The following information applies to the questions displayed below In early January 2017, NewTech purchases computer equipment for $259,000 to use in operating activities for the next four years. It estimates the equipment's salvage value at $27,000 Exercise 10-8 Double-declining-balance depreciation LO P1 Prepare a table showing depreciation and book value for each of the four years assuming double-declining-balance depreciation. (Enter all amounts positive values.) iation for the Period End of Period Year Beginning-Year Depreclation Annual Accumulated Year-End Book Value Rate Depreciation Depreciation Book Value 2017 $232.000 2018 2019 116,000 58,000 Prev3 of 9Next >Explanation / Answer
Note : Double - decline - balance (DDB) depreciation = 2 * SLM rate * Book value at the beginning of the year.
Where SLM rate = 1/ estimated useful life = 1 /4 years = 25 % , thus DDB rate = 25 *2 = 50 %
Beginning Year Book Value ($)
[A]
Depreciation Rate
[B]
Annual Depreciation ($)
[C] = A* B
Accumulated Depreciation ($)
[D] = C + Previous row of D
Year End Book Value ($)
[E] = A- C
Note : Under DDB method , depreciation ceases when book value = salvage value . that means we can charge depreciation till the point where book value becomes equal to salvage value. Thus in year 2020 maximum depreciation can be charged is $2,000 so that year end book value matches with the salvage value.
