Need asap, I'll give a like rating for the solution
Case 1; Determine the capitalized cost of a research laboratory
which requires Php 5,000,000 for original construction Php 100,000
at the end of every year for the first 6 years and then Php 120,000
each year thereafter for operating expenses, and Php 500,000 every
5 years for replacement of equipment with interest at 12% per
annum.
Case 2: A man purchased a foreclosed property for Php
425,000. In the first month that he owned the house, he spent Php
75,000 for repairs and remodelling. Immediately after the house was
remodeled, he was offered Php 545,000to sell the house. After some
consideration, he decided to keep the property and have it rented
for Php 4,500 per month starting two months after the purchase. He
collected rent for 15 months and then sold the property for Php
600,000. If the interest rate was 1.5% per month, how much extra
earnings did he make or lose by not selling the house immediately
after it was remodeled.

You consider buying a lot on which you will build a small apartment complex. The asking price for the lot is $500,000 and the estimated cost to build the apartment complex is $1,000,000 (construction should take one year). One year from the date you intend to purchase the lot the city is going to make an important decision regarding the use of the land just across from your lot. You believe that there is a 30% chance that the decision would be favorable to you and a 70% chance that it would be unfavorable. In case of a favorable or unfavorable outcome your complex should generate an NOI of $250,000 or $200,000 respectively. For simplicity, you may assume that at any time you can sell your complex for a 9% CAP and your required rate of return is 10%.
a. Calculate the value of the lot using the traditional approach.
b. Calculate the value of the lot using the real option approach.
c. Should you buy the lot?
d. In case that you decided to buy the lot, should you build the apartment complex right away or wait for the city to make its decision first?

Mooney Ltd. completed the construction of an office building for £2,400,000 on December 31, 2019. The company estimated that the building would have a residual value of £0 and a useful life of 40 years. A more detailed review of the expenditures related to the building indicates that £300,000 of the total cost was used for personal property and £180,000 for land improvements. The personal property has a depreciable life of 5 years and land improvements have a depreciable life of 10 years.
Instructions
a. Compute depreciation expense for 2020 using component depreciation and the straight‐line method.
b. assume a yearly accounting period ending on 31 May 2020. Prepare the adjusting journal entry for depreciation on that date.
c. Prior to the IFRS requirement to depreciate components separately, all of the £2,400,000 may well have been depreciated using the useful life and residual value of the building. Calculate the depreciation expense for the calendar year 2020 under this scenario. Compare this with what you calculated for Instruction a). If management were opportunistic, would they have preferred the result just calculated or the result in a)? Explain why.

Select the correct option:
|
a. |

|
b. |
Accelerated. |
|
c. |

|
d. |
All of the above. |
2. The activity method of depreciation
|
a. |
is a variable charge approach. |

b. |
assumes that depreciation is a function of the passage of
time. |

c. |
conceptually associates cost in terms of input
measures. |
|

d. |
all of these. |
3. In measuring an impairment loss, IFRS uses

a. |
undiscounted cash flows |
|
b. |
discounted cash flows |

|
d. |
a replacement value test. |
Answer True or False:
4. Under IFRS and U.S. GAAP, interest costs incurred during construction must be capitalized.
5. An accelerated depreciation method is appropriate when the asset's economic usefulness is the same each year.
6. IFRS permits the same depreciation methods as U.S. GAAP, with the exception of the units-of-production method, which is not allowed under IFRS.
7. As with U.S. GAAP, IFRS requires that both direct and indirect costs in self-constructed assets be capitalized.

Triad Corporation has established a joint venture with Tobacco Road Construction, Inc., to build a toll road in North Carolina. The initial investment in paving equipment is $137 million. The equipment will be fully depreciated using the straight-line method over its economic life of five years. Earnings before interest, taxes, and depreciation collected from the toll road are projected to be $21.3 million per annum for 20 years starting from the end of the first year. The corporate tax rate is 23 percent. The required rate of return for the project under all-equity financing is 15 percent. The pretax cost of debt for the joint partnership is 8.1 percent. To encourage investment in the country’s infrastructure, the U.S. government will subsidize the project with a $55 million, 15-year loan at an interest rate of 4.6 percent per year. All principal will be repaid in one balloon payment at the end of Year 15. |

After spending 500,000 to study the potential market for a new specialty chemical, hart industries is considering a new plant requiring an initial investment in new construction and equipment. The company will purchase 6,000,000 in new plant equipment. The IRS will allow hart to depreciate the plant equipment to a salvage value of zero on a straight-line basis over a six-year useful life. At the end of five years they expect to sell the plant and equipment for 2,000,000. The firm estimates revenue year1= 26M, Year2= 25M, Year3= 25M, Year4= 25M, Year5= 25M. Variable cost will be 70% of revenue. Fixed costs for the project are estimated to be 3,000,000 annually. Initial net working capital requirements for the project are expected to be 700,000. In addition, the company will increase required working capital 50,000 each year. at the end of five year project the net working capital will no longer be required. The company tax rate is 30%. What is harts cash flows from assets for the 5 years of the project? If your required return rate is 10%, what is the projects NPV and IRR? Should the company accept the project?

You must analyze a potential new product—a caulking compound that Cory Materials’ R&D people
developed for use in the residential construction industry. Cory’s marketing manager thinks they
can sell 115,000 tube per year at a price of $3.25 per year for 3 years, after which the product will
be obsolete. The required equipment would cost $150,000, plus another $25,000 for shipping and
installation. Current assets would increase by $35,000 while current liabilities would rise by
$15,000. Variable costs would be 60% of sales revenues, fixed costs (excluding depreciation)
would be $70,000 per year, and fixed assets would be depreciated under MACRS with a 3-year life.
The relative depreciation rates would be 33.33%, 44.44%, 14.82% and 7.41%. When production
ceases after 3 years, the equipment will have a market value of $15,000. Cory’s tax rate is 40%
and it uses a 10% wacc for average-risk projects.

Calculate the project’s NPV, IRR, MIRR, PI, payback and discounted payback.
