Answer:

$ 0.61 per unit

Explanation:

The unit-of-activity method is one of the asset depreciation methods. Under this method, the depreciable cost of the asset is spread over the units produced. The formula is a more accurate measure of wear and tear.

In this case:

Depreciable cost=(purchase price -salvage value)

   =$52000.00 -$3200.00

   =$48,800.00

Depreciation  per unit=  Depricable cost / expected production

      =$48,800/80000

    =$ 0.61per unit
