Depreciation for partial years is recorded to the nearest full month. In 2001, after almost 4 years of experience with the equipment, management decided that the estimated life of the equipment should be revised from 10 years to 7 years. No change was made in the estimate of residual value. The revised estimate of useful life was decided on prior to recording to depreciation for the period ended December 31, 2001. Instructions: Prepare journal entries in chronological order for the above events, beginning with the purchase of the machinery on January 4, 1999.
