Document Summary

Acquisition cost: original cost, cost to acquire asset. Includes: purchase price, taxes paid at time of purchase (ex: sales tax, transportation charges, installation costs. Acquisition costs should not include expenditures unrelated to acquisitions (repair damages) and costs incurred after installation. Usually, companies buy several assets which in most cases is land and the building situated within it. The purchase price should be allocated between land and building based on proportion of their fair market values. Interest on constructed assets is added to the asset account (ex: borrowing money to finance construction, interest wouldn"t be considered an expense) The amount of interest that is capitalized (treated as asset) is based on average accumulated expenditures. Costs that are related to land but have a limited life. 3 methods of depreciation: straight line, units-of-production, and accelerate methods. Method of depreciation where costs of an asset are allocated evenly over time. Book value: the original cost of the asset minus the accumulated depreciation.
