Answer:

First Year Depreciation: 12,400

Second Year Depreciation: 7,440

Explanation:

straight-line depreciation \times 2 = \frac{1}{5} \times 2 = \frac{2}{5}

\left[\begin{array}{ccccc}Year&Beginning\:Book&Dep \:Expense&Acc\:Dep&Ending\:Book\\0&-&-&-&31000\\1&31000&12400&12400&18600\\2&18600&7440&19840&11160\\3&11160&4464&24304&6696\\4&6696&2678.4&26982.4&4017.6\\5&4017.6&2017.6&29000&2000\end{array}\right]

To calculate each period depreciation we multiply the book value by the double-declining rate of 2/5

At the last year, you will depreciate until salvage value is reached.

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

First option will be recommended.

Explanation:

To determine which option to be taken, we calculate the net present value each option generates. The option generating higher NPV should be recommended.

- Net present value of first option = Lump sum receipt = $150,000.

- Net present value of second option will be found by discounting cash flows at investing rate 12% and calculated as followed:

 +  Present value of 20 equal annual payment of $14,000 + Present value of $60,000 paid in 20 years = (14,000/12%) x [ 1 - 1.12^(-20)] + 60,000/1.12^20 = $110,792.

As net present value of the first option is higher than the second option, first option will be recommended.
