I.A.S (issued at 1 January 2012)
The International Accounting Standards Board is the independent, accounting standard-setting body of the IFRS Foundation. The IASB was founded on April 1, 2001 as the successor to the International Accounting Standards Committee. ..
Objectives of I.A.S (16)
• The objective of this Standard is to prescribe the accounting treatment for property, plant and equipment.
• Users of the financial statements can discern information about an entity’s investment in its property, plant and equipment and the changes in such investment.
Assets
Definition: An asset is an economic resource.
Anything tangible or intangible that is capable of being owned or controlled to produce value and that is held to have positive economic value is considered an asset.
Types of Assets
Following are two types of assets.
• Current Assets Current assets are cash and other assets expected to be
converted to cash or consumed in a year.
• Fixed Assets Fixed Assets include property, plant, and equipment etc.
These are purchased for continued and long-term use in earning profit in a business
Types of Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are of two types:• Tangible Assets
Tangible assets are those that have a physical substance, such as, building, real estate, vehicles, equipment, and precious metals.
• Intangible AssetsIntangible assets lack of physical substance and usually are very hard to evaluate. They include patents, copyrights, franchises, goodwill, trademarks, trade names, etc
The Principal Issues in Accounting for Fixed Assets
• Recognition of the Assets
• Measurement of Recognition
• Impairment Losses
• Depreciation
Issues
Recognition of the Assets
GUIDELINES
The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment shall be recognized as an asset if;
• It is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the entity.
• The cost of the item can be measured reliably.

Measurement of Recognition
GUIDELINES
• An item of property, plant and equipment that qualifies for recognition as an asset shall be measured at its cost.
• The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment is the cash price equivalent at the recognition date.
Cont…
• If payment is deferred beyond normal credit terms, the difference between the cash price equivalent and the total payment is recognized as interest over the period of credit unless such interest is capitalized in accordance with IAS 23.
Cost Includes…
• Purchase price
• Import duties
• Non-refundable purchase taxes
• Any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset in workable condition.
• The initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located.
Measurement After Recognition
An entity shall choose either the cost model or the revaluation model as its
accounting policy and shall apply that policy to an entire class of property, plant and equipment.
Models
RevaluationCost
Models
Cost Model: After recognition as an asset, an item of property, plant
and equipment shall be carried at its cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.
Revaluation Model: A fixed Asset, whose fair value can be measured reliably
shall be carried at a revalued amount, being its fair value at the date of the revaluation

Impairment Losses
Impairment Loss
Definition:
An impaired asset is a condition in which an asset's market value falls below its carrying amount and is not expected to recover. ...
GUIDELINES
To determine whether an item of property, plant and equipment is impaired, an entity applies IAS 36 Impairment of Assets.
The carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment shall be derecognized:
(a) on disposal; or
(b) When no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal

Depreciation
Depreciation is the gradual permanent decrease in the value of an asset from any cause.
Internal
Wear and Tear
Depletion
Types of Depreciation
• Depreciation
• Amortization
• Depletion
Methods of Depreciation
1. Straight Line Method
2. Diminishing Balance Method
3. Units of Production Method
4. Annuity Depreciation
5. Sum of year digits Method
6. Units of time depreciation
7. Group depreciation Method
8. Composite Depreciation Method

Straight Line Method
An equal portion of the initial cost of the asset is allocated to each period of use.
Depreciation = Cost of Asset – Estimated Residual Value
Estimated Useful Economic Life
Example :
Annual charge for depreciation
= 240-0 3= $80
Year Opening Balance of Asset Depreciation Expense
123
$240 160 80
$80 80 80
Totals $240
Original Cost=$240Scrap Value =$0Expected Life=3 Years
Declining / Diminishing Balance Method
• Declining balance is an accelerated depreciation method. Higher depreciation is charged in early years and smaller amounts in later years.
• Revenues may be higher in early years, declining in later years as efficiency falls. So, according to matching principle depreciation should decline with benefits.
Formula:
Annual Depreciation = Net Book Value * Depreciation Rate
= (Cost – Accumulated Depreciation) * Depreciation Rate
Example
Year Rate Depreciation Expense

Total $15000
Original Cost=$18000Scrap Value =$3000Expected Life =5 years
Annual Depreciation :
Units of Production & Service hours Method
• This method depreciate assets in proportion to their actual use rather than as a function with the passage of time.
• This method require an initial estimate of the total number of units of output or service hours expected over the life of the machine.
Formula:• Rate /Service hour=Cost /Exp service hour• Rate/Unit =Cost/Exp Unit of output
Units of Production Method (Example)
• Rate Per unit for Depreciation
=18000-3000/60000
=$0.25 /unit
Original Cost=$18000Scrap Value =$3000Expected Output=60000
Years Units of output Depreciation Net Book Value
