1. In 1988, Abraham Company completed the construction of a building at a cost of €1,900,000 and first occupied it in January 1989. It was estimated that the building will have a useful life of 40 years and a residual value of €60,000 at the end of that time. Early in 1999, an addition to the building was constructed at a cost of €470,000. At that time it was estimated that the remaining life of the building would be, as originally estimated, an additional 30 years, and that the addition would have a life of 30 years and a residual value of €20,000. In 2017, it is determined that the probable life of the building and addition will extend to the end of 2048, or 20 years beyond the original estimate.
