Item4

Chem-Lite Incorporated maintains its accounts on the basis of a fiscal year ending March 31. At March 31, 20X1, the Equipment account in the general ledger appeared as shown below. The company uses straight-line depreciation, a 10-year life, and 10 percent salvage value for all its equipment. It is the company's policy to take a full year's depreciation on all additions to equipment occurring during the fiscal year, and you may treat this policy as a satisfactory one for the purpose of this problem. The company has recorded depreciation for the fiscal year ended March 31, 20X1.
