Explanation / Answer

Determine depreciation expenses schedule :

Straight line dep = (986200-81400)/3=301600

Unit of production = (986200-81400)/10400=87 per unit

straight line rate= 100/3=33.33%

double decline rat e= 33.33*2=66.67%

Striaght line Unit of production Double decline balance Year 1 301600 348000 657467 Year 2 301600 278400 219155 Year 3 301600 278400 28178 Total 904800 904800 904800
