Kam Company purchased a machine on January 2, 2019, for 20,000. The machine had an expected life of 8 years and a residual value of 300. The double-declining-balance method of depreciation is used. Required: 1. Compute the depreciation expense for each year of the assets life and book value at the end of each year. 2. Assuming that the company has a policy of always changing to the straight-line method at the midpoint of the assets life, compute the depreciation expense for each year of the assets life. 3. Assuming that the company always changes to the straight-line method at the beginning of the year when the annual straight-line amount exceeds the double-declining-balance amount, compute the depreciation expense for each year of the assets life.
Comprehensive: Acquisition, Subsequent Expenditures, and Depreciation On January 2, 2019, Lapar Corporation purchased a machine for 50,000. Lapar paid shipping expenses of 500, as well as installation costs of 1,200. The company estimated that the machine would have a useful life of 10 years and a residual value of 3,000. On January 1, 2020, Lapar made additions costing 3,600 to the machine in order to comply with pollution-control ordinances. These additions neither prolonged the life of the machine nor increased the residual value. Required: 1. If Lapar records depreciation expense under the straight-line method, how much is the depreciation expense for 2020? 2. Assume Lapar determines the machine has three significant components as shown below. If Lapar uses IFRS, what is the amount of depreciation expense that would be recorded?
