Property, Plant, and Equipmentand Intangible Assets: Utilization
The matching principle requires that part of the acquisition cost of property, plant, and equipment and
intangible assets be expensed in periods when the future revenues are earned.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization are cost allocation processes used to help meet the
matching principle requirements.

Caution! Depreciation, depletion, and amortizationare processes of cost allocation, not valuation!

Topic #2: Depreciation Methods
• Text pages 560-564• Example: Exercise 11-1 (page 598)

Exercise 11-1 (page 598)
Depreciation Methods
11 - 7
ESTIMATED service life
ESTIMATED residual value
• Changes in estimates are accounted for prospectively.
• The book value less any residual value at the date of change is depreciated over the remaining useful life.
• A disclosure note should describe the effect of a change.
Topic #3a: Changes in Estimates
11 - 8
Topic # 3b: Change in Write-Off Method
We account for these changes prospectively, exactly as we would any other change in estimate.
A change in depreciation, amortization, or depletion method is considered a change in accounting estimate

Example: Exercise 11-20 (page 602)Exercise 11-20: Change in Depreciation Method
original cost 2,560,000 acc depr to end of 2010 (1,801,000) sub-total 759,000 residual value (160,000) remainder to be depreciated 599,000
remaining life 3 years
annual straight-line depr amount 199,667

Topic #3c: Error Correction
Errors found in a subsequent accounting period are corrected by . . .
Entries that restate the
incorrect account balances to the correct amount.
Restating the prior period’s
financial statements.
Reporting the correction as a
prior period adjustment to Beginning R/E.
In addition, a disclosure note is needed to describe the nature of the error and the impact of its correction on net income,
income before extraordinary items, and earnings per share.

Topic #4: Testing for “Impairment”
• What is the difference between “allocation methods” and “impairment write-offs”??
• When to test for impairment?–See list on page 581
11 - 12
4a) Impairment Test for Finite-life Assets to be Held and Used
An asset is impaired when . . .
The undiscounted sum of its estimated future cash flows
Measurement – Step 1 (recoverability test)
Itsbookvalue
<
11 - 13
Impairmentloss =
Bookvalue
Fairvalue–
Market value, price of similar assets,or PV of future net cash inflows.
Reported as partof income from
continuing operations.
Measurement Step 2: Is only taken if Step 1 “signals” impairment
11 - 14
Examples of the Two Step Process Re: Impairment Measurement
• On your own: review Illustr. 11-9 on page 582• We will do Exercise 11-24 (page 602)• Step #1:
– Future cash flows compared to book value– $15 million is less than $18.3 million – yes, there is
impairment– Go to Step #2
• Step #2:– Compare market value to book value– $11 million is less than $18.3 = $7.3 million loss
11 - 15
Exercise 11-24 (concluded)
• Journal Entry:– Loss on Impair 7.3 million– Acc Depr 14.2 million – Plant assets 21.5 millionNote: new book value = $11 million = fair value
• Requirement 5• Step #1:
– Future cash flows compared to book value– $19 million is greater than $18.3 million – no, there is
no impairment– Do not go to Step #2
11 - 16
4b) Impairment Testing forAssets Held for Sale (not in use)
• Assets that management intends to sell in their existing condition
• The two-step process is NOT used• Impairment loss is measured by comparing:
– Book value, and – Fair value (less cost to sell, if any)
11 - 17
Step 2 Loss = BV of goodwill less implied value
of goodwill.
Goodwill
Step 1 If BV of reporting unit is less than its FV, impairment is indicated.
