1. Calculate lthe lcost lof lproperty, lplant, land lequipment. lThe lcost lof lproperty, lplant, land lequipment
lincludes lall lcosts lthat lare lnecessary lto lacquire lthe lasset land lmake lit lready lfor lits lintended luse. lAll lcosts
lthat lbenefit lfuture lperiods l(that lis, lcapital lexpenditures) lare lincluded lin lthe lcost lof lthe lasset. lWhen
lapplicable, lcost lalsolincludes lasset lretirementlcosts. lWhen lmultiple lassets lare lpurchased lin lone
ltransaction, lor lwhen lan lasset lhas lsignificant lcomponents, lthe lcost lis lallocated lto leach lindividual lasset lor
lcomponent lusing ltheir lrelative lfair lvalues.

4. Demonstrate lhow lto laccount lfor lproperty, lplant, land lequipment ldisposals. lThe laccounting lfor
lthe ldisposal lof la lpiece lof lproperty, lplant, lor lequipment lthrough lretirement lor lsale lis las lfollows:
(a) Update lany lunrecorded ldepreciation lfor lpartial lperiods lsince ldepreciationlwas llast lrecorded.
(b) Calculatelthelcarryinglamountl(costl–laccumulatedldepreciation).

5. Record lnatural lresource ltransactions land lcalculate ldepletion. lThe lunits-of-production lmethod lof
ldepreciation lis lgenerally lused lfor lnatural lresources. lThe ldepreciable lamount lper lunit lis lcalculated lby
ldividinglthe ltotalldepreciable lamount lby lthe lnumberlof lunits lestimated ltolbe lin lthe lresource. lThe
ldepreciable lamount lper lunit lis lmultiplied lby lthe lnumber lof lunits lthat lhave lbeen lextracted lto ldetermine
lthe lannual ldepreciation. lThe ldepreciation land lany lother lcosts lto lextract lthe lresource lare lrecorded las

lresource lsoldlon lthe lincome lstatement. lRevisions lto ldepreciation lwill lbe lrequired lfor lcapital
lexpenditures lduring lthe lasset’s luseful llife, lfor limpairments, land lfor lchanges lin lthe ltotal lestimated lunits
lof lthe lresource.
6. Identify lthe lbasic laccounting lissues lfor lintangible lassets land lgoodwill. lThe laccounting lfor
ltangible land lintangible lassets lis lmuch lthe lsame. lIntangible lassets lare lreported lat lcost, lwhich lincludes
lall lexpenditures lnecessary lto lprepare lthe lasset lfor lits lintended luse. lAn lintangible lasset lwith la lfinite llife lis
lamortized lover lthe lshorter lof lits luseful llife land llegal llife, lusually lon la lstraight-line lbasis. lThe
lextent lof lthe lannual limpairment ltests ldepends lon lwhether lIFRS lor lASPE lis lfollowed land lwhether lthe
lintangible lasset lhad la lfinite lor lindefinite llife. lIntangible lassets lwith lindefinite llives land lgoodwill lare lnot
lamortized land lare ltested lat lleast lannually lfor limpairment. lImpairment llosses lon lgoodwill lare
lnever lreversed lunder lbothlIFRS land lASPE.
7. Illustrate lthe lreporting land lanalysis lof llong-lived lassets. lIt lis lcommon lfor lproperty, lplant, land
lequipment, land lnatural lresources lto lbe lcombinedlin lfinancial lstatements lunder lthe lheading l―property,
