During 2019 and 2020, Faulkner Manufacturing used the sum-of-the-years-digits (SYD) method of depreciation for its depreciable assets, for both financial reporting and tax purposes. At the beginning of 2021, Faulkner decided to change to the straight-line method for both financial reporting and tax purposes. A tax rate of 25% is in effect for all years. For an asset that cost $25,100 with an estimated residual value of $1,100 and an estimated useful life of 10 years, the depreciation under different methods is as follows:

Year	Straight Line				SYD			Difference
2019		$	2,400		$	4,364			$	1,964
2020			2,400			3,927				1,527
		$	4,800		$	8,291			$	3,491

Required: 1. Prepare the journal entry that Faulkner will record in 2021 related to the change. 2. Suppose instead that Faulkner previously used straight-line depreciation and changed to sum-of-the-years- digits in 2021. Prepare the journal entry that Faulkner will record in 2021 related to the change.
