Michele is considering Foot Fault’s Fixed Assets, specifically its Property Plant and Equipment (PP&E) tracking. In Foot Fault’s PP&E Continuity Schedule includes the company’s Fixed Asset and Accumulated Depreciation. Note that, from the depreciation calculated in the below document, a certain amount is allocated to inventory because of the use of the Fixed Assets in the production of goods (tennis shirts, etc.). Michele has learned that David Eccleston, the former coordinator for PPE tracking, had left the company. Eccleston had based the creation and maintenance of the PP&E Continuity Schedule on these facts: Foot Fault uses Straight Line Depreciation for all PP&E Assets. Foot Fault's Land was purchased November 1, 201 for $6,000,000. Eccleston had a casual conversation with some of Foot Fault's loading dock employees who said this piece of land is in a good location; it will be good for something like 100 years". Eccleston decided to use this statement in his calculations of the PP&E Continuity Schedule. All equipment currently used by Foot Fault was originally purchased on November 1, 2018. Acquisition costs were $2,900,000 and all other costs combined used to bring the equipment to its intended use were $100,000. The equipment has an estimated useful life of 10 years and no salvage value. On November 1, 2019, Foot Fault moved into a new building which included all production, distribution and administrative functions (ie. all functions). Foot Fault paid $4,000,000 for the building's construction and to bring it to its intended use. The building has an estimated useful life of 40 years and no salvage value. Foot Fault recently purchased a truck, an asset they had never before owned. This eliminated most of the expense of paying shipping companies to move finished good to customers. The truck was purchased on May 1, 2020. Foot Fault paid $205,000 for the truck and to bring it to its intended use. The truck has an estimated useful life of 5 years and a $5,000 salvage value. Michele asked to see the PP&E Continuity Schedule as part of her substantive testing and the below was provided

Notes: Land: Entered intended use November 1, 2010; Depreciated over 100 years Annual Straight Line Depreciation: $6,000,000 / 100 years = $60,000 Equipment: Entered intended use November 1, 2018; Depreciated over 10 years and no salvage value Annual Straight Line Depreciation: $2,900,000 / 10 years = $290,000 Building: Entered intended use November 1, 2019; Depreciated over 40 years and no salvage value Annual Straight Line Depreciation: $4,000,000 / 40 years = $100,000 Truck: Entered intended use May 1, 2020; Depreciated over 5 years and $5,000 salvage value Annual Straight Line Depreciation: ($205,000 - $5,000) / 5 years = $40,000 

Required: From the above PP&E Continuity Schedule, identify four errors. Note: there is no requirement for journal entries; however, responses must identify the errors, explain why each is an error and state the correct amounts.
