Answer #1
Date Account Title and Explanation Debit Credit
12/31/19 Depreciation Expense 196875
Accumulated depreciation 196875

Accumulated Depreciation for this machine at 12/31/19 = Accumulated depreciation till 01/01/19  +  Depreciation expense for 2019

= 618750+196875

= $ 815,625

Calculations:

Before revision of estimated life of machine

Cost machine 1980000
Salvage Value 0
Depreciable base 1980000
Useful life (Original) 8
Annual depreciation under straight line method (1980000/8) 247500
Accumulated depreciation till 01/01/2019 (2.5 years x 247500) 618750
Book value on 01/01/2019 (1980000-618750) 1361250

After revision of estimated life of machine

Net book value 1361250
Salvage value (new) -180000
