SITUATION 2

CALEMBANG COMPANY, whose accounting year ends on December 31, provides

delivery services for packages to be taken between the city and the airport.

On January 1, 2023, the company acquired a delivery van from Togo Trucks. The
company paid cash of P3,060,000 to Togo, which included registration fees of
P60,000. Insurance costs for the first year amounted to P72,000. The truck is
expected to have a useful life of five years. At the end of its useful life, the asset is
expected to be sold for P1,440,000, with costs relating to the sale amounting to
P24,000.

On January 1, 2024, Calembang’s management decided to add another vehicle, a

flat-top, to the fleet. This vehicle was acquired from a liquidation auction at a cash
price of P1,800,000. The vehicle needed some repairs for the elimination of rust (cost
P138,000) and the replacement of all tires (cost P37,200). The company believed it
would use the flat-top for another two years and then sell it. Expected selling price
was P900,000, with selling costs estimated to be P24,000.

On January 1, 2024, a radio communication system was installed in both vehicles at a

cost per vehicle of P18,000. This was not expected to have any material effect on the
future selling price of either vehicle.

Insurance costs for 2024 were P72,000 for the first vehicle and P54,000 for the newly
acquired vehicle.

On January 1, 2025, the flat-top that had been acquired at auction broke down. The
company thought about acquiring a new vehicle to replace this one but, after
considering the costs, decided to repair the flat-top instead. The vehicle was given a
major overhaul at a cost of P390,000. Although this was a major expense,
management believed that the company would keep the vehicle for another two
years. The estimated selling price in three years’ time is P720,000, with selling
costs estimated at P18,000. Insurance costs for 2025 were the same as for the
previous year.

Questions:

1. On January 1, 2023, Calembang should record the delivery van at
