When should a company stop capitalizing interest costs on an asset under construction
Once the asset is ready for use, any subsequent interest costs should be expensed.
Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are routine costs to keep the asset in normal working condition are _________
expensed, not capitalized. Oil changes and tire replacements are considered repairs and maintenance because they are expected costs to keep asset in normal working condition.
What are the steps for Calculating Weighted-Average Interest Rate for Capitalized Interest
How is an asset retirement handled under group depreciation, especially if insurance proceeds are received?
How can you determine which depreciation method was used if an asset disposal resulted in a reported loss?
When a company plans to dispose of long-lived assets, how should they be reported on the balance sheet at year-end if they have not been sold yet?
Report long-lived assets that are planned for disposal at the lower of:
Carrying amount or
Fair value less cost to sell
How is an impairment loss measured for a long-lived asset still in use?
Impairment loss = Carrying amount - Fair value (no cost to sell).
Note: Cost to sell is not applicable for assets in use.
What is the composite depreciation method, and how does it differ from other depreciation methods?
What determines the fair value used for impairment assessment if both in-use and in-exchange values are provided?
When assessing fair value, select the higher of the in-use or in-exchange value, regardless of whether the asset is intended to remain in use or be disposed of. The higher value reflects the principle of “highest and best use” for the asset.
What is the appropriate measurement basis for assets classified as “held for sale”?
For assets classified as “held for sale,” measure at the lower of carrying amount or net realizable value (NRV). NRV is calculated as the estimated selling price minus any costs of disposal. Depreciation is no longer applied once an asset is classified as held for sale, but impairment losses are allowed.
How should the cash equivalent cost of an asset be calculated when using a noninterest-bearing note payable, and how is this amount used in depreciation calculations?
How do you calculate Weighted Average Accumulated Expenditures (WAAE) for construction projects, and when do you use monthly fractions like 1/12 versus full-year weighting?
How is depreciation calculated using the Sum-of-the-Years’-Digits method
Classify the following expenditures as Capitalized or Expensed:
Freight charges for goods held for resale
In-transit insurance for goods purchased FOB shipping point
Interest on note payable for goods held for resale
Installation of equipment
Testing of newly purchased equipment
Cost of current-year service contract on equipment
