A machine with a 4-year estimated useful life and an estimated 15% residual value was acquired on January 1. Would depreciation expense using the sum-of-the-years-digits method be higher or lower than depreciation expense using the double-declining balance method in the first and second years:
A fixed asset with a 5-year estimated useful life is sold during the second year. How would the use of the straight-line method of depreciation instead of the double-declining-balance method of depreciation affect the amount of gain or loss on the sale of the fixed asset?
Albany Corporation purchased equipment at the beginning of Year 1 for 75,000. The asset does not have a residual value and is estimated to be in service for 8 years. Calculate the depreciation expense for Years 1 and 2 using the double-declining-balance method. Round to the nearest dollar.
A machine costing 350,000 has a salvage value of 15,000 and an estimated life of three years. Prepare depreciation schedules reporting the depreciation expense, accumulated depreciation, and book value of the machine for each year under the double-declining-balance and sum-of-the-years-digits methods. For the double-declining-balance method, round the depreciation rate to two decimal places.
On May 10, 2019, Horan Company purchased equipment for 25,000. The equipment has an estimated service life of 5 years and zero residual value. Assume that the straight-line depreciation method is used. Required: Compute the depreciation expense for 2019 for each of the following four alternatives: 1. Horan computes depreciation expense to the nearest day. (Use 12 months of 30 days each and round the daily depreciation rate to 2 decimal places.) 2. Horan computes depreciation expense to the nearest month. Assets purchased in the first half of the month are considered owned for the whole month. 3. Horan computes depreciation expense to the nearest whole year. Assets purchased in the first half of the year are considered owned for the whole year. 4. Horan records one-half years depreciation expense on all assets purchased during the year.
