6. Accounting for Self-Constructed Assets : Shanette Medical Laboratory, Inc., began operations 5 years ago
producing meditrics, a new type of instrument it hoped to sell to doctors, dentists, and hospitals. The demand for
meditrics far exceeded initial expectations, and the company was unable to produce enough meditrics to meet demand.
The company was manufacturing its product on equipment that it built at the start of its operations. To meet demand, more
efficient equipment was needed. The company decided to design and build the equipment, because the equipment currently
available on the market was unsuitable for producing meditrics.
In 2004, a section of the plant was devoted to development of the new equipment and a special staff was hired. Within 6
months a machine developed incurring the following costs:
Research, modifications of blueprints and designs 10,000
Labor directly related to the development of the new equipment 250,000
Total cost of materials utilized in the new equipment 300,000
Total factory overhead for the last 6 months of 2003 1,650,000
Total factory overhead for the 6 months of development of new equipment 1,840,000
75% of Direct
Applied factory overhead on production Labor
The new equipment has increased production dramatically and reduced labor costs substantially. Elated by the success of
the new machine, the company built three more machines of the same type at a cost of ₱441,000 each.
Required:
(a) Compute for the cost that should be capitalized for self-constructed equipment using the following assumptions for the
overhead:
(1) The increase in overhead caused by the self-construction of fixed assets.
(2) A proportionate share of overhead on the same basis as that applied to goods manufactured
for sale.
(b) What is the proper accounting treatment of the excess by which the cost
of the first machine exceeded the cost of the
subsequent machines?
Required: For each of the following items, indicate whether the expenditure should be capitalized or expensed in the period
incurred.
a. Improvement.
b. Replacement of a minor broken part on a machine.
c. Expenditure that increases the useful life of an existing asset.
d. Expenditure that increases the efficiency and effectiveness of a productive asset but does not increase its salvage
value.
e. Expenditure that increases the efficiency and effectiveness of a productive asset and in- creases the asset’s salvage
value.
f. Expenditure that increases the quality of the output of the productive asset.
g. Improvement to a machine that increased its fair market value and its production capacity by 30% without
extending the machine’s useful life.
h. Ordinary repairs.
i. Interest on borrowing necessary to finance a major overhaul of machinery. The overhaul extended the life of the
machinery.
Required: Indicate how each of these transactions would be recorded in the accounting records.

PROBLEMS
Problem 1: Exploration and evaluation. Lepanto Mining Corporation acquired a drilling rig to be used for drilling of core
samples for the purpose of analysis as part of exploration and evaluation activities in a new are (Bakugan Barangay) it has
