Joy Cunningham Co. purchased a machine on January 1, 2015, for $550,000. At that time, it was estimated that the machine would have a 10-year life and no salvage value. On December 31, 2018, the firm鈥檚 accountant found that the entry for depreciation expense had been omitted in 2016. In addition, management has informed the accountant that the company plans to switch to straight-line depreciation, starting with the year 2018. At present, the company uses the sum-of-the-years鈥-digits method for depreciating equipment. Instructions Prepare the general journal entries that should be made at December 31, 2018, to record these events. (Ignore tax effects.)

Analysis of Various Accounting Changes and Errors) Various types of accounting changes can affect the financial statements of a business enterprise differently. Assume that the following list describes changes that have a material effect on the financial statements for the current year of your business enterprise.

1. A change from the completed-contract method to the percentage-of-completion method of accounting for long-term construction-type contracts.

2. A change in the estimated useful life of previously recorded fixed assets as a result of newly acquired information.

3. A change from deferring and amortizing preproduction costs to recording such costs as an expense when incurred because future benefits of the costs have become doubtful. The new accounting method was adopted in recognition of the change in estimated future benefits.

4. A change from including the employer share of FICA taxes with payroll tax expenses to including it with 鈥淩etirement benefits鈥 on the income statement.

5. Correction of a mathematical error in inventory pricing made in a prior period.

6. A change from presentation of statements of individual companies to presentation of consolidated statements.

7. A change in the method of accounting for leases for tax purposes to conform with the financial accounting method. As a result, both deferred and current taxes payable changed substantially.

8. A change from the FIFO method of inventory pricing to the LIFO method of inventory pricing.
