aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

$2,000

Explanation:

The computation of the amount pay to the tax authorities during the year is shown below;

Let us assume the accrued payment be $6,000

Let us assume the amount pay to the tax authorities be X

Beginning Taxes payable account balance + Accrued payment - X = Ending taxes payable account balance

$3,000 + $6,000 - X = $7,000

$9,000 - X = $7,000

So, the X is

= $9,000 - $7,000

= $2,000

hence, the amount pay to the tax authorities is $2,000

Debit Depreciation Expense $18,600

Credit Accumulated Depreciation $18,600

To record depreciation expense for the year.

Explanation:

a) Depreciation charge for each of the 3 years, calculated as ($190,000 - $22,000)/10 = $16,800

2019: $16,800

2020: $16,800

2021: $16,800

Accumulated Depreciation to date = $50,400 ($16,800*3)

b) Book Value on January 1, 2022 = $139,600 ($190,000 - $50,400)

c) New Depreciation charge from 2022 = $18,600 ($139,600 - $28,000) /6 years, the remaining useful life based on the revised estimate.

d) There is adjusting journal entry. Depreciation is an estimate based on judgement and past events. Judgement can change to address current events. So, there is no need adjusting the entries for the previous three years.
