Step by step solution

01

Meaning of Amortization

Amortization is paying off a debt through normal, pre-arranged installments that incorporate principal and interest. Principal and interest payments are made in each circumstance where the term "amortization" is pertinent.

02

Step 2:(a) Determining Payments for purchase of property, plant, and equipment.

This can be represented in T-account

Dr. Property, Plant,

and Equipment Cr.

12/31/2016	247,000
Equipment from the exchange of B/P	25,000	45,000	Equipment sold
Payment for purchase of PP & E	50,000
12/31/2017	277,000

Payments is $50,000 ($277,000 – ($247,000+ $25,000 -$45,000))

03

(b) Determining proceeds from the sale of equipment

This can be represented in T-account

Dr Accumulated Depreciation Cr.

			167,000	12/31/2016
			38,0000	Depreciation Expense
	Equipment sold	27,000
			178,000	12/31/2017

Accumulated depreciation on equipment sold is $27,000 ($167,000 + $38,000 - $178,000)

Journal entry to reflect the sale of equipment is as follows:

Date	Particulars	Debit ($)	Credit ($)
	Cash	32,500
	Accumulated depreciation	27,000
	Property, Plant, and Equipment		45,000
	Gain on sale of Equipment		14,500

The $32,500 in equipment sales revenue is regarded as an investment activity. The acquisition and disposition of long-term productive assets are included in investing activities.

04

(c) Determining Cash dividends paid.

Dr. Retained Earnings Cr.

		91,000	12/31/2016
		31,000
Dividend declared	18,000
		104,000	12/31/2017

Dividend declared is $18,000 ($91,000 + $31,000 - $104,000)

Make T-account for Dividends payable account

Dr. Dividenda payable Cr.

		5,000	12/31/16
		18,000	Dividend declared
Cash dividend paid	15,000
		8,000	12/31/17

Cash dividend paid is $15,000 ($5,000 + $18,000 -$8,000)

05

(d) Determining redemption of bonds payable

This can be represented in T-account

Dr. Bonds payable Cr.

		46,000	12/31/2016
		25,000	Issuance of B/P for PP & E
Redemption of B/P	22,000
		49,000	12/31/2017

The issue is that there was no amortization of the bond premium or discount; as a result, the only change that wasn't taken into account was the payment of the outstanding bonds.
