Question

Problem 13-4 Sheffield Corp., a leader in the commercial cleaning industry, acquired and installed, at a total cost of $109,700 plus 15% HST, three underground tanks to store hazardous liquid solutions needed in the cleaning process. The tanks were ready for use on February 28, 2020. The provincial ministry of the environment regulates the use of such tanks and requires them to be disposed of after 10 years of use. Sheffield estimates that the cost of digging up and removing the tanks in 2030 will be $29,510. An appropriate interest or discount rate is 5%. Sheffield also manufactures commercial cleaning machines that it sells to dry cleaning establishments throughout Nova Scotia. During 2020, Sheffield sold 20 machines at a price of $11,920 each plus 15% HST. The machines were sold with a two-year warranty for parts and labour. Similar warranty agreements are available separately and are estimated to have a stand-alone value of $969. Sales in 2020 occurred evenly throughout the year. Any revenue related to the warranty agreements is assumed to be earned evenly over the two-year contract term as follows: 2020, 25%, 2021, 50%, and 2022, 25%. Sheffield estimates the total cost of servicing the warranties will be $11,181 over the two-year contract term. Sheffield incurred actual warranty expenditures of $2,898 in 2020.
