Date. Account Title. Debit. Credit 31 Dec 2020. Depreciation $36,700

Machinery. $36,700

Explanation :

Depreciation = ( cost of asset - residual value ) ÷ useful life of asset

Depreciation = ( $462,000 - $41,000 ) ÷ 10

= $421,000 ÷ 10

Depreciation per year = $42100

Depreciation from 1 Jan 2016 to 31 December 2019 = depreciation per year × No of years

Depreciation for 4 years = $42100×4

Depreciation for 4 years =$168,400

Book value of asset on 01 January 2020 is = $462,000 - depreciation till date

Book value = $462,000 - $168,400

Book value on 31 December 2019 = $293,600

On 31 December 2020 , the management has that determined the machines useful life is now 12 years.

Therefore depreciation for the year ended 31 December 2020 is as follows

As salvage value is NILL therefore, the whole amount of remaining carrying amount is now depreciable value over the remaining useful life of 8 years.

Depreciation = Book value ÷ remaining useful life

Depreciation = $293,600 ÷ 8

Depreciation for the year ended 31 December 2020 = $36,700
