Since Firm B cost of Cleanup before it gets the the river is less than the cost of pollution permits, it will choose to clean up its pollution.

However, since Firm A cleanup cost per ton ($100) is greater than the cost of the pollution permit, it will choose to buy permits.

Maximum Allowable Number of Permits=40

Therefore, Firm A will clean up 10 Tons and dump 40 Tons of Waste.

Cost =(10 Tons *$100)+(40 Tons * $75)

=$(1000+3000)

=$4000.

Firm A will spend $4000.

On January 1, 2021, the Allegheny Corporation purchased equipment for $115,000. The estimated service life of the equipment is 1
Rasek [7]

Solution:

Straight-Line Depreciation

Choose Numerator: / Choose Denominator = Annual Depreciation Expense

Cost minus Salvage / Estimated Useful Life (years) = Depreciation Expense

$110,000 / 10 = $11,000

Depreciation Expense

2016            $11,000

2017            $11,000

Sum-of-the-years' digits depreciation

Depreciable Base x Rate per Year = Depreciation Expense

2016 $110,000 x 10/55 = $20,000

2017 $110,000 x 9/55 = $18,000

Depreciation for the Period End of Period

Annual Period Beginning of Period Book Value Depreciation Rate Depreciation Expense Accumulated Depreciation Book Value

2016        $115,000 20%      $23,000    $23,000   $92,000

2017         $92,000 20%     $18,400     $41,400     $73,600

Depreciation for the Period End of Period

Annual Period Beginning of Period Book Value Depreciation Rate Depreciation Expense Accumulated Depreciation Book Value

2016        $115,000 15%     $17,250    $17,250   $97,750

2017         $97,750 15%     $14,663     $31,913    $83,087

Select formula for Units of Production Depreciation:

(Cost - Salvage) / Total units of production

Calculate 2016 depreciation expense:

Depreciation per unit rate $0.50

Units produced in 2016 30,000

Depreciation in 2016 $15,000

Calculate 2017 depreciation expense:

Depreciation per unit rate $0.50

Units produced in 2017 25,000

Depreciation in 2017 $12,500
