Cost Issues
Deskin Company purchased a new machine to be used in its operations. The new machine was delivered by the supplier, installed by Deskin, and placed into operation. It was purchased under a long-term payment plan for which the interest charges approximated the prevailing market rates. The estimated useful life of the new machine is 10 years, and its estimated residual (salvage) value is significant. Normal maintenance was performed to keep the new machine in usable condition.
Deskin also added a wing to the manufacturing building that it owns. The addition is an integral part of the building. Furthermore, Deskin made significant leasehold improvements to office space used as corporate headquarters.
Required:
- 1. What costs should Deskin capitalize for the new machine?
- 2. Explain how Deskin should account for the normal maintenance performed on the new machine.
- 3. Explain how Deskin should account for the wing added to the manufacturing building. Where should the added wing be reported on Deskin’s financial statements?
- 4. Explain how Deskin should account for the leasehold improvements made to its office space. Where should the leasehold improvements be reported on Deskin’s financial statements?

Dell is considering replacing one of its material handling systems. The old system was purchased 7 years agofor $130,000 and was depreciated as MACRS-GDS 5-year property since the system is used in the manufactureof electronic components. It has an annual O&M cost of $48,000, a remaining operational life of 8 years, and anestimated salvage value of $6,000 at that time. A new system can be purchased for $175,000. It will be worth$50,000 in 8 years, and it will have annual O&M costs of only $17,000 per year due to new technology. If thenew system is purchased, the old system will be traded in for $55,000, even though the old system can be sold536 CHAPTER 11 / REPLACEMENT ANALYSISfor only $45,000 on the open market. Leasing a new system will cost $31,000 per year, payable at the beginningof the year, plus operating costs of $15,000 per year payable at year-end. If the new system is leased, theexisting material handling system will be sold for its market value of $45,000.Use an…
A current asset (defender) is being evaluated for potential replacement. It was purchased four years ago at a cost of $62,000. It has been depreciated as a MACRS (GDS) five-year property-class asset. The present MV of the defender is $12,000. Its remaining useful life is estimated to be four years, but it will require additional repair work now (a one-time $4,000 expense) to provide continuing service equivalent to the challenger. The current effective income tax rate is 39%, and the after-tax MARR = 15% per year. Based on an outsider viewpoint, what is the after-tax initial investment in the defender if it is kept (not replaced now)?
Power to a remote transmitting station is provided by a Diesel-generator unit. The original cost of
the unit is 65,000. It costs 2,000 to ship the unit to the job site. An additional cost of 3,000 was incurred for installation.
(a) Determine the annual depreciation cost by the sinking fund method, if the unit has an
expected life of 10 years. The salvage value of the unit at the end of its life was estimated at
5000.
(b) Determine the annual depreciation cost by the sinking fund method. Assume that the annual
charge for depreciation was deposited in a fund drawing compound interest at the rate of 5%.

- IMPACT OF IMPROVEMENTS AND REPLACEMENTS ON THE CALCULATION OF DEPRECIATION On January 1, 20-1, Dans Demolition purchased two jackhammers for 2,500 each with a salvage value of 100 each and estimated useful lives of four years. On January 1, 20-2, a stronger blade to improve performance was installed in Jackhammer A for 800 cash and the compressor was replaced in Jackhammer B for 200 cash.
