A new machine costs $120,000, has an estimated useful life of five years and an estimated salvage value of $15,000 at the end of that time. It is expected that the machine can produce 210,000 widgets during its useful life.

The New Times Company purchases this machine on January 1, 2017, and uses it for exactly three years. During these years the annual production of widgets has been 80,000, 50,000, and 30,000 units, respectively. On January 1, 2020, the machine is sold for $45,000.

Required:

Straight-line
Units-of-production
Double-declining-balance

2. Prepare the proper journal entry for the sale of the machine under the three different depreciation methods.

Expert Solution

Calculate depreciation expense :

Depreciation rate = (120000-15000)/210000 = 0.50 per unit

	2017	2018	2019
Straight line	(120000-15000/5) = 21000	21000	21000
Units of production	0.50*80000 = $40000	0.5*50000 = 25000	0.50*30000 = 15000
Double declining balance	120000*40% = 48000	12000060%40% = 28800	12000060%60%*40% = 17280
