APPLY THE CONCEPTS: Calculate and determine the entry for straight-line depreciation

The equipment purchased by Petroxy Oil Corporation (see the journal entry above) is expected to have a useful life of four years. At the end of its useful life, the residual value of the equipment is estimated to be $6,000. Petroxy Oil Corporation’s fiscal year ends each December 31.

In the table to the below, calculate the equipment’s depreciation expense, the balance of accumulated depreciation, and the book value for each year the equipment is expected to be in service, using the straight-line method.

Explanation / Answer

Depreciation

Asset value: 99700+100= 99800

Residual value = 6000

Depreciation = 99800-6000/4=23450 per year

So 6 month depreciation = 23450/2=11725
