A global positioning system (GPS) receiver is purchased for $3,000. The IRS informs your company that the useful (class) life of the system is seven years. The expected market (salvage) value is $200 at the end of year seven. Solve, a. Use the straight-line method to calculate depreciation in year three. b. Use the 200% declining balance method to calculate the cumulative depreciation through year four.c. Use the MACRS method to calculate the cumulative depreciation through year five. d. What is the book value of the GPS receiver at the end of year four when straight-line depreciation is used?

- Montezuma Inc. purchases a delivery truck for $15,000. The truck has a salvage value of $3,000 and is expected to be driven for eight years. Montezuma uses the straight-line depreciation method. Calculate the annual depreciation expense. After three years of recording depreciation, Montezuma determines that the delivery truck will only be useful for another three years and that the salvage value will increase to $4,000. Determine the depreciation expense for the final three years of the assets life, and create the journal entry for year four.arrow_forwardMontezuma Inc. purchases a delivery truck for $20,000. The truck has a salvage value of $8,000 and is expected to be driven for ten years. Montezuma uses the straight-line depreciation method. Calculate the annual depreciation expense. After five years of recording depreciation, Montezuma determines that the delivery truck will be useful for another five years (ten years in total, as originally expected) and that the salvage value will increase to $10,000. Determine the depreciation expense for the final five years of the assets life, and create the journal entry for years 6–10 (the entry will be the same for each of the five years).arrow_forwardMontello Inc. purchases a delivery truck for $25,000.
