residual value.
On January 1, Year 1, a company purchases a machine for $18,000. The estimated residual value is $6,000, and the estimated service life is 8 years or 30,000 units. After three years of use, the company estimates the remaining service life of the machine to be nine years rather than the original eight. Using the straight-line method, calculate the amount of depreciation for Year 4. $1,250 $1,333 $1,500 $2,250
$1,250 = ($18,000 − $6,000)/8 = $1,500. = $1,500 × 3 = $4,500 = $18,000 − $4,500 = $13,500 = ($13,500 − $6,000)/6 = $1,250.
Windsor Hospital purchases $90,000 in surgical equipment on October 1, Year 1. The useful life is estimated to be 5 years, and the residual value is estimated to be $10,000. What will be the depreciation expense reported for this equipment in Year 1 if the hospital uses the straight-line method? $16,000 $8,000 $4,000 $2,667
$4,000 [($90,000 − $10,000)/5] × 3/12.
A company purchases a machine for $10,000. The estimated residual value is $4,000, and the estimated service life is 4 years or 10,000 units. The company uses the straight-line method of depreciation. The depreciable cost of the asset is: $1,000 $1,500 $6,000 $10,000
$6,000
Prime, Inc., purchases $100,000 in construction machinery on January 1, Year 1. The useful life is estimated to be 8 years, and the residual value is estimated to be $20,000. What will be the depreciation rate if the company uses the double-declining-balance method? 25% 40% 20% 12.5%
25% 100,000 x 2/8
Depreciable Cost Total units expected to be produced
Depreciation rate per unit
Cost-Residual Value = Life
Straight Line Depreciation (Annual Depreciation Expense)
The formula for calculating the double-declining-balance method is -historical cost x 1/service life. -book value at beginning of the year less residual value x 2/ estimated service life. -historical cost less residual value x 2/estimated service life. -book value at beginning of year x 2/estimated service life
book value at beginning of year x 2/estimated service life
