Ivanhoe Corporation owns and manages a small 10-store shopping centre, which it classifies as an investment property.
Question:
Ivanhoe Corporation owns and manages a small 10-store shopping centre, which it classifies as an investment property. Ivanhoe has a May 31 year end and initially recognized the property at its acquisition cost of $10.8 million on June 2, 2019. The acquisition cost consisted of the purchase price of $10 million, costs to survey and transfer the property of $476,000, and legal fees to acquire the property of $324,000. Ivanhoe determines that approximately 26% of the shopping centre’s value is attributable to the land, with the remainder attributable to the building. The following fair values are determined:
Date | Fair Value | |
---|---|---|
May 31, 2020 | $10,530,000 | |
May 31, 2021 | $10,425,000 | |
May 31, 2022 | $11,030,000 |
Ivanhoe expects the shopping centre building to have a 35-year useful life and a residual value of $0.992 million. Ivanhoe uses the straight-line method for depreciation.
1.Assume that Ivanhoe decides to apply the cost model. What journal entries, if any, are required each year?
2.Assume that Ivanhoe decides to apply the fair value model. Prepare the journal entries, if any, required at each year end.
