A company purchased and installed Equipment on January 1 at a total cost of $117,900.

1. Prepare the general journal entry to update depreciation to January 1 of Year 6. (Hint: Consider how many years have passed and therefore depreciated.)
2. Prepare the general journal entry to record the sale of the machine for $35.000 cash.
Prepare a table for the journal entries and show your work for partial credit.
