    The Journal entry is shown below:-

    Depreciation on basis of straight line method

    = $473,000 : 10

    = $47,300

    Depreciation Expense of 2020 = $47,300 * 1

    = $473,00

    Depreciation Dr, $47,300

    To accumulated Depreciation $47,300

    (Being depreciation is recorded)

    Accumulated Depreciation Dr $473,000

    To Equipment a/c $473,000

    (Being equipment retired)

    (being equipment retired is recorded)

    Balance Sheet Partial

    Equipment Balance = Equipment - Accumulated Depreciation

    = $48,247,000 - $8,493,000

    = $39,754,000

    Equipment = Opening Balance + Purchases - Sales - Retired Equipment

    = 47,320,000 + 2,480,000 - 1,080,000 - 473,000

    = $ 48,247,000

    Accumulated Depreciation (Equipment) = Opening Balance + Depreciation on equipment on 1 May + Depreciation on equipment on 31 Dec + Depreciation on equipment on 31 Dec - Depreciation on equipment on 1 May - Depreciation on retired equipment on 31 Dec

    = 4,650,000 + 36,000 + 47,300 + 4,700,700 - 468000 - 473,000

    = $ 8,493,000

    Total Plants Assets = Land + (Building - Accumulated Depreciation) + (Equipment - Accumulated Depreciation)

    = $5,355,000 + ($29,120,000 - $13,822,400) + $39,754,000

    = $60,406,600
