Question
On January 1, Year 1, Andrei’s Design Inc., purchased equipment for $60,000. Residual value at the end of an estimated four-year service life is expected to be $10,000. The company expects the machine to operate for 20,000 hours. The machine operated for 3,600 and 4,000 hours in Year 1 and Year 2, respectively. The company uses the units-of-production method. For how much would each item below be reported at the end of Year 2?
Explanation / Answer
note:
depreciation per unit = (cost - salvage value) / number of units expected to operate.
=> (60,000 - 10,000) / 20,000 hours
=>$2.5 per hour.
1. depreciation expense in year 2 = 4,000 hours used * $2.5 =>$10,000.
2.accumulated depreciation = (3600 hours +4,000 hours used till end of year 2 ) * $2.5 per hour
=>$19,000
3.book value = cost - accumulated depreciation =$60,000 - $19,000
=>$41,000.
1. depreciation expense $10,000 2.accumulated depreciation $19,000 3. book value $41,000
