Assignment 4

One or more items of property, plant and equipment may be acquired in exchange for a non-monetary asset or assets, or a combination of monetary and non-monetary assets. The cost of such an item of property, plant and equipment is measured at fair value unless:

a) the exchange transaction lacks commercial substance; or

b) the fair value of neither the asset received nor the asset given up is reliably measurable.

If an entity is able to measure reliably the fair value of either the asset received or the asset given up, then the fair value of the asset given up is used to measure the cost of the asset received unless the fair value of the asset received is more clearly evident.

Assuming the transaction has commercial substance,

31 Dec Equipment (new) 13000  
  Accumulated depreciation 25000  
  Loss on exchange of assets 4500  
  To equipment (old)   40000
  To cash   2500
