Options :

A) Straight-line

B) Units-of-production

C) Double-declining-balance

D) All methods produce the same expense in 2017

Answer:

C.) Double declining balance

Explanation:

Given the following:

Cost of tractor = $120,000

Salvage value = $20,000

Estimated life = 8 years or 12000 hours of operation

Purchase date = January 1, 2016

2016 usage = 2400 hours

2017 usage = 2100 hours

Depreciation Expense :

Using the straight line Depreciation :

(120,000 - 20,000) / 8 = 100,000 / 8 = $12,500

Double declining balance :

(100%)/8 = (0.125) * 2 = 0.25

0.25 * 120,000 = 30,000

Unit of production:

(120,000 - 20,000) * (2100 / 12,000)

= 100,000 * 0.175 = $17500
