Question

The following transactions occurred during 2020. Assume that depreciation of 10% per year is charged on all machinery and 5% per year on buildings, on a straight-line basis, with no estimated salvage value. Depreciation is charged for a full year on all fixed assets acquired during the year, and no depreciation is charged on fixed assets disposed of during the year.

Mar. 10		Machinery that was purchased in 2013 for $17,920 is sold for $3,248 cash, f.o.b. purchaser’s plant. Freight of $336 is paid on the sale of this machinery.
Mar. 20		A gear breaks on a machine that cost $10,080 in 2012. The gear is replaced at a cost of $2,240. The replacement does not extend the useful life of the machine but does make the machine more efficient.
