Answer 18.4
| 18.4: City hospital paid $500,000 for a piece of advanced diagnostic equipment. The transportation and installation costs to make the equipment functioning fully is $50,000. The staff training cost to operate the new equipment is about $10,000. How much of the costs should be capitalized for the asset? (assuming other costs involved negligible) | |||
| Capitalized | Expensed | ||
| Purchase price | $ 500,000 | x | |
| Transportation and Installation | $ 50,000 | x | |
| Initial Training | $ 10,000 | x | |
| Capitalized cost | $ 550,000 | ||
| Answer: Based on GASB Statement 34, the transportation and installation cost should be capitalized while the initial training cost should not. Consequently, the total capitalizable amount should be $550,000. | |||
