IMPACT OF IMPROVEMENTS AND REPLACEMENTS ON THE CALCULATION OF DEPRECIATION On January 1, 20-1, Dans Demolition purchased two jackhammers for 2,500 each with a salvage value of 100 each and estimated useful lives of four years. On January 1, 20-2, a stronger blade to improve performance was installed in Jackhammer A for 800 cash and the compressor was replaced in Jackhammer B for 200 cash. The compressor is expected to extend the life of Jackhammer B one year beyond the original estimate. REQUIRED 1. Using the straight-line method, prepare general journal entries for depreciation on December 31, 20-1, for Jackhammers A and B. 2. Enter the transactions for January 20-2 in a general journal. 3. Assuming no other additions, improvements, or replacements, calculate the depreciation expense for each jackhammer for 20-2 through 20-4.
When depreciation is recorded each period, what account is debited? a. Depreciation Expense b. Cash c. Accumulated Depreciation d. The fixed asset account involved Use the following information for Multiple-Choice Questions 7-4 through 7-6: Cox Inc. acquired a machine for on January 1, 2019. The machine has a salvage value of $20,000 and a 5-year useful life. Cox expects the machine to run for 15,000 machine hours. The machine was actually used for 4,200 hours in 2019 and 3,450 hours in 2020.
Montello Inc. purchases a delivery truck for $15,000. The truck has a salvage value of $3,000 and is expected to be driven for 120,000 miles. Montello uses the units-of-production depreciation method and in year one it expects to use the truck for 23,000 miles. Calculate the annual depreciation expense.
Montezuma Inc. purchases a delivery truck for $15,000. The truck has a salvage value of $3,000 and is expected to be driven for eight years. Montezuma uses the straight-line depreciation method. Calculate the annual depreciation expense. After three years of recording depreciation, Montezuma determines that the delivery truck will only be useful for another three years and that the salvage value will increase to $4,000. Determine the depreciation expense for the final three years of the assets life, and create the journal entry for year four.
Urquhart Global purchases a building to house its administrative offices for $500,000. The best estimate of the salvage value at the time of purchase was $45,000, and it is expected to be used for forty years. Urquhart uses the straight-line depreciation method for all buildings. After ten years of recording depreciation, Urquhart determines that the building will be useful for a total of fifty years instead of forty. Calculate annual depreciation expense for the first ten years. Determine the depreciation expense for the final forty years of the assets life, and create the journal entry for year eleven.
Montello Inc. purchases a delivery truck for $25,000. The truck has a salvage value of $6,000 and is expected to be driven for ten years. Montello uses the straight-line depreciation method. Calculate the annual depreciation expense.
Loban Company purchased four cars for 9,000 each and expects that they will be sold in 3 years for 1,500 each. The company uses group depreciation on a straight-line basis. Required: 1. Prepare journal entries to record the acquisition and the first years depreciation expense. 2. If one of the cars is sold at the beginning of the second year for 7,000, what journal entry is required?
Montello Inc. purchases a delivery truck for $25,000. The truck has a salvage value of $6,000 and is expected to be driven for 125,000 miles. Montello uses the units-of-production depreciation method, and in year one the company expects the truck to be driven for 26,000 miles; in year two, 30,000 miles; and in year three, 40,000 miles. Consider how the purchase of the truck will impact Montellos depreciation expense each year and what the trucks book value will be each year after depreciation expense is recorded.
Grandorf Company replaced the engine in a truck for 8,000 and expects the new engine will extend the life of the truck two years beyond the original estimated life. Related information is provided below. Cost of truck 65,000 Salvage value 5,000 Original estimated life 6 years The truck was purchased on January 1, 20-1. The engine was replaced on January 1, 20-6. Using straight-line depreciation, compute depreciation expense for 20-6.
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?
A machine costing 350,000 has a salvage value of 15,000 and an estimated life of three years. Prepare depreciation schedules reporting the depreciation expense, accumulated depreciation, and book value of the machine for each year under the double-declining-balance and sum-of-the-years-digits methods. For the double-declining-balance method, round the depreciation rate to two decimal places.
To test your formulas, assume the machine purchased had an estimated useful life of three years (20,000, 30,000, and 50,000 hours, respectively). Enter the new information in the Data Section of the worksheet. Does your depreciation total 320,000 under all three methods? There are three common errors made by students completing this worksheet. Lets clear up two of them. One, an asset that has a three-year life should have no depreciation claimed in Year 4. This can be corrected using an =IF statement in Year 4. For example, the correct formula in cell C32 is =IF(B32D9,0,(D7D8)/D9) or =IF(B32D9, 0, SLN(D7, D8, D9)). You may wish to edit what you have already entered rather than retype it. Two, as mentioned in requirement 2, the double-declining-balance calculation needs to be modified in the last year of the assets life. Assuming you have already modified the formula for Year 4 (per instructions in step 2), alter the formula for Year 3 also. If you corrected any formulas, test their correctness by trying different estimated useful lives (between 3 and 8) in cell E9. Then reset the Data Section to the original values, save the revised file as DEPREC2, and reprint the worksheet to show the correct formulas. The third common error doesnt need to be corrected in this problem. The general form of the double-declining-balance formula needs to be modified to check the net book value of the asset each year to make sure it does not go below salvage value. =DDB does this automatically, but if you are writing your own formulas, this gets very complicated and is beyond the scope of the problem.
