A surface mount placement machine is being purchased for $1576000; it has an estimated useful life of 8 years and a salvage value of $58900 at that time. Determine the depreciation allowance for the 5th year and the book value at the end of the 5th year using Declining Balance where the depreciation rate is determined by the salvage value and time in service. what is the depreciation rate?
%
d5 = $
B5 = $
Depreciation rate = 1/number of years ago *2 =1/8*2 = 25%
Depreciation year 1 =1576000*25%=394000
Book value year 1 = 1576000-394000= 1182000
Depreciation year 2=1182000*25%= 295500
Book value year 2= 1182000-295500 = 886500
Depreciation year 3= 886500*25%=221625
Book value year 3 = 886500-221625 =664875
Depreciation year 4= 664875*25%=166219
Book value year 4 = 664875-166219 = 498656
Depreciation year 5 = 498656*25%=124664
Book value year 5 =498656-124664 =373992
