Shelton Co. purchased a parcel of land six years ago for $877,500. At that time, the firm invested $149,000 in grading the site

so that it would be usable. Since the firm wasn't ready to use the site itself at that time, it decided to lease the land for $56,000 a year. The company is now considering building a warehouse on the site as the rental lease is expiring. The current value of the land is $929,000. What value should be included in the initial cost of the warehouse project for the use of this land?

Answer:

The company should recognise $929,000 as the cost the land as this the fair value as at the date when management considers to build the warehouse.

Explanation:

Cost at date of purchase of land

The inital cost of the land is $1,026,500 (cost + grading cost); and since it was leased out, it will be accounted for in line with IAS 40 (Investment Property) to earn investment income (i.e. lease income).

Measurement of Investment property

An investment property can be measured at cost or fair value. The question didn't say that the land was depreciated, hence its assumed that it was measured at fair vale.  

Measurement at date of commencement of constructing the warehouse

IAS 40 permits transferring investment property (e.g the land) to owner occupied property (i.e. the warehouse). Hence in determining the value of the land at this date we have measure the value in line with IFRS 13 (Fair Value Measurement).

Since we know the current market value of the asset at this date as $929,000. This would be recognised as the cost of the land.

To increase productivity, your project team has completed the task to develop potential ideas for approval by senior management.
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer and Explanation:

A lot of the information and suggestions in this section assume a staff of at least five or six members, which is the number at which sustaining internal communication can become particularly difficult. This is not meant to imply that smaller organizations don't have internal communication needs, or that the need for good internal communication is any less in an organization with three staff members than in one with 30. If your staff is larger than one, internal communication is an issue that you can't afford to ignore. Most of the material that follows is relevant to small organizations as well as large ones. This section will help you establish an atmosphere and set up systems that will lead to good internal communication and to the effectiveness of your organization.

Exercise 11-6 Net present value LO P3 A new operating system for an existing machine is expected to cost $520,000 and have a use
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

NPV of investment 1: $509,131

NPV of investment 2: $269,513

Explanation:

initial investment -$520,000

6 year useful life, depreciation per year = ($520,000 - $10,000) / 6 = $85,000

free cash flow per year = $150,000 + $85,000 = $235,000

free cash flow last year = $235,00 + $10,000 = $245,000

NPV = -$520,000 + $235,000/1.1 + $235,000/1.1² + $235,000/1.1³ + $235,000/1.1⁴ + $235,000/1.1⁵ + $245,000/1.1⁶ = -$520,000 + $213,636 + $194,215 + $176,559 + $160,508 + $145,917 + $138,296 = $509,131

initial investment -$380,000

8 year useful life, depreciation per year = ($380,000 - $20,000) / 6 = $60,000

free cash flow per year = $60,000 + $60,000 = $120,000

free cash flow last year = $120,00 + $20,000 = $140,000

NPV = -$380,000 + $120,000/1.1 + $120,000/1.1² + $120,000/1.1³ + $120,000/1.1⁴ + $120,000/1.1⁵ + $120,000/1.1⁶ + $120,000/1.1⁷ + $140,000/1.1⁸= -$380,000 + $109,091 + $99,174 + $90,158 + $81,962 + $74,501 + $67,737 + $61,579 + $65,311 = $269,513

In 2020, Mowchan Inc. acquired Sanchez Co. and recorded goodwill of $290 million as a result. The net assets (including goodwill
Stels [109]

Answer:

$170 million

Explanation:

First we must calculate the implied fair value of goodwill:

fair value of goodwill = Sanchez's fair value - Sanchez's asset valuation = $1,020 million - $900 million = $120 million

impairment loss = recorded goodwill - fair value of goodwill = $290 million - $120 million = $170 million

An impairment loss is a loss generated by the decline of an asset's fair value.
