Nature of Fixed Assets Fixed assets are long-term, relatively permanent, tangible assets such as buildings and equipment used to help produce revenues. ASSETS LIABILITIES OWNER’S EQUITY Fixed Assets REVENUES EXPENSES
Nature of Fixed Assets Fixed assets are long-term, relatively permanent, tangible assets such as buildings and equipment used to help producerevenues. ASSETS LIABILITIES OWNER’S EQUITY Fixed Assets All fixed assets except land lose their capacity to provide services. This loss of productive capacity is recognized as depreciation expense. REVENUES EXPENSES
Costs of Acquiring Fixed Assets Include: • Sales tax and freight costs • Installation and assembling • Repairs and reconditioning (used assets) • Testing and modifying • Insurance while asset is in transit
Costs of Acquiring Fixed Assets Exclude: • Vandalism and uninsured theft • Mistakes in installation • Damage during unpacking and installing

Depreciation Methods The following four depreciation methods are acceptable for Financial Accounting purposes: 1. Straight-Line 2. Units-of-Production 3. Declining-Balance 4. Sum-of-Years-Digits Straight-line is far more widely used than other methods. Declining-balance and sum-of-years-digits are known as accelerated depreciation methods.

Accounting for Fixed Asset Disposals When fixed assets lose their usefulness they may be disposed of in one of the following ways: 1. discarded, 2. sold, or 3. traded (exchanged) for similar assets. Required entries will vary with type of disposition and circumstances, but the following entries will always be necessary: Asset accountmustbecreditedtoremovetheassetfromthe ledger, and the related Accumulated Depreciation account must be debited to remove its balance from the ledger.
Discarding Fixed Assets Date Description Debit Credit Accumulated Depreciation 25,000 Equipment 25,000 Loss on Disposal of Equipment 1,100 Accumulated Depreciation 4,900 Equipment 6,000 Feb. 14 Write off fully depreciated equipment. Mar. 24 Write off partially depreciated equipment.
Sale of Fixed Assets When fixed assets are sold, the owner may break even, sustain a loss, or realize a gain. 1. If the sale price is equal to book value, there will be no gain or loss. 2. If the sale price is less than book value, there will be a loss equal to the difference. 3. If the sale price is more than book value, there will be a gain equal to the difference. Gain or loss will be reported in the income statement as Other Income or Other Loss.
Sale of Fixed Assets Sold equipment with a book value of $2,250 (cost $10,000, accumulated depreciation $7,750). Cash 1,000 Loss on Disposal of Equipment 1,250 Accumulated Depreciation 7,750 Equipment 10,000 Cash 2,800 Accumulated Depreciation 7,750 Equipment 10,000 Gain on Disposal of Equipment 550 Date Description Debit Credit Oct. 12 Sold below book value, for $1,000. Oct. 12 Sold above book value, for $2,800.
Exchanges of Similar Fixed Assets • Trade-in Allowance (TIA) – amount allowed for old equipment toward the purchase price of similar new assets. • Boot – balance owed on new equipment after trade-in allowance has been deducted. • TIA > Book Value = Gain on Trade • TIA < Book Value = Loss on Trade • Gains are never recognized (not recorded). • Lossesmust be recognized (recorded).
Exchanges of Similar Fixed Assets Quoted price of new equipment acquired $15,000 Cost of old equipment traded in $12,500 Accum. depreciation at date of exchange 10,100 Book value at date of exchange $ 2,400 Case One (GAIN) Trade-in allowance, $3,000 Cash paid, $12,000 ($15,000 – $3,000) TIA > Book Value = Gain $3,000 – $2,400 = $600 Boot + Book = Cost of New Equipment $12,000 + $2,400 = $14,400 Gains are not recognized for financial reporting.
