$12,000 and $12,000. At the end of Year 5, the end of the office equipment's 5-year useful life, the book value will be equal to the $12,000 salvage value, regardless of which depreciation method is used.
On January 1, Year 1, Phillips Company made a basket purchase including land, a building and equipment for $380,000. The appraised values of the assets are $20,000 for the land, $340,000 for the building and $40,000 for equipment. Phillips uses the double-declining-balance method of depreciation for the equipment which is estimated to have a useful life of four years and a salvage value of $5,000. The depreciation expense for Year 1 for the equipment is: $17,000. $20,000. $9,500. $19,000.
$19,000. $40,000 ÷ ($20,000 + $340,000 + $40,000) = 10% of total appraised value; $380,000 purchase price × 10% = $38,000 cost of equipment; $38,000 × (2 × 25% straight-line rate) = $19,000 depreciation expense in Year 1.
At the end of the accounting period, Houston Company had $7,400 of par value common stock issued, additional paid-in capital in excess of par value − common of $9,400, retained earnings of $8,000, and $5,250 of treasury stock.

$3,000 Under FIFO, the cost of the items purchased first is reported on the income statement, and the cost of the items purchased last is reported on the balance sheet. Cost of goods sold = (100 × $4.00) + (300 × $4.40) + (500 × $4.60) = $4,020; Gross margin = $7,020 sales − $4,020 cost of goods sold = $3,000.
On March 1, Bartholomew Company purchased a new stamping machine with a list price of $34,000. The company paid cash for the machine; therefore, it was allowed a 5% discount. Other costs associated with the machine were: transportation costs, $550; sales tax paid, $1,360; installation costs, $450; routine maintenance during the first month of operation, $500. The cost recorded for the machine was: $34,210. $32,300. $35,160. $34,660.
$34,660 The cost includes the purchase price (less discounts) plus any costs necessary to get the asset in the location and condition for its intended use. Maintenance costs are the costs of routine maintenance and minor repairs that are incurred to keep an asset in good working order. These costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Cost of machine = $34,000 − ($34,000 × 5%) + $550 transportation + $1,360 sales tax + $450 installation = $34,660.

Blake Company purchased two identical inventory items. The item purchased first cost $16.00, and the item purchased second cost $18.00. Blake sold one of the items for $24.00. Which of the following statements is true? A. Ending inventory will be lower if Blake uses the weighted average cost flow method than if the FIFO cost flow method was used. B. Cost of goods sold will be higher if Blake uses the FIFO cost flow method than if weighted average cost flow method was used. C. The dollar amount assigned to ending inventory will be the same no matter which cost flow method is used. D. Gross margin will be higher if Blake uses LIFO than it would be if FIFO were used.
Ending inventory will be lower if Blake uses the weighted average cost flow method than if the FIFO cost flow method was used. If Blake uses weighted average, ending inventory will be $17.00. The weighted average method calculates an average cost of inventory ($16 + $18 = $34; $34/2 units = $17 average cost per unit). If the company uses FIFO, ending inventory will be $18.00. The FIFO method assumes that inventory purchased first is sold first. Therefore, the item purchased first costing $16 will be sold first and the item costing $18 will remain in ending inventory.
