AT Travel Limited acquired a two-story building for use as an office on June 30, 2022, at $2 million. The building is expected to have a useful life of 20 years and a residual value of $100,000. The company used the straight-line method to depreciate the building. On July 1, 2023, the company paid $38,000 for the completion of the newly built car park lots at the back of the building. The market value of the building was estimated at $2.2 million and $2.5 million on June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively. Required: 1. Determine the carrying amount of the building as at June 30, 2023 and 2024, if the company used the cost method to account for the building. 2. Determine the carrying amount of the building as at June 30, 2023 and 2024, if the company used the revaluation method to account for the building where the balance of the accumulated depreciation on date of revaluation is adjusted using: (a) the write-off method, and (b) the proportionate restatement method.

On January 1, 2014, Klinefelter Company purchased a building for 520,000. The building had an estimated life of 20 years and an estimated residual value of 20,000. The company has been depreciating the building using straight-line depreciation. At the beginning of 2020, the following independent situations occur: a. The company estimates that the building has a remaining life of 10 years (for a total of 16 years). b. The company changes to the sum-of-the-years-digits method. c. The company discovers that it had ignored the estimated residual value in the computation of the annual depreciation each year. Required: For each of the independent situations, prepare all journal entries related to the building for 2020. Ignore income taxes.
Chapman Inc. purchased a piece of equipment in 2018. Chapman depreciated the equipment on a straight-line basis over a useful life of 10 years and used a residual value of $12,000. Chapmans depreciation expense for 2019 was $11,000. What was the original cost of the building? a. $98,000 b. $110,000 c. $122,000 d. $134,000
On May 10, 2019, Horan Company purchased equipment for 25,000. The equipment has an estimated service life of 5 years and zero residual value. Assume that the straight-line depreciation method is used. Required: Compute the depreciation expense for 2019 for each of the following four alternatives: 1. Horan computes depreciation expense to the nearest day. (Use 12 months of 30 days each and round the daily depreciation rate to 2 decimal places.) 2. Horan computes depreciation expense to the nearest month. Assets purchased in the first half of the month are considered owned for the whole month. 3. Horan computes depreciation expense to the nearest whole year. Assets purchased in the first half of the year are considered owned for the whole year. 4. Horan records one-half years depreciation expense on all assets purchased during the year.
Montello Inc. purchases a delivery truck for $25,000. The truck has a salvage value of $6,000 and is expected to be driven for 125,000 miles. Montello uses the units-of-production depreciation method, and in year one it expects to use the truck for 26,000 miles. Calculate the annual depreciation expense.
Kam Company purchased a machine on January 2, 2019, for 20,000. The machine had an expected life of 8 years and a residual value of 300. The double-declining-balance method of depreciation is used. Required: 1. Compute the depreciation expense for each year of the assets life and book value at the end of each year. 2. Assuming that the company has a policy of always changing to the straight-line method at the midpoint of the assets life, compute the depreciation expense for each year of the assets life. 3. Assuming that the company always changes to the straight-line method at the beginning of the year when the annual straight-line amount exceeds the double-declining-balance amount, compute the depreciation expense for each year of the assets life.
The following intangible assets were purchased by Goldstein Corporation: A. A patent with a remaining legal life of twelve years is bought, and Goldstein expects to be able to use it for seven years. B. A copyright with a remaining life of thirty years is purchased, and Goldstein expects to be able to use it for ten years. For each of these situations, determine the useful life over which Goldstein will amortize the intangible assets.
Akron Incorporated purchased an asset at the beginning of Year 1 for 375,000. The estimated residual value is 15,000. Akron estimates that the asset has a service life of 5 years. Calculate the depreciation expense using the sum-of-the-years-digits method for Years 1 and 2 of the assets life.
Colquhoun International purchases a warehouse for $300,000. The best estimate of the salvage value at the time of purchase was $15,000, and it is expected to be used for twenty-five years. Colquhoun uses the straight-line depreciation method for all warehouse buildings. After four years of recording depreciation, Colquhoun determines that the warehouse will be useful for only another fifteen years. Calculate annual depreciation expense for the first four years. Determine the depreciation expense for the final fifteen years of the assets life, and create the journal entry for year five.
