Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

The adjusting entry for depreciation on the equipment during 2018 will be calculated as:

Depreciation = (Equipment cost - Estimated residual value) / Estimated life

= ($350000 - $20000) / 8

= $41250

Debit: Depreciation = $41250

Credit: Accumulated depreciation = $41250
