Explanation / Answer

Answer 1 Depreciation per year using straight line method = (Cost - salvage value)/useful life = ($213000 - $17000)/4 = $49000 Straight Line Depreciation Year Depreciation 1 $49,000 2 $49,000 3 $49,000 4 $49,000 Total $196,000 Answer 2 Depreciation per unit of production = (Cost - salvage value)/Estimated production in units during lifetime Depreciation per unit of production = ($213000-$17000)/490000 units = $0.40 per unit Units of production Year Depreciable units Depreciation per unit Depreciation 1             122,700 0.4 $49,080 2             122,500 0.4 $49,000 3             120,500 0.4 $48,200 4             134,300 balance $49,720 Total $196,000 Answer 3 Double declining balance method Depreciation per year = 2*straight line depreciation rate * Book value of asset at the beginning of the year Straight line depreciation rate = $49000 / $196000 = 25% DDB Depreciation for the period End of period Year Beginning of period book Value Depreciation rate Depreciation Expense Accumulated Depreciation Book Value 1 $213,000 50% $106,500 $106,500 $106,500 2 $106,500 50% $53,250 $159,750 $53,250 3 $53,250 50% $26,625 $186,375 $26,625 4 $26,625 balance $9,625 $196,000 $17,000 $196,000
