Which of the following demonstrates the historical cost principle?
, (A) John is wondering which method of accounting for inventory in his bike shop would be most
appropriate. He decides that he should use the same method that he has been using for the last few
years, since his business has been operating essentially the same way.
(B) Real Estate prices in Orderville have increased dramatically over the last five years. Although the land
under Chad's office building is currently believed to be worth $500,000, it is recorded at $250,000
because that is the price he paid for it.
(C) Shelley's Automotive received a large order from a customer, who prepaid the entire amount.
Shelley recorded the prepayment as revenue at the time she received the cash. Shelley delivered the
parts 30 days after the payment was received. - CORRECT ANSWER ANSWER: (B) Real Estate prices in
Orderville have increased dramatically over the last five years. Although the land under Chad's office
building is currently believed to be worth $500,000, it is recorded at $250,000 because that is the price
he paid for it.
The idea that assets are recorded at their original cost underlies the historical cost principle, so the land
under Chad's office being recorded at the price he paid for it is an example of the historical cost
principle.
INCORRECT:
(A) John is wondering which method of accounting for inventory in his bike shop would be most
appropriate. He decides that he should use the same method that he has been using for the last few
years, since his business has been operating essentially the same way.
This is an example of consistency, not historical cost.
(C) Shelley's Automotive received a large order from a customer, who prepaid the entire amount.
Shelley recorded the prepayment as revenue at the time she received the cash. Shelley delivered the
parts 30 days after the payment was received.
This is an example of the cash method of accounting, not historical cost.
