Answer: Air travel is a normal good and vacation travel by car is an inferior good

Explanation: What is a normal good and what is an inferior good.

Normal goods are those goods for which the demand rises as consumer income rises. While inferior goods are goods whose demand increases when consumer income decreases.

This therefore means that the demand of inferior goods is inversely related to the income of the consumer.

From the question above, we can say that car trips are inferior goods while the air travel are normal goods.

RSB [31]

Answer:

(1) Straight-line.

Year 1 depreciation expense = $6,500

Year 2 depreciation expense = $6,500

(2) Double-declining-balance.

Year 1 depreciation expense = $16,000

Year 2 depreciation expense = $8,000

(3) Activity-based.

Year 1 depreciation expense = $7,000

Year 1 depreciation expense = $7,600

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Speedy Delivery Company purchases a delivery van for $32,000. Speedy estimates that at the end of its four-year service life, the van will be worth $6,000. During the four-year period, the company expects to drive the van 130,000 miles. Actual miles driven each year were 35,000 miles in year 1 and 38,000 miles in year 2.

Required:

Calculate annual depreciation for the first two years of the van using each of the following methods.

(1) Straight-line.

(2) Double-declining-balance.

(3) Activity-based.

The explanation of the answers is now given as follows:

(1) Straight-line.

Depreciable amount = Cost of the delivery van – Salvage value = $32,000 - $6,000 = $26,000

Annual depreciation rate = 1 / Number of useful years = 1 / 4 = 0.25, or 25%

Year 1 depreciation expense = Depreciable amount * Annual depreciation rate = $26,000 * 25% = $6,500

Year 2 depreciation expense = Depreciable amount * Annual depreciation rate = $26,000 * 25% = $6,500

(2) Double-declining-balance.

Note: The salvage value is taken care of in the computation of the depreciation expense for the last useful year under the double-declining-balance method.

Therefore, we have:

Cost of the delivery van = $32,000

Annual depreciation rate = Straight line annual depreciation rate * 2 = 25% * 2 = 50%

Year 1 depreciation expense = Cost of the delivery van * Annual depreciation rate = $32,000 * 50% = $16,000

Book value at the end of year 1 = Cost of the delivery van - Year 1 depreciation expense = $36,000 - $16,000 = $16,000

Year 2 depreciation expense = Book value at the end of year 1 * Annual depreciation rate = $16,000 * 50% = $8,000

(3) Activity-based.

Depreciable amount = Cost of the delivery van – Salvage value = $32,000 - $6,000 = $26,000

Depreciation rate = Actual miles driven each year / Expected driven miles for four years ……….. (1)

Depreciation expense for each year = Depreciable amount * Depreciation rate …………… (2)

Using equations (2), we have:

Year 1 depreciation expense = $26,000 * (35,000 / 130,000) = $7,000

Year 1 depreciation expense = $26,000 * (38,000 / 130,000) = $7,600
