Due to rapid technological advances in the industry, management decided that the patent would benefit thecompany over a total of six years rather than the nine-year life being used to amortize its cost. The decision wasmade at the beginning of 2018.Required:Prepare the year-end journal entry for patent amortization in 2018. No amortization was recorded during the year.

At the end of 2020, Bonita Company is conducting an impairment test and needs to develop a fair value estimate for machinery used in its manufacturing operations. Given the nature of Bonita's production process, the equipment is for special use. (No secondhand market values are available.) The equipment will be obsolete in 2 years, and Bonita's accountants have developed the following cash flow information for the equipment. Year 2021 2022 2022 Net Cash Flow Estimate $5,440 9,500 $(460) 2,180 3,800 Scrap value $530 970 Probability Assessment 40% Click here to view factor tables 60% 20% 60% 20% 50% 50% Using expected cash flow and present value techniques, determine the fair value of the machinery at the end of 2020. Use a 6% discount rate. Assume all cash flows occur at the end of the year. (Round factor values to 5 decimal places, e.g. 1.25124 and final answer to O decimal places, e.g. 458,581.)

Paradise, a manufacturer located in rural New Brunswick, purchased a widget-making machine in2017 and depreciated it using the double-declining-balance method. As at Paradise’s fiscal year-end in2021 (March 31, 2021), the net book value of the widget-making machine was $500,000.On March 31, 2021, Paradise realized that there were breakthroughs in widget manufacturing whichwould put their machine into obsolescence in exactly 7 years. The widget-making machine wasappraised to have a fair value of $400,000; costs of disposal of $15,000; future discounted netcashflows of $415,000; and future undiscounted net cashflows of $450,000.Paradise plans to use the machine for the next 7 years while it invests in research and development(R&D) to construct an in-house piece of widget-making equipment. Starting on April 1, 2021, however,Paradise will switch to the straight line method of depreciation.Required(a) If required, prepare the journal entry(ies) in good form to record impairment loss…

Susan Co. has a machine that cost $810,000 on March 20, 2017. This old machine had an estimated life of ten years and a salvage value of $30,000. On December 23, 2021, the old machine is exchanged for a new machine with a fair value of $522,000. The exchange lacked commercial substance. Susan also received $58,000 cash. Assume that the last fiscal period ended on December 31, 2020, and that straight-line depreciation is used. Show the calculation of the amount of gain or loss to be recognized by Susan Co. from the exchange.
