Explanation of Solution

Long term Assets: Long term assets are assets that can be held for a longer period of time and cannot be easily converted to cash. They are also known as non-current assets. The long term asset includes the property, plant and equipment, long term investments and intangible assets.

Explanation for the incorrect answer:

a. Cost of the asset only. Long term assets are initially recorded at its cost plus all the expenditures that are necessary to get the asset ready for use. Thus, the long term assets are not recorded at the cost of the asset. Hence, this is incorrect option.

c. Appraised value. Appraised value is an assessment of a property’s value based on a given point of time and thus, appraised value is not recorded as the cost of the asset. Hence, this is incorrect option.

d. Cost of the asset, but subsequently adjust it up or down to appraised value. Long term assets are recorded at its cost plus all the expenditures that are necessary to get the asset ready for use. Hence, this is incorrect option.

Explanation for the correct answer:

b. Cost of the asset plus all costs necessary to get the asset ready for use. Long-term assets are initially recorded at its cost plus all the expenditures that are necessary to get the asset ready for use. The initial cost of the Long term asset might be more than the purchase price. The long term assets also include additional amounts which are paid by the firm, to bring the asset to its desired condition and location for use. Hence, this is correct option.
