At the end of 2007 what was the accumulated depreciation for each method? C. What was the book value at December 31, 2008 under earch method? D. What is the depreciable base for each method? 2.

Explanation / Answer

Straight line method =Asset value-scrap value/life of the asset

=$75,000-$15,000/5= $12000

B)End of 2007 Accumulated depreciation in Straight line method(12000+12000+12000)=$36000

C)Book value at Dec 31st 2008=75000-15000-$48000=$12000

(4*12000=$48000)

Declining Balance method:

Useful life = 5 years --> Straight line depreciation rate = 1/5 = 20% per year

       Depreciation rate for declining balance method

B) At the end of 2007 accumulated depreciation

in 2005 75000*20%=15000

in 2006 (75000-15000)*20%=12000

in 2007 (75000-15000-12000)*20%=9600

Accumulated Depreciation =15000+12000+9600=$36600

Book value at Dec'2008

in 2008 (75000-15000-12000-9600)*20%=$7680

=75000-15000-12000-9600-7680=$30720

Units of Activity method:

Depreciable base=Asset cost -salvage value=75000-15000=$60000

Depreciation per hour used=$60000/10000=6hrs

in 2005 machine used 1910hrs=1910*6=11460$

in 2006 machine used 2095hrs =2095*6=12570$

in 2007 machine used 2280hrs=2280*6=13680$

in 2008 machine used 2210hrs=2210*6=13260$

in 2007 Accumulated dep=11460+12570+13680=37710$

in 2008 Bookvalue 60000-50970=$9030
