Interpreting and Applying Disclosures on Property and
Equipment
Following are selected disclosures from the Rohm and Haas Company
(a specialty chemical company) 2005 10-K.
| Land, Building and Equipment, Net | ||
|---|---|---|
| (in millions) | 2005 | 2004 |
| Land | $ 139 | $ 141 |
| Buildings and improvements | 1,683 | 1,744 |
| Machinery and equipment | 5,570 | 5,656 |
| Capitalized interest | 329 | 320 |
| Construction in progress | 168 | 166 |

The principal lives (in years) used in determining depreciation
rates of various assets are: buildings and improvement (10-50);
machinery and equipment (5-20); automobiles, trucks and tank cars
(3-10); furniture and fixtures, laboratory equipment and other
assets (5-10); capitalized software (5-7). The principal life used
in determining the depreciation rate for leasehold improvements is
the years remaining in the lease term or the useful life (in years)
of the asset, whichever is shorter.
IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
Long-lived assets, other than investments, goodwill and
indefinite-lived intangible assets, are depreciated over their
estimated useful lives, and are reviewed for impairment whenever
changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of the asset
may not be recoverable. Such circumstances would include items such
as a significant decrease in the market price of a long-lived
asset, a significant adverse change in the manner the asset is
being used or planned to be used or in its physical condition or a
history of operating or cash flow losses associated with the use of
the asset ... When such events or changes occur, we assess the
recoverability of the asset by comparing the carrying value of the
asset to the expected future cash flows associated with the asset's
planned future use and eventual disposition of the asset, if
applicable...We utilize marketplace assumptions to calculate the
discounted cash flows used in determining the asset's fair value.
In 2005, $81 million of asset impairments were recognized for the
impairment of certain finite-lived intangible assets and fixed
assets across several of our chemical businesses and our Electronic
Materials segment.
