Question:
Recall that Note 3 says the company depreciates its buildings and roof over a useful life of between 20 and 50 years. Using the table determine the AVERAGE cost of the Buildings over the fiscal year ending Feb 2, 2020. [Add together the beginning of the year cost value, and the end of the year cost value, and divide by 2]. Then divide this average cost by the fiscal 2020 depreciation expense for buildings, which is found on the table in the same column. How would you interpret the result (which is measured in the number of years)? Does your calculation fall within the range of 20 to 50 years?
1) Total costs of $67,923 for the land, building and roof also include racking, fixtures and other equipment that are in the process of being installed. The building itself is now substantially complete.
2) Recognized costs of $33,295 for the building and roof will start being depreciated as at January 30, 2017, which is when management deemed the building to be substantially available for use. Racking, fixtures and other equipment (including hardware and software) totalling $12,484 will be reclassified to store and warehouse equipment, computer equipment and computer software at a later date, once depreciation begins.
