Most popular questions from this chapter

(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’s 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’s useful life.
  8. __________ Ordinary repairs.

Question: Two positions have normally been taken with respect to the recording of fixed manufacturing overhead as an element of the cost of plant assets constructed by a company for its own use: (a) It should be excluded completely. (b) It should be included at the same rate as is charged to normal operations.

What are the circumstances or rationale that support or deny the application of these methods?

(Interest During Construction) Grieg Landscaping began construction of a new plant on December 1, 2017. On this date, the company purchased a parcel of land for \(139,000 in cash. In addition, it paid \)2,000 in surveying costs and \(4,000 for a title insurance policy. An old dwelling on the premises was demolished at a cost of \)3,000, with \(1,000 being received from the sale of materials.

Architectural plans were also formalized on December 1, 2017, when the architect was paid \)30,000. The necessary building permits costing \(3,000 were obtained from the city and paid for on December 1 as well. The excavation work began during the first week in December with payments made to the contractor in 2018 as follows.

To finance construction of this plant, Grieg borrowed \(600,000 from the bank on December 1, 2017. Grieg had no other borrowings. The \)600,000 was a 10-year loan bearing interest at 8%.

  1. Land.
