Accounting Changes-Depreciation
Described below are two independent and unrelated situations
involving accounting
changes. Each change occurs during 2016 before any adjusting
entries or closing entries
were prepared.
a. On December 30, 2012, Rival Industries acquired its office
building at a cost of
$1,000,000. It was depreciated on a straight-line basis assuming a
useful life of 40
years and no salvage value. However, plans were finalized in 2016
to relocate the
company headquarters at the end of 2020. The vacated office
building will have a
salvage value at that time of $700,000.
b. At the beginning of 2013, the Hoffman Group purchased office
equipment at a cost of
$330,000. Its useful life was estimated to be 10 years with no
salvage value. The
equipment was depreciated by the sum-of-the years’-digits method.
On January 1,
2016, the company changed to the straight-line method.
Instructions:
a. Briefly describe the way company should report this accounting
change in the
financial statements.
b. Prepare any 2016 journal entry related to the change.

A date written in MMDDYYYY format is palindromic if it is read identically from left to right and from right to left. For example, the date February 2, 2020 (02022020).
Develop a Java program (called Palindrome Dates.java) that identifies all palindromic dates in a given year. The program must have the following functionality:
When running the program, the user is prompted to enter a year A.
Afterwards, the program calculates all the palindromic dates and prints them on the screen (separated by a space) in MMDDYYYY format.
Finally, the program prints on the screen the total number of palindromic dates in that year.
Tip: use the LocalDate and DateTimeFormatter classes included in Java to handle dates. For this, it requires doing two imports:
import java.time.LocalDate;
import java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter;
To iterate between dates you can use the following example which increments the start date by one day until it arrives just before the end date.
for (LocalDate date = start; date.isBefore (end); date = date.plusDays (1)) {
// Processing of the date contained in the date object

Enter your answer in the provided box. Alpha particles produced by radioactive decay eventually pick up electrons from their surroundings to form helium atoms. Calculate the volume (in mL) of He collected at STP when 2.30 g of pure 226Ra is stored in a closed container for 136 years. (Assume that there are five alpha particles generated per 226Ra as it decays to 206Pb.)
