Annual depreciation expense on a building purchased a few years ago (using the straight-line method) is $4,300. The cost of the building was $86,000. The current book value of the equipment (January 1, 2018) is $73,100. At the time of purchase, the asset was estimated to have a zero salvage value. On January 1, 2018, the company decided to reduce the original useful life by 25% and to establish a salvage value of $4,300. The firm also decided double-declining-balance depreciation was more appropriate. Ignore tax effects. Required:1. Prepare the journal entry, if any, to report the accounting change under GAAP.2. Record the annual depreciation for 2018.

Buch Corporation purchased Machine Z at the beginning of Year 1 at a cost of $100,000. The machine is used in the production of Product X. The machine is expected to have a useful life of 10 years and no residual value. The straightline method of depreciation is used. Adverse economic conditions develop in Year 3 that result in a significant decline in demand for Product X. At December 31, Year 3, the company develops the following estimates related to Machine Z:
Expected future cash flow
$75,000
Present value of expected future cash flows
$55,000
Selling price
$70,000
Costs of disposal
$7,000
At the end of Year 5, Buch’s management determines that there has been a substantial improvement in economic conditions resulting in a strengthening of demand for Product X. The following estimates related to Machine Z are developed at December 31, Year 5:
Expected future cash flow
$70,000

- On January 1, 2014, Klinefelter Company purchased a building for 520,000. The building had an estimated life of 20 years and an estimated residual value of 20,000. The company has been depreciating the building using straight-line depreciation. At the beginning of 2020, the following independent situations occur: a. The company estimates that the building has a remaining life of 10 years (for a total of 16 years). b. The company changes to the sum-of-the-years-digits method. c. The company discovers that it had ignored the estimated residual value in the computation of the annual depreciation each year. Required: For each of the independent situations, prepare all journal entries related to the building for 2020. Ignore income taxes.arrow_forwardAlbany Corporation purchased equipment at the beginning of Year 1 for 75,000. The asset does not have a residual value and is estimated to be in service for 8 years. Calculate the depreciation expense for Years 1 and 2 using the double-declining-balance method. Round to the nearest dollar.arrow_forwardKam Company purchased a machine on January 2, 2019, for 20,000. The machine had an expected life of 8 years and a residual value of 300. The double-declining-balance method of depreciation is used. Required: 1. Compute the depreciation expense for each year of the assets life and book value at the end of each year. 2. Assuming that the company has a policy of always changing to the straight-line method at the midpoint of the assets life, compute the depreciation expense for each year of the assets life. 3. Assuming that the company always changes to the straight-line method at the beginning of the year when the annual straight-line amount exceeds the double-declining-balance amount, compute the depreciation expense for each year of the assets life.arrow_forward
- Susquehanna Company purchased an asset at the beginning of the current year for 250,000. The estimated residual value is 25,000. Susquehanna estimates that the asset will be used for 10 years and uses straight-line depreciation.

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_forwardHathaway Company purchased a copying machine for 8,700 on October 1, 2019.

- Bliss Company owns an asset with an estimated life of 15 years and an estimated residual value of zero. Bliss uses the straight -line method of depreciation. At the beginning of the sixth year, the assets book value is 200,000 and Bliss changes the estimate of the assets life to 25 years, so that 20 years now remain in the assets life. Explain how this change will be accounted for in Blisss financial statements, and compute the current and future annual depreciation expense.arrow_forwardEquipment with a cost of $446,900 has an estimated residual value of $51,400, has an estimated useful life of 35 years, and is depreciated by the straight-line method. a.
