The objective of IAS 16 is to prescribe the accounting treatment for property, plant, and equipment. The principal issues are the recognition of assets, the determination of their carrying amounts, and the depreciation charges and impairment losses to be recognised in relation to them.
IAS 16 applies to the accounting for property, plant and equipment, except where another standard requires or permits differing accounting treatments, for example: 1. assets classified as held for sale in accordance with IFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations 2. biological assets related to agricultura...
Items of property, plant, and equipment should be recognised as assets when it is probable that: [IAS 16.7] 1. it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the asset will flow to the entity, and 2. the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. This recognition principle is applied to all property, plant, and equipment co...
An item of property, plant and equipment should initially be recorded at cost. [IAS 16.15] Cost includes all costs necessary to bring the asset to working condition for its intended use.

IAS 16 permits two accounting models: 1. Cost model.The asset is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. [IAS 16.30] 2. Revaluation model.The asset is carried at a revalued amount, being its fair value at the date of revaluation less subsequent depreciation and impairment, provided that fair value can be...
Under the revaluation model, revaluations should be carried out regularly, so that the carrying amount of an asset does not differ materially from its fair value at the balance sheet date. [IAS 16.31] If an item is revalued, the entire class of assets to which that asset belongs should be revalued. [IAS 16.36] Revalued assets are depreci...
For all depreciable assets: The depreciable amount (cost less residual value) should be allocated on a systematic basis over the asset's useful life [IAS 16.50]. The residual value and the useful life of an asset should be reviewed at least at each financial year-end and, if expectations differ from previous estimates, any change is acco...

Apr 17, 2024 · For this example, we use the same high-tech PP&E item purchased for $12 million with no residual value, to be used over five years. The entity recognises the depreciation expense using the sum of the digits method as follows: Year 1: (5/15) x $12m = $4m. Year 2: (4/15) x $12m = $3.2m. Year 3: (3/15) x $12m = $2.4m.
Mar 15, 2024 · Straight-line depreciation is a very useful method that allows one to depreciate an asset evenly over time at a set rate. In other words, it is a systematic way of calculating depreciation deductions in equal amounts for each unit of the asset during its useful life. You can use this method when you know how long an asset will be in service and ...
