Answer 1

	CALCULATION OF THE DEPRECIATION AS PER UNIT OF PRODUCTION METHOD
	Purchase Cost =	$                14,00,000
	Less: Salvage Value =	$                  1,00,500
	Net Value for Depreciation =	$                12,99,500
	Expected to unit of output=	1,60,000
	Depreciation per Unit =	$                          8.12
	($ 1,299,500 / 160,000 Unit)
	CALCULATION OF THE DEPRECIATION
Years	Units of Activity / Miles	X Depreciation Cost/Unit	Depreciation
2016	41,000	$                          8.12	$                     3,32,997
2017	48,000	$                          8.12	$                     3,89,850
2018	26,000	$                          8.12	$                     2,11,169
	Answer =	Amount
