Answer:

Depreciation for 2016 is $25,800

Book value at December 31, 2016 is $51,600.

Explanation:

Given:

  • Cost of equipment = $84,000
  • Residual value = $6,600
  • Expected life = 5 Years

Solution:

According to Sum-of-years-digit method:

Deprecation expense = Remaining life of assets x Depreciable cost /sum of the year's digits.

  • Depreciable cost = $84,000 - $6,600 = $77,400
  • Sum of the year's digits = 1+2+3+4+5 = 15.

Deprecation expense = 5 x ($84,000 - $6,600) / 15

Deprecation expense = 5 x $77,400 / 15

Deprecation expense = $387,000 / 15

Deprecation expense = $25,800

Book value = Depreciable cost - Deprecation expense

Book value at December 31, 2016 = $77,400 - $25,800 = $51,600
