Explanation / Answer

a) Depreciation under SLM Annual Dep = ($ 298620- $ 13200)/8 = $ 35678 Depreciation for year 2014 = $ 35678/12 X 3 = $ 8920 b) Depreciation under activity method (unit of output) Depreciation for year 2014 = (298620-13200)/40200 X 1000 = $ 7100 C) Depreciation under activity method (working hour) Depreciation for year 2014 = (298620-13200)/19800 X 590 = $ 8505 d) Depreciation under sum of year digit method Sum of year's digit = n(n+1)/2 = 8(8+1)/2 =36 Depreciation Base = $ 298620-$ 13200 = $ 285420 Year Depreciatable Base Depreciation Factor Month Depreciation Expenses Accumulated Dep 2014 285420 8/36 3        15,857        15,857 2015 285420 8/36 9        47,570        63,427 285420 7/36 3        13,875        77,301        61,445 2016 285420 7/36 9        41,624     1,18,925 285420 6/36 3        11,893     1,30,818        53,516 Depreiciation for year 2016 = $ 53516 e) Depreciation under Double decling method Depreciation Year Asset Double Decline method Net book Value 2014        2,98,620                        18,664        2,79,956 (298620/8*2)/12*3 2015        2,79,956                        69,989        2,09,967 (279956/8*2) Depreciation for year 2015 = $ 69989
