On January 2, 20x4 Xander Corp. received a new piece of equipment, which was installed that day, and wrote a cheque to Caterpillar Inc. for $270,000. The invoice broke out the payment as follows: Cost of equipment $220,000 Delivery of equipment 20,000 Installation of equipment 30,000 The equipment will be used to produce Gizmos, and the company's COO estimates that a total of 2,000,000 Gizmos can be produced by this piece of equipment over the next 8 years, after which the residual value of the equipment will be $20,000. During 20x4, Xander produced 180,000 Gizmos. Required - (All parts are unrelated, i.e. complete separately ignoring other parts) a. Prepare ALL journal entries relating to the equipment for the year ended December 31, 20x4, assuming Xander uses the units-of-production method to depreciate this asset. b.
