Milan Clothing Co. bought a machine for $40,000 on January 1, 2020. The machine has a useful life of 4 years, and a residual value of $3,000.
Part A Assume that Milan Clothing Co. uses the double-declining balance method for depreciation. Calculate depreciation expense for Year 1 and Year 2 of the machine’s useful life. Please show your calculations (i.e., each piece and the total).
Part B . Assume that this part is unrelated to Part A. That is, forget that you even did Part A.
Again, assume that Milan Clothing Co. bought a machine for $40,000 on January 1, 2020. The machine has a useful life of 4 years, and a residual value of $3,000.
Now, assume that Milan Clothing Co. uses the straight line method for depreciation. Milan Clothing Co. sold the machine on April 1, 2021 for $30,000. Record the journal entry that Milan Clothing Co. would record for the transaction of selling the machine.
