Data related to the acquisition of timber rights and intangible assets during the current year ended December 31 are as follows:

Data related to the acquisition of timber rights and intangible assets during the current year ended December 31 are as follows:

a. On December 31, the company determined that $3,400,000 of goodwill was impaired.

b.  Governmental and legal costs of $4,800,000 were incurred on September 30 in obtaining a patent with an estimated economic life of eight years. Amortization is to be for one-fourth of a year.

c. Timber rights on a tract of land were purchased for $2,975,000 on February 4. The stand of timber is estimated at 12,500,000 board feet. During the current year, 4,150,000 board feet of timber were cut and sold.

Instructions
1. Determine the amount of the amortization, depletion, or impairment for the current year for each of the foregoing items.
2. Journalize the adjusting entries to record the amortization, depletion, or impairment for each item.


Answer:
1 a. Loss from impaired goodwill, $3,400,000
b. $4,800,000 ÷ 8 years = $600,000;
1/4 of $600,000 = $150,000
c. $2,975,000 ÷ 12,500,000 board feet = $0.238 per board foot;
4,150,000 board feet × $0.238 per board foot = $987,700

New tire retreading equipment, acquired at a cost of $110,000 on September 1 of Year 1 (beginning of the fiscal year)

New tire retreading equipment, acquired at a cost of $110,000 on September 1 of Year 1 (beginning of the fiscal year), has an estimated useful life of four years and an estimated residual value of $7,500. The manager requested information regarding the effect of alternative methods on the amount of depreciation expense each year. On the basis of the data presented to the manager, the double-declining-balance method was selected. On September 6 of Year 4, the equipment was sold for $18,000.

Instructions
1. Determine the annual depreciation expense for each of the estimated four years of use, the accumulated depreciation at the end of each year, and the book value of the equipment at the end of each year by (a) the straight-line method and (b) the double-declining-balance method. The following columnar headings are suggested for each schedule:

Year Depreciation Expense Accumulated Depreciation,  End of Year Book Value, End of Year


2. Journalize the entry to record the sale.
3. Journalize the entry to record the sale, assuming that the equipment sold for $10,500 instead of $18,000.

Layton Company purchased tool sharpening equipment on October 1 for $108,000

Layton Company purchased tool sharpening equipment on October 1 for $108,000.The equipment was expected to havea useful life ofthree years, or 12,000 operating hours, and a residual value of $7,200. The equipment was used for 1,350 hours during Year 1, 4,200 hours in Year 2, 3,650 hours in Year 3, and 2,800 hours in Year 4.

Instructions
Determine the amount of depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, Year 1, Year 2, Year 3, and Year 4, by (a) the straight-line method, (b) the units-of-activity method, and (c) the double-declining-balance method.


Answer:
a. Straight-line method:
Year 1: [($108,000 – $7,200) ÷ 3] × 3 ÷ 12....................................... $ 8,400
Year 2: [($108,000 – $7,200) ÷ 3]................................................... 33,600
Year 3: [($108,000 – $7,200) ÷ 3]................................................... 33,600
Year 4: [($108,000 – $7,200) ÷ 3] × 9 ÷ 12....................................... 25,200
b. Units-of-activity method:
Activity rate = ($108,000 – $7,200) ÷ 12,000 hours = $8.40 per hour
Year 1: 1,350 hours × $8.40......................................................... $11,340
Year 2: 4,200 hours × $8.40......................................................... 35,280
Year 3: 3,650 hours × $8.40......................................................... 30,660
Year 4: 2,800 hours × $8.40......................................................... 23,520
c. Double-declining-balance method:
Year 1: $108,000 × 2 ÷ 3 × 3 ÷ 12................................................... $18,000
Year 2: ($108,000 – $18,000) × 2 ÷ 3............................................. 60,000
Year 3: ($108,000 – $18,000 – $60,000) × 2 ÷ 3................................. 20,000
Year 4: ($108,000 – $18,000 – $60,000 – $20,000 – $7,200)............... 2,800

Note:  Book value should not be reduced below $7,200, the residual value.

