Explanation / Answer
(1) Three examples of Property, Plant and Equipment:
(a) Office Building and Office Equipment
(b) Machinery and Motor Vehicle
(c) Furniture and Fixture
(2) Copyright is an example of an intangible asset with an identifiable useful life (limited life).
(3) The land is classified separately from other tangible long-term assets because land has an infinite life. It is not consumed or worn out with use.
(4) Option(C) is correct.
Explanation: Land is considered as the tangible asset because it has a physical existence.
(5) Option(B) is correct.
Explanation: Trademark is a long-term operational asset because such assets are used for extended period of times (two or more accounting periods).
(6) Option(A) is correct.
Explanation: property, plant and equipment are fixed assets that follow the process of depreciation expense recognition.
(7) Option(A) is correct.
Explanation: Appraisal value of the property = 374000+1100000+726000 = $2,200,000
Appraisal value of building = $1,100,000
Therefore, building to be recorded = (1100000*1900000)/2200000 = $950,000
(8) Option(D) is correct.
Explanation: Value of equipment = (1900000*726000)/2200000 = $627,000
Depreciation to be recorded = [265000*(627000-34000)]/1000000 = $157,145
(9) Option(C) is correct.
Explanation: Land = 1500000+15400+133200-11000 = $1,637,600
Building = 1760000+138000 = $1,898,000
(10) Option(B) is correct.
Explanation: Book value of the equipment = (40000*380000)/(20000+340000+40000) = $38,000
Depreciation = 38000*[(1/4)*2] = 38000*50% = $19,000
