Beats Corporation constructed a machine at a total cost of $206 million. Construction was completed at the end of 2020 and the machine was placed in service at the beginning of 2021. The machine was being depreciated over a 10-year life using the sum - of-the- yearsdigits method. By that method, accumulated depreciation at the end of 2023 is $972 milion. The residual value is expected to be $8.0 million. At the beginning of 2024, Beats decided to change to the straight-line method. Ignoring income taxes, what will be Beats's depreciation expense for 2024? Do not round intermedlate calculations. $14.4 million $27.2 million $5.4 million $16.2 million

Kam Company purchased a machine on January 2, 2019, for 20,000. The machine had an expected life of 8 years and a residual value of 300. The double-declining-balance method of depreciation is used. Required: 1. Compute the depreciation expense for each year of the assets life and book value at the end of each year. 2. Assuming that the company has a policy of always changing to the straight-line method at the midpoint of the assets life, compute the depreciation expense for each year of the assets life. 3. Assuming that the company always changes to the straight-line method at the beginning of the year when the annual straight-line amount exceeds the double-declining-balance amount, compute the depreciation expense for each year of the assets life.
At the end of 2020, Magenta Manufacturing Company discovered that construction cost had been capitalized as a cost of the factory building in 2015 when it should have been treated as a cost of production equipment installation costs. As a result of the misclassification, the depreciation through 2018 was understated by 110,000, and depreciation for 2019 was understated by 90,000. What would be the consequences of correcting for the misclassification of the property cost? a. The taxpayer uses the FIFO inventory method, and 25% of goods produced during the period were included in the ending inventory. b. The taxpayer uses the LIFO inventory method, and no new LIFO layer was added during 2019.
On May 10, 2019, Horan Company purchased equipment for 25,000. The equipment has an estimated service life of 5 years and zero residual value. Assume that the straight-line depreciation method is used. Required: Compute the depreciation expense for 2019 for each of the following four alternatives: 1. Horan computes depreciation expense to the nearest day. (Use 12 months of 30 days each and round the daily depreciation rate to 2 decimal places.) 2. Horan computes depreciation expense to the nearest month. Assets purchased in the first half of the month are considered owned for the whole month. 3. Horan computes depreciation expense to the nearest whole year. Assets purchased in the first half of the year are considered owned for the whole year. 4. Horan records one-half years depreciation expense on all assets purchased during the year.
Hathaway Company purchased a copying machine for 8,700 on October 1, 2019. The machines residual value was 500 and its expected service life was 5 years. Hathaway computes depreciation expense to the nearest whole month. Required: 1. Compute depredation expense (rounded to the nearest dollar) for 2019 and 2020 using the: a. straight-line method b. sum-of-the-years-digits method c. double-declining-balance method 2. Next Level Which method produces the highest book value at the end of 2020? 3. Next Level Which method produces the highest charge to income in 2020? 4. Next Level Over the life of the asset, which method produces the greatest amount of depreciation expense?
At the beginning of 2020, Holden Companys controller asked you to prepare correcting entries for the following three situations: 1. Machine X was purchased for 100,000 on January 1, 2015. Straight-line depreciation has been recorded for 5 years, and the Accumulated Depreciation account has a balance of 45,000. The estimated residual value remains at 10,000, but the service life is now estimated to be 1 year longer than originally estimated. 2. Machine Y was purchased for 40,000 on January 1, 2018. It had an estimated residual value of 4,000 and an estimated service life of 8 years. It has been depreciated under the sum-of-the-years-digits method for 2 years. Now, the company has decided to change to the straight-line method. 3. Machine Z was purchased for 80,000 on January 1, 2019. Double-declining-balance depreciation has been recorded for 1 year. The estimated residual value is 8,000 and the estimated service life is 5 years. The computation of the depreciation erroneously included the estimated residual value. Required: Prepare any necessary correcting journal entries for each situation. Also prepare the journal entry for each situation to record the depreciation for 2020. Ignore income taxes.
On January 1, 2014, Klinefelter Company purchased a building for 520,000. The building had an estimated life of 20 years and an estimated residual value of 20,000. The company has been depreciating the building using straight-line depreciation. At the beginning of 2020, the following independent situations occur: a. The company estimates that the building has a remaining life of 10 years (for a total of 16 years). b. The company changes to the sum-of-the-years-digits method. c. The company discovers that it had ignored the estimated residual value in the computation of the annual depreciation each year. Required: For each of the independent situations, prepare all journal entries related to the building for 2020. Ignore income taxes.
Referring to PA7 where Kenzie Company purchased a 3-D printer for $450,000, consider how the purchase of the printer impacts not only depreciation expense each year but also the assets book value. What amount will be recorded as depreciation expense each year, and what will the book value be at the end of each year after depreciation is recorded?
Ariel Company purchased a boring machine on January 1, 2020 for P8,100,000. The useful life of the machine is estimated at three years with a residual value of P600,000. During the useful life, the expected units of production from the machine are 10,000 units for 2020, 9,000 units for 2021 and 6,000 units for 2022. What is the depreciation expense for 2021 using the most appropriate depreciation method?
Novak Company purchased a piece of equipment at the beginning of 2022. The equipment cost $402,120. It has an estimated service life of 8 years and an expected salvage value of $74,160.

This schedule shows that $36,440 will be depreciated for a particular calendar year. Determine for what particular year the depreciation amount for this asset will be $36,440. Year of depreciation
