DDBM: A construction company decided to purchase a concrete mixer truck for $75,000 with a trade-in of their old mixer. The old mixer has a trade-in value of $7,000. The new mixer will be kept for 15 years before being sold. Its estimated salvage value at that time is expected to be $5,000. Assume interest to be 12%. Determine the 9th year BVB by Double Declining Balance Method (round-off k to 4 decimal places). if possible please try solving using these as well with an interest of 10%, 11%, and 12%. show the whole table using 15 years. 1.Sum of Years Digit Method (round-off k to 4 decimal places) 2.Straight Line Method (round-off k to 4 decimal places)
Depreciation Methods
The word "depreciation" is defined as an accounting method wherein the cost of tangible assets is spread over its useful life and it usually denotes how much of the assets value has been used up. The depreciation is usually considered as an operating expense. The main reason behind depreciation includes wear and tear of the assets, obsolescence etc.
