Question

Problem 11-2 The cost of equipment purchased by Martinez, Inc., on June 1, 2017, is $99,680. It is estimated that the machine will have a $5,600 salvage value at the end of its service life. Its service life is estimated at 7 years, its total working hours are estimated at 47,040, and its total production is estimated at 588,000 units. During 2017, the machine was operated 6,720 hours and produced 61,600 units. During 2018, the machine was operated 6,160 hours and produced 53,760 units. Compute depreciation expense on the machine for the year ending December 31, 2017, and the year ending December 31, 2018, using the following methods. (Round depreciation per unit to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25 and final answers to O decimal places, e.g. 45,892.) 2017 2018 (a) Straight-line (b) Units-of-output (c) Working hours (d) Sum-of-the-years'-digits (e) Double-declining-balance (twice the straight-line rate) s LINK TO TEXT

Explanation / Answer

Solution:

a. Straight line

                    Depreciation           expense

                        2017                       2018

             (99680 – 5600) /7 = 13440

             2017: 13440 x 7/12 =                           7840

             2018:13440                                                                         13440

b. Units of output

(99680 – 5600)/ 588000 = 0.16 units

2017: 0.16 x 61600 =                                          9856

2018: 0.16 x 53760 =                                                                          8602

c.Working hours

(99680 – 5600)/ 47040 = 2.00 hour

2017: 2.00 x 6720 =     13440

2018: 2.00 x 6160 =                                                                          12320

d. Sum of the year’s digits

1 + 2+3 +4 +5 + 6 +7 = 28

2017:7/28 x 94080 x7/12 =                                                                   13720

2018: 7/28 x 94080 x 5/12 =                               9800

6/28 x 94080 x 7/12 =                                       11760

                                                                       21560

e. Double declining balance(twice the straight line rate)

Rate = 2/17

2017: 7/12 x 2/7 x 99680 =                                                                       16613

2018: 2/7 x (99680 – 16613)=                             1186
