Homework Answers

Answer #1

Ans:

A). Depreciation expense for 2017= (111,400-69,625)

=41,775

(Depreciation expense is the difference between accumulated depreciation for two years)

B). Original cost of equipment=

We know Straight line method of depreciation = cost- salvage value/ estimated useful life

41,775 = (x-28,100)/4

41775*4= x-28,100

167,100=x-28,100

195,200= X

thus cost- 195,200

C). The correct option for depreciation method which is apparently being used is A i.e. Straight- line method

D). the correct option for the above answer is option A i.e. May 1, 2015

value as on may 1,2015 =195,200

Less: depreciation for 8 months (41775*8/12)= (27850)

Value on 1 jan 2016= 167350

Less: depreciation for year (41775)

value on 31 dec 2016= 125575
