Question

1. Record entries from the transaction and event list provided below in proper journal entry format. NOTE: You are recording entries for the fiscal year 2019 (Jan 1 – Dec 31) and make adjusting entries at year-end. This list must be chronologically organized. Make sure that I can easily identify the journal entry or adjusting journal entry with the related transaction/event. Show your work if the entry requires you to make a calculation (i.e. depreciation, interest expense, etc.).

January

1. On January 1st, the company issued 280,000 additional shares (par of $.25) to raise capital for the New Year. Assume no change in price from Dec 31, 2018.

2. Purchased a truck for $140,000 cash on the 1st of January. The truck will be depreciated over an 8 year period. You decide to use the 200% declining-balance depreciation method because it is determined that the truck will be more productive when it is newer. The truck has an estimated salvage value of $8,000.
