This cost figure included the following expenditures: Purchase price Freight charges Installation charges Annual maintenance charge Total The company estimated an eight-year useful life for the equipment. No residual value is anticipated. The double-declining-balance method was used to determine depreciation expense for 2022 and 2023. In 2024, after the 2023 financial statements were issued, the company decided to switch to the straight-line depreciation method for this equipment. At that time, the company's controller discovered that the original cost of the equipment incorrectly included one year of annual maintenance charges for the equipment. Required: 1.

The company capitalized the machine and depreciated it in 2022 using the double-declining-balance method of depreciation. The company has a policy of using the straight-line method to depreciate equipment, as this method best reflects the benefits to the company over the life of its machinery. However, the company accountant neglected to follow company policy when he used the double-declining-balance method.
