Required: For each of the independent situations, prepare all journal entries related to the building for 2020. Ignore income taxes.
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.
Hunter Company purchased a light truck on January 2, 2019 for 18,000. The truck, which will be used for deliveries, has the following characteristics: Estimated life: 5 years Estimated residual value: 3,000 Depreciation method for financial statements: straight-line method Depreciation for income tax purposes: MACRS (3-year life) From 2019 through 2023, each year, Hunter had sales of 100,000, cost of goods sold of 60,000, and operating expenses (excluding depreciation) of 15,000.

Prepare the journal entries necessary to record the preceding events. 2. Assume that the company expected all the trucks to last 4 years and be retired for 1,600 each.

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.
