193. Determine the depreciation, for the year of acquisition and for the following year of a fixed asset acquired on
October 1 for $500,000, with an estimated life of 5 years, and residual value of $50,000, using (a) the double declining-
balance method and (b) the straight-line method. Assume a fiscal year ending December 31.
Year of acquisition: $50,000 ($500,000 × 0.40 × 3/12)
Following year: $180,000 ($500,000 – $50,000 × 0.40)
Year of acquisition: $22,500 [($500,000 – $50,000 / 5) × 3/12]
Following year: $90,000 [($500,000 – $50,000) / 5]

194. Equipment costing $80,000 with a useful life of 10 years and a residual value of $8,000 has been depreciated for 6
years by the straight-line method. Assume a fiscal year ending December 31.
What is the book value at the end of the sixth year of use?
If early in the seventh year it is estimated that the remaining useful life is 5 years
(instead of 4) and the residual value is $6,000, what is the amount of depreciation for
the seventh year?
($80,000 – $8,000) = $72,000
$72,000 / 10 = $7,200
$7,200 × 6 = $43,200
$80,000 – $43,200 = $36,800
