On August 1, 2019, Kern Company leased a machine to Day Company for a 6-year period requiring payments of 10,000 at the beginning of each year.

The Scampini Supplies Company recently purchased a new delivery truck. The new truck cost $22,500, and it is expected to generate net after-tax operating cash flows, including depreciation, of $6,250 per year. The truck has a 5-year expected life. The expected salvage values after tax adjustments for the truck are given here. The company’s cost of capital is 10%. Should the firm operate the truck until the end of its 5-year physical life? If not, then what is its optimal economic life? Would the introduction of salvage values, in addition to operating cash flows, ever reduce the expected NPV and/or IRR of a project?

Montezuma Inc. purchases a delivery truck for $20,000. The truck has a salvage value of $8,000 and is expected to be driven for ten years. Montezuma uses the straight-line depreciation method. Calculate the annual depreciation expense. After five years of recording depreciation, Montezuma determines that the delivery truck will be useful for another five years (ten years in total, as originally expected) and that the salvage value will increase to $10,000. Determine the depreciation expense for the final five years of the assets life, and create the journal entry for years 6â€“10 (the entry will be the same for each of the five years).
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.
