• Inventory Balance $2000 (purchased) - $1200 (sales) - $300 (returns) = $500
c) Absence of a purchases account is due to purchases, purchase returns and allowances, sales and sales returns are recognized in the inventory account balance. Perpetual inventory systems show all changes in inventory in the “inventory” account. Purchase accounts are not used in the perpetual inventory system. This is to keep the inventory balance current at all times.

7. Depreciation computations: change in estimate. Aussie Imports purchased a specialized piece of machinery for $50,000 on January 1, 20X3. At the time of acquisition, the machine was estimated to have a service life of 5 years (25,000 operating hours) and a residual value of $5,000. During the 5 years of operations (20X3 - 20X7), the machine was used for 5,100, 4,800, 3,200, 6,000, and 5,900 hours, respectively.
Instructions
a. Compute depreciation for 20X3 - 20X7 by using the following methods: straight line, units of output, and double-declining-balance.
Summary = Annual depreciation = $9000
