- Depreciation On July 1, 2016, Dexter Corp. buys a computer system for $260,000 in cash. Assume that the computer is expected to have a four-year life and an estimated salvage value of $20,000 at the end of that time. Required Prepare the journal entry to record the purchase of the computer on July 1, 2016. Compute the depreciable cost of the computer. Using the straight-line method, compute the monthly depreciation. Prepare the adjusting entry to record depreciation at the end of July 2016. Compute the computers carrying value that will be shown on Dexters balance sheet prepared on December 31, 2016.arrow_forwardChange in Estimate Assume that Bloomer Company purchased a new machine on January 1, 2016, for $80,000. The machine has an estimated useful life of nine years and a residual value of $8,000. Bloomer has chosen to use the straight-line method of depreciation. On January 1, 2018, Bloomer discovered that the machine would not be useful beyond December 31, 2021, and estimated its value at that time to be $2,000. Required Calculate the depreciation expense, accumulated depreciation, and book value of the asset for each year 2016 to 2021. Was the depreciation recorded wrong in 2016 and 2017? If so, why was it not corrected?arrow_forwardRevising depreciation estimates Hard Bodies Co. is a fitness chain that has just completed its second year of operations. At the beginning of its first fiscal year, the company purchased fitness equipment at a cost of 600,000 and estimated that the equipment would have a useful life of five years and no residual value. The company uses the straight-line depreciation method. The company reported net income for the first two years of operations as follows: Mike Gambit, the companys chief financial officer (CFO), has recently run financial models to predict future net income, and he expects net losses to continue at (2,000) per year for the next three years. James Steed, the president of Hard Bodies, is concerned about these predictions, as he is under pressure from the companys owner to return the company to Year 1 net income levels. If the company does not meet these goals, both he and Mike will likely be fired. Mike suggests that the company change the estimated useful life of the fitness equipment to 10 years and increase the equipments estimated residual value to 50,000. This will reduce depreciation expense and increase net income. 1. Evaluate the decision to change the equipments estimated useful life and estimated residual value to improve earnings. How does this change impact the usefulness of the companys net income for external decision makers? 2. If Mike and James make the change, are they acting in an ethical manner? Explain.arrow_forward
- IMPACT OF IMPROVEMENTS AND REPLACEMENTS ON THE CALCULATION OF DEPRECIATION On January 1, 20-1, Dans Demolition purchased two jackhammers for 2,500 each with a salvage value of 100 each and estimated useful lives of four years. On January 1, 20-2, a stronger blade to improve performance was installed in Jackhammer A for 800 cash and the compressor was replaced in Jackhammer B for 200 cash. The compressor is expected to extend the life of Jackhammer B one year beyond the original estimate. REQUIRED 1. Using the straight-line method, prepare general journal entries for depreciation on December 31, 20-1, for Jackhammers A and B. 2. Enter the transactions for January 20-2 in a general journal. 3. Assuming no other additions, improvements, or replacements, calculate the depreciation expense for each jackhammer for 20-2 through 20-4.arrow_forwardGroup and Composite Depreciation Chcadle Company purchased a fleet of 20 delivery trucks for 8,000 each on January 2, 2019. It decided to use composite depreciation on a straight-line basis and calculated the depreciation from the following schedule: Cheadle actually retired the trucks according to the following schedule (assume each truck was retired at the beginning of the year): Required: 1. 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. Using group depreciation, prepare journal entries for all 6 years, assuming the company retired the trucks as shown by the latter schedule.arrow_forwardRevision of Depreciation On January 1, 2017, Blizzards-R-Us purchased a snow-blowing machine for $125,000. The machine was expected to have a residual value of $12,000 at the end of its 5-year useful life. On January 1, 2019, Blizzards-R-Us concluded that the machine would have a remaining useful life of 6 years with a residual value of $3,600. Required: 1. Determine the revised annual depreciation expense for 2019 using the straight-line method. 2. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION How does the revision in depreciation affect the Blizzards-R-Us financial statements?arrow_forward
- Choice Among Depreciation Methods Walnut Ridge Production Inc. purchased a new computerized video editing machine at a cost of $450,000. The System has a residual value of $64,000 and an expected life of 5 years. Required: 1. Compute depreciation expense, accumulated depreciation, and book value for the first 3 years of the machines life using the (a) straight-line method and (b) double-declining-balance method. 2. Which method would produce the largest income in the first, second, and third years of the assets life? 3. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Why might the controller of Walnut Ridge Production be interested in the effect of choosing a depreciation method? Evaluate the legitimacy of these interests.arrow_forwardDepreciation Expense During 2016, Carter Company acquired three assets with the following costs, estimated useful lives, and estimated salvage values: The company uses the straight-line method to depreciate all assets and computes depreciation to the nearest month. For example, the computer system will be depreciated for six months in 2016. Required Compute the depreciation expense that Carter will record on each of the three assets for 2016. Comment on the following statement: Accountants could save time and money by simply expensing the cost of long-term assets when they are purchased. In addition, this would be more accurate because depreciation requires estimates of useful life and salvage value.arrow_forward
