MOON CORP. is a manufacturer of exercise equipment such as treadmills, stair climbers, and elloptical machines. The Company has a Dec. 31 year end and uses ASPE. The accounting staff member who normally looks after the capital asset accounts was on maternity leave for the year, and the company put all transactions in a temporary account called ASSET additions and Disposals.

The company policy on calculating depreciation for partial periods of ownership is to take 50% of the normal amount of depreciation in the year of addition or disposal. Due to the staff members maternity leave, no depreciation or amortization expense has yet been taken in 2023.
