Goldman SA bought a machine on June 1, 2017, for €31,800, f.o.b. the place of manufacture. Freight to the point where it was set up was €200, and €500 was expended to install it. The machine's useful life was estimated at 10 years, with a residual value of €2,500. On June 1, 2018, an essential part of the machine is replaced, at a cost of €2,700, with one designed to reduce the cost of operating the machine. The book value of the old part is estimated to be €900.
On June 1, 2021, the company buys a new machine of greater capacity for €35,000, delivered, trading in the old machine which has a fair value and trade-in allowance of €20,000. To prepare the old machine for removal from the plant cost €75, and expenditures to install the new one were €1,500. It is estimated that the new machine has a useful life of 10 years, with a residual value of €4,000 at the end of that time. The exchange has commercial substance.
