Question 1: Partial year’s depreciation; alternative methods; exchange/disposal of PPE

Videotron Ltee completed the following transactions involving printing equipment.

Machine 6690 was purchased for cash on May 1, 2020, at an installed cost of $72,900. Its useful life was estimated to be four years with an $8,100 trade-in value. Straight-line depreciation was recorded for the machine at the ends of 2020 and 2021.

On August 5, 2020, it was traded for Machine 6691, which had an installed cash price of $54,000. A trade-in allowance of $40,500 was received and the balance was paid in cash. The new machine’s life was estimated at five years with a $9,450 trade-in value. The fair values of Machines 6690 and 6691 were not reliably determined at the time of the exchange. Double-declining-balance depreciation was recorded on each December 31 of Machine 6691’s life. On February 1, 2025, it was sold for $13,500.

Machine 6711 was purchased on February 1, 2025, at an installed cash price of $79,650.

Blue Department Store converted from the conventional retail method to the LIFO retail method on January 1, 2020, and is now considering converting to the dollar-value LIFO inventory method. During your examination of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, management requested that you furnish a summary showing certain computations of inventory cost for the past 3 years.

Here is the available information.

Compute the cost of inventory on hand at December 31, 2019, based on the conventional retail method. (Round ratios for computational purposes to 0 decimal places, e.g. 78% and final answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 28,987)

Compute the inventory to be reported on December 31, 2019, in accordance with procedures necessary to convert from the conventional retail method to the LIFO retail method beginning January 1, 2020. Assume that the retail value of the December 31, 2019, inventory was $60,900. (Round ratios for computational purposes to 2 decimal places, e.g. 78.72% and final answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 28,987.)

Without prejudice to your solution to part (b), assume that you computed the December 31, 2019, inventory (retail value $60,900) under the LIFO retail method at a cost of $36,845. Compute the cost of the store’s 2020 and 2021 year-end inventories under the dollar-value LIFO method. (Round ratios for computational purposes to 2 decimal places, e.g. 78.72% and final answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 28,987.)

Assume that an individual wins a lottery. Assume also that the individual was working before the lottery win and had no other nonlabor income before the lottery win.

a) Using the basic static model of individual labour supply, discuss both graphically and explain in your own words how the lottery win will affect the individual’s level of hours worked. Discuss all relevant effects.

b) Is it possible that the individual decides to stop working following the lottery win? In your answer discuss the concept of reservation wages and add the individual’s reservation wage before and after the lottery win to your graph.
