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.
At the end of 2020, while auditing Sandlin Companys books, before the books have been closed, you find the following items: a. A building with a 30-year life (no residual value, depreciated using the straight-line method) was purchased on January 1, 2020, by issuing a 90,000 non-interest-bearing, 4-year note. The entry made to record the purchase was a debit to Building and a credit to Notes Payable for 90,000; 12% is a fair rate of interest on the note. b. The inventory at the end of 2020 was found to be overstated by 15,000. At the same time, it was discovered that the inventory at the end of 2019 had been overstated by 35,000. The company uses the perpetual inventory system. c. For the last 3 years, the company has failed to accrue salaries and w-ages. The correct amounts at the end of each year were: 2018, 12,000; 2019, 18,000; and 2020, 10,000. Required: 1. Prepare journal entries to correct the errors. Ignore income taxes. 2. Assume, instead, that the company discovered the errors after it had closed the books. Prepare journal entries to correct the errors. Ignore income taxes.
During 2019, Ryel Companys controller asked you to prepare correcting journal entries for the following three situations: 1. Machine A was purchased for 50,000 on January 1, 2014. Straight-line depreciation has been recorded for 5 years, and the Accumulated Depreciation account has a balance of 25,000. The estimated residual value remains at 5,000, but the service life is now estimated to be 1 year longer than estimated originally. 2. Machine B was purchased for 40,000 on January 1, 2017. It had an estimated residual value of 5,000 and an estimated service life of 10 years. it has been depreciated under the double-declining-balance method for 2 years. Now, at the beginning of the third year, Ryel has decided to change to the straight-line method. 3. Machine C was purchased for 20,000 on January 1, 2018, Double-declining-balance depreciation has been recorded for 1 year. The estimated residual value of the machine is 2,000 and the estimated service life is 5 years. The computation of the depreciation erroneously included the estimated residual value. Required: Prepare any necessary correcting journal entries for each situation. Also prepare the journal entry necessary for each situation to record depreciation expense for 2019.
The following are independent errors: a. In January 2019, repair costs of 9,000 were debited to the Machinery account. At the beginning of 2019, the book value of the machinery was 100,000. No residual value is expected, the remaining estimated life is 10 years, and straight-line depreciation is used. b. All purchases of materials for construction contracts still in progress have been immediately expensed. It is discovered that the use of these materials was 10,000 during 2018 and 12,000 during 2019. c. Depreciation on manufacturing equipment has been excluded from manufacturing costs and treated as a period expense. During 2019, 40,000 of depreciation was accounted for in that manner. Production was 15,000 units during 2019, of which 3,000 remained in inventory at the end of the year. Assume there was no inventory at the beginning of 2019. Required: Prepare journal entries for the preceding errors discovered during 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.
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.

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?

At the beginning of 2020, Holden Companys controller asked you to prepare correcting entries for the following three situations: 1. Machine X was purchased for 100,000 on January 1, 2015. Straight-line depreciation has been recorded for 5 years, and the Accumulated Depreciation account has a balance of 45,000.

Now, the company has decided to change to the straight-line method. 3. Machine Z was purchased for 80,000 on January 1, 2019. Double-declining-balance depreciation has been recorded for 1 year. The estimated residual value is 8,000 and the estimated service life is 5 years. The computation of the depreciation erroneously included the estimated residual value.

Bliss Company owns an asset with an estimated life of 15 years and an estimated residual value of zero. Bliss uses the straight -line method of depreciation.
