Question

Homework Help Save & Exit Submit Check my work A machine costing $208,200 with a four-year life and an estimated $17,000 salvage value is installed in Luther Company's factory on January 1. The factory manager estimates the machine will produce 478,000 units of product during its life. It actually produces the following units: 121,800 in 1st year, 122,600 in 2nd year, 120,200 in 3rd year, 123,400 in 4th year. The total number of units produced by the end of year 4 exceeds the original estimate-this difference was not predicted. (The machine must not be depreciated below its estimated salvage value.) Required: Compute depreciation for each year (and total depreciation of all years combined) for the machine under each depreciation method (Round your per unit depreciation to 2 decimal places. Round your answers to the nearest whole dollar)

Explanation / Answer

Req 1: Cost of machine: $ 208200 Salvage value: $ 17000 Life: 4 years Annual Depreciation: (Cost -salaveg value)/ Life = (208200-17000)/4= $47800 Depreciation Under SLM YEAR Depreciation Expense 1 47800 2 47800 3 47800 4 47800 Total 191200 Req 2: Cost of machine: $ 208200 Salvage value: $ 17000 Life: 478000 Depreciation per unit: (cost -salvage life) / Life = (208200-17000)/478000 = $ 0.40 per unit DEPRECIATION UNDER UNIT OF PRODUCTION YEAR DEP.UNITS DEP.
