Required:
1. Analyze the accounting equation effects and record journal entries for each of the transactions.
2. For the tangible and intangible assets acquired in the preceding transactions, determine the amount of depreciation and amortization that Palmer Cook Productions should report for the quarter ended March 31. For convenience, the equipment and vehicle are depreciated the same way, using the straight- line method with a useful life of five years and no residual value. The building is depreciated using the double- declining- balance method, with a 10- year useful life and residual value of $ 20,000.
3. Prepare a journal entry to record the depreciation calculated in requirement 2.
