Question

The property, plant, and equipment section of the Jasper Company’s December 31, 2020, balance sheet contained the following:

Property, plant, and equipment:
Land				$	111,000
Building	$	496,000
Less: Accumulated depreciation		(155,000	)		341,000
Equipment		138,450
Less: Accumulated depreciation		?			?
Total property, plant, and equipment					?

The land and building were purchased at the beginning of 2016. Straight-line depreciation is used and a residual value of $31,000 for the building is anticipated.

The equipment is comprised of the following three machines:

Machine	Cost			Date Acquired		Residual Value				Life (in Years)
101	$	49,300		1/1/2018		$	6,100			8
102		63,800		6/30/2019			7,100			7
103		25,350		9/1/2020			2,100			10

The straight-line method is used to determine depreciation on the equipment. On March 31, 2021, Machine 102 was sold for $39,000. Early in 2021, the useful life of machine 101 was revised to five years in total, and the residual value was revised to zero.

Required:

1. Calculate the accumulated depreciation on the equipment at December 31, 2020.
2. Prepare the journal entry to record 2021 depreciation on machine 102 up to the date of sale.
3. Calculate the gain or loss on the sale of machine 102.
4. Prepare the journal entry for the sale of machine 102.
5. Prepare the 2021 year-end journal entries to record depreciation on the building and remaining equipment.

Answer 1

ANSWER

1).

Machine	Depreciable Cost (Cost - Residual Value)	Annual Depreciation (Depreciable Cost /Useful Life )	Passage of time from date of acquisition	Accumulated Depreciation
101	$ 43,200.00	$5,400.00	3 years	$ 16,200.00
102	$ 56,700.00	$8,100.00	1.5 Years	$ 12,150.00
103	$ 23,250.00	$2,325.00	4 months	$        775.00
				$ 29,125.00

Working

Machine	Depreciable Cost (Cost - Residual Value)	Annual Depreciation (Depreciable Cost /Useful Life )	Passage of time from date of acquisition	Accumulated Depreciation
101	=49300-6100	=+B2/8	3 years	=+C2*3
102	=63800-7100	=+B3/7	1.5 Years	=+C3*1.5
103	=25350-2100	=+B4/10	4 months	=+(C4*4)/12
				=SUM(E2:E4)

2).

Date	General Journal	Debit	Credit
March 31,2021	Depreciation expense [8100*3/12]	$       2,025.00
	Accumulated depreciation equipment		$        2,025.00

3).

Sale proceeds		$     39,000.00
Less:
Cost	$                63,800.00
Less : Accumulated depreciation [12,150 +2,025 ]	$              (14,175.00)	$    (49,625.00)
Loss on sale		$    (10,625.00)

4).

Date	General Journal	Debit	Credit
March 31,2021	Cash	$     39,000.00
	Accumulated depreciation equipment [12,150 +2,025 ]	$     14,175.00
	Loss on sale of equipment	$     10,625.00
	Equipment		$      63,800.00

5).

The accumulated depreciation for 5 Years (2016-2020) is $155,000 then the depreciation expense per year = (155,000/5) = $ 31,000

Date	General Journal	Debit	Credit
Dec 31,2021	Depreciation expense	$ 31,000.00
	Accumulated depreciation Building		$ 31,000.00

Machine 101
Cost	$49,300
(-) Accumulated depreciation	($16,200)
Book value as on Dec 31,2020 (a)	$33,100
Remaining useful life (5 years - 3 years) (b)	2 years
Depreciation expense (a/b)	$16,550

Depreciation expense on Equipment at year end
Depreciation expense on Machine 101	$16,550
Depreciation expense on Machine 103	$2,325
Total depreciation	$18,875

Date	General Journal	Debit	Credit
Dec 31,2021	Depreciation expense	$     18,875.00
	Accumulated depreciation equipment		$      18,875.00
