The company records annual depreciation expense at the end of each calendar year. On January 11, 2017, the company purchased a machine costing $117,000. The machine's useful life was estimated to be 12 years with an estimated residual value of $17,200. Depreciation for partial years is recorded to the nearest full month. In 2021, after almost five years of experience with the machine, management decided to revise its estimated life from 12 years to 20 years. No change was made in the estimated residual value. The revised estimate of the useful life was decided prior to recording annual depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2021. a. Prepare journal entries in chronological order for the given events, beginning with the purchase of the machinery on January 11, 2017.

- On January 1, 20X1, the company purchased an equipment for $180,000. The equipment has a useful life of 12 years with no residual value. The company uses straight-line depreciation and revalues the equipment every three years. The company’s reporting date is December 31. The equipment’s fair value is $117,000 at December 31, 20X3, and $100,000 at December 31, 20X6. Prepare journal entries to revalue the equipment as at December 31, 20X3 and December 31, 20X6 (using the asset adjustment method).arrow_forwardFor the tangible and intangible assets acquired in the preceding transactions, determine the amount of depreciation and amortization that Palmer Cook Music Productions should report for the quarter ended March 31. For convenience, the equipment and vehicle are depreciated the same way, using the straight-line method with a useful life of five years and no residual value. The building is depreciated using the double-declining-balance method, with a 10-year useful life and residual value of $20,000. TIP: Calculate depreciation from the acquisition date to the end of the quarter.arrow_forwardSwanson & Hiller, Inc., purchased a new machine on September 1 of the current year at a cost of $149,000. The machine’s estimated useful life at the time of the purchase was five years, and its residual value was $9,000. The company reports on a calendar year basis. 1) Prepare a complete depreciation schedule, beginning with the current year, using the 200 percent declining-balance method. (Assume that the half-year convention is used). 2) Prepare a complete depreciation schedule, beginning with the current year, using the 150 percent declining-balance, switching to straight-line when that maximizes the expense.
