On January 1, 2017, Crane SA purchased the following two machines for use in its production process.
Machine A: The cash price of this machine was €59,200. Related expenditures included: sales tax €3,900, shipping costs €300, insurance during shipping €60, installation and testing costs €1,400, and €120 of oil and lubricants to be used with the machinery during its first year of operations. Crane estimates that the useful life of the machine is 4 years with a €5,100 residual value remaining at the end of that time period.
Machine B: The recorded cost of this machine was €157,300. Crane estimates that the useful life of the machine is 5 years with a €12,100 residual value remaining at the end of that time period.
Question 1: Calculate the amount of depreciation expense that Crane should record for Machine B each year of its useful life under the following assumption. (Round answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 2,125. Round cost per unit to 2 decimal place, e.g. 1.25.)
(1) Crane uses the straight-line method of depreciation.
(2) Crane uses the declining-balance method. The rate used is twice the straightline rate.(3)Crane uses the units-of-activity method and estimates that the useful life of the machine is 24,200 units. Actual usage is as follows: 2017, 4,500 units; 2018, 8,100 units; 2019, 6,600 units; 2020, 3,000 units and 2021, 2,000 units.
