Question
![### Depreciation Calculation for Equipment
**Scenario:**
Equipment purchased at the beginning of the fiscal year for $360,000 is expected to have a useful life of five years, or 14,000 operating hours, and a residual value of $10,000.
**Objective:**
Compute the depreciation for the first and second years of use by each of the following methods:
#### a. Straight-line Method:
- **First year**: $\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_
- **Second year**: $\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_
#### b. Units-of-activity Method (1,200 hours first year; 2,250 hours second year):
- **First year**: $\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_
- **Second year**: $\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_
#### c. Double-declining-balance Method:
- **First year**: $\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_
- **Second year**: $\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_
**Instructions:**
1. **Straight-line Method:**
- Calculate annual depreciation expense by dividing the depreciable amount (cost - residual value) by the useful life of the equipment.
2. **Units-of-activity Method:**
- Calculate the depreciation expense per hour by dividing the depreciable amount by the total expected operating hours.
- Multiply this rate by the actual hours used to find the annual depreciation expense for each year.
3. **Double-declining-balance Method:**
- Calculate the depreciation rate by doubling the straight-line depreciation rate (2 / useful life).
- Multiply this rate by the book value of the equipment at the beginning of each year.
**Notes:**
- This worksheet facilitates calculations for financial accounting and tax purposes.
- Be sure to fill in the required calculations in the provided blank spaces for each method specified.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fe513d118-47da-4d2c-9045-463c8cef289a%2F1ea391fa-8dcf-49dc-95f0-ef5645540061%2Fzvi6uhf_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
