Or
= (Cost – Residual Value) x SL Rate
SL Rate (as a %) = 100/n, where n = years of useful life
E.g. if n =5; SL Rate = 100/5 = 20%
Depreciation charge is higher in earlier years
and becomes lower in later years
Denominator - The sum of the remaining life in years during the life of the asset.
E.g. if an asset is 5 years. This is calculated by adding the remaining life each year
(5+4+3+2+1)= 15
Depreciation charge=
Net Book Value x Depreciation rate
Instructions:
From the information given, compute the depreciation charge for
year to April 30, 2018 under each of the following methods. (Round
to the nearest dollar.)
a) Straight-line
b) Units-of-output
c) Sum-of-the-years’-digits
d) Double-declining-balance
a)Straight-line = (original cost-residual value)/estimated
useful life
= ($300,000-$20,000)/10 years
= $280,000/10
= $28,000
Denominator
= 10+9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1
= 55
Numerator in 2018 = 10
Formula = $280,000 * 10/55
= $50,909
d)
Double Declining Balance Method
= Original cost * double declining rate
Dep’n = $300,000*20%
= $55,800
Instructions:
From the information given, compute the depreciation charge for
2017 and 2018 under each of the following methods. (Round to the
nearest dollar.)
a) Straight-line
b) Units-of-output
c) Sum-of-the-years’-digits
d) Double-declining-balance
A long-lived tangible asset is impaired when a
company is not able to recover carrying amount of
the asset either by using or selling it.

Recoverable Cost (300,000)
Impairment loss 200,000
NB
Recoverable cost = value in use of $300,000 because it is
greater than the fair value less cost of disposal of $270,000
b) It should be reported in the other income and expense section in
the income statement.

Depletion Base:
$1,000,000 + $90,000 – $280,000 + $200,000
= $1,010,000
b)
Depletion cost for 2018. Prepare the necessary journal
entry.
Units Removed = 30,000 tons
Depletion cost = 30,000 x $16.83
= $504,900
Journal Entry:
Inventory $504,900
Accumulated Depletion $504,900
c)
Total Material cost inventory at December 31, 2018:
Removed Sold
Inventory = 30,000 tons – 24,000 tons
= 6,000 tons
Journal Entry:
Cost of Goods Sold $403,920
Inventory $403,920
