i. Calculate the depreciation per annum on the lorry.
Depreciation per annum = (purchase value - salvage value)/number of years = (70,000 - 5,000)/5 = RM13,000
ii. Calculate the net book value of the lorry as at 31st December 2012. (6 marks)
net book value = purchase value - depreciation per annum*number of years = 70,000 - 13,000*4 = RM18,000
iii. Record the journal entry for the purchase of the truck. (6 marks)
If you purchase a $85,000 the truck with cash, the journal entry that you use to record this purchase debits delivery truck for $85,000 and credits cash for $85,000.
