Explanation / Answer

9.

If a plant asset is retired before it is fully depreciated, then Cost is greater than the Accumulated depreciation. As no salvage value is received, the retairment results in loss on disposal.

The answer is B.

10.

Book value = Cost - Accumulated depreciation

= 210,000 - 84,000

= 126,000

Loss on sale = Book value - Sale value

= 126,000 - 70,000

= 56,000

The answer is C.

11.

Book value = Cost - Accumulated depreciation

= 21,000 - 10,000

= 11,000

Loss on sale = Book value - Sale value

= 11,000 - 9,000

= 2,000

The answer is B.

12.

Book value = Cost - Accumulated depreciation

= 360,000 - 144,000

= 216,000

Loss on sale = Book value - Sale value

= 216,000 - 120,000

= 96,000

The answer is C.

13.

Interest = 100,000 * 8% * 90/360 = 2,000

The answer is C.
