Module 8 Capital Assets/Fixed Assets
Amortization Cost Useful life
Straight Line Method Straight-line amortization expense Cost – Estimated salvage value = Estimated useful life
Example A piece of shoe-inspection machinery is purchased on January 1, 2008. The relevant data is as follows: Cost $10,000 Estimated salvage value 1,000 Cost to be amortized $9,000 Estimated useful life: Accounting periods 5 years Units inspected 36,000 shoes
Example: Straight-Line Method Straight-line amortization expense Cost – Estimated salvage value = Estimated useful life $10,000 – $1,000 = 5 years = $1,800/ year
Example: Straight-Line Method The annual adjusting entry to record amortization on this equipment would be: Amortization Expense, equipment 1,800 Accumulated Amortization, –equipment 1,800
Units-of-Production Method Amortization per unit Cost – Estimated salvage value = Total estimated units of production Annual amortization expense Actual production Amortization per unit = x
Example: Units-of-Production Method $10,000 – $1,000 Amortization per unit (shoe) = 36,000 units (shoes) = $.25/shoe Assume actual production is as follows: 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 Units (shoes) 7,000 8,000 9,000 7,000 6,000 x.25 x.25 x.25 x.25 x.25 Amortization $1,750 $2,000 $2,250 $1,750 $1,250* *Maximum amortization allowed since 36,000 units have been produced.
Example: Double-Declining-Balance Method Rate = 2 / 5 years x 100% = 40% per year
Changes in Estimated Useful Life and/or Estimated Salvage Value
Changes in Estimated Useful Life and/or Estimated Salvage Value • Example: Straight-line Method Revised amortization for remaining years Remaining book value Revised salvage value = Revised remaining useful life
Natural Resources Natural resources are amortized based on units extracted or depleted. Amortization per unit Cost – Estimated salvage value = Total units of capacity Amortization expense Units extracted Amortization per unit = x
