Question

Equipment with an original cost of $65,000 and accumulated depreciation of $52,000 was deemed unusable and was sold for $500 scrap value. A new machine was acquired for $75,700. The invoice was marked 2/10, n/30, but McNally did not pay in time to take advantage of the 2% discount for early payment and thus paid the gross amount of $75,700. Wiring was improved to accommodate the needs of the new machinery at a cost of $500. Related software to install in the machine required for operation was purchased for $3,000. Installation and testing of the new machinery cost $2,500. Regular machine maintenance was carried out for $22,000. A major overhaul was done on heavy machinery for a cost of $75,000. This overhaul is expected to be completed every five years. The building roof was replaced during the period at a cost of $44,800 to improve the insulation in the building and save on heating costs. The old roof had an original cost of $20,400 and was three-quarters depreciated. Two machines were acquired for a lump-sum amount of $53,800. One machine had an appraised value of $40,000 and the other, $20,000. Land and building were acquired from a member of the Board of Directors in exchange for 325,000 of the company's own common shares. The land was appraised at $75,000 and the building, $400,000. The facility will be used for long-term storage. The market value of common shares has been around $1.25 per share this year, with weekly highs and lows ranging from $1.80 to $0.95, respectively. The company spent $630,000 in a research lab program this year. It was successful in developing three new commercial projects, which represented $244,000 of the expenditures budget. Legal fees associated with the three successful projects amount to $55,000. McNally paved its factory parking lot, previously a dirt lot, at a cost of $160,100. Prepare journal entries to record the transactions listed above. State any assumptions made.
