VanDyke Company's net incomes for the past three years are presented below: During the 2016 year-end audit, the following items come to your attention: VanDyke bought equipment on January 1, 2013 for $242,000 with a $42,000 estimated salvage value and a six-year life. The company debited an expense account and credited cash on the purchase date for the entire cost of the asset. (Straight-line method) During 2016, VanDyke changed from the straight-line method of depreciating its cement plant to the double-declining balance method. The following computations present depreciation on both bases: The net income for 2016 was computed using the double-declining balance method. The depreciation recorded in 2016 was $46, 080. VanDyke, in reviewing its provision for allowance for doubtful accounts during 2016, has determined that 1% is the appropriate amount of bad debt expense to be charged to operations. The company had used 1/2 of 1% as its rate in 2015 and 2014 when the expense had been $18,000 and $12,000, respectively. The company recorded bad debt expense under the new rate for 2016. The company would have recorded $6,000 less of bad debt expense on December 31, 2016 under the old rate.
