On July 1, 2016, Farm Fresh Industries purchased a specialized delivery truck for $264,000. At the time, Farm Fresh estimated the truck to have a useful life of eight years and a residual value of $24,000. On March 1, 2021, the truck was sold for $115,000. Farm Fresh uses the straight-line depreciation method for all of its plant and equipment. Partial-year depreciation is calculated based on the number of months the asset is in service. Required: 1. Prepare the journal entry to update depreciation in 2021 2. Prepare the journal entry to record the sale of the truck. 3. Assuming that the truck was instead sold for $141,000, prepare the journal entry to record the sale.

Accumulated depreciation-Delivery truck 140000 Dr

Delivery Truck 264000 Cr

Gain on disposal 17000 Cr

Explanation:

Depreciation expense is the systematic allocation of an asset's cost over its estimated useful life.

The straight line method of depreciation charges a constant depreciation expense each period. The formula for depreciation expense per period under this method is,

Depreciation expense = (Cost - Residual value) / Estimated useful life of the asset

The depreciation expense per year of delivery truck under this method will be,

Depreciation expense per year = (264000 - 24000) / 8 = $30000 per year

The depreciation expense to be charged in 2021 will be for 2 months.

Depreciation expense 2021 = 30000 * 2/12 = $5000

The accumulated depreciation of truck on 1 March 2021 is,

Depreciation for 6 months of 2016 = 30000 * 6/12 = $15000

Depreciation for 4 years (2017 to 2020) = 30000 * 4 = $120000

Depreciation for 2 months of 2021 = $5000

Accumulated depreciation at 1 March 2021 = 15000 + 120000 + 5000

Accumulated depreciation at 1 March 2021 = $140000

Net Carrying value of asset = 264000 - 140000 = $124000

Loss on disposal as asset is sold for less than its carrying value is,

loss on disposal = 115000 - 124000 = - $9000 (loss on disposal)

As the asset is sold for more than its carrying value, the gain on disposal is,

Gain on disposal = 141000 - 124000 = $17000 (gain on disposal)
