Explanation:

Payment for purchase of PPE (76,000-20,000) = $56,000

Cost ( end 2016)                                                                        246,200

Accumulated depreciation                                                        (167,300)

Carrying Amount                                                                       78,900

add Additions                                                                             76,000

Minus Depreciation                                                                    (38,200)

Disposal at C.V (44,800 - 28,500)                                            (16,300)                                      

Cost (end 2017)                                                                           277,400

Accumulated Depreciation                                                        (177,000)

Carrying Value                                                                            100,400

to fill up the missing parts of the note we use bottom up approach

for an example to get additions we say cost at the end plus disposal (cost) - opening

the $20,000 is not cash outflow or cash inflow hence payment = 56000

Proceeds from sale of equipment

gain = selling price - Carrying Value

selling price = 14600+16300 = $30,900

Cash dividend has not been paid hence the increase in dividends payable

Redemption of bond = 45600 +20000 - 48600 = $17,000
