Assume REH AG, a hypothetical company, incurs expenditures of AC1,000 per month during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 to develop software for internal use. Under IFRS, the company must treat the expenditures as an expense until the software meets the criteria for recognition as an intangible asset, after which time the expenditures can be capitalized as an intangible asset. 1 What is the accounting impact of the company being able to demonstrate that the software met the criteria for recognition as an intangible asset on February 1 versus December 1? 2 How would the treatment of expenditures differ if the company reported under US GAAP and it had established in 2018 that the project was likely to be completed and the software used to perform the function intended?

2. The accountant of Swift Inc. was preparing for the audit of its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, and discovered that an automobile was being incorrectly depreciated. The automobile was purchased on January 1, 2021, for $50,000 and the estimated residual value after five years was expected to be $5,000.The company uses the straight-line basis for depreciating vehicles, but the residual value was not considered when determining the depreciation amount. The financial controller informed the accountant that the company was switching to the double- declining balance method of depreciation for the current and future years, as it was believed this method would more accurately portray the consumption of benefits received from the asset's use.Required: State whether it is a change in accounting estimate/policy or an accounting error. Prepare the journal entries required on December 31, 2022. Ignore income tax effects. Show all workings

(b) Change the depreciation charge and treat it as a correction of an error. (c) Change the annual depreciation for the current year and future years. (d) Ignore the effect of the change on annual depreciation, because changes in salvage values would normally affect the future only since these are expected to be recovered in future.
