Depreciation by Three Methods; Partial Years
Perdue Company purchased equipment on April 1 for $64,260. The equipment was expected to have a useful life of three years, or 5,940 operating hours, and a residual value of $1,890. The equipment was used for 1,100 hours during Year 1, 2,100 hours in Year 2, 1,800 hours in Year 3, and 940 hours in Year 4.
Required:
Determine the amount of depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, Year 1, Year 2, Year 3, and Year 4, by (a) the straight-line method, (b) units-of-activity method, and (c) the double-declining-balance method.
Note: FOR DECLINING BALANCE ONLY, round the multiplier to four decimal places. Then round the answer for each year to the nearest whole dollar.
a. Straight-line method
| Year | Amount |
| Year 1 | $ |
| Year 2 | $ |
| Year 3 | $ |
| Year 4 | $ |
b. Units-of-activity method
| Year | Amount |
| Year 1 | $ |
| Year 2 | $ |
| Year 3 | $ |
| Year 4 | $ |
c. Double-declining-balance method
| Year | Amount |
| Year 1 | $ |
| Year 2 | $ |
| Year 3 | $ |
| Year 4 | $ |
Feedback
a. Asset cost minus residual value equals depreciable cost. Sum the yearly depreciation to determine total depreciation.
b. Annual units-of-activity depreciation allocates the cost of the asset equally over the units produced (hours).
c. The double-declining rate is two times the straight-line rate. Book value is the asset cost minus accumulated depreciation.
Compare the total depreciation for all methods over the time period. Recall that straight-line depreciation allocates the depreciable cost of the asset equally over the period of use, while double-declining method is an accelerated method.

1. In this assignment, you will use MARS(MIPS Assembler and Runtime Simulator) to write and run a program that reads in a string of ASCII characters and converts them to Integer numbers stored in an array.
There are two different ways to convert the number into ASCII, subtraction and “masking”.
If your student ID ends in an odd number, then use subtraction.
If your student ID ends in an even number, then use masking.
Write a program that:
1.Inputs a 1x8vector of single-digit integers
2.Storestheminto an 8-entry 32-bit Integer array, “V”.
It is not completely trivial to do this given the Syscalls available and the desired input format.
Hint: Use Read String and not Read Integer, then convert from ASCII to integer before storing into the integer array, “V”. Use the ASCII table in the book to determine how to convert from ASCII to integer (there are two ways, both very easy, select the method as per the introduction).
After storing the integers in the array:
1.Read the same values using Read Integer and store them in a 32-bit integer array, “VPrime”.
2.Subtract the two arrays integer by integer and put the results into a third 32-bit integer array, “VCheck”.
3.Sum all the values in VCheck and using Write Integer, display the result.
When you run the program, the input should look something like this with a space between numbers:
Input V: 1 4 0 2 7 3 8 4 (this is just an example vector; it can be any string of single digit integers)
Input VPrime:
1
4
0
2
7
3
8
4
(Where the integers: 0 1 2 3 4 ... 8 9 or whatever vector values the user wants to input are input by the user on the “console.”)
And the output will look like:
Check Result: 0
