An additional $15,000 of labor costs were incurred to assemble the machine. The equipment has an estimated life of 10 years or 100,000 snowboards (units of product). The estimated residual value is $20,000. During 2019, 17,000 snowboards (units of product) were produced with this machinery.

Early in its fiscal year ending December 31, 2021, San Antonio Outfitters finalized plans to expand operations. The first stage was completed on March 28 with the purchase of a tract of land on the outskirts of the city. The land and existing building were purchased by paying $330,000 immediately and signing a noninterest-bearing note requiring the company to pay $730,000 on March 28, 2023. An interest rate of 8% properly reflects the time value of money for this type of loan agreement. Title search, insurance, and other closing costs totaling $33,000 were paid at closing. At the end of April, the old building was demolished at a cost of $83,000, and an additional $63,000 was paid to clear and grade the land.

In 2020, Crane Contractors began construction on an office building. The building was expected to cost $46,310,000 in total, and was expected to be completed in early 2022. The customer was to pay Crane $48,760,000 for the building. Crane was able to use percentage-of-completion accounting for the project, and at the end of 2020 had accumulated $11,577,500 in cost. Crane estimated that the costs to complete the construction were in line with the original expected total costs. During 2021, there was a lumber shortage, a strike by construction workers, and various other incidents that dramatically raised costs in the construction industry. As a result, at the end of 2021, Crane estimated that the office building would cost $4,780,000 in total. To the end of 2021, Crane had spent $38,828,400 on constructing the office building.
