Cost and Depreciation

On January 1, 2019, Quick Stop, a convenience store, purchased a new soft-drink cooler. Quick Stop paid $23,000 cash for the cooler. Quick Stop also paid $730 to have the cooler shipped to its location. After the new cooler arrived, Quick Stop paid $2,410 to have the old cooler dismantled and removed. Quick Stop also paid $820 to a contractor to have new wiring and drains installed for the new cooler. Quick Stop estimated that the cooler would have a useful life of 6 years and a residual value of $200. Quick Stop uses the straight-line method of depreciation.

1.  Prepare any necessary journal entries to record the cost of the cooler.
