Composite rate of Depreciation =

Total Depreciation per year/Total Original Cost

(18745/175490)

10.68%

Answer b)

Depreciation Expense-Plant Asset

$    18,745.00

             Accumulated Depreciation-Plant Asset

$ 18,745.00

(Depreciation charged @10.68% on composite Assets)

Answer c)

Cash

$      5,520.00

Accumulated Depreciation-Plant Assets

$    16,330.00

                    D Asset

$ 21,850.00

(Sale of asset D and difference booked as Accumulated Depreciation)

Note

In case of sale of asset which is depreciated under composite method, no Profit or loss is booked and the difference is booked as Accumulated depreciation.

In answer no (b) The amount of depreciation may comes to $18742.33 .This is because of round off of depreciation rate. Actual depreciation would be $18745.
