Consider the following statements about replacement analysis.

1. The defender's original first cost is irrelevant   2. The economic service life is where total annual cost is least   3. A fully depreciated asset should always be replaced

  • A.1, 2 and 3 are all correct statements about replacement analysis
  • B.2 and 3 only are correct
  • C.1 and 3 only are correct
  • D.1 and 2 only are correct

Answer: D

Correct answer: 1 and 2 only are correct

Statements 1 and 2 are correct: the original first cost is sunk, and the economic service life is where the total annual cost is least. Statement 3 confuses accounting with economics - depreciation is a bookkeeping allocation, and an asset fully written down may still be the cheapest way to do the job.
