During 2019 and 2020, Faulkner Manufacturing used the sum-of-the-years-digits (SYD) method of depreciation for its depreciable assets, for both financial reporting and tax purposes. At the beginning of 2021, Faulkner decided to change to the straight-line method for both financial reporting and tax purposes. A tax rate of 25% is in effect for all years. For an asset that cost $16,000 with an estimated residual value of $1,000 and an estimated useful life of 10 years, the depreciation under different methods is as follows:

Year	Straight Line				SYD			Difference
2019		$	1,500		$	2,727			$	1,227
2020			1,500			2,455				955
		$	3,000		$	5,182			$	2,182

Required: 1. Prepare the journal entry that Faulkner will record in 2021 related to the change. 2. Suppose instead that Faulkner previously used straight-line depreciation and changed to sum-of-the-years- digits in 2021. Prepare the journal entry that Faulkner will record in 2021 related to the change.
