JOURNAL ENTRY FOR FIXED ASSET RETURNED TO DEALERSHIP WITH A LOAN LIA... Geo10 Updated May 07, 2024

@Geo10 

 

Without knowing how much depreciation was taken on the vehicle up until the date of sale, the entry cannot be made.  Do you know how much depreciation was taken up to the date of sale?  You will need to fill in the blanks, but the journal entry will look like this:

 

 DebitCredit
Loan Payable (to close)20,582.39 
Accumulated Depreciation (up to date of sale)XXX 
     Fixed Asset (to close) 30,801.24
     Cash 6,807.62
     Gain/Loss on sale - to balance entry (debit if loss, credit if gain)XXXXXX
