Enter the unadjusted trial balance on an end-of-period spreadsheet, and complete the spreadsheet.
Explanation of Solution
Spreadsheet: A spreadsheet is a worksheet. It is used while preparing a financial statement. It is a type of form having multiple columns and it is used in the adjustment process. The use of a worksheet is optional for any organization. A worksheet can neither be considered as a journal nor a part of the general ledger.
The unadjusted trial balance on an end-of-period spreadsheet is prepared as follows:
Table (1)
Hence, the unadjusted trial balance on an end-of-period spreadsheet is prepared and completed.

- 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.arrow_forwardDuring 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.arrow_forwardDuring 2019, White Company determined that machinery previously depreciated over a 7-year life had a total estimated useful life of only 5 years. An accounting change was made in 2019 to reflect the change in estimate.
