life. The machine cost $1,800,000 cash and it is estimated to have a $60,000 salvage value.
1. Calculate the depreciation if the machine produces 70,000 units of product during its first
year, using the units-of-production method.
2. Calculate the depreciation on the machine using the double-declining-balance method.
3. Calculate the depreciation on the machine using the straight-line method.

183. A company purchased an equipment system for $325,000 on January 2. The company
expects the equipment to last for eight years or 60,000 hours of operation, with an estimated
salvage value of $25,000. During the first year, the equipment was in operation for 8,000
hours, while in the second year, the equipment was in operation for 8,700 hours. Compute the
depreciation expense relating to the equipment for Year 1 and Year 2 using the following
depreciation methods:
a. Straight-line.
b. Double-declining-balance.
c. Units-of-production.
184. On January 1, a machine costing $260,000 with a 4-year life and an estimated $5,000
salvage value was purchased. It was also estimated that the machine would produce 500,000
units during its life. The actual units produced during its first year of operation were 110,000.
Determine the amount of depreciation expense for the first year under each of the following
assumptions:
1. The company uses the straight-line method of depreciation.
2. The company uses the units-of-production method of depreciation.
3. The company uses the double-declining-balance method of depreciation.
185. A company purchased a computer system on January 1, Year 1, for $1,600,000. Prepare

effect of the expenditure was to increase the productivity of the machine without increasing
its remaining useful life or changing its salvage value. Straight-line depreciation is used
throughout the machine's life.
