$1,212 (600,000 * 0.01) = 6000 (600,000 - (7200-6000) = 598,800 (598,800*0.01) = 5,988 (7,200 - 5,988) = 1,212

A company purchased factory equipment on April 1, 2016 for $160,000. It is estimated that the equipment will have a $20,000 salvage value at the end of its 10-year useful life. Using the straight-line method of depreciation, the amount to be recorded as depreciation expense at December 31, 2016 is:
$10,500 $160,000 - $20,000 = $140,000/10 * 9/12 = $10,500
On October 1, 2016, Holt Company places a new asset into service. The cost of the asset is $120,000 with an estimated 5-year life and $30,000 salvage value at the end of its useful life. What is the book value of the plant asset on the December 31, 2016, balance sheet assuming that Holt Company uses the double-declining-balancing method of depreciation?
$108,000 $120,000 - $30,000 = $90,000 ($90,000/5) = $18,000 $18,000 + $90,000 = $108,000

$11,250 the depreciation rate would be 25% or (1/8 × 2). For 2019, annual depreciation expense is $15,000 ($60,000 book value × 25%); for 2020, annual depreciation expense is $11,250 [($60,000 − $15,000) × 25%]
Able Towing Company purchased a tow truck for $60,000 on January 1, 2017. It was originally depreciated on a straight-line basis over 10 years with an assumed salvage value of $12,000.

What was the depreciation expense for 2019?
$12,100 First, calculate accumulated depreciation from January 1, 2017, through December 31, 2018, which is $9,600 {[($60,000 − $12,000)/10 years] × 2 years}. Next, calculate the revised depreciable cost, which is $48,400 ($60,000 − $9,600 − $2,000). Thus, the depreciation expense for 2019 is $12,100 ($48,400/4)

It is to be depreciated using the units-of-activity method of depreciation. What is the amount of depreciation for the second full year, during which the machine was used 5,000 hours?

Micah Bartlett Company purchased equipment on January 1, 2018, at a total invoice cost of $400,000. The equipment has an estimated salvage value of $10,000 and an estimated useful life of 5 years. The amount of accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2019, if the straight-line method of depreciation is used, is:
$156,000 ($400,000 − $10,000)/5 = $78,000. The sum of 2 years' depreciation is therefore $156,000 ($78,000 + $78,000)
Bennie Razor Company has decided to sell one of its old manufacturing machines on June 30, 2019. The machine was purchased for $80,000 on January 1, 2015, and was depreciated on a straight-line basis for 10 years assuming no salvage value. If the machine was sold for $26,000, what was the amount of the gain or loss recorded at the time of the sale?
$18,000 First, the book value needs to be determined. The accumulated depreciation as of June 30, 2019, is $36,000 [($80,000/10) × 4.5 years]. Thus, the cost of the machine less accumulated depreciation equals $44,000 ($80,000 − $36,000). The loss recorded at the time of sale is $18,000
An asset was purchased for $250,000. It had an estimated salvage value of $50,000 and an estimated useful life of 10 years. After 5 years of use, the estimated salvage value is revised to $40,000 but the estimated useful life is unchanged. Assuming straight-line depreciation, depreciation expense in year 6 would be:
$22,000 ($250,000 - $50,000) * 5/10 = $100,000 ($250,000 - $40,000 - $100,000)/ (10-5) = $22,000

Sargent Corporation bought equipment on January 1, 2016. The equipment cost $360,000 and had an expected salvage value of $60,000. The life of the equipment was estimated to be 6 years. Assuming straight-line depreciation, the book value of the equipment at the beginning of the third year would be:
$260,000 ($360,000-$60,000)/6 = $50,000 $50,000 * 2 = $100,000 $360,000 - $100,000 = $260,000

A factory machine was purchased for $375,000 on January 1, 2016. It was estimated that it would have a $75,000 salvage value at the end of its 5-year useful life. It was also estimated that the machine would be run 40,000 hours in the 5 years. The company ran the machine for 4,000 actual hours in 2016. If the company uses the units-of-activity method of depreciation, the amount of depreciation expense for 2016 would be
$30,000 40,000/4,000 = 10 ($375,000-$75,000)/10 = $30,000

On January 1, 2016, Nicholson decided the equipment will last 12 years from the date of purchase. The salvage value is still estimated at $20,000. Using the straight-line method the new annual depreciation will be:
$4,500 ($80,000 - $20,000) * 2/8 = $15,000 ($80,000 - $20,000 - $15,000) = $45,000/ (12-2) = $4,500

A plant asset cost $288,000 and is estimated to have a $36,000 salvage value at the end of its 8-year useful life. The annual depreciation expense recorded for the third year using the double-declining-balance method would be
