With an in-depth study of tangible asset and their market, we can identify factors influencing the approximate lifespan of a tangible asset before depreciation may be expected to occur. This information is essential for the company’s financial, tax disclosures, and reporting purposes.
Asset Componentization
IAS 16 -Property, Plant, and Equipment outlines the accounting treatment for most types of Property, Plant and Equipment. These are initially measured at cost, subsequently measured either using a cost or revaluation model, and depreciated so that its depreciable amount is allocated on a systematic basis over its useful life.
Entities must ensure that the overall value of an asset is split fairly between significant components that need to be accounted for separately, and that the components useful lives and the method of depreciation are determined on a reasonable and consistent basis. Where a significant component is expected to wear out more quickly than the overall asset, it is depreciated over a short period and any subsequent expenditure on restoring or replacing it is capitalized. This approach means that different depreciation periods may be used for each component of PPE.
Our team will help in identifying the components of Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) as per the requirement of IAS 16 and IFRS.
