Answer:

$2,000

Explanation:

Net book value at the end of the 3rd year=26,000-((26,000-2,000/6)*3)

Since the useful life of machine is now revised from the 6 years to 10 years, therefore the total remaining useful life of machine is now 7 years instead of 3 years and accordingly the depreciation from year 4 to year 10 shall be calculated as follows:

Crank

Answer: a. 0.042 b. 0.086 c. 0.00692

Explanation:

NOTE: Convert months to years. So 24 months = 2 years.

a. Six months

Months to year conversion gives: 6months/24months as 1/4 years

= (1 + 18%)^ 1/4 — 1 x 100%

= 1.042 — 1

= 0.042

Equivalent Discount Rate = 0.042

b. One year

12months/24months as 1/2 years

= (1 + 18%)^1/2 — 1 x 100%

= 0.086

Equivalent Discount Rate = 0.086

c. 1 month

1month/24months as 1/24 years

= (1 + 18%)^1/24 — 1 x 100%

= 0.00692
