P11.17Consider the following independent situations.

• Situation 1:Ducharme Corporation purchased electrical equipment at a cost of $12,400 on June 2, 2017. From 2017 through 2020, the equipment was depreciated on a straight-line basis, under the assumption that it would have a 10-year useful life and a $2,400 residual value. After more experience and before recording 2021's depreciation, Ducharme revised its estimate of the machine's useful life downward from a total of 10 years to 8 years, and revised the estimated residual value to $2,000.
• On April 29, 2022, after recording part of a year's depreciation for 2022, the company traded in the equipment on a newer model, and received a $4,000 trade-in allowance, even though the equipment's fair value was only $2,800. The new asset had a list price of $15,300 and the supplier accepted $11,300 cash for the balance. The new equipment was depreciated on a straight-line basis, assuming a seven-year useful life and a $1,300 residual value.
• Situation 2:Malcolm Limited acquired a truck to deliver and install its specialized products at the customer's site. The vehicle's list price was $45,000, but customization added another $10,000 in costs. Malcolm took delivery of the truck on September 30, 2020, with a down payment of $5,000, signing a four-year, 8% note for the remainder, payable in equal payments of $14,496 beginning September 30, 2021.
• Malcolm expected the truck to be usable for 500 deliveries and installations. After that, the product's technology would have changed and made the vehicle obsolete. In late July 2023, the truck was destroyed when a concrete garage collapsed. Malcolm used the truck for 45 deliveries in 2020, 125 in 2021, 134 in 2022, and 79 in 2023. The company received a cheque for $12,000 from the insurance company and paid what remained on the note.
• Situation 3:A group of new machines was purchased on February 17, 2021, under a royalty agreement with the following terms: The purchaser, Keller Corp., is to pay a royalty of $1 to the machinery supplier for each unit of product that is produced by the machines each year. The machines are expected to produce 200,000 units over their useful lives. The machines' invoice price was $75,000, freight costs were $2,000, unloading charges were $1,500, and royalty payments for 2021 were $13,000. Keller uses the units of production method to depreciate its machinery.
• Situation 4:On March 31, 2017, Wayside Corporation purchased a new piece of manufacturing equipment for $323,000. At that time, the estimated useful life of the equipment was five years, with a residual value of $65,000. On August 1, 2020, due to increased competition causing a decreased selling price for its product, Wayside decided to discontinue the product. By December 31, 2020, there was a formal plan in place to sell the equipment, and the equipment qualified for classification as held for sale. At December 31, 2020, the equipment's fair value less costs to sell was $52,000. Due to matters beyond Wayside's control, a potential sale of the equipment fell through in 2021, although consumer confidence in Wayside's product increased significantly because of reported defects in itscompetitors' products. The equipment remained classified as held for sale at December 31, 2021, when the equipment's fair value less costs to sell increased to $145,000. Wayside uses the straight-line method to depreciate its equipment.

a. For Situation 1:

1. Journal Entry on June 02, 2017.
2. Adjusting Entry on December 31, 2017.
3. Adjusting Entry on December 31, 2018.
4. Adjusting Entry on December 31, 2021.
5. Journal Entry on April 29, 2022.
6. Adjusting Entry on December 31, 2021.

When calculating Partial Depreciation, Use nearest month.

Situation #2, #3, #4

b.For situation 2, record all entries that are needed to record the events and activities related to the truck, the note, and its interest, including the depreciation expense on the truck each year. Assume that Malcolm uses an activity approach to depreciate the truck, and bases it on deliveries. Round all amounts to the nearest dollar.

c.For situation 3, prepare journal entries to record the purchase of the new machines, the related depreciation for 2021, and the royalty payment. Round the per-unit charge to the nearest cent.

d.For situation 4, record all journal entries required for the years ending December 31, 2020, and December 31, 2021.
