Explanation:
Depreciation is the systematic allocation of the cost of an asset to the income statement over the estimated useful life of that asset.
It is determined as the depreciable value of the asset over the estimated useful life of the asset where the depreciable value is the difference between the cost and salvage value of the asset
.
Given that Williams Company purchased a machine costing $28,300 and is depreciating it over a 10-year estimated useful life with a residual value of $3,300,
Annual depreciation
= ($28,300 - $3,300)/10
= $2,500
At the beginning of the eighth year, a major overhaul on it was completed at a cost of $8,300,
Net book value at the beginning of the eighth year (before overhauling)
= $28,300 - 7($2,500)
= $10,800
Capitalizing the overhaul cost,
Net book value at the beginning of the eighth year (after overhauling)
= $10,800 + $8,300
= $19,100
Given that the total estimated useful life was changed to 12 years with the residual value unchanged,
Depreciation for the eighth year
= ($19,100 - $3,300)/5
= $15,800/5
= $3,160
Answer:
C should report $349,900 as the adjusted beginning retained earnings in its 2018 statement of retained earnings.
Explanation:
We are given the retained earnings for 2017 as $320,000, and in September of 2018 C realized that the insurance premium of $69,000 which had been paid on 1 January , 2017 was for 3 years , which means 2/3 of $69,000 was not for the year 2017 and it is now prepaid .
Amount prepaid = 2/3 x $69,000
= $46,000
But it is given that the income tax rate is 35% , so of $46,000 C will adjust or add only 65% of 46,000 in he earnings because 35% would be deducted,
= $46,000 - $46,000 x 35%
= $46,000 - $16,100
= $29,900
So we will add this amount with the $320,000,
therefore adjusted beginning retained earnings would be $349,900.
