PR 10-2A Comparing three depreciation methods Dexter Industries purchased packaging equipment on January 8 for $72,000. The equip- ment was expected to have a useful life of three years, or 18,000 operating hours, and a residual value of $4,500. The equipment was used for 7,600 hours during Year 1, 6,000 hours in Year 2, and 4,400 hours in Year 3. OBJ. 2 Instructions 1. Determine the amount of depreciation expense for the three years ending December 31 by (a) the straight-line method, (b) the units-of-activity method, and (c) the double- declining-balance method. Also determine the total depreciation expense for the three years by each method. The following columnar headings are suggested for recording the depreciation expense amounts: Depreciation Expense Double-Declining- Straight- Line Units-of- Activity Method Balance Year Method Method 2. What method yields the highest depreciation expense for Year 1? 3. What method yields the most depreciation over the three-year life of the equipment?

only answer d now please
How would I calculate this problem? I just guessed on which answer made sense to me. Please help. thank you in advance.
PLEASE, WRITE THE SOLUTIONS ON PAPER, EXPLAINING THE ENTIRE PROCESS, THE ONLY AND CORRECT ANSWERS ARE FOR (i) V(t) = exp (-2e^0.02t + 2 ) for 0 15 (i) Derive, and simplify as far as possible, expressions in terms of t for V(t), where V(t) is the present value of a unit sum of cash flow made at time t. You should derive separate expressions for the three sub-intervals. (ii) Hence, making use of the result in part (i), calculate the value at time t = 3 of a payment of £2,500 made at time t = 15. (iii) Calculate, to the nearest 0.01%, the constant nominal annual rate of interest convertible half-yearly implied by the transaction in part (ii). (iv) Making use of the result in part (i), calculate the present value of a payment stream p(t) paid continuously from time t = 15 to t = 20 at a rate of payment at time t given by: p(t) = 300e 0.02t
please answer this which is part C
