What amount should Pete Company have in its equipment account
after the purchase?
Equipment Value = Original Cost + Installation and delivery
costs
= $120,000 + $8,000 = $128,000
What amount of depreciation expense would Pete Company record in
2019?
Depreciation Expense = (Original Cost - Salvage Value) / Useful
Life
= ($128,000 - $12000) / 8 = $14500 per year
What amount of accumulated depreciation expense would Pete
Company report on its December 31, 2021 balance sheet?
Accumulated depreciation on December 31, 2021 = $14500 x 3 =
$43500
What is the book value of the equipment on December 31,
2023?
Accumulated depreciation on December 31, 2023 = $14500 x 5 =
$72500
Book Value of Equipment = Original Cost - Accumulated
Depreciation
= $128000 - $72500 = $55500
What amount of gain or loss would Pete Company record if it sold
the equipment for $36,000 on January 1, 2025?Accumulated
depreciation on December 31, 2024 = $14500 x 6 = $87000
Book Value of Equipment = Original Cost - Accumulated
Depreciation
= $128000 - $87000 = $41000
Since sale value is less than book value, there is loss on
sale
i.e. $41000 - $36000 = $5000
