Question

Eastsouth technology Ltd faced the following situations.

· When the business collected $10,000 in advance three months ago, the accountant debited Cash and credited Unearned Revenue. The client was paying for two test machines, one delivered in December, the other to be delivered in May 2020.

· Salary expense is $310 per day to you (please add your name as memo to the entry when you do it. Deduct 5 marks without name)– Monday through Friday – and the business pays employees each Friday. For example, purposes, assume that this year, December 31 falls on a Tuesday.

· The unadjusted balance of the Supplies account is $900. The total cost of supplies on hand is $800.

· Equipment was purchased at the beginning of this year at a cost of $18,000. The equipment’s useful life is six years and no residual value. Record the depreciation for this year using straight line method.

Journalize the adjusting entry needed at 2019 year-end (December 31, 2019) for each situation. Each scenario should be considered independently. Please explain your adjusting entries. Entries without explanation reduce 30% marks. Good luck.
