Wren Ltd calculates depreciation to the nearest month using straight-line depreciation for all assets. Amounts are recorded to the nearest dollar.

The following transactions and events occurred over the next financial year:

July 26, 2023

Traded in Boat 1 for a new boat (Boat 4) which cost $84 100. A trade-in allowance of $8900 was received and the balance was paid in cash. Registration and stamp duty costs of $1500 were also paid in cash. Boat 4 was given an estimated useful life and residual value at 6 years and $4 120 respectively.

Dec. 1, 2023

Overhauled the processing plant at a cash cost of $31 200. As the modernisation significantly expanded the plants operating capacity and efficiency, the remaining useful life was estimated to be 12 years. Residual value remained as $2 000.

Feb. 26, 2024

Boat 3 reached the end of its useful life but no buyer could be found, so the boat was scrapped.

June 30,

2024

Recorded depreciation on all assets.

Required:

Prepare general journal entries to record the transactions and events for the year ended 30 June 2024.
