Question

Equipment purchased at the beginning of the fiscal year for $360,000 is expected to have a useful life of 5 years, or 14.000 operating hours, and a residual value of $10,000. Compute the depreciation for the first and second years of use by each of the following methods: Straight-line method: First Year - Second Year- Units-of-production method (1.200 hours first year. 2.250 hours second year): First Year - Second Year Double declining-balance method: First Year - Second Year - (Round the answer to the nearest dollar.)

Explanation / Answer

a) Straight Line Method

Depreciation first year=($360,000-$10,000)/5=$70,000

Depreciation Second year=$70,000

b)

Units Production method

Depreciation first year=($360,000-$10,000)*1,200/14,000=$30,000

Depreciation Second year=$350,000*2,250/14,000=$56,250

c)

Double declaning Balance method

Depreciation Rate=1/5=0.2=20%

double declaning depreciation rate=20%*2=40%

Depreciation first year=$360,000*40%=$144,000

Book value=$360,000-$144,000=$216,000

Depreciation second year=$216,000*40%=$86,400
