Perdue Company purchased equipment on April 1 for $38,880. The equipment was expected to have a useful life of three years, or 5

,400 operating hours, and a residual value of $1,080. The equipment was used for 1,000 hours during Year 1, 1,900 hours in Year 2, 1,600 hours in Year 3, and 900 hours in Year 4.
Required:

Determine the amount of depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, Year 1, Year 2, Year 3, and Year 4, by (a) the straight-line method, (b) units-of-activity method, and (c) the double-declining-balance method.

Answer:

See explanation section.

Explanation:

Requirement 1

We know,

Depreciation expense under the straight-line method = (Cost price - residual value) ÷ useful life

The depreciation expense under the straight-line method remains same in every year.

December 31, Year 1 - depreciation expense = ($38,880 - $1,080) ÷ 3 years.

Depreciation expense = ($37,800 ÷ 3)

Depreciation expense = $12,600

Depreciation expense for year 1 = $12,600 × 9 ÷ 12

Depreciation expense for year 1 = $9,450

Requirement 2

The depreciation expense under the straight-line method remains the same every year.

Year 2 depreciation expense = ($38,880 - $1,080) ÷ 3 years = $12,600

Year 3 depreciation expense = ($38,880 - $1,080) ÷ 3 years = $12,600

Year 4 depreciation expense = ($38,880 - $1,080) ÷ 3 years = $12,600

The equipment will be dissolved after 4 year with a residual value of $1,080.

Requirement 3

The depreciation expense under units-of-activity method = [(Cost price - residual value) ÷ Total operating hours] × usage during the period.

Given,

Cost price = $38,880

residual value = $1,080

Total operating hours =  5,400

Putting the values into the formula, we can get

Depreciation expense rate = ($38,880 - $1,080) ÷  5,400

Depreciation expense rate = $37,800 ÷ 5,400

Depreciation expense rate = $7 per hour.

Depreciation expense for year 1 = $7 per hour × 1,000

Depreciation expense for year 1 = $7,000

Requirement 4

We get from requirement 3

Depreciation expense rate = $7 per hour.

Year 2 Depreciation expense = $7 per hour.

Depreciation expense for year 2 = $7 per hour × 1,900 hour.

Depreciation expense for year 2 = $13,300 hour.

Year 3 Depreciation expense = $7 per hour.

Depreciation expense year 3 = $7 per hour ×  1,600 hour.

Depreciation expense year 3 = $11,200 hour.

Year 4 Depreciation expense = $7 per hour.

Depreciation expense year 4 = $7 per hour ×  900 hour.

Depreciation expense year 4 = $6,300 hour.

Requirement 5

Depreciation rate under the double-declining-balance method = (100% ÷ useful life) ÷ 2

Depreciation rate = (100% ÷ 3 years) × 2

Depreciation rate = 66.67%

Depreciation expense for year 1 = cost price × depreciation rate

Given,

cost price = $38,880

depreciation rate = 66.67%

Putting the values into the formula, we can get

Depreciation expense for year 1 = cost price × depreciation rate

Depreciation expense for year 1 = $38,880 × 66.67%

Depreciation expense for year 1 = $25,921

Requirement 6

In double-declining-balance method, depreciation expense is decreasing.

Book value of year 1 after depreciation = Cost price - year 1 depreciation expense =  $38,880 - $25,921 = $12,959

Depreciation expense for year 2 = Book value of year 1 × depreciation rate.

Depreciation expense for year 2 = ($12,959 × 66.67%) = $8,640

Book value of year 2 after depreciation = Book value of year 1 - Depreciation expense for year 2 = $12,959 - $8,640 = $4,319

Depreciation expense for year 3 = Book value of year 2 × depreciation rate.

Depreciation expense for year 3 = $4,319 × 66.67% = $2,879.50

Book value of year 3 after depreciation = Book value of year 2 - Depreciation expense for year 3 = $4,319 - $2,879.50 = $1,439.5

Depreciation expense for year 4 = Book value of year 3 × depreciation rate.

Depreciation expense for year 4 = $1,439.5 × 66.67% = $960

The Widget Co. purchased all of its fixed assets three years ago for $6 million. These assets can be sold today for $3 million.
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

$4,800,000

Explanation:

Widget corporation purchased all of its fixed assets three years ago for $6 million

These assets can be sold today for $3 million

The company receives $1.8 million in cash after liquidation of current assets

Therefore the market value of the company's total assets today can be calculated as follows

Market value = $3,000,000 + $1,800,000

= $4,800,000

Hnence the company's market value for today is $4,800,000

The Seattle Corporation has an investment opportunity that will yield cash flows of $30,000 per year in Years 1 through 4, $35,0
zlopas [31]

Answer:

4.86 years

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Cash flow each year from year 1 to year 4 = $30,000

Cash flow in year 5 through 9 = $35,000

Cash flow in year 10 = $40,000

Initial investment = $150,000

Firm's WACC = 10%

Now,

Accumulated cash flow for 4 years = $30,000 × 4 = $120,000

Accumulated Cash flow for 5 years = $120,000 + $35,000

= $155,000 > amount invested ($150,000)

Thus,

Remaining payback amount required in year 5 = $150,000 - $120,000

= $30,000

Payback period for $30,000 in year 5 = [$30,000 ÷ Annual cash flow]

= $30,000 ÷ $35,000

= 0.86 years

Hence,

Total payback period for this investment is

= 4 years + 0.86 years

= 4.86 years

6. Twins Barbara and Mary are both age 27. Beginning at age 27, Barbara invests $2,000 per year for 10 years and then never sets
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Barbara will have $210,349

Mary will have $188,922

Explanation:

Total time of investment is 40 years = age 67 - age 27

After 10 years, Barbara will have  $27,633 (this figure used "FV" calculation in excel = FV(7%,10,2000)

Then Barbara put all $27,633 in next 30 years then she will have $210,349 = 27,633 x (1+7%)^30

Mary didn't now invest in first 10 years, but then  invests $2,000 per year for the next 30 years, so she will have $188,922 = FV(7%,30,2000)
