A company purchases new equipment for $90,000 cash on August 1, 2021. At the time of purchase, the equipment is expected to be used in operations for four years (48 months) and have no resale or scrap value at the end of the four years. The company depreciates the equipment evenly over the 48 months ($1,875/month). Record the adjusting entry for depreciation on December 31, 2021.

The accounting entry to record the depreciation expense on December 31, 2021 is:

Depreciation Expense - Equipment            Debit               $ 9,375

Allowance for depreciation Equipment                  Credit                     $ 9,375

Explanation:

The data in the question shows that the equipment is depreciated over the estimated useful life of the asset on an even  basis, this implies that the method of depreciation is straight line method.

The equipment was purchased on August 01 2021 and the adjusting entry is required on December 31, so the depreciation needs to be recorded for 5 months.

The amount shall be computed by multiplying the monthly depreciation amount with the period

$ 1,875 * 5 months = $ 9,375.

The accounting entry is debited to the depreciation expense account and credited to the allowance for depreciation.

The equipment is shown on the balance sheet date at cost less allowance for depreciation.
