume of sales--measured by the asset turnover ratio=
Net Sales Average Total Assets
47
Intangible Assets are rights privileges competitive advantages that result from ownership of long-lived assets that do not possess physical substance
48
Amortization...
Allocation of the cost of an intangible asset to expense over the shorter of:
its useful (economic) lifeits legal lifeNo amortization if life is
unlimited
49
Types of Intangible Assets
PatentsCopyrightsTrademark or Trade NamesFranchises and LicensesGoodwill
PATENT
50
An exclusive right issued by the U.S. Patent Office that enables the recipient to manufacture, sell, or control a patent for 20 years from the date of grant.
Patents
51
The initial cost of a patent is cash or cash equivalent price paid to acquire the patent.
Legal costs of protecting a patent in an infringement suit are added to the Patent account and amortized over the remaining life of the patent.
Patents
52
Research and Development Costs
Because of the uncertainty of identifying the extent and timing of future benefits, these costs are usually recorded as an expense when incurred.
53
Copyrights
Copyrights are granted by the federal government giving the owner the exclusive right to reproduce and sell artistic or published work.
Copyrights extend for the life of the creator plus 50 years.
54
Trademarks/ Trade Names
A word, phrase, jingle,or symbol that distinguishes or identifies a particular enterprise or product.
55
Franchises
A franchise is a contractual agreement under which the franchiser grants the franchisee the right to sell certain products to render specific services or to use certain
trademarks or trade names, usually within a designated geographic area.
56
Licenses
Operating rights granted by a government body permit the enterprise to use public property in performing its service (i.e. the use of airwaves for radio or TV broadcasting).
57
Costs Associated with Franchise or License
When costs can be identified with the acquisition of the franchise or license, an intangible asset should be recognized.
Annual payments made under a franchise agreement should be recorded as operating expenses.
58
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the value of all favorable attributes that relate to a business enterprise, including: exceptional management desirable location good customer relations skilled employees, etc.
59
Goodwill
Goodwill is recorded only when there is an exchange transaction that involves the purchase of an entire business.
In other words, if you didn’t buy it, it’s not on your balance
sheet.
60
Goodwill
When an entire business is purchased, goodwill is the excess of cost over the fair market value of the net assets (assets less liabilities) acquired.
61
Presentation Of Long-lived Assets
Plant assets are shown in the financial statements under Property, Plant, and Equipment.
Intangibles are shown separately under Intangible Assets.
62
Average Age of Plant Assets
Most companies use straight-line depreciation for financial reporting.
Average age of plant assets =
Accumulated DepreciationDepreciation Expense
63
Age of Plant AssetsAccumulated depreciation as a % of
original cost indicates relative age of fixed assets
Less than 40% depreciated – newer40-60% depreciated – mid-range of lives> 60% depreciated – older fixed assets,
may need replacement (requires cash)
Accumulated Depreciation Cost of fixed assets
