Assume on January 1, 2017, a wholly owned subsidiary sells to its parent, for a sale price of $132,000, equipment that originally cost $180,000. The subsidiary originally purchased the equipment on January 1, 2013, and depreciated the equipment assuming a 12-year useful life (straight-line with no salvage value). The parent has adopted the subsidiary’s depreciation policy and depreciates the equipment over the remaining useful life of 8 years. The parent uses the equity method to account for its Equity Investment.

a. Compute the annual pre-consolidation depreciation expense for the subsidiary (pre-intercompany sale) and the parent (post-intercompany sale).

Annual depreciation expense-subsidiary$150000
Annual depreciation expense-parent

$16500

b. Compute the pre-consolidation Gain on Sale recognized by the subsidiary during 2017.

$12,000

c. Prepare the required [I] consolidation journal entry in 2017 (assume a full year of depreciation).
