Dep Flashcards
Depletion rate is
Depletion base/ est. removable ore available
Depletion base=
Price, estimated restoration cost
Development cost less expected salvage.
Depletion expense is
(Rate)(amt sold)..eg. [2.4][60 tons sold]
Double declining balance=
2(1/N)X NBV
Depreciation calculation is based on
FMV- Salvage value
Or cost- sal
Accelerated dep would reflect asset incurs increasing repairs with use
Units of depreciation is when assets declines with use
Group is for groups of similar assets
Composite is for collection of dissimilar assets.
Both uses SL dep!!!
Tricky question : which method used will accumulated dep = the original cost when there’s is a 15% salvage value?
None because if accumulated dep = original cost, then asset has to be dep to 0 which is impossible is there is a salvage value!!
Permanent impairment loss is added
to accumulated depreciation.
Composite life=
Total dep base / total annual dep
So for the investment account using equity method:
It will be increased by payment of investment, the income, minus div and amort of asset in excess of cv and FV
Do not amort asset in Cost method !!
