The fact that generally accepted accounting principles allow companies flexibility in choosing between certain allocation methods can make it difficult for a financial analyst to compare periodic performance from firm to firm. Suppose you were a financial analyst trying to compare the performance of two companies. Company A uses the double-declining- balance depreciation method. Company B uses the straight-line method. You have the following Information taken from the 12/31/2021 year-end financial statements for Company B: Income Statement Depreciation expense $ 5,500 Balance Sheet Assets: Plant and equipment, at cost Less: Accumulated depreciation Net $ 55, eee (22, eee) $ 33, eee You also determine that all of the assets constituting the plant and equipment of Company B were acquired at the same time, and that all of the $55,000 represents depreciable assets. Also, all of the depreciable assets have the same useful life and residual values are zero. Required: 1. In order to compare performance with Company A, estimate what B's depreciation expense would have been for 2021 If the double- declining-balance depreciation method had been used by Company B since acquisition of the depreciable assets. 2. If Company B decided to switch depreciation methods in 2021 from the stralght line to the double-declining balance method, prepare the 2021 Journal entry to record depreciation for the year, assuming no journal entry for depreciation in 2021 has yet been recorded.
