1 Operational Assets: Utilization and Impairment
Sid Glandon, DBA, CPA Assistant Professor of Accounting

2 Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization
Means of cost allocation Not a method of valuation Matching Principle Allocation of cost in systematic and rational manner to the accounting periods expected to benefit from use of the asset

3 Measuring Cost Allocation
Estimated service life Depreciable base Original cost less salvage value Allocation method Time-based methods Activity-based methods

4 Time-Based: Straight-Line Method
Calculate depreciable base Original cost Less: salvage or disposal value Determine estimated service life Divide depreciable base by number of years in estimated service life Equals annual depreciation expense

5 Time-Based: Declining Balance
Multiply the straight-line rate by factor (2 Xs = double declining) Current year depreciation Multiply the result times the beginning book value of the asset Reduce book value by current year depreciation Repeat the process

6 Time-Based: Sum of the Years Digits
Sum the years Create fraction Numerator-declining number with first year as the largest number Denominator-the sum of the years Multiply the declining fraction by the depreciable base

7 Example: Fact Pattern

8 Straight Line Depreciation

9 Double Declining Balance

10 Sum of the Years Digits

11 Activity-Based Output based Input based Units of production
Number of hours of service Number of miles of service

12 Activity-Based Methods
Determine depreciable base Determine units of measurement Divide depreciable base by units of measurement Equals depreciation per unit Determine number of units in year Multiply number of units in year by depreciation per unit

13 Activity Based Depreciation

14 Depletion of Natural Resources
Cost basis expensing of natural resources Natural resources Complete removal of asset Replacement only by an act of nature

15 Depletion Activity-based method
Divide depletion base by estimated number of units to be extracted Equals, depletion per unit

16 Amortization of Intangible Assets
Finite useful life intangible assets Useful life Legal, regulatory, or contractual Residual value Usually zero Allocation method Usually straight line Exception-software development costs

17 Intangible Assets Not Subject to Amortization
Indefinite life intangible assets Goodwill

18 Partial Year Depreciation
If asset is placed in service during year Calculate depreciation for full year Allocate between years Half-year convention

19 Revision of Depreciation Estimates
Initial estimates change Life Salvage value Apply prospectively Recompute current year depreciation Changes do not affect prior periods

20 Change in Depreciation Method
Change in accounting principle resulting in a change in estimate Apply prospectively Recompute current year depreciation Changes do not affect prior periods

21 Correction of an Error Restate all prior periods presented in the financial statements Prior period adjustment to retained earnings for the earliest period reported

22 Impairment of Value Carrying value of asset is not recoverable
Operational assets held and used in operations Operational assets held for sale Intangibles with finite life

23 Tangible Operational Assets Finite Life Intangible Assets
Recovery Test If undiscounted sum of future cash flows is less than book value an impairment loss is indicated Fair Value Test The measurement of the impairment loss is the book value less the fair value

24 Fair Value Market value if there is a market
Fair value estimate if there is no market Present value of the estimated future cash flows

25 Indefinite Life Intangible Assets
Should be tested for impairment at least annually Impairment loss Book value exceeds fair value

26 Goodwill Should be tested for impairment at least annually
Impairment loss Book value of the reporting unit exceeds its implied fair value

27 Operational Assets Held for Sale
Impairment when classified as held for sale Impairment loss Book value exceeds fair value less cost of disposal

28 Expenditures Subsequent to Acquisition
Repairs and Maintenance Expensed as incurred Additions Capitalized and depreciated over remaining service life Improvements Rearrangements Capitalized if they increase future benefits

29 Cost of Defending Intangible Rights
Successful defense is capitalized and amortized over remaining service life Unsuccessful defense is expensed
