Question: The Buildings account of Postera Inc. includes the following items that were used in determining the basis for depreciating the cost of a building.

Organization and promotion expenses. (b) Architect鈥檚 fees. (c) Interest and taxes during construction. (d) Interest revenue on investments held to fund construction of a building. Do you agree with these charges? If not, how would you deal with each of the items above in the corporation鈥檚 books and in its annual financial statements?

(Analysis of Subsequent Expenditures) Plant assets often require expenditures subsequent to acquisition. It is important that they be accounted for properly. Any errors will affect both the balance sheets and income statements for a number of years.

Instructions

For each of the following items, indicate whether the expenditure should be capitalized (C) or expensed (E) in the period incurred.

  1. __________ Improvement.
  2. __________ Replacement of a minor broken part on a machine.
  3. __________ Expenditure that increases the useful life of an existing asset.
  4. __________ Expenditure that increases the efficiency and effectiveness of a productive asset but does not increase its salvage value.
  5. __________ Expenditure that increases the efficiency and effectiveness of a productive asset and increases the asset鈥檚 salvage value.
  6. __________ Expenditure that increases the quality of the output of the productive asset.
  7. __________ Improvement to a machine that increased its fair market value and its production capacity by 30% without extending the machine鈥檚 useful life.
  8. __________ Ordinary repairs.

(Accounting for Self-Constructed Assets) Troopers Medical Labs, Inc., began operations 5 years ago producing stetrics, a new type of instrument it hoped to sell to doctors, dentists, and hospitals. The demand for stetrics far exceeded initial expectations, and the company was unable to produce enough stetrics to meet demand.

The company was manufacturing its product on equipment that it built at the start of its operations. To meet demand, more efficient equipment was needed. The company decided to design and build the equipment, because the equipment currently available on the market was unsuitable for producing stetrics.

In 2017, a section of the plant was devoted to development of the new equipment and a special staff was hired. Within 6 months, a machine developed at a cost of \(714,000 increased production dramatically and reduced labor costs substantially. Elated by the success of the new machine, the company built three more machines of the same type at a cost of \)441,000 each.

Instructions

a. In general, what costs should be capitalized for self-constructed equipment?

b. Discuss the propriety of including in the capitalized cost of self-constructed assets:

(1) The increase in overhead caused by the self-construction of fixed assets.

(2) A proportionate share of overhead on the same basis as that applied to goods manufactured for sale.

c. Discuss the proper accounting treatment of the \(273,000 (\)714,000 鈭 $441,000) by which the cost of the first machine exceeded the cost of the subsequent machines. This additional cost should not be considered research and development costs.

To what extent do you consider the following items to be proper costs of the fixed asset? Give reasons for your opinions.

  1. Overhead of a business that builds its own equipment.
  2. Cash discounts on purchases of equipment.
  3. Interest paid during the construction of a building.
  4. Cost of a safety device installed on a machine.
  5. Freight on equipment returned before installation, for replacement by other equipment of greater capacity.
  6. Cost of moving machinery to a new location.
  7. Cost of plywood partitions erected as part of the remodeling of the office.
  8. Replastering of a section of the building.
  9. Cost of a new motor for one of the trucks.
