Solution
Straight line method of depreciation:
[Cost of the asset – salvage value]/Number of useful life
[$633,000 - $43000]/4 = $147,500
Sum of years digit method:
Depreciation:
[$633000-$43000]*4/12 = $590000*4/10 = $236,000
Double declining method:
Depreciation rate = 100/4 = 25%
Double declining rate = 2*25% = 50%
Book value at the beginning of 2019 =$633,000
Depreciation for the year 2019 = $633,000*50% = 316,500
If the double declining balance method is used to compute depreciation, what would be the book value of asset at the end of 2020?
Depreciation rate = 100/4 = 25%
Double declining rate = 2*25% = 50%
Book value at the beginning of 2019 =$633,000
Depreciation for the year 2019 = $633,000*50% = 316,500
Depreciation for the year 2020 = $316,500*50% = $158,250
Book Value at the end of 2020 = $316500-$158250 = $158250
