A company is evaluating a new 4-year project. The equipment necessary for the project will cost $3,500,000 and can be sold for $

715,000 at the end of the project. The asset is in the 5-year MACRS class. The depreciation percentage each year is 20.00 percent, 32.00 percent, 19.20 percent, 11.52 percent, and 11.52 percent, respectively. The company's tax rate is 34 percent. What is the aftertax salvage value of the equipment?
Hint: 1. Find the remaining book value at the end. 2. Subtract this from the expected sale price to find the gain on sale. 3. Apply the tax rate to this gain to find the taxes owed. 4. The after-tax salvage value is the sale price minus the taxes.
a) $715,000.
b) $752,468.
c) $540,444.
d) $677,532.

Answer:

d) $677,532.

Explanation:

1.

Written down value of the equipment after 4 years = Cost x ( 100% - 1st year MACRS - Second-year MACRS - Third-year MACRS - Fourth-year MACRS ) = $3,500,000 x ( 100% - 20% - 32% - 19.20% - 11.52% ) = $604,800

2.

Now calculate the gain on the sale of equipment

Gain on the sale of equipment = Sale Price - Written down Value after 4 years = $715,000 - $604,800 = $110,200

3.

Tax owed = Gain on the sale x Tax rate = $110,200 x 34% = $37,468

After-tax salvage value = Sales price - Tax = $715,000 - $37,468 = $677,532

On January 1, 2021, the Allegheny Corporation purchased equipment for $115,000. The estimated service life of the equipment is 1
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

1. $11,000 each year

2. $23,000 and $18,400

3. $15,000 and $12,500

Explanation:

The calculation of the depreciation expense for the 2021 and 2022 is shown below:

1. Straight-line method:

= (Purchase value of equipment - estimated residual value) ÷ (estimated service life)

= ($115,000 - $5,000) ÷ (10 years)

= ($110,000) ÷ (10 years)  

= $11,000

In this method, the depreciation is same for all the remaining useful life  i.e for 2021 also the same depreciation is applied i.e $11,000

2. Double-declining balance method:

First we have to determine the depreciation rate which is

= One ÷ estimated service life

= 1 ÷ 10

= 10%

Now the rate is double So, 20%

In year 1, the original cost is $115,000, so the depreciation is $23,000 after applying the 20% depreciation rate

And, in year 2, the $(115,000 - $23,000) × 20% = $18,400

3. Units-of-production method:

= (Purchase value of equipment - estimated residual value) ÷ (estimated production units)

= ($115,000 - $5,000) ÷ ($220,000 units)

= ($110,000) ÷ (220,000 units)  

= $0.5 per units

For 2021, it would be

= Production units in 2021 year × depreciation per unit

= 30,000 units × $0.5

= $15,000

Now for the 2022, it would be  

= Production units in 2022 year × depreciation per unit

= 25,000 units × $0.5

= $12,500
