The document provides illustrations of accounting for revaluation of plant assets and depletion of extractable natural resources. For revaluation of equipment, an entry is made to decrease the asset amount and increase revaluation surplus based on an appraisal. For impairment, an entry decreases the asset and increases an impairment loss expense. Depletion expense for a mine is calculated as the initial investment divided by estimated extractable resources, with an entry to record depletion as cost of goods sold.

PREVIEW OF CHAPTER 9

9-1
Revaluation of Plant Assets

Illustration: Pernice Ltd. applies revaluation to equipment purchased


on January 1, 2017, for HK$1,000,000. The equipment has a useful life
of 5 years, and no residual value. Pernice makes the following entry to
record depreciation for 2017, assuming straight-line depreciation.

Depreciation Expense 200,000


Accumulated Depreciation—Equipment 200,000

At the end of 2017, independent appraisers determine that the asset


has a fair value of HK$850,000. The entry to record the revaluation is
as follows.
Accumulated Depreciation—Equipment 200,000
Equipment 150,000
Revaluation Surplus 50,000
9-2 LO 2
Revaluation of Plant Assets

Illustration 9-18
Statement presentation of
As indicated, plant assets (equipment)
and revaluation surplus
 HK$850,000 is the new basis of the asset.
 Depreciation expense of HK$200,000 in the income statement.
 HK$50,000 in other comprehensive income.
 Assuming no change in the total useful life, depreciation in
year 2 will be HK$212,500 (HK$850,000 ÷ 4).

9-3 LO 2
Revaluation of Plant Assets

Illustration: Assume again that Pernice’s equipment has a carrying


amount of HK$800,000 (HK$1,000,000 − HK$200,000). However, at
the end of 2017, independent appraisers determine that the asset has a
fair value of HK$775,000, which results in an impairment loss of
HK$25,000 (HK$800,000 − HK$775,000). To record the equipment at
fair value and to record this loss, Pernice makes the following entry.

Accumulated Depreciation—Equipment 200,000


Impairment Loss 25,000
Equipment 225,000

The impairment loss of HK$25,000 reduces net income.

9-4 LO 2
Extractable Natural Resources

Illustration: Lane Coal Company invests HK$50 million in a mine


estimated to have 10 million tons of coal and no residual value.
In the first year, Lane extracts and sells 250,000 tons of coal.
Lane computes the depletion expense as follows:

Computation of
depletion cost per unit
HK$5.00 per ton x 250,000 tons =
HK$1,250,000 annual depletion
9-5 LO 5
Extractable Natural Resources

Illustration: Lane Coal Company invests HK$50 million in a mine


estimated to have 10 million tons of coal and no residual value.
In the first year, Lane extracts and sells 250,000 tons of coal.
Lane records the depletion as follows:

Journal entry:
Inventory (coal) 1,250,000
Accumulated Depletion 1,250,000
