Nonmonetary Exchange Exchange of non-monetary assets for another non-monetary asset is known as nonmonetary exchange. Exchange has commercial substance: If an exchange (Example: exchange of land for another non-monetary asset other than land) is likely to have a change in the future cash flows , then it is known as exchange has commercial substance. In this case, an exchange of non-monetary assets, which have commercial substance, is recorded at its fair value, and then resulted gain or loss must be recognized by determining the difference between the fair value and book value. Exchange lacks commercial substance: If an exchange (Example: exchange of land for another land) is expected that it will not change the future cash flows, then such exchange is known as exchange lacks commercial substance. In this case, an exchange lacks commercial substance; therefore new non-monetary asset would be value at the book value of the old non-monetary asset. To determine: The amount of gain or loss that K Farms would recognize on the exchange of tracker, and also determine the initial value of the new tractor.

Definition Definition Net amount of cash that an entity receives and expends over the course of a given period. For a business to continue operating, positive cash flows are required, and they are also necessary to produce value for investors. Investors in particular prefer to see growing cash flows even after capital expenditures have been paid for (which is known as free cash flow).

Case A (Requirement (1))
To determine
Nonmonetary Exchange
Exchange of non-monetary assets for another non-monetary asset is known as nonmonetary exchange.
Exchange has commercial substance:
If an exchange (Example: exchange of land for another non-monetary asset other than land) is likely to have a change in the future cash flows, then it is known as exchange has commercial substance. In this case, an exchange of non-monetary assets, which have commercial substance, is recorded at its fair value, and then resulted gain or loss must be recognized by determining the difference between the fair value and book value.
Exchange lacks commercial substance:
If an exchange (Example: exchange of land for another land) is expected that it will not change the future cash flows, then such exchange is known as exchange lacks commercial substance. In this case, an exchange lacks commercial substance; therefore new non-monetary asset would be value at the book value of the old non-monetary asset.
To determine: The amount of gain or loss that K Farms would recognize on the exchange of tracker, and also determine the initial value of the new tractor.
Case A Requirement (2)
To determine
The amount of gain or loss that K Farms would recognize on the exchange of tracker, and also determine the initial value of the new tractor (Assume, the fair value of the old tractor is $14,000).
Case B (Requirement (1))
To determine
The amount of gain or loss that K Farms would recognize on the exchange of land, and also determine the initial value of the new land.
Case B (Requirement (2))
To determine
The amount of gain or loss that K Farms would recognize on the exchange of land, and also determine the initial value of the land (Assume that the fair value of the old land is $400,000).
Case B (Requirement (3))
To determine
The amount of gain or loss that K Farms would recognize on the exchange of land, and also determine the initial value of the land (Assume that the exchange lacks commercial substance).
