Fixed Assets

Question

A production company is implementing Dynamics 365 Business Central. The company must be able to analyze the total acquisition and maintenance cost of each production line. The production lines must be set up as main assets with all the machines on the line set up as components. Only the machines on the production line should have a book value and be depreciated. You need to configure the system to post correctly for the production line assets. Which two actions should you perform? Each correct answer presents part of the solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Explanation

To correctly post production line assets, you must set up the production line as the main fixed asset and each machine as a component asset. Acquire and depreciate only the component machines individually, while all maintenance and acquisition costs for the production line are posted to the main asset. You can then analyze total costs by viewing the Main Asset Statistics for the production line, which aggregates the costs from all its component machines. Setup and acquisition [C, not D] 1. Create individual fixed asset cards: Set up a separate fixed asset card for each machine (components) and for the production line (main asset). 2. Link components to the main asset: On the main asset's fixed asset card, use the "Main Asset Components" action to add each machine as a component. [B] 3. Acquire component assets: Post the acquisition costs for each machine asset individually. Do not post acquisitions directly to the main production line asset. 4. Post acquisitions to the main asset: Purchase the entire production line but post the acquisition cost to the main asset. This is how you would account for the total cost of the production line, but the individual machines will be depreciated later. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/business-central/production-configure-production-
