Question

Problem 9-3 On January 1, 2015, Evers Company purchased the following two machines for use in its production process Machine A: The cash price of this machine was $38,800. Related expenditures included: sales ta $3,500, shipping costs $120 insurance during shipping $70 installation and testing costs100 and S 140 of oil and I bricants to be used with the Machine B: The recorded cost of this machine was $200,000. Evers estimates that the useful life of the machine is 4 years with a $11,400 salvage value remaining at the end of that time period. machinery during its first year of operations. Evers estimates that the useful life of the machine is 5 years with a $5,100 salvage value remaining at the end of that time period. Assume that the straight-line method of depreciation is used. Your answer is correct. Prepare the following for Machine A. (Round answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 2,125. If no entry is required, select "No entry" for the account titles and enter 0 for the amounts. Credit account titles are automatically indented whern amount Is entered. Do not indent manually.) 1.

Try again Calculate the amount of depreciation expense that Evers should record for Machine B each year of its useful life under the following assumptions. (Round final answers to O decimal places, e.g. 2,125) (1) Evers uses the straight-line method of depreciation. (2) Evers uses the declining-balance method. The rate used is twice the straight-line rate. (3) Evers uses the units-of activity method and estimates that the useful lfe of the machine is 145,800 units. Actual usage is as follows: 2015, S2,200 units; 2016, 40,400 units; 2017, 30, 100 units; 2018, 23,100 units Straight-line methord 47150 50000 52116 47150 12500 29799 47150 47150 100000 25000 Units of-activity method 67338 38829 SHOW LIST OF ACCOUNTS LINK TO TEXT

In the year 2018, Book value (opening) comes out to be $25000. Applying the 50% rate, the depreciation expense would be $12500. But the depreciation of $12500 would make the closing book value (for 2018) equal to $12500. However, the closing book value for 2018 needs to be $11400 (which is Salvage value at the end of useful life). Hence, instead of $12500, $13600 will be depreciated.