Waylander Coatings Company purchased waterproofing equipment on January 6 for $320,000

Waylander Coatings Company purchased waterproofing equipment on January 6 for $320,000. The equipment was expected to have a useful life of four years, or 20,000 operating hours, and a residual value of $35,000. The equipment was used for 7,200 hours during Year 1, 6,400 hours in Year 2, 4,400 hours in Year 3, and 2,000 hours in Year 4.

Instructions
1. Determine the amount of depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, Year 1, Year 2, Year 3, and Year 4, by (a) the straight-line method, (b) the units-of-activity method, and (c) the double-declining-balance method. Also determine the total depreciation expense for the four years by each method. The following columnar headings are suggested for recording the depreciation expense amounts:

Depreciation Expense Year Straight-Line Method Units-of-Activity Method Double-Declining-Balance Method



2. What method yields the highest depreciation expense for Year 1?
3. What method yields the most depreciation over the four-year life of the equipment?


Answer:
1.
a. Straight- b. Units-of- c. Double-
Line Activity Declining-Balance
Year Method Method Method
Year 1 $ 71,250 $102,600 $160,000
Year 2 71,250 91,200 80,000
Year 3 71,250 62,700 40,000
Year 4 71,250 28,500 5,000
Total $285,000 $285,000 $285,000
Calculations:
Straight-line method:
($320,000 – $35,000) ÷ 4 = $71,250 each year
Units-of-activity method:
($320,000 – $35,000) ÷ 20,000 hours = $14.25 per hour
Year 1: 7,200 hours × $14.25 = $102,600
Year 2: 6,400 hours × $14.25 = $91,200
Year 3: 4,400 hours × $14.25 = $62,700
Year 4: 2,000 hours × $14.25 = $28,500
Double-declining-balance method:
Year 1: $320,000 × [(1 ÷ 4) × 2] = $160,000
Year 2: ($320,000 – $160,000) × [(1 ÷ 4) × 2] = $80,000
Year 3: ($320,000 – $160,000 – $80,000) × [(1 ÷ 4) × 2] = $40,000
Year 4: ($320,000 – $160,000 – $80,000 – $40,000 – $35,000) = $5,000
Note:  Book value should not be reduced below the residual value of $35,000.
2. The double-declining-balance method yields the most depreciation expense in 
Year 1 of $160,000.
3. Over the four-year life of the equipment, all three depreciation methods yield 
the same total depreciation, $285,000, which is the cost of the equipment of 

$320,000 less the residual value of $35,000.

Instructions
1. Assign each payment and receipt to Land (unlimited life), Land Improvements (limited life), Building, or Other Accounts. Indicate receipts by an asterisk. Identify each item by letter and list the amounts in columnar form, as follows:

Item Land Land Improvements Building Other Accounts


2. Determine the amount debited to Land, Land Improvements, and Building.

3. The costs assigned to the land, which is used as a plant site, will not be depreciated, while the costs assigned to land improvements will be depreciated. Explain this seemingly contradictory application of the concept of depreciation.
4. What would be the effect on the current year’s income statement and balance sheet if the cost of paving the parking lot of $21,600 [payment (o)] was incorrectly classified as Land rather than Land Improvements? Assume that Land Improvements are depreciated over a 10-year life using the double-declining-balance method.

3. Land used as a plant site does not lose its ability to provide services; thus, it is
not depreciated. However, land improvements do lose their ability to provide
services as time passes and are, therefore, depreciated.
4. Because land improvements are depreciated, depreciation expense of $4,320 
[$21,600 × (100% ÷ 10) × 2] would be understated and net income would be
overstated by $4,320 on the income statement. On the balance sheet, Land would 
be overstated by $21,600, Land Improvements would be understated by $17,280 

($21,600 – $4,320), and Retained Earnings would be overstated by $4,320.
