Best Company acquired a machine on January 1, 2018, that cost $40,000 and had an estimated residual value of $4,000. Complete the following schedule (for 2018) using the three methods of depreciation:

Depreciation expense is the amount a company's assets are depreciated for single period.
Whereas Accumulated depreciation is the total amount a company depreciates its assets.
Accumulated Depreciation = Depreciation Expense of Asset x Number of years
So, in 1st year Depreciation expenses = Accumalated depreciation.
Solution : --
Cost of Machine acquired on 1Jan 2018 = $40000
Residual value of Machine = $4000
a) Straight Line method
Depreciation Expense = (Fixed Assets's Cost - Residual Value) / useful life
Depreciation = (40000 - 4000) / 5 = $7200
Depreciation expense 2018 = $7200
Accumalated Depreciation 2018 = $7200
b) Units Produced
Total Units produced in life in Machine = 8000units
Units produced in 2018 = 2000units
Depreciation expense = per unit Depreciation x total number of units produced in the year
where, per unit Depreciation = Assets's cost / total units produced by machine in its life
Depreciation = (40000/ 8000) x 2000 = 10000
Depreciation expense 2018 = $10000
Accumalated Depreciation 2018 = $10000
c) Depreciation by Declining balance at 150% acceleration = 150% x Strainght line depreciation percentage x book value of asset
where, straight line percentage = 1/ useful life of asset
= 1/5 = 20%
Depreciation Rate at 150% acceleration = 150% x 20% = 1.5 x 20% == 30%
Depreciation = 40000 x 30% = $12000
Depreciation expense 2018 = $12000
Accumalated Depreciation 2018 = $12000
200 DB Method
Depreciation by Declining balance at 200% acceleration = 200% x Strainght line depreciation percentage x book value of asset
where, straight line percentage = 1/ useful life of asset x 100
= 1/5 x 100 = 20%
Depreciation Rate at 200% acceleration = 200% x 20% = 2 x 20% == 40%
Depreciation = 40000 x 40% = $16000
Depreciation expense 2018 = $16000
Accumalated Depreciation 2018 = $16000
