On January 1, Year 1, a company purchased equipment for $100 million. The equipment consists of four major components, of which two components comprise 80% of the total cost and each has a 20-year useful life. The remaining two components have costs of $10 million each: one of them has a useful life of four years, and the other has a useful life of five years. The company applies the cost model to the equipment and uses the straight-line method of depreciation. Under IFRS, what is the depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, Year 1?

Answer:

Total Depreciation = $ 490,000

Explanation:

Depreciation of the 1st part

Cost of 1st part=  $ 40,00,000

Useful Life = 20 years

Depreciation On Straight Line Method= d1= 40,00,000/20= $ 20,000

Depreciation of the 2nd part

Cost of 2nd part= $ 40,00,000

Useful Life = 20 years

Depreciation On Straight Line Method =d2= 40,00,000/20= $ 20,000

Depreciation of the 3rd part

Cost of 3rd part= $ 10,00,000

Useful Life = 5 years

Depreciation On Straight Line Method =d3= 10,00,000/5= $ 200,000

 

Depreciation of the 4th part

Cost of 4th part= $ 10,00,000

Useful Life = 4 years

Depreciation On Straight Line Method =d4= 10,00,000/4= $ 250,000

 

Total Depreciation = d1+ d2+ d3+ d4= 20,000 + 20,000 + 200,000 + 250,000=  $ 490,000

According to IFRS each part of an item of an equipment that is significant in relation to the total cost is depreciated separately.
