Explanation / Answer

7) ANSWER

Here Cost of the building = $60000

Life = 20 years

Salvage value = 0

Depreciation = (Cost - Salvage)/life

Thus depreciation for One year = (60000-0)/20 = $3000 per year

So depreciation for 4 years = 3000*4 = $12000

Book value of the building after 4 years = cost - depreciation for 4 years

                                                               = 60000-12000= $ 48000

Hence , our answer is a) $48000

10) ANSWER

Here we are provided with the following information:

Cost = $ 8000

Salvage value = $1000

Life = 5 Years

So in double declining balance method, we figure out the Rate of depreciation and then double that rate to find the double declining rate of depreciation.

Rate of depreciation = 1/life *100= 1/5 *100 = 20%

Double decline rate of depreciation = 20*2= 40%

So depreciation for year $3200

Our answer is b) $3200

11) Answer

It is the cost minus the expected salvage value.

Our answer is b) the salvage value.

12) ANSWER

Rate of Depreciation = 1/life=   1/8 = 0.125

DDB RATE = rate of depreciation *2 = 0.125*2= 0.25

Answer is c) .25

13) Accumulated depreciation - equipment is recorded on Balance sheet.

Answer : A) Balance Sheet

14) c) MACRS

15) c) Current fair market value.
