On January 1, 2019, Upward Company purchased a copy machine. The machine costs $320,000, its estimated useful life is 8 years, and its expected salvage value is $20,000. What is the depreciation expense for 2020 using double-declining-balance method

Respuesta :

Answer:

$60,000

Explanation:

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

Depreciation factor = 2 x (1/useful life) = 2 / 8 = 0.25

Depreciation expense in 2019 = 0.25 x $320,000 = $80,000

Book value at the beginning of 2020 = $320,000 - $80,000 = $240,000

Depreciation expense in 2020 = 0.25 x $240,000 = $60,000

I hope my answer helps you
