Thus, more emphasis isplaced on higher dollar value items (“A”s) than on lesserdollar value items (“B”s), while the least important items(“C”s) receive the least time and attention. Inventory sh
9、ouldbe analyzed frequently when using the ABC method. Theprocedure for ABC analysis follows: (1) Separate finishedgoods into types (chairs of different models, and so on);separate raw materials into types (screws, nuts, and so on).(2) Calculate the annual dollar usage for each type ofinventory (mult
10、iply the unit cost by the expected futureannual usage). (3) Rank each inventory type from highest tolowest, based on annual dollar usage. (4) Classify theinventory as Athe top 20 %; Bthe next 30 %; andCthe last 50 % of dollars usage, respectively. (5) Tag theinventory with its appropriate ABC classi

United States1method is the 200 % declining balance method. For 15 and20-y
16、ear property, the appropriate method is the 150 %declining balance method switching to the straight-linemethod when it will yield a larger allowance. For residentialrental property (27.5 years) and nonresidential real property(31.5 years), the applicable method is the straight-linemethod. A taxpayer
17、 may make an irrevocable election totreat all property in one of the classes under the straight-linemethod. Property is statutorily placed in one of the classes.The purpose of ACRS is to encourage more capital invest-ment by businesses. It permits a faster recovery of the assetscost and thus provide
18、s larger tax benefits in the earlier years.See also modified accelerated cost recovery systems(MACRS).accelerated depreciation, nany method of calculating de-preciation charges where the charges become progressivelysmaller each periodaccessory item, nan item that facilitates or enhances theoperation

When an accounting change is made, appropri-ate footnote disclosure is required to explain its justificationand financial effect, thereby enabling readers to makeappropriate investment and credit judg
22、ments. Proper justifi-cation for a change in accounting principles may be theissuance of a new FASB pronouncement, SEC AccountingSeries Release (ASR), or IRS regulation. Changes in esti-mates are justified by changing circumstances such as agreater degree of wear and tear of a fixed asset thanorigin
23、ally anticipated. Generally, the consistent use of ac-counting principles and procedures is essential in appraisingand entitys activities and in the projection of future results;however, changes in the reporting entity have to be retroac-tively reflected for comparative purposes.accretion, nincrease

Usingstraight-line depreciation, the accumulated depreciation on12/31/2003 would be $3600 ($900 4).acquisition, nhardware, supplies or services throughpurchase, leas

Average Inventory divided by Average Age ofInventory = Cost of Goods Sold 365 days.average inventory, namount equaling about half maximuminventory when demand is relatively constant. For exa
43、mple,if the maximum inventory is 500 units and depletion occursat a fairly constant rate, the average inventory equals 250units (500/2).average life, nestimated useful-life expectancy of a depre-ciable group of assets.
