recorded as 8,640 miles for the first year. Give journal entry to record depreciation for the first year
calculated as per the units-of-production method. (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
Answer:
Depreciation Expense—Truck 100,224
Accumulated Depreciation—Truck 100,224

Explanation:
Depreciation per year = (Cost - Residual value) / Estimated total units

A) $42,333
B) $41,667
C) $33,333
D) $42,667
Answer: B
Explanation: B)
Depletion per unit = (Cost - Residual value) ÷ Estimated total units
Depletion per unit = ($500,000 - $0) ÷ 30,000 tons = $16.6666 per ton
Depletion expense = Depletion per unit × Number of units extracted
Depletion expense for year 2015 = $16.6666 × 2,500 tons = $41,667
