During 2018, Cullumber Company purchased a building site for its proposed research and development laboratory at a cost
Company purchased a building site for its proposed research and development laboratory at a cost of $57,000. Construction of the building was started in 2018. The building was completed on December 31, 2019, at a cost of $440,000 and was placed in service on January 2, 2020. The estimated useful life of the building for depreciation purposes was 20 years. The straight-line method of depreciation was to be employed, and there was no estimated residual value. Management estimates that about 50% of the projects of the research and development group will result in long-term benefits (ue, at least 10 years) to the corporation. The remaining projects either benefit the current period or are abandoned before completion.
