FixedAssets
All fixed assets except land lose their capacityto provide services. This loss of productive capacity is recognized as depreciation expense.
Costs of Acquiring Fixed Assets Include:
Sales tax and freight costs
Installation and assembling
Repairs and reconditioning (used assets)
Testing and modifying
Insurance while asset is in transit
Vandalism and uninsured theft
Mistakes in installation
Damage during unpacking and installing

The following four depreciation methods are acceptable for Financial Accounting purposes:1. Straight-Line2. Units-of-Production3. Declining-Balance4. Sum-of-Years-Digits
Straight-line is far more widely used than other methods.
Declining-balance and sum-of-years-digits are known as accelerated depreciation methods.

When fixed assets lose their usefulness they may be disposed of in one of the following ways:
1. discarded,2. sold, or3. traded (exchanged) for similar assets.
Required entries will vary with type of disposition and circumstances, but the following entries will always be necessary:
Asset account must be credited to remove the asset from the ledger, and the related Accumulated Depreciation account must be debited to remove its balance from the ledger.

When fixed assets are sold, the owner may break even, sustain a loss, or realize a gain.
1. If the sale price is equal to book value, there will be no gain or loss.
2. If the sale price is less than book value, there will be a loss equal to the
difference.
3. If the sale price is more than book value, there will be a gain equal to the difference.
Gain or loss will be reported in the income statement as Other Income or Other Loss.

Sold equipment with a book value of $2,250(cost $10,000, accumulated depreciation $7,750).
Exchanges of Similar Fixed Assets
Trade-in Allowance (TIA) – amount allowed for old equipment toward the purchase price of similar new assets.
Boot – balance owed on new equipment after trade-in allowance has been deducted.
TIA > Book Value = Gain on Trade TIA < Book Value = Loss on Trade Gains are never recognized (not recorded). Losses must be recognized (recorded).
Case One (GAIN)
Trade-in allowance, $3,000
Cash paid, $12,000 ($15,000 – $3,000)
TIA > Book Value = Gain
$3,000 – $2,400 = $600
Boot + Book = Cost of New Equipment
$12,000 + $2,400 = $14,400
Gains are not recognized for financial reporting.
Exchanges of Similar Fixed Assets
Quoted price of new equipment acquired $15,000
Cost of old equipment traded in $12,500Accum. depreciation at date of exchange 10,100
Book value at date of exchange $ 2,400
Exchanges of Similar Fixed Assets
Case Two (LOSS)
Trade-in allowance, $2,000
Cash paid, $13,000 ($15,000 – $2,000)
TIA < Book Value = Loss
$2,000 – $2,400 = $400
Cost of New Equipment =
Quoted Price of New Asset $15,000
Quoted price of new equipment acquired $15,000
Cost of old equipment traded in $12,500Accum. depreciation at date of exchange 10,100

Losses are recognized for financial reporting.
