Answer:

A) $8,125

Explanation:

Note Slotkin Products uses the double-declining balance method. Under the double-declining balance method depreciation expense is calculated as :

Annual depreciation expense = 2 x SLDP x BVSLDP

where,

SLDP = 100 ÷ Useful life

= 12.5 %

and

BVSLDP = Cost in first year or Book Value for other succeeding years =

therefore,

Annual Depreciation expense = 2 x 12.50 % x $65,000 = $16,250

thus,

Partial depreciation from July 1, 2017 to Dec 31, 2017 - 6 months will be :

Depreciation expense = $16,250 x 6/12 = $8,125

Conclusion :

Depreciation for 2017 is $8,125
