On March 31, 2021, the Herzog Company purchased a factory complete with vehicles and equipment. The allocation of the total purchase price of $920,000 to the various types of assets along with estimated useful lives and residual values are as follows:

Asset Cost Estimated Residual Value Estimated Useful Life (in years)

Building 420,000 none 25
Equipment 206,000 10% of cost 6
Vehicles 154,000 $ 14,000 10
Total $ 920,000

On June 29, 2022, equipment included in the March 31, 2021, purchase that cost $92,000 was sold for $72,000.

Prepare the journal entries to record the depreciation on the equipment sold on June 29, 2022, and the sale of equipment. 3.
