Tan Chin Company purchases a building for \(11,300,000 on January 2, 2017. An engineer’s report shows that of the total purchase price, \)11,000,000 should be allocated to the building (with a 40-year life), \(150,000 to 15-year property, and \)150,000 to 5-year property. No residual (salvage) value should be considered. Compute depreciation expense for 2017 using component depreciation.

(Depreciation Computations—Five Methods, Partial Periods) Muggsy Bogues Company purchased equipment for \(212,000 on October 1, 2017. It is estimated that the equipment will have a useful life of 8 years and a salvage value of \)12,000. Estimated production is 40,000 units and estimated working hours are 20,000. During 2017, Bogues uses the equipment for 525 hours and the equipment produces 1,000 units.

Instructions

Compute depreciation expense under each of the following methods. Bogues is on a calendar-year basis ending December 31.

  1. Straight-line method for 2017.
  2. Activity method (units of output) for 2017.
  3. Activity method (working hours) for 2017.
  4. Sum-of-the-years’-digits method for 2019.
  5. Double-declining-balance method for 2018.

  1. Asset turnover.
  2. Return on assets.
  3. Profit margin on sales.
  4. How can the asset turnover be used to compute the return on assets?

(Depreciation Computation—Addition, Change in Estimate) In 1990, Herman Moore Company completed the construction of a building at a cost of \(2,000,000 and first occupied it in January 1991. It was estimated that the building will have a useful life of 40 years and a salvage value of \)60,000 at the end of that time.

Early in 2001, an addition to the building was constructed at a cost of \(500,000. At that time, it was estimated that the remaining life of the building would be, as originally estimated, an additional 30 years and that the addition would have a life of 30 years and a salvage value of \)20,000.

In 2019, it is determined that the probable life of the building and addition will extend to the end of 2050, or 20 years beyond the original estimate.

Instructions

  1. Using the straight-line method, compute the annual depreciation that would have been charged from 1991 through 2000.
  2. Compute the annual depreciation that would have been charged from 2001 through 2018.
  3. Prepare the entry, if necessary, to adjust the account balances because of the revision of the estimated life in 2019.
  4. Compute the annual depreciation to be charged, beginning with 2019.

(Depletion Computations—Timber) Stanislaw Timber Company owns 9,000 acres of timberland purchased in 2006 at a cost of \(1,400 per acre. At the time of purchase, the land without the timber was valued at \)400 per acre. In 2007, Stanislaw built fire lanes and roads, with a life of 30 years, at a cost of \(84,000. Every year, Stanislaw sprays to prevent disease at a cost of \)3,000 per year and spends \(7,000 to maintain the fire lanes and roads. During 2008, Stanislaw selectively logged and sold 700,000 board feet of timber of the estimated 3,500,000 board feet. In 2009, Stanislaw planted new seedlings to replace the trees cut at a cost of \)100,000.

Instructions

  1. Determine the depreciation expense and the cost of timber sold related to depletion for 2008.
  2. Stanislaw has not logged since 2008. If Stanislaw logged and sold 900,000 board feet of timber in 2019, when the timber cruise (appraiser) estimated 5,000,000 board feet, determine the cost of timber sold related to depletion for 2019.

(Depletion Computations—Minerals) At the beginning of 2017, Aristotle Company acquired a mine for \(970,000. Of this amount, \)100,000 was ascribed to the land value and the remaining portion to the minerals in the mine. Surveys conducted by geologists have indicated that approximately 12,000,000 units of ore appear to be in the mine. Aristotle incurred \(170,000 of development costs associated with this mine prior to any extraction of minerals. It also determined that the fair value of its obligation to prepare the land for an alternative use when all of the mineral has been removed was \)40,000. During 2017, 2,500,000 units of ore were extracted and 2,100,000 of these units were sold.

Instructions

Compute the following.

  1. The total amount of depletion for 2017.
  2. The amount that is charged as an expense for 2017 for the cost of the minerals sold during 2017.
