Answer 1 : $0.

Explanation : Under IFRS or US GAAP goodwill is never amortized. However it is valued every year to determine any impairment loss.

Answer 2. $248,000

Explanation :

Accumulated Depreciation for 2016 & 2017 : [ ($657,000 - $13,000) / 8 years ] * 2 years = $161,000

Book value of the equipment in 2018 = $657,000 - $161,000 = $496,000

Revised total useful life = 4 years

Remaining useful life = 4 - 2 (ie 2016 & 2017) = 2 years

Revised residual value = $0.

Depreciation for the year 2018 = [($496,000 - $0) / 2 years] = $248,000     

Answer 3 . $28,080

Explanation :

SLM rate = 1 / Useful life = 1 / 5 years = 20 %

Dep under double-declining balance method = 2 * SLM rate * Book value at the beginning of the year

Dep for 2018 = 2 * 20 % * $78,000 = $31,200

Book value at the beginning of the year for 2019 =  $78,000 - $31,200 = $46,800

Dep for 2019 = 2 * 20 % * $46,800 = $18,720

Book value at the end of the year for 2019 =  $46,800 - $18,720 = $28,080.

Answer 4. $88,500

Explanation :

Depletion in 2018 = ($174,300 / 21,000 tons) * 5,000 tons = $41,500

Depletion in 2019 = [ ($174,300 - $41,500 ) / 15,000 tons) * 10,000 tons = $88,500
