Explanation / Answer

A.

Straight line depreciation on equipment sold on May 1

Depreciation = (cost - salvage value) / useful life

= (750,000 - 0) / 10 = 75,000

Accumulated depreciation from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2017 = 4 * 75,000 = 300,000

Depreciation from January 1, 2018 to May 1, 2018 = 75,000 * 4 /12 = 25,000

Total accumulated depreciation = 300,000 + 25,000 = 325,000

Straight line depreciation on equipment retired on December 31

Depreciation = (cost - salvage value) / useful life

= (500,000 - 0) / 10 = 50,000

Accumulated depreciation from December 31, 2008 to December 31, 2018 = 10 * 50,000 = 500,000

JOURNAL ENTRIES

B.

Depreciation on Buildings = (cost - salvage value) / useful life

(28,500,000 - 0) / 50 = 570,000

Cost of equipment after sale and retairment = 48,000,000 - 750,000 - 500,000 = 3,550,000

Depreciation on equipment = (cost - salvage value) / useful life = (3,550,000 - 10) / 10 = 355,000

Depreciation on equipment purchased on July 1 = (2,500,000 - 0) / 10 * 6 / 12 = 125,000

Total depreciation on equipment = 355,000 + 125,000 = 480,000

ADJUSTING ENTRIES FOR DEPRECIATION

C.

Accumulated depreciation on Buildings = 12,100,000 + 570,000 = 12,670,000

Accumulated depreciation on Equiment sold and retaired = 825,000

Accumulated depreciation on equipment = 5,000,000 - 825,000 + 480,000 = 4,655,000
