Question

Bensen Company began operations when it acquired $60,000 cash from the issue of common stock on January 1, 2018. The cash acquired was immediately used to purchase equipment for $50,000 that had a $10,000 salvage value and an expected useful life of four years.
The equipment was used to produce the following revenue stream (assume all revenue transactions are for cash). At the beginning of the fifth year, the equipment was sold for $8,800 cash. Bensen uses straight-line depreciation.

2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 Revenue $ 26,100 $ 28,500 $ 32,000 $ 31,300 $

Present the statements in the form of a vertical statements model.

Answer 1

Answer:

Jan 1               Equipment                    $50,000 (dr)

                                              Cash                $50,000 (cr)

Depreciation for the first year 2018 = Cost Of Asset - Residual Value/Estimated Useful Life = $ 50,000- 10,000/4= $ 10,000

Depreciation for the second year 2019 = Cost Of Asset - Residual Value/Estimated Useful Life = $ 50,000- 10,000/4= $ 10,000

Depreciation for the third year 2020 = Cost Of Asset - Residual Value/Estimated Useful Life = $ 50,000- 10,000/4= $ 10,000

Depreciation for the fourth year 2021 = Cost Of Asset - Residual Value/Estimated Useful Life = $ 50,000- 10,000/4= $ 10,000
