You have compared the opening balances with your prior-year audit working papers. You find the following information, labeled as 1 through 6, during your current-year audit. Review this information and suggest what substantive procedures will be adopted.

1. All equipment is depreciated on a straight-line basis (no salvage value taken into consideration) based on the following estimated lives: buildings, 25 years; all other items, 10 years. The companys policy is to take one-half years depreciation on all asset acquisitions and disposals occurring during the year.

2. On April 1 of the current year, the company entered into a ten-year lease contract for a die-casting machine with annual rentals of $5,000, payable in advance every April 1. The lease is cancelable by either party (60 days written notice is required), and there is no option to renew the lease or buy the equipment at the end of the lease. The estimated useful life of the machine is ten years with no salvage value. The company recorded the die-casting machine in the machinery and equipment account at $40,400, the present value at the date of the lease, and $2,020, applicable to the machine, has been included in depreciation expense for the year.

3. The company completed the installment of machinery in the plant on June 30 of the current year. And the routine repair and maintenance expenses of $10,000 are capitalized to the cost of machinery.

4. The amount shown in the retirements column for the machinery and equipment asset represents cash received on September 5, on disposal of a machine purchased in July 2004 for $48,000. The bookkeeper recorded a depreciation expense of $3,500 on this machine in 2018.
