On October 30, Cleo Co. purchased a machine for $26,000 and estimates it will use the machine for four-years with a $2,000 salvage value. Using the straight-line depreciation method, compute the machine's first year partial depreciation expense for October 30 through December 31. $6,000 $1,500 $3,000 $1,000
$1,000 Reason: This is a partial year depreciation. $26,000 - 2,000 = $24,000/4 = $6000 per year. $6000 x 2/12 = $1,000.
Tops Co. purchases equipment for $12,000 and has been using straight-line depreciation, estimating a 5-year life and $500 salvage value. At the beginning of the third year, Tops decides to use the equipment for a total of 6-years with no salvage value. Compute the revised depreciation for the third year. $1,850 $2,375 $2,875 $1,250
$1,850 Reason: (12,000-500)/5=2,300 per year. $2,300 x 2 years = $4,600 depreciation taken. Book value at beginning of year 3 = $12,000-4,600= $7,400/4 = $1,850.
Mohr Company purchases a machine at the beginning of the year at a cost of $36,000. The machine is depreciated using the double-declining-balance method. The machine's useful life is estimated to be 5 years with a $5,000 salvage value. The machine's book value at the end of year 2 is: $18,600. $10,200. $14,400. $12,960. $21,600.
$12,960.
On June 1, Harding Co. purchased a machine for $14,000 and estimates it will use the machine for five-years with a $2,000 salvage value. Using the straight-line depreciation method, compute the machine's first year (partial) depreciation expense for June 1st through December 31st. $2,400 $1,400 $1,200 $1,000 $2,800
$1400 Reason: (14,000-2000)/5 x 7/12=1,400 for a partial year depreciation The partial year depreciation should be recorded for seven months (June 1- December 31).
Ion Co. purchased land for $190,000. Ion also paid $5,000 in real estate commissions, $1,000 in legal fees, and $500 in title insurance fees. Ion should record the cost of this land at: $195,500 $196,500 $190,000 $196,000 $195,000

$2,812.50 Reason: Salvage value is not subtracted up front with the double-declining balance method. (100%/8=.125) x 2=25%. 15,000 x 25%=3,750 for first year. Second year=(15,000-3750) x 25% =2812.50. The question asked for the second year depreciation expense.

$250,000 Reason: 200,000+15,000+35,000=250,000
Bina Co. purchased a machine on January 1st for $15,000 and estimates it will use the machine for three years with a $3,000 salvage value. Bina estimates that they will produce 1,500 units during year one, 1,000 units during year two, and 1,250 units during year three. Using the units-of-production method, compute the machine's second year depreciation expense. $3,200 $4,800 $3,750 $4,000
$3,200 Reason: $15,000 - $3,000 = $12,000. Total units = 1,500 + 1,000 + 1,250 = 3,750. $12,000 / 3,750 = $3.20 per unit. Year two 1,000 x $3.20 = $3,200.
