Explanation / Answer

Answer for 1)

My answer would be option(c).

Any replacement or repair which is done must increase the life of the asset to get capitalized.Otherwise,we cannot call it as Capital expenditure.But painting the company logo on the vehicle maybe compulsory like MC Donald door delivery vehicles and hence,it can be considered as Capital Expenditure.

Answer for 2)

My answer is option(d).

As cost of installation of new machinery and sales tax paid will be capitalized and balance on sale of land is not repair or maintainance.

Answer for 3)

My answer is option (c).

Here,no value is given and hence it must be done proportionately.

Cost of land to be allocated:

$150000×$525000/($150000+$375000+$75000)

$131250.

Answer for 4)

My answer is option(b)

Depreciation for the year:

(purchase price-salvage value)/estimated life of asset

($77500-$5500)/9year=$8000

Answer for 5)

My answer is option(a)

Accumulated depreciation till January 1st 2021:

No. Of years completed×annual depreciation

=4year(year1:2017,year2:2018,year3:2019,year4:2020)×$8000

=$32000

Answer for 6)

My answer is option(c)

This how it is calculated:[($77500-$5500)/9 years]×1/2

=$4000

As per mid year convention depreciation will be recognises only from the half year and another half will be cosidered till 30-06-2026 instead of 20-03-2026.
