To
determine what the depreciation of an asset using straight line method, the
formula to be used is:
(Initial
cost of machine – salvage value) divided by estimated useful life
So in
this problem:
Initial Cost
- $135000
Salvage
Value – $15000
Estimated
Useful Life – 5 years
Plug that
in the formula
Annual
depreciation = ($135000 - $15000) / 5
= $120000/
5
= $24,000
The first
year depreciation for the machine is $24000 because the company bought it in
the beginning of the year. (So there is no need to divide this by 12 months)
To record
this:
Depreciation
Expense $24000
<span> Accumulated Depreciation $24000</span>
