TRUE OR FALSE: Write TRUE if the statement is correct and FALSE if the
statement is incorrect.
TRUE 1. Age of the asset it is important to know how old the asset is.
TRUE 2. The National Associations of Valuators and Analysts has defined
the replacement cost as the cost of similar assets that have the nearest
equivalent value as of the valuation date.
FALSE 3. Under the replacement value method, the value of the individual
assets shall be replace to reflect the relative value or cost equivalent to replace
that asset.
TRUE 4. Appraisers have their own technique to determine the
replacement value.
TRUE 5. The National Associations of Valuators and Analysts has defined
the replacement cost as the cost of similar assets that have the nearest
equivalent value as of the valuation date.
TRUE 6. In some instances, no external information is available that can
serve as basis for replacement cost of assets that are highly specialized in
nature. In this case, reproduction value is used instead.
TRUE 7. Reproduction is an estimate for cost of reproducing, creating,
developing or manufacturing a similar asset.
TRUE 8. The book value is highly dependent on the value of the assets
and declared in the audited financial statements, particularly the balance sheet
on the statement of financial position.
FALSE 9. International Accounting Standard No. 1 does not require the
statement of financial position to summarize the total value of its assets,
liabilities, and equity of a firm.
TRUE 10. Reproduction Value Method is useful when calculating the
value of new or start-up Businesses and ventures that use specialized equipment
or assets.
TRUE 11. Assets are required to be categorized into current and non-
current assets.
TRUE 12. Assets wherein benefits can be realized in more than 12
months are known as non-current assets.
TRUE 13. In the book value method, the value of the enterprise is based
on the book value of the assets less all non-equity claims against it.
FALSE 14. Replacement value method and reproduction value method has
the same concept.
TRUE 15. The challenge of using reproduction value method is the ability
to validate the reasonableness of the value calculated.

MULTIPLE CHOICE
16. Assets which have distinct characteristics are hard to replace. However,
the characteristics and capabilities of the distinct asset might be found in
similar, separate assets. Some valuators combine the value of the similar,
separate assets that can perform the function of the distinct asset being
valued.
a. Replacement Value Method
b. Age of the asset
c. Competitive advantage of the asset
d. Book Value
17. It is important to know how old the asset is. This will enable the valuator to
determine the costs related in order to upkeep a similarly aged asset and
whether assets with similar engineering design are still available in the
market.
a. Replacement Value Method
b. Age of the asset
c. Competitive advantage of the asset
d. Book Value
18. This is important for fixed assets particularly real property where assets of
the similar size will be compared. Some analysts find that the assets can
produce the same volume for the assets of the same size.
a. Book Value
b. Liquidation Value Method
c. Production Value
d. Size of the assets
19. Defined the replacement cost as the cost of similar assets that have the
nearest equivalent value as of the valuation date.
a. National Associations of Valuators and Analysts
b. International Valuation Standards Council
c. World Association of Valuation Organizations Sign
d. Security and Exchange Commission
20. The cost of similar assets that have the nearest equivalent value as of the
valuation date.

b. Replacement cost
c. Economic Value
d. Market Cost
21. Statement 1: Current assets are those expected to be realized within the
company’s normal operating cycle, expected to be realized
within 12 months after these transactions were reported, or
held primarily for the purpose of trading.

not restricted.

view on firm value and is more verifiable since this is based in the figures
reflected in the financial statements.

SOLUTIONS FOR PROBLEM SOLVING

31. Accumulated Depreciation = PHP 15,000 x 4 years
= PHP60,000
Net Book Value = PHP 200,000 – PHP 60,000
Net Book Value = PHP 140,000

Reproduction Cost Estimate 90%
% Reproduction Cost PHP 720,000,000

Non-Current Assets - Reproduction Cost PHP 720,000,000

Add: Goodwill 200,000,000
Total Non-current Assets PHP 920,000,000

Reproduction Value = PHP 1,420,000,000 – PHP 900,000,000

1,000,000 shares
 Reproduction Value = PHP 520,000,000
1,000,000 shares

Reproduction Value = PHP 520 / share

34. Net Book Value = 25,000,000 – 2,100,000

35. In this situation, it would cost the company $23,000 to purchase a similar
asset to the one they current have in order to replace it. Thus, $23,000 is
the replacement cost of the $20,000 truck because this is how much it
would cost to buy that same truck today.
