### Depreciation Methods and Schedules

#### Requirements

1. **Depreciation Schedules:** Prepare a schedule showing asset cost, depreciation expense, accumulated depreciation, and asset book value for each year of the asset’s life. Round depreciation per unit to three decimal places for units of production. Before computing straight-line depreciation, calculate the rate.

2. **Maximizing First-Year Depreciation:** Bailey Enterprises Inc. plans to report the highest possible depreciation for the first year. Consider all methods: straight-line, units of production, and double-declining balance.

3. **Balance Sheet Reporting:** Show equipment on the December 31, 2018, balance sheet for each method.

#### Straight-Line Depreciation

- **Calculation:** Complete the schedule through 2019, then enter subsequent amounts until 2022.
- **Table:** Fill out asset cost, depreciation rate, depreciation expense, accumulated depreciation, and book value.

#### Units of Production Depreciation

- **Formula:** 
  \[
  \text{Depreciation Cost} = \frac{\text{Cost - Residual Value}}{\text{Total Units of Output}} \times \text{Output}
  \]
- **Table:** Fill out asset cost, depreciation per unit, units, expense, accumulated depreciation, and book value through 2022.

#### More Info

- **Initial Asset Purchase:** Bailey Enterprises Inc. bought $205,600 worth of equipment on January 4, 2018. The purchase includes $8,900 freight charges and $4,500 for a building foundation. Residual value $6,000, estimated output 18,000 units for 5 years. Production: 3,300 units (2018), 4,400 (2019), 4,000 (2020), 3,200 (2021), 3,100 (2022).

### Visual Elements

- **Tables:** Spreadsheets for Straight-Line and Units of Production depreciation are included, with columns for different depreciation metrics.
