Bob Co purchased a building for $50,000 and began depreciating assuming a salvage value of $5,000 and useful life of 20 years. After 5 years, it was determined that the salvage value would be $10,000, but the useful life would only be for an additional 10 years. Calculate the depreciation, assuming straight line, for Year 1 and Year 6 of the building, and prepare the necessary journals.
Strong Metals Incorporated purchased a new stamping machine at the beginning of the year at a cost of $1,235,000. The estimated residual value was $65,000. Assume that the estimated useful life was five years and the estimated productive life of the machine was 300,000 units. Actual annual production was as follows: Year Units 1 70,000 2 67,000 3 50,000 4 73,000 5 40,000 Required: 1. Complete a separate depreciation schedule for each of the alternative methods. Straight-line. Units-of-production. Double-declining-balance.
Prepare the journal entry to record TWO of the following scenarios. Please be sure to identify which scenarios you have selected. (a) Discarding of Machine #1: Original cost, $25,000; accumulated depreciation, $20,000. (b) Sale of Machine #2: Original cost, $50,000; accumulated depreciation, $35,000; sold for $18,000 cash. (c) Sale of Machine #3: Original cost, $75,000; accumulated depreciation, $65,000; sold for $4,000 cash.
On August 3, Cinco Construction purchased special-purpose equipment at a cost of $9,900,000. The useful life of the equipment was estimated to be eight years, with an estimated residual value of $20,000. a. Compute the depreciation expense to be recognized each calendar year for financial reporting purposes under the straight-line depreciation method (half-year convention). b. Compute the depreciation expense to be recognized each calendar year for financial reporting purposes under the 200 percent declining-balance method (half-year convention) with a switch to straight-line when it will maximize depreciation expense. c. Which of these two depreciation methods (straight-line or double-declining-balance) results in the highest net income for financial reporting purposes during the first two years of the equipment’s use?
Josephine Company acquired a tract of land containing an extractable natural resource. The entity is required by the purchase contract to restore the land to a condition suitable for recreational use after it has extracted the natural resource. Geological survey indicated that the recoverable reserves would be 2,000,000 tons and that the extraction will be completed in five years. Relevant cost of information follows: Land 9,000,000 Exploration and development costs 1,000,000 Expected cash flow for restoration costs 1,500,000 Credit- adjusted risk-free interest rate 10% PV of 1 at 10% for 5 periods 0.62 What is the depletion charge per ton of extracted material?
Salter Mining Company purchased the Northern Tier Mine for $50 million cash. The mine was estimated to contain 6.47 million tons of ore and to have a residual value of $1.5 million.During the first year of mining operations at the Northern Tier Mine, 55,000 tons of ore were mined, of which 18,000 tons were sold. a. Prepare a journal entry to record depletion during the year. b. Show how the Northern Tier Mine, and its accumulated depletion, would appear in Salter Mining Company's balance sheet after the first year of operations.
The Masters Corporation purchased a piece of machinery for $300,000. The expected useful life (EUL) of the machine is 10 years. Machinery of this type normally has a salvage value of approximately 17 percent of the purchase price (use $50,000 for salvage value in this case.) Using the accounting/finance functions in Excel, complete the depreciation worksheet in Exercise11.xls in the following steps: 1. Use the following three methods to compute the depreciation in columns B, C, and D: (1) double- declining balance, (2) straight-line, and (3) sum-of-the-years’ digits. Columns F, G, and H should show the book value of each method for the 10 periods (10 years). Formulas should be used in the empty cells so that a change in the cost, salvage value, or expected useful life of the machinery automatically updates the worksheet. 2.
