(Learning Objective 3: Determine depreciation amounts by three methods) PresleyPizza bought a used Ford delivery van on January 2, 2018, for $22,000. The van was expected toremain in service for four years (80,000 miles). At the end of its useful life, Presley managementestimated that the van’s residual value would be $2,000. The van traveled 32,000 miles the firstyear, 28,000 miles the second year, 15,000 miles the third year, and 5,000 miles in the fourth year.Requirements1. Prepare a schedule of depreciation expense per year for the van under the threedepreciation methods discussed in this chapter. (For units-of-production and doubledeclining-balance methods, round to the nearest two decimal places after each step of thecalculation.)2. Which method best tracks the wear and tear on the van?3. Which method would Presley prefer to use for income tax purposes? Explain yourreasoning in detail.
(Learning Objective 3: Compute and record depreciation after a change in usefullife of the asset) Fun Town Amusement Park paid $500,000 for a concession stand.
