Step-by-step explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Cost of nine assembly robots = $594,000
Unit cost of a robot = $66,000 ($594,000/9)
Expected useful life = 10 years
Expected residual value = $54,000
Unit residual value = $6,000 ($54,000/9)
Depreciable amount for each robot = $60,000 ($66,000 - $6,000)
Straight-line annual depreciation expense = $6,000 ($60,000/10)
Sale of one robot for $40,000 cash:
Accumulated depreciation for one robot on December 31, 20x3 = $18,000
Net book value = $48,000 ($66,000 - $18,000)
Cash $40,000 Sale of Equipment $40,000
Accumulated Depreciation $18,000 Sale of Equipment $18,000
Sale of Equipment $66,000 Equipment $66,000
Loss from Sale of Equipment $8,000 Sale of Equipment $8,000
Sale of one robot for $62,000
Accumulated depreciation for one robot on December 31, 20x3 = $18,000
Net book value = $48,000 ($66,000 - $18,000)
Cash $62,000 Sale of Equipment $62,000
Accumulated Depreciation $18,000 Sale of Equipment $18,000
Sale of Equipment $66,000 Equipment $66,000
Sale of Equipment $14,000 Gain from sale of Equipment $14,000
