depreciated on a straight-line basis. On January 2, 2020, as a result of additional information, the company determined that the equipment has a remaining useful life of 4 years with a $3,000 salvage value. - 2.

- Chahal Company’s fiscal year-end is December 31. The company purchased a machine costing $129,000 on April 1, 2022. The machine is expected to be obsolete after five years (60 months), and thereafter no longer useful to the company. The estimated salvage value is $6,000. The company’s depreciation policy is to record depreciation for the portion of the year that the asset is in service. Compute depreciation expense for 2022 under the straight‑line depreciation method. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Do not include a $ sign in your answer.)arrow_forwardAt the beginning of 2018, Bridgeport Company acquired equipment costing $187,400. It was estimated that this equipment would have a useful life of 6 years and a salvage value of $18,740 at that time. The straight-line method of depreciation was considered the most appropriate to use with this type of equipment. Depreciation is to be recorded at the end of each year. During 2020 (the third year of the equipment's life), the company's engineers reconsidered their expectations, and estimated that the equipment's useful life would probably be 7 years (in total) instead of 6 years. The estimated salvage value was not changed at that time. However, during 2023 the estimated salvage value was reduced to $5,000. Indicate how much depreciation expense should be recorded each year for this equipment, by completing the following table.

The useful life was estimated to be 5 years and the salvage value was estimated at $26,000. The truck is depreciated using the straight-line method. When preparing adjusting entries for December 31, 2023, it was discovered that the salvage value had not been deducted when computing depreciation for 2021 and 2022. The correct amount of deprecation was recorded for 2023. What additional journal entry should be made? Answer a. Debit Accumulated Depreciation for $10,400 and credit Retained Earnings for $10,400. b. Debit Accumulated Deprecation for $15,600 and credit Depreciation Expense for $15,600. c. Debit Accumulated Deprecation for $16,000 and credit Retained Earnings for $16,000. d. No additional entry should be made as the error will be accounted for in the current period and prospectively.arrow_forward
