Depreciation Methods
Gruman Company purchased a machine for $220,000 on January 2, 2016. It made the following estimates:
In 2016, Gruman uses the machine for 1,800 hours and produces 44,000 units. In 2017, Gruman uses the machine for 1,500 hours and produces 35,000 units. If required, round your final answers to the nearest dollar.
Required:
Compute the depreciation for 2016 and 2017 under each of the following methods:
Straight-line method
Sum-of-the-years\'-digits method
Double-declining-balance method
Activity method based on hours worked
Activity method based on units of output
For each method, what is the book value of the machine at the end of 2016? At the end of 2017?
Straight-line method
Sum-of-the-years\'-digits method
Double-declining-balance method
Activity method based on hours worked
Activity method based on units of output
If Gruman used a service life of 8 years or 15,000 hours and a residual value of $10,000, what would be the effect on the following under the straight-line, sum-of-the-years\'-digits, and double-declining-balance depreciation methods?
Depreciation expense
Straight-line method
Sum-of-the-years\'-digits method
Double-declining-balance method
Book value
Straight-line method
Sum-of-the-years\'-digits method
Double-declining-balance method
| Service life | 5 years or 10,000 hours |
| Production | 200,000 units |
| Residual value | $20,000 |
Solution
Answer 1. Straight Line Method Depreciation expense per annum = (Cost - Salvage Value) / Life of Assets Depreciation expense per annum = ($220,000 - $20,000)/ 5 Years Depreciation expense per annum = $200,000 / 5 Years = $40,000 per annum Depreciation Expense: 2016 40,000.00 2017 40,000.00 Sum-of-the-years-digits Method SYD for 5 Years = n(n+1)/2 = 5 (5+1)/2 = 15 Depreciation Expense: 2016 = 5/15 X ($220,000 - $20,000) = $66,666.67 or say $66,667 (Approx.) 2017 = 4/15 X ($220,000 - $20,000) = $53,333.33 or say $53,333 (Approx.) Double Declining Balance Method Rate of Dep. Under DDBM = 2 X 20% (Rate of Dep. Under Straight Line Method) Rate of Dep. Under DDBM = 40% Depreciation Expense: 2016 = $220,000 X 40% = $88,000 2017 = ($220,000 - $88,000) X 40% = $52,800 Activity method based on hours worked Depreciation Rate per Hour = ($220,000 - $20,000) / 10,000 Hrs Depreciation Rate per Hour = $20 per hour Depreciation Expense: 2016 = 1,800 Hrs X $20 = $36,000 2017 = 1,500 Hrs X $20 = $30,000 Activity method based on units of output Depreciation Rate per Unit = ($220,000 - $20,000) / 200,000 Units Depreciation Rate per Unit = $1 per Unit 2016 = 44,000 Units X $1 = $44,000 2017 = 35,000 Units X $1 = $35,000 Answer 2.

Straight Line Method Depreciation expense per annum = (Cost - Salvage Value) / Life of Assets Depreciation expense per annum = ($220,000 - $10,000)/ 8 Years Depreciation expense per annum = $210,000 / 5 Years = $26,250 per annum Depreciation Expense: 2016 26,250.00 2017 26,250.00 Sum-of-the-years-digits Method SYD for 8 Years = n(n+1)/2 = 8 (8+1)/2 = 36 Depreciation Expense: 2016 = 8/36 X ($220,000 - $10,000) = $46,666.67 or say $46,667 (Approx.) 2017 = 7/36 X ($220,000 - $10,000) = $40,833.33 or say $40,833 (Approx.) Double Declining Balance Method Rate of Dep. Under DDBM = 2 X 12.50% (Rate of Dep. Under Straight Line Method) Rate of Dep. Under DDBM = 25% Depreciation Expense: 2016 = $220,000 X 25% = $55,000 2017 = ($220,000 - $55,000) X 25% = $41,250 Answer 4.
