Answer:

The workings are made below;

Explanation:

Depreciation Expense for 2022   =($90,880-$,8,640)/8=$10,280*3/12=$2,570

Depreciation Expense for 2023=$10,280  ($90,880-$8,640)/8

The depreciation for 2022 is calculated  on pro rata basis from the date of purchase till December 31,2022.

Where as depreciation for 2023 is charged on full year basis as the asset was used for the whole year.

Answer:

Year 2022 = $2,570

Year 2023 = $10,280

Explanation:

Original cost = $90,880

Salvage value = $8,640

Number of useful years = 8

Using the straight line method ;

Annual depreciation = (Original cost - salvage value) ÷ Number of useful years

Annual depreciation = ($90,880 - $8640) ÷ 8

Annual depreciation = $82,240 ÷ 8

Annual depreciation = $10,280

2023 depreciation value = $10,280

However, the machine was purchased in October 1, 2022:

Therefore, 2022 depreciation = 3 months;

Monthly depreciation = $10,280 ÷ 12 = $856.6667

Therefore, 2022 depreciation :

$856.6667 × 3 = $2,569.999

=$2,570
