At the beginning of year 1, Looby Corp. purchases equipment for $100,000. The equipment has a residual value of $20,000 and an expected useful life of 10 years. What is accumulated depreciation at the end of year 2 using straight-line depreciation

Accumulated Depreciation at the end of year  =  $16,000

Explanation:

Under the straight line method of depreciation, the cost of an asset less the salvage value is spread equally over the expected useful life.

An equal amount is charged as annual depreciation over the life of the asset. The annual depreciation is calculated as follows:

Annual depreciation:

= (cost of assets - salvage value)/ Estimated useful life

Cost - 100,000

Residual value = 20,000

Estimated useful life = 10 years

Annual depreciation = (100,000- 20,000)/10 =8,000

Annual depreciation = 8,000

Accumulated Depreciation for 2 years = Annual depreciation× number of years

                            = 8,000× 2 = 16,000

Accumulated Depreciation for 2 years =  $16,000

income statement is prepared in order to show the profits and loss of a business. in order to prepare the income statement she should collect all the income and expenses of the product with the cost of production.

u = 30

continuing your method

= +

subtract from both sides

= - thus

= -

= ⇒ u = 30
