    Dear Mike,

    I have a question regarding the Mini Excercises, Chapter 5 Excess depreciation, Question 2. How do you I get to the 8,000 and the 9,000 please?

    Thank you in advance.

    Kind regards,
    Sandra

    The carrying value at date of transfer was $60,000 and it was transferred at a value of $65,000

    Disposal proceeds had been estimated at $10,000 but at date of transfer this was revised to $20,000

    The estimated remaining useful life as at date of transfer was 5 years

    IF the transfer had not taken place, S would have charged depreciation on ($60,000 – $20,000) / 5 = $8,000

    But it DID take place and P will charge depreciation on ($65,000 – $20,000) / 5 = $9,000

    OK?
