Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Extraordinary repairs are significant repairs or improvements made to an asset that extend its useful life or increase its efficiency, and are capitalized as a new asset. The cost of these repairs or improvements is added to the asset's book value and, as a result, the accumulated depreciation balance needs to be adjusted, which is done by debiting it.
