Problem 11-02

The cost of equipment purchased by Bramble, Inc., on June 1, 2020, is $92,400. It is estimated that the machine will have a $8,400 salvage value at the end of its service life. Its service life is estimated at 7 years, its total working hours are estimated at 42,000, and its total production is estimated at 600,000 units. During 2020, the machine was operated 6,900 hours and produced 63,200 units. During 2021, the machine was operated 6,320 hours and produced 55,200 units.

Compute depreciation expense on the machine for the year ending December 31, 2020, and the year ending December 31, 2021, using the following methods. (Round depreciation per unit to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25 and final answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 45,892.)

				2020		2021
(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)		$		$

Answer 1

Compute depreciation expense on the machine for the year ending December 31, 2020, and the year ending December 31, 2021, using the following methods. (Round depreciation per unit to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25 and final answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 45,892.)

				2020		2021
(a)		Straight-line		(92400-8400/7)*7/12 = 7000		$12000
(b)		Units-of-output		(92400-8400/600000*63200) = 8848		$7728
(c)		Working hours		(92400-8400/42000*6900) = 13800		$12640
(d)		Sum-of-the-years'-digits		84000*7/28*7/12 = 12250		84000*7/28*5/12+84000*6/28*7/12 = 19250
(e)		Double-declining-balance (twice the straight-line rate)		92400*28.57%*7/12 = 15399		10999+(92400*71.43%*28.57%*7/12) = 21999
