Answer:

$7000

$7000

b. 15,000

7500

6160

8400

Explanation:

Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

(30,000 -- 20,000) / 4 = 7,000

Depreciation expense using the double declining method = Depreciation factor x cost of the asset

Depreciation factor = 2 x (1/useful life)  

2/4 x 30,000 = $15,000

2022 = 2/4 x (30,000 - 15,000) = 7500

Activity method based on hours worked = (hours worked that year / total hours of the machine) x  (Cost of asset - Salvage value)
