Question

In 2 0 2 5 , Bridgeport Corporation discovered that equipment purchased on January 1 , 2 0 2 3 , for $ 5 1

In 2025, Bridgeport Corporation discovered that equipment purchased on January 1,2023, for $51,000 was expensed at that time.
The equipment should have been depreciated over 5 years, with no salvage value. The effective tax rate is 30%.
Prepare Bridgeport's 2025 journal entry to correct the error. Bridgeport uses straight-line depreciation. (Credit account titles are
automatically indented when the amount is entered. Do not indent manually. If no entry is required, select "No Entry" for the
account titles and enter 0 for the amounts. List all debit entries before credit entries.)
