Iverson Company purchased a delivery truck for $45,000 on January 1, 2020. The truck was assigned an estimated useful life of 100,000 miles and has a residual value of $10,000. The truck was driven 18,000 miles in 2020 and 22,000 miles in 2021. Compute depreciation expense using the units-of-activity method for the years 2020 and 2021.
Depreciation expense for 2020 $
Depreciation expense for 2021 $
Answer -
Annual Depreciation Expenses for 2020 = $6,300
Annual Depreciation Expenses for 2021 = $7,700
Explanation -
Annual Depreciation Expenses = (Cost of truck – Residual Value) / Estimated Total Miles * Actual Miles
Annual Depreciation Expenses for 2020 = {($45000 - $10000) / 100000} * 18000
Annual Depreciation Expenses for 2020 = $6,300
Annual Depreciation Expenses for 2021 = {($45000 - $10000) / 100000} * 22000
Annual Depreciation Expenses for 2021 = $7,700
