WGU D104 Objective Assessment V1 – Intermediate Accounting II Review (Latest 2026/ 2027 Update) 100% Verified Questions & Answers | Grade A QUESTION Jamison Company purchased the assets of Booker Company at an auction for $5,600,000. An independent appraisal of the fair value of the assets is listed below: Land $1,900,000 Building $2,800,000 Equipment $2,100,000 Trucks $3,400,000 Assuming that specific identification costs are impracticable and that Jamison allocates the purchase price on the basis of the relative fair values, what amount would be allocated to the trucks? Answer: $1,866,667 When a purchase is made at a lump-sum price, the company allocates the cost based on the relative fair values of the assets. Therefore, the value allocated to the trucks is: $5,600,000 x [ $3,400,000 / ($1,900,000 + $2,800,000 + $2,100,000 + $3,400,000)] = $1,866,667. QUESTION On September 10, 2020, Jenks Co. incurred the following costs for one of its printing presses: Purchase of attachment $55,000 Installation of attachment $5,000 Replacement parts for renovation of press $18,000 Labor and overhead in connection with renovation of press $7,000 Neither the attachment nor the renovation increased the estimated useful life of the press. However, the renovation resulted in significantly increased productivity. What amount of the costs should be capitalized? Answer: $85,000 If an improvement, or renovation, increases the the output or quality of an asset, all of the costs associated with the addition or improvement should be capitalized. Therefore, the costs that should be capitalized is: $55,000 + $5,000 + $18,000 + $7,000 = $85,000 QUESTION Ecker Company purchased a new machine on May 1, 2012 for $528,000. At the time of acquisition, the machine was estimated to have a useful life of ten years and an estimated salvage value of $24,000. The company has recorded monthly depreciation using the straight-line method. On March 1, 2021, the machine was sold for $72,000. What should be the loss recognized from the sale of the machine? Answer: $10,800 Depreciable Basis = $528,000 less $24,000 (salvage value) = $504,000 Depreciation = $504,000 / 10 years = 50,400 / year = $4,200 / month depreciation. Book Basis = $528,000 - (4,200 x 106 months) = $82,800 Sales Price - Book Basis = Gain/Loss $72,000 - 82,800 = $10,800 Loss QUESTION What is true regarding a purchased limited-life intangible asset? Answer: It is amortized; tested for recoverability test, and fair value tested. QUESTION Which is true concerning intangible assets? Answer: Intangible assets derive their value from the rights and privileges granted to the company using them. QUESTION Which characteristic do intangible assets possess?

Answer: $1,593,056 Patents are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the useful life and the legal life of the asset. On December 31, 2020, the asset would be amortized for 25 months [1 month in 2018 + 12 months in 2019 + 12 months in 2020]. $1,850,000 / 180 months = monthly amortization of $10,277.78 x 25 months = $256,944.50 total amortization expense. The book value at December 31, 2020 is $1,593,056 ($1,850,000 - $256,944.50).
