Question

Crane Corp. purchased machinery for $312,150 on May 1, 2020. It is estimated that it will have a useful life of 10 years, salvage value of $15,150, production of 237,600 units, and working hours of 25,000. During 2021, Crane Corp. uses the machinery for 2,650 hours, and the machinery produces 25,700 units. From the information given, compute the depreciation charge for 2021 under each of the following methods. (Round intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places, e.g. 5.25 and final answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 45,892.) (a) Straight-line (b) Units-of-output (c) Working hours 0 (d) Sum-of-the-years'-digits 0 (e) Declining-balance (use 20% as the annual rate) 0

Answer 1

Answer

a	Straight Line	$ 29,700.00
b	Units of output	$ 32,125.00
c	Working hours	$ 31,482.00
d	Sum of years digits	$ 50,400.00
e	Declining balance	$ 54,106.00

Calculations:

a	Straight Line	=(312,150-15,150)/10
b	Units of output	=(312150-15,150)/237600*25700
c	Working hours	=(312,150-15,150)/25000*2650
d	Sum of years digits	=((312,150-15,150)/55*10*4/12)+((312,150-15,150)/55*9*8/12)
e	Declining balance	=(312,150-(312,150*20%*8/12))*0.2
