May 1 Sold equipment that cost $909,000 when purchased on January 1, 2006. The equipment was sold for $257,550.

909,000 / 10 = 90,900 annual depreciation

90,900 x 7 = 636,300 depreciation through 2012

90,900 x 4/12 = 30,300 depreciation expense for 2013

Dr Depreciation Expense--Equipment 30,300

Cr Accumulated Depreciation--Equipment 30,300


Dr Cash 257,550

Dr Accumulated Depreciation--Equipment 666,600

Cr Equipment 909,000
