The accumulated depreciation at 31 December 2019 is $144000
Explanation:
When recording the purchase of a fixed asset, the asset should be recognized at cost at which the asset is purchased plus all the necessary costs that are incurred to bring the asset to the location and in the condition necessary to use as required and intended by the management.
The equipment purchased by Mather should be recorded as,
Cost of equipment = 336000 + 6000 + 30000 = $372000
The freight and installation are non recurring and necessary expenses to bring the asset to the location and in the condition for use as intended by management. So, these expenses are capitalized.
The straight line depreciation charges a constant depreciation expense every year through out the useful life of the asset.
Straight line depreciation = (Cost - Salvage Value) / estimated useful life
Straight line depreciation per year = (372000 - 12000) / 5
Straight line depreciation per year = $72000
So, the accumulated depreciation at 31 December 2019 is,
Accumulated depreciation = 72000 + 72000 = $144000
