roblems Help Save & Exit Sub Check my work A machine costing $211,200 with a four-year life and an estimated $16,000 salvage value is installed in Luther Company's factory on January 1. The factory manager estimates the machine will produce 488,000 units of product during its life. It actually produces the following units: 122.500 in 1st year, 123,700 in 2nd year, 119,800 in 3rd year, 132,000 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.)

Cost of Equipment: $ 211200 Salvage value: $ 16000 Life; 4 years Depreciable amount: Cost - salvage value =211200-16000 = $ 195,200 Annual Depreciation under SLM = 195200/4 = $48,800 Depreciation per unit: 195200 /488,000 = 0.40 per unit Rate under SLM = 25% Rate under DDM =25*2 =50% Depreciation under SLM: Year Annual Depreciation 1 48800 2 48800 3 48800 4 48800 Depreciation Under Units of Production Year Depreciation units Dep per unit Depreciation expense 1 122500 0.4 49000 2 123700 0.4 49480 3 119800 0.4 47920 4 132000 0.4 48800 (balancing figure) Note: As Actual Production exceed the estimated, the depreciation in Year-4 shall be adjusted for salvage value.
