Answer and Explanation:
A. The computation of he depreciation for the current fiscal year and for the following fiscal year using the straight-line method is shown below:-
= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (estimated useful life)
= ($105,000 - $12,000) ÷ (10 years)
= $9,300
For the current year, the depreciation expense is
= $9,300 × 8 months ÷ 12 months
= $6,200
The 8 months are calculated from May 1 to December 31
And, for the following fiscal year , the depreciation expense is $9,300
B. The computation of depreciation for the current fiscal year and for the following fiscal year using the double-declining-balance method is shown below:-
But before that
Rate of depreciation under double declining depreciation = 2 × (1 ÷ Life) × 100
= 2 × (1 ÷ 10) × 100
= 20%
1st Year depreciation = Equipment cost × Rate of depreciation under double declining depreciation × Beginning may ÷ Ending December
= $105,000 × 20% × 8 ÷ 12
= $14,000
2nd year depreciation = Depreciation on $105,000 for the four months at 20%
= Equipment cost × Rate of depreciation under double declining depreciation × Remaining months ÷ Ending December
= $105,000 × 20% × 4 ÷ 12
= $7,000
and now we calculate the 20% on balance in machinery for 8 months.
Balance = Equipment cost - 1st Year depreciation - 2nd Year depreciation
= $105,000 - $14,000 - $7,000
= $84,000
Depreciation = Balance Rate of depreciation under double declining depreciation × Beginning may ÷ Ending December
= $84,000 × 20% × 8 ÷ 12
= $11,200
Total depreciation in year 2 = 2nd year depreciation + Depreciation
= $7,000 + $11,200
= $18,200
1. Based on the straight-line method, the Depreciation Expense for the current fiscal year is $6,200 ($9,300 x 8/12).
2. Based on the straight-line method, the Depreciation Expense for the following fiscal year is $9,300 ($93,000/10).
3. Based on the double-declining-balance method, the Depreciation Expense for the current fiscal year is $14,000.
4. Based on the double-declining-balance method, the Depreciation Expense for the following fiscal year is $18,200.
Data and Calculations:
Cost of equipment = $105,000
Estimated residual value = $12,000
Estimated useful life = 10 years
Date of put into use = May 1
Depreciable amount = $93,000 ($105,000 - $12,000)
Annual depreciation expense based on the straight-line method = $9,300 (93,000/10)
Double-declining=balance method:
Depreciation rate = 20% (100/10 x 2)
Depreciation for the first year = $14,000 ($105,000 x 20% x 8/12)
Reduced balance after the first year = $91,000 ($105,000 - $14,000)
Depreciation for the second year = $18,200 ($91,000 x 20%)
