Would it be considered unusual to find debits to fixed assets coming from a journal entry source

1. Would it be considered unusual to find debits to fixed assets coming from a journal entry source rather than a purchase journal? Explain.

2. Would it be normal to find entries to accumulated depreciation and depreciation expense to come from a journal entry source rather than another source?

3. Assume you were auditing FedEx and in your sample of debits to fixed assets, you find an entry for $500,000 with the following notation: "Capitalization of line capacity per CFO, amounts were originally in corrected recorded as an expense." Explain what you would do to complete the audit of this item. What evidence would you need to see to either corroborate or question the entry?
