Explanation / Answer

1)

Annual depreciation = (27000 – 3000) / 4 = $6000

Depreciation for year 1 (for 9 months) = $6000 x (9/12) = $4500

Depreciation for each of year 2 and 3 = $6000

Accumulated depreciation at the end of year 3 = 4500 + 6000 + 6000 = $16500

2)

Annual depreciation = (31000 – 3800) / 4 = $6800

Depreciation expense that should be recognized for year 2 = $6800

3)

Total appraised value of the assets = 61000 + 45800+ 18200 = $125000

Land should be recorded in the accounting records with an allocated cost of:

= $100000 x (45800/125000) = $36640

4)

Double declining rate of depreciation = (1/5) * 2 = 40%

Depreciation for the first year = 5500 x 40% = $2200

Depreciation for the second year = (5500-2200) * 40% = $1320

5)

Rate of depreciation = $(231450 – 12500) / 755000 bottles = $0.29/bottle

Depreciation for the second year = 111500 bottles x $0.29/bottle = $32335

6)

0.8% x $6500 + 5.4% x $6500 = $403

7)

FICA and Medicare tax is a contributory one. Means the employer has to pay the same amount of tax as is deducted from the employee’s pay.

Employer’s total FICA liability for this employee = 6.2% * $5100 + 1.45% * $5100 = $390.15

8)

Sale tax = 6% * $4500 = $270

Answer:

Debit Cash $4,770; credit Sales $4,500; credit Sales Taxes Payable $270

9) Answer: $46000

market value of building – mortgage amount = $91000 - $45000 = $46000
