ACCOUNTING FOR PLANT ASSETS Lesson 8-1, page 216 (GAAP) (on)Going Concern – financial statements are prepared with the expectation that a business will remain in operation indefinitely -accounting records must be kept up to date as plant assets are bought and used -costs will be allocated over the useful life of assets **a building and the land it is located on are typically purchased together for a single price…separate values must be assigned to each asset…if a sales contract does not specify separate amounts, an appraisal may be used to determine separate amounts Current Assets – assets that are expected to be exchanged for cash or consumed within a year Plant Assets – assets that will be used for a number of years in the operation of a business (land, buildings, equipment) aka fixed assets or long-term assets Appliance Center has 3 kinds: Office equipment (copier), store equipment (cash register), and warehouse equipment (forklift)

PLANT ASSET RECORD Lesson 8-1, page 218 1 1.Complete when asset is purchased. 2 2.Complete when asset is discarded, sold, or traded. -an accounting form on which a business records information about each plant asset it owns; 3 sections: Straight-line method of depreciation – charging an equal amount of depreciation for a plant asset in each year of useful life 3 3.Complete each year to record annual depreciation expense, the accumulated depreciation, and the ending book value – at the end of each year, we can report the value of our assets accurately 20X0 this year total so far current value

BUYING A PLANT ASSET FOR CASH Lesson 8-1, page 219 BUYING A PLANT ASSET ON ACCOUNT Paid cash for new copying machine, $1,680.00. Check No. 62 Bought an office computer on account from Discount Computers, $3,300.00. Memo No. 70

CALCULATING AND PAYING PROPERTY TAX Lesson 8-1, page 220 For tax purposes, state and federal governments define two kinds of property: real and personal real property – land and anything attached to it (real estate) personal property – all the rest (anything that’s not “real”) The value of an asset determined by tax authorities for the purpose of calculating taxes (only) is the assessed value The assessed value may not (will most likely not) be the same as the book value on the business’ records A governmental taxing unit (borough, city, township, etc.) determines a tax rate to use in calculating taxes…this rate is multiplied by an asset’s assessed value, not the book value
5
CALCULATING AND PAYING PROPERTY TAX Lesson 8-1, page 220 Paid cash for yearly property tax, $3,250.00. Check No. 122. Payment of property taxes is necessary if a firm is to continue in business…therefore property tax is classified as an operating expense (must pay it to keep operating) Be careful to only record for the time period… ½ year, ½ tax Annual Property Tax = Tax Rate Assessed Value $65,000.00 5% = $3,250.00

DEPRECIATIONDEPRECIATION Lesson 8-2, page 222 Plant assets will wear out, become outdated by new models, or become no longer needed (GAAP) – Matching Expenses with Revenue – the cost of a plant asset should be allocated to an expense account over the useful life of the plant asset; record depreciation expense at the end of each fiscal period Depreciation Expense – the portion of a plant asset’s cost that is transferred to an expense account in each fiscal period Land – permanent – not subject to depreciation; increases or decreases are only recorded when land is sold or otherwise disposed of
11
FACTORS USED TO CALCULATE DEPRECIATION Lesson 8-2, page 222 Three factors are used to calculate a plant asset’s annual depreciation expense: 1 – Original Cost: Includes all costs paid to make the asset usable to a business – purchase price, delivery costs, and any necessary installation costs 2 – Estimated Salvage Value: when a plant asset is disposed of, some part of its original value may remain; the salvage value is the amount an owner expects to receive when a plant asset is removed from use aka residual value, scrap value or trade-in value an estimate made when the asset is bought we need the estimated number so we can depreciate as we go 3 – Estimated Useful Life: the number of years an asset is expected to be useful to a business; past experience tells us…or we can use IRS guidelines 2 of these 3 values are estimates

15
CALCULATING DEPRECIATION EXPENSE FOR PART OF A YEAR Lesson 8-2, page 223 A calendar month is the smallest unit of time used to calculate depreciation …but a plant asset may be put into or taken out of use at a date other than the first day of a fiscal period When this happens, depreciation expense is calculated to the nearest first of a month August 8 th = August 1 st September 20 th = October 1 st (Sept. 20 th is closer to October 1 st than Sept. 1 st ) August 1 st to December 31 st = 5 months of use that year October 1 st to December 31 st = 3 months of use that year

RECORDING DEPRECIATION ON PLANT ASSET RECORDS – Step 1 Lesson 8-2, page 224 2. Calculate accumulated depreciation. 20X320X220X3 Depreciation Expense+Accumulated Depreciation=Accumulated Depreciation 20X3$120.00+$170.00=$290.00 3. Calculate ending book value. 20X320X220X3 Original Cost–Accumulated Depreciation=Ending Book Value 20X3$700.00 – $290.00=$410.00 1. Calculate annual depreciation expense. Original Cost$700.00 – Estimated Salvage Value – 100.00 =Est. Depreciation Expense$ 600.00 Estimated Useful Life 5 =Annual Depreciation Expense$120.00 2 At the end of the useful life, the cabinet should be depreciated down to its estimated salvage value. At the end of the sixth year, the ending book value is equal to the estimated salvage value, $100.00. The actual useful life may exceed the estimate made when the asset was put to use. 3 …but the depreciation is no longer recorded once they are equal 1 120.00 12 = 10/month (nearest 1 st of a month) 5 months (Aug-Dec)

33
DISCARDING A PLANT ASSET WITH A BOOK VALUE Lesson 8-3, page 228 When a plant asset is disposed of, its depreciation expense from the beginning of the year to the date of disposal is recorded …the asset won’t be around (in reality or on our books) at the end of the year to depreciate it When an asset with a book value is discarded, 2 journal entries are recorded to: 1 – Remove the original cost of the plant asset and its related depreciation 2 – Recognize the loss on disposal of the asset The loss from discarding a plant asset with a book value is equal to the book value (Loss on Plant Assets – classified as “Other Expense”) If you throw out something worth $25.00, it would be a $25.00 loss

DECLINING-BALANCE METHOD OF DEPRECIATION Lesson 8-4, page 234 Def. – multiplying the book value at the end of each fiscal period by a constant depreciation rate Many plant assets depreciate more in the early years of useful life than in the later years Charging more depreciation expense in the early years would be more accurate (“drive it off the lot”) Although the depreciation rate is the same each year, the annual depreciation expense declines from year to year Rate is based on the straight-line rate. A declining-balance depreciation rate that is twice the straight line rate is commonly used – double declining-balance method **We will always double the rate Never depreciate below the ESV

CALCULATING DEPRECIATION EXPENSE FOR INCOME TAX PURPOSES Lesson 8-4, page 238 MACRS – Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System IRS requires that plant assets placed into service after 1986 be evaluated for tax purposes using this method (all other methods were for financial statement purposes) There are 9 classes of plant assets – each one has its own set of rates MACRS allows for more depreciation towards the beginning of the life of the capital asset (similar to double-declining balance), allowing the tax deductible depreciation expense to be taken sooner All plant assets are assumed to be placed in service in the middle of the year and taken out of service in the middle of the year 3-year property 5-year property 7-year property 10-year property 15-year property 20-year property Real Estate: 27.5-year property 39-year property Most common – cars, computers, mfg. equipment Office furniture & fixtures
