A manufacturer purchased a machine for €74,000 on 1 January 2016 It had an estimated useful life of 4 years and an estimated residual value of €10,000. a) Calculate the depreciation charge for each year using the (1) "straight line" method and (ii) the reducing balance" method. A depreciation rate of 39% is to be used for the "reducing balance" method and calculations should be rounded to the nearest euro. b) Show the depreciation expense account and the accumulated depreciation account for each year from 2016 to 2019 inclusive for the straight line" method Show the (i) machinery, (ii) accumulated depreciation and (iii) disposal - machinery accounts for 2020 if the firm sold the machine on 1 January 2020, for € 10,750, having applied the "straight line" method. (You may assume that the manufacturer had no other machinery and therefore no depreciation needed be charged in 2020.) Show the (i) machinery, (ii) accumulated depreciation and (iii) disposal - machinery accounts for 2020 if the firm sold the machine on 1 January 2020, for €9,100, having applied the "straight line" method. (You may assume that the manufacturer had no other machinery and therefore no depreciation needed be charged in 2020) c) d)

ANSWER:

A. DEPRECIATION FOR EACH YEAR

 

(i) Straight line method

 

Formula = (Cost - Scrap) / Life

 

= (74,000 - 10,000) / 4 years

 

= € 16,000 p.a.

 

For each year, depreciation will be € 16,000

 
   

(ii) Reducing Balance method @ 39%

 

Purchase cost 1st January 2016

         74,000

Depreciation @ 39% for 2016

         28,860

Written down value on 31st December 2016

         45,140

Depreciation @ 39% for 2017

         17,605

Written down value on 31st December 2017

         27,535

Depreciation @ 39% for 2018

         10,739

Written down value on 31st December 2018

         16,797

Depreciation @ 39% for 2019

           6,551

Written down value on 31st December 2019

         10,246
