What happened to the asset?

Hi Lisa,

Thanks for responding.  The tax exempt agency is an ambulance service.  The 2 ambulances (2003 and 2006) were given to another ambulance service in lieu of money owed to them for their assistance on calls.  A power stretcher was given to a different ambulance service in lieu of money owed to them for their assistance on calls.  The building and improvements were transferred over to the local municipality and the balance in the checking account is going to the municipality as well.  Many of the other assets were fully depreciated computers and office furniture.  There were pagers and radios that are in the possession of responders - most fully depreciated and never returned.

The only option I can see in Pro Series is to enter a disposition date for each asset and 0 for the sales price since nothing was sold.  This causes some larger losses on the building and improvements that because they were not fully depreciated.

Is there any other guidance you can recommend?

Thanks,

well, the ones that were given to cover a debt would be sold for the value of that debt.

990s arent in my wheelhouse at all, sorry. Im not sure what happens when assets are transferred to the municipality.

Thanks for your input Just-Lisa-Now.

 

Have a good day!

These are noncash grants made at FMV. No loss on "disposition". Just stop depreciation.

to stop depreciation in ProSeries, just enter the date of disposal, leave the sales price blank, no zero. That takes it out of service as of that date, with no gain/loss.
