In 2016, Internal auditors discovered that Fay Inc., had debited an expense account for its $980,000 cost of a machine purchased on January 1, 2013. The machines's useful life was expected to be 7 years with no residual value. Straight-line deprectiation is used by Fay. The journal entry to correct the error will include a credit to accumulated depreciation of:.
A) $420,000
B) $280,000
C) $140,000
D) $980,000

The correct answer is C

Explanation:

The amount of depreciation expense is computed using the SLM (stands for Straight Line Method) as:

Depreciation expense = Cost of machine - Residual value / Number of life years

where

Cost of machine is $980,000

Residual value is $0

Number of life years is 7 years

Putting the value above:

Depreciation expense = $980,000 - $0 / 7

= $980,000 / 7

= $140,000

The entry which is to be recorded as:

Depreciation Expense A/cDr    $140,000

     Accumulated Depreciation A/cCr    $140,000

it establishes that the president can send armed forces into action abroad only by declaration of war by congress, statutory authorization, or in case of a national emergency created by attack upon the united states, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces.

it requires the president to notify congress within 48 hours of sending armed forces to military action.
