Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": The use of a higher estimated life and a higher residual value will lower the annual amount of depreciation expense recognized on the income statement.

Explanation:

Depreciation distributes the cost and cost over the useful life of the assets of tangible and real assets. A business could depreciate an asset over a period of up to thirty years, depending on the type of asset it is. There are many depreciation methods but, among the most common we can find the <em>Straight-line method, the Double Declining Balance method</em>, and <em>the Units of Production method</em>. As long as the estimated life of the asset and its residual value is high, the amount filed for the depreciation will be lower.

A company purchased a delivery van for $23,000 with a salvage value of $3,000 on September 1, 2008. It has an estimated useful l
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The value to depreciate is always the total asset value minus the salvage value. In this case, $23,000-$3000=$20,000. The straight line method formula is:

Depreciation  = value to depreciate/useful years

Depreciation (year) = $20,000/5= $4,000

This formula calculates de depreciation expense each year from the purchase date, which means that on septemeber 1 of 2009 the company will register a depreciation expense of $4,000. But, from september 1,2008 to  December 31, 2008 is less than a year we have to calculate the depreciation for each month.

Depreciation (month)= $4,000/12= $333,33

But since that depreciation would be for december 1, we need to calculate the depreciation for each day

Depreciation (day) = $333,33/31 = $10,75

From september 1 to december 1: 3 months, then $333,333 x 3= $1000

And from december 1 to december 31: 30 days, then $10,75 x 30= $322, 58

The depreciation expense on December 31 is: $1000+$322,= $1322,58 that is almost $1,333. On January 1 the depreciation expense would be $1,333.

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

$4,870.5

Explanation:

Annual Depreciation Expense:

= [(Cost - Salvage Value) × Machine Usage in 2020] ÷ Total Estimated Working Hours

Depreciation Expense for 2020 (for 3 months only - October to December):

= [($115,900 - $13,900) × 1,910] ÷ (10,000) × (3/12)

= ($102,000 × 1,910) ÷ (10,000) × (1/4)

= $19,482 × (1/4)

= $4,870.5

Notes:

Depreciation will be calculated for only 3 months since the asset has been acquired on 1st October 2020.
