Explanation / Answer
1.
Accumulated depreciation at end of second year=($17,100-$4,050)*2/8=$3,262.5
2.
the depreciation for the first year of its life using double declining balance method.
Straight-line Depreciation Rate = 1 ÷ 7= 0.0.14285= 14.29%
Declining Balance Rate = 2 × 14.29% = 28.58%
Depreciation = 28.58% × $26,000 = $7,431
calculate the depreciation of the asset for the second year of its life.
Solution
Declining Balance Rate = 28.58%
Book Value = Cost Accumulated Depreciation = $20,000 $7,431 = $18,569
Depreciation = 28.58% × $18,659 = $5,307
3.
Accumulated depreciation at end of second year=($54,000-$6,400)*2/5=$19,040
Book value at end of second year=$54,000-$19,040=$34,960
the loss on the sale=$26,000-$34,960=-$8,960
