Accounting
Passat Company owns a building that appears on its prior year-end statement of financial position at its original $561,000 cost less $420,750 accumulated depreciation. The building is depreciated on a straightline basis assuming a 20-year life and no residual value. During the first week in January of the current calendar year, major structural repairs are completed on the building at a $67,200 cost.

Determine the building's age (property, plant and equipment age) as at the prior year-end statement of financial position date. 2. Prepare the entry to record the cost of the structural repairs that are paid in cash. 3. Determine the carrying amount of the building immediately after the repairs are recorded. 4. Prepare the entry to record the current calendar year's depreciation
