In August 2024, Carla Vista Helicopters Ltd. purchased a new helicopter for its logging and heavy lift operations at a cost of $1.05 million. Based on past experience, management has determined that the helicopter will have a useful life of 18,000 flying hours, at which time it will have an estimated residual value of $150,000. During 2024, the helicopter was used for 1,800 flying hours, and in 2025 it was used for 2,000 flying hours. Carla Vista Helicopters has a December 31 year end and uses the units-of-production method of depreciation for its helicopters. Determine the depreciation expense on this helicopter for 2025 and its carrying amount at December 31, 2025. Depreciation expense $ Carrying amount $ 2025
On April 30, 2020, Flounder Corporation ordered a new passenger ship, which was delivered to the designated cruise port and available for use as of June 30, 2020. Overall, the cost of the ship was $93 million, with an estimated useful life of 12 years and residual value of $30 million. Flounder expects that the new ship, as a whole, will provide its greatest economic benefits in its early years of operation. After further research and discussion with management, it is determined that the ship consists of major parts with differing useful lives, residual values, and patterns of providing economic benefits: Part Cost Useful life Residual value Pattern ofbenefits Total output(nautical miles) Engines (6) $975,000 per engine 8 years $100,000 per engine Varies with activity 7 million Hull $3,900,000 10 years $503,000 Highest in early years 7.90 million Body $83.25 million 15 years $15.21 million Evenly over life of body 12.30…

The Campbell Company is evaluating the proposed acquisition of a new milling machine. The machine’s base price is $108,000, and it would cost another $12, 500 to modify it for special use by your firm. The machine will be sold after three years for $65,000. The applicable depreciation rates are 33 percent, 45 percent, 15 percent, and 7 percent. The machine would require an increase in net operating working capital (inventory) of $5,500. The machine would have no effect on revenues, but is expected to save the firm $44,000 per year in before tax operating costs, mainly labor. Campbell’s marginal tax rate is 35 percent.
