Disposal of Depreciable Asset
  • If a MACRS(Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery
    System) asset is disposed of during the


    recovery period,
  • Personal property the half-year convention is
    applied to depreciation amount for the year of
    disposal.
  • Real property the mid-month convention is
    applied to the month of disposal.

Calculation of Gains or Losses on MACRS Property

Summary
The entire cost of replacing a machine cannot be
properly charged to any one years production
rather, the cost should be spread (or
capitalized) over the years in which the machine
is in service. The cost charged to operations
during a particular year is called depreciation.
From an engineering economics point of view, our
primary concern is with accounting depreciation
The systematic allocation of an assets value
over its depreciable life.
15
Accounting depreciation can be broken into two
categories 1. Book depreciationthe method of
depreciation used for financial reports and
pricing products 2. Tax depreciationthe
method of depreciation used for calculating
taxable income and income taxes it is governed
by tax legislation. The four components of
information required to calculate depreciation
are (a) cost basis, (b) salvage value, (c)
depreciable life , and (4) depreciation method.
16
  • Because it employs accelerated methods of
    depreciation and shorter-than-actual depreciable
    lives, the MACRS (Modified Accelerated Cost
    Recovery System) gives taxpayers a break It
    allows them to take earlier and faster advantage
    of the tax-deferring benefits of depreciation.
  • The total amount of taxes to pay remains
    unchanged regardless of depreciation methods
    adopted. It only changes the timing of the
    payment.
  • Many firms select straight-line depreciation for
    book depreciation because of its relative ease of
    calculation.

17
Given the frequently changing nature of
depreciation and tax law, we must use whatever
percentages, depreciable lives, and salvage
values mandated at the time an asset is acquired.
18
Component of Depreciation Book Depreciation Tax depreciation (MACRS)
Cost basis Based on the actual cost of the asset, plus all incidental costs such as freight, site preparation, installation, etc. Same as for book depreciation
Salvage value Estimated at the outset of depreciation analysis. If the final book value does not equal the estimated salvage value, we may need to make adjustments in our depreciation calculations. Salvage value is zero for all depreciable assets
19
Component of Depreciation Book Depreciation Tax depreciation (MACRS)
Depreciable life Firms may select their own estimated useful lives or follow government guidelines for asset depreciation ranges (ADRs) Eight recovery periods 3,5,7,10,15,20,27.5,or 39 years have been established all depreciable assets fall into one of these eight categories.
Method of depreciation Firms may select from the following Straight-line Accelerated methods (declining balance, double declining balance, and sum-of- years digits) Units-of-proportion Exact depreciation percentages are mandated by tax legislation but are based largely on DDB and straight-line methods. The SOYD method is rarely used in the U.S. except for some cost analysis in engineering valuation.
20
Explicit consideration of taxes is a necessary
aspect of any complete economic study of an
investment project. Once we understand that
depreciation has a significant influence on the
income and cash position of a firm, we will be
able to appreciate fully the importance of
utilizing depreciation as a means to maximize the
value both of engineering projects and of the
organization as a whole.
21
  • For corporations, the U.S. tax system has the
    following characteristics
  • 1. Tax rates are progressive The more you
  • earn, the more you pay.
  • 2. Tax rates increase in stair-step fashion
  • four brackets for corporations
    and two
  • additional surtax brackets,
    giving a total
  • of six brackets.
  • 3. Allowable exemptions and deductions
  • may reduce the overall tax
    assessment.

22
Marginal tax rate is the rate applied to the last
dollar of income earned Average (effective) tax
rate is the ratio of income tax paid to net
income and Incremental tax rate is the average
rate applied to the incremental income generated
by a new investment project. Capital gains are
currently taxed as ordinary income, and the
maximum rate is capped at 35. Capital losses
are deducted from capital gains net remaining
losses may be carried backward and forward for
consideration in years other than the current tax
year.
