Cullumber Arrow Ltd. purchased a new bus on October 1, 2024, at a total cost of $159,585. Management is considering the merits of
using the diminishing-balance or units-of-production methods of depreciation instead of the straight-line method, which it currently
uses for its other buses. The new bus has an estimated residual value of $16,000, and an estimated useful life of either four years or
305,500 km. Use of the bus will be sporadic so it could be much higher in some years than in others. Assume the new bus is driven as
follows: 7,900 km in 2024; 100,400 km in 2025; 64,500 km in 2026: 95,700 km in 2027; and 37,000 km in 2028, Cullumber Arrow has
a October 31 year end.
