Now, in Year 10, the company has spent an additional $1,000,000 on the equipment. $400,000 of this total was for ordinary repairs to fix things to maintain the equipment’s normal operating condition. However, the other $600,000 was for extraordinary repairs, which consisted of replacing the original engine so that the useful life of the entire equipment was extended an additional five years. Company management decided to “capitalize” the entire $1,000,000.
