Quayle Company acquired machinery on January 1, 1999 which it depreciated under the straight-line method with an estimated life of fifteen years and no salvage value. On January 1, 2004, Quayle estimated that the remaining life of this machinery was six years with no salvage value. How should this change be accounted for by Quayle? a. As a prior period adjustment b. By setting future annual depreciation equal to one-sixth of the book value on January 1, 2004 c. As the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in 2004 d. By continuing to depreciate the machinery over the original fifteen year life 24. If there has been an event indicating that a fixed asset may be impaired, then: a. None of these. b. No further impairment testing is necessary. c. The net book value of the asset should be compared to it's fair value and an impairment recorded if the net book value exceeds the assets fair value. d. An undiscounted cash flow analysis should be performed.

20 Winter 2007 Final v. 2--Page Minefordollars, Inc. just spent $100,000 searching for a new site to drill for oil. The site they found was then explored by geologists and other specialists to estimate the quantity of oil in the ground, which cost another $50,000. The purchase price of the property, including mineral rights is $2,000,000 and Minefordollars determined that this price is too high based upon the estimated quantity of oil in the ground, and consequently, will not purchase the property. What is the amount which should be capitalized in connection with this project? a. $0 b. $2,150,000 c. $50,000 d. $150, Wedrill, Inc. spent $100,000 searching for a new site to drill for oil. The site they found was then explored by geologists and other specialists to estimate the quantity of oil in the ground, who drilled 10 deep exploratory wells, at a cost of $10,000 each. They decided that the estimated 25,000 barrels of oil at the site justified the purchase of the land and mineral rights for $300,000. Only the 5th well will be used and they spent an estimated $10,000 total for all) to fill-in the other 9 holes. They spent $250,000 purchasing pumping equipment, and $20,000 installing the equipment. They estimate that when they have fully depleted the oil at the site, they will incur an additional $140,000 in restoration costs for the property, at which time they can sell the land for $200, 000 (salvage value). (I) Compute the amount which should be capitalized on the balance sheet for this project based upon the facts above at the time that they commence drilling. (II) Compute the basis for depletion, net of estimated salvage value. (III) Assuming that in year 1 they pump out 5,000 barrels, in year 2 they pump out 12,500 barrels and in year 3 they pump out 5,000 barrels, what is the depletion expense in years 1, 2 and 3? (IV) Now assume that after the activity in III above, in year 4, they determine that there are still an estimated 10,000 barrels in the ground and they pump out 5,000 of them (5,000 estimate remaining at the end of the year). What amount of depletion expense should be recorded in year 4?

(3) Compute the avoidable interest during 2006 and indicate how much of that should be capitalized.

Drew Anderson purchases equipment with the following relevant information: Historical Cost 505,000 Salvage value 5,000 Estimated service life 5 years Compute the depreciation expense which Drew should record for each of the 5 years of the life of the asset for each of the following methods: a. Straight-Line b. Sum of the years digits (II) AAssume that in year four, it is determined that the estimated life is extended from 5 to 9 years from acquisition and a salvage value of zero. Also assume that the straight line method has been, and will continue to be used. What is the appropriate amount of depreciation expense to be reported in years 3, 4 and 5?
