Answer to Part a.

Straight Line Depreciation per year = (Cost - Salvage Value)/ Useful Life

Straight Line Depreciation per year = (1,250,000 - 32,000)/ 5

Straight Line Depreciation per year = $243,600

Straight Line Depreciation for Year 2017 = $243,600 * 6/12

Straight Line Depreciation for Year 2017 = $121,800

Answer to Part b.

Activity Rate Depreciation = (Cost - Salvage Value)/ Estimated Production

Depreciation per unit produced= (1,250,000 -32,000)/ 496,000

Depreciation per unit produced = $2.46

Depreciation Expense for the year 2017 = $2.46 * 52,000

Depreciation Expense for the Year 2017 = $127,920

Answer to Part c.

Depreciation expense per hour = (1,250,000 - 32,000)/ 62,000

Depreciation Expense per hour = $19.65

Depreciation Expense for the Year 2017 = $19.65 * 6,000

Depreciation Expense for the Year 2017 = $117,900

Answer to Part d.

Depreciation for the year 2017 = (1,250,000 - 32,000) * 5/15 * 6/12

Depreciation Expense for the year 2017 = $203,000
