Kingbird Company uses special strapping equipment in its packaging business. The equipment was purchased in January 2016 for $12,400,000 and had an estimated useful life of 8 years with no salvage value. At December 31, 2017, new technology was introduced that would accelerate the obsolescence of Kingbird’s equipment. Kingbird’s controller estimates that expected future net cash flows on the equipment will be $7,812,000 and that the fair value of the equipment is $6,944,000. Kingbird intends to continue using the equipment, but it is estimated that the remaining useful life is 4 years. Kingbird uses straight-line depreciation.

Prepare the journal entry (if any) to record the impairment at December 31, 2017.

Prepare the journal entry for the equipment at December 31, 2018. The fair value of the equipment at December 31, 2018, is estimated to be $7,316,000.

Prepare the journal entry (if any) to record the impairment at December 31, 2017 and for the equipment at December 31, 2018, assuming that Kingbird intends to dispose of the equipment and that it has not been disposed of as of December 31, 2018.

imagine if you will, that Ryder Corp has at the end of 2018 an amount of $62,000 in its accrued payroll (aka wages payable) account. During 2019, no changes were made to the accrued payroll account so that it is still $62,000. Whenever, payroll was accounted for in 2019, the payroll department simply debited the payroll expense and credited cash (no journal entry to accrued payroll). No one was concerned about the monthly financial statements or the payroll expense being correct each month. However, it is now the end of 2019 and it is time to make the adjusting entries to make sure that the amount of payroll liability and payroll expense is correct for the year (assume 2018 is correct). You may want to use T accounts to work through what needs to be done.

Your post should explain three things:

1. What information you will need to gather from payroll in order to make the correct adjusting entry (assume payroll is paid weekly on Wednesday for the hours worked the previous week (Mon to Sat, no Sun).

2. How you will use information found in 1 to calculate the amount of the journal entry (you can make up numbers or describe in generic terms)

3. What your adjusting entry will be?

Depending on the level of organization (cost center vs profit center vs investment center), the idea of responsibility accounting defines the techniques used to evaluate the performance of individuals and managers. If you’ve been involved in an organization using performance evaluation techniques, please discuss the system in terms of its design, implementation, and overall effectiveness. Did it provide useful information on performance as well as motivate those subject to the system. What were its strengths and weaknesses, and given all we’ve been studying about planning and control, what changes would you make to the system if you were able?
