Explanation:

Recording the entire cost as expense would have understated retained earnings by $2,650,000

Annual depreciation on machine = ( Purchase cost - Residual value ) / Useful life

= ($2,650,000 - $165,000) / 9

= $2,485,000 / 9

= $276,111.11

Depreciation would have been recorded for $552,222 for 2 years had the machinery been corrected recorded I.e $276,111 × 2 = $552,222

Therefore , the cumulative effect of this error on the income statement of Sheridan for the year ended, 31 December 2021 would have shown

= $2,650,000 - $552,222

= $2,097,779
