A new electric saw for cutting small pieces of lumber in a furniture manufacturing planthas a cost basis of $ 4,000 and a 10 - year depreciable life. The estimated salvagevalue of the saw is $ 100 at the end of 10 years. Using the Modified Accelerated CostRecovery System, compute:
A) The depreciation charge in the 3rd yearB) The book value after 3 years**please do not use excel
An automated assembly robot that cost $378,000 has a depreciable life of 5 years with a $80,000 salvage value. The MACRS
(Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System) depreciation rates for years 1, 2, 3, and 6 are 20.00%, 32.00%, 19.20%, and 5.76%,
respectively. What is the book value at the end of year 3? Year 5? Year 6?
The book value at the end of year 3 is $
The book value at the end of year 5 is $
The book value at the end of year 6 is $
An asset purchased for $50,000 has a depreciable life of 5 years, and it has a terminal
book (salvage) value of $5,000 at the end of its depreciable life. With the straight-line
method of depreciation, what is the asset’s book value at the end of year 3?

Madison would use the 3-year MACRS method to depreciate the machine, and management thinks the machine would have a value of $33,000 at the end of its 5-year operating life. The applicable depreciation rates are 33.33%, 44.45%, 14.81%, and 7.41%. Working capital would increase by $35,000 initially, but it would be recovered at the end of the project's 5-year life.
