Cainas Cookies purchased a commercial oven on 1/1/14 for a total cost of 35,000. Estimated useful life is 6 years, with a salvage value of 5,000 at the end of that time. Cainas estimates that the equipment will be used for 12,000 baking hours. For the first year of operations, Cainas had 2,500 backing hours. For the second year Cainas had 1,700 hours. Compute the depreciation for YEAR 2. Group of answer choices

Answer:

Units of production = $4250

Straight line depreciation expense = $5,000

Double declining method = $7.777

Explanation:

The depreciation method to he used wasn't stated, so I calculated the depreciation expense using 3 depreciation methods

Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

(35,000 - 5,000) / 6 = $5,000

The depreciation expense each year would be $5000

Depreciation expense using the double declining method = Depreciation factor x cost of the asset

Depreciation factor = 2 x (1/useful life)

2 / 6 = 0.3333

Deprecation expense in year 1 = 0.3333 x $35,000 = $11,666.67

Book value = $35,000 - $11,666.67 = $23,333.33

Depreciation expense in year 2 = $23,333.33 × 0.3333 = $7.777

Depreciation expense using units of production = ( hours used in year / total estimated hours of the machine) x (Cost of asset - Salvage value)

(1,700 / 12,000) x (35,000 - 5,000) = $4250

I hope my answer helps you

The Cainas Cookies' depreciation expense for year 2 is C. $4,250.

The correct choice of answer is not A. $7,292 , B. $6,250 , or D. $4,598.

Data and Calculations:

Cost of commercial oven = $35,000

Salvage value = $5,000

Depreciable amount = $30,000 ($35,000 - $5,000)

Estimated useful life = 12,000 baking hours

Depreciation rate per baking hour = $2.50 ($30,000/12,000)

Depreciation expense for Year 2 = $4,250 ($2.50 x 1,700)

Thus, the depreciation expense for year 2 is $4,250.
