The equipment cost $4,250,000, and the organization spent $135,000 on upgrading the physical plant the new equipment will be located in. The equipment is expected to have a 10-year useful life and a salvage value of 10% (i.e., $425,000). Calculate the first 5 years of depreciation, using SL, DDB, the deferred repay an attempt to s used up over a with the revenues over s their useful and SYD A new medical practice purchases computer equipment that cost $15,000, to be used for medical billing. In addi- tion, the practice purchases billing software that cost $5,000. Both the computer equipment and the software are expected to have 3-year useful lives and no salvage value.

 (D). Depreciation Caluculation:
    Stright Line Depreciation:   
    = 42,50,000 + 1,35,000 - 4,25,000 / 10 Years
    = 39,60,000 / 10 Years
    = 3,96,000
    Asset Value 42,50,000
 Less: 1 Year Depre 3,96,000
    Balance = 38,54,000
    Less: 2nd Year Depreci 3,96,000
    Balance = 34,58,000
    Less: 3rd Year Depreci 3,96,000
 Balance = 30,62,000
    Less: 4th Year Depreci 3,96,000
    Balance = 26,66,000
    Less: 5 th Year Depreci 3,96,000
 Balance = 18,70,000

 Stright Line Depreciation:   
    =15,000 + 5,000 - 0 / 3 Years
    = 20,000 / 3 Years

 2). Double Declining Balance Method:
 Sum_of the Years-Digits Method:
 Depreciation =   
 Sum-of the Years Value:
 
 Sum-of the Years Value = 3( 3+1)2
    = 6
 Depreciable Base =$ 20000
 Depreciation = 20,000 * 3 Yeasr / 6
    = 10000
 Dep for year 2 = $ 6667
 Dep for year 3 = $ 3333
