Explanation:

(a)Computation of depreciation expense using the Straight-line method for 2020

Depreciation expense= ($212,000-$12,000/8×3/12)

Depreciation expense=($200,000/8×3/12)

Depreciation expense=$25,000×3/12

Depreciation expense=$6,250

(b) Computation depreciation expense using Activity method (units of output) for 2020

Depreciation expense=($212,000-$12,000/$40,000)×$1000

Depreciation expense=($200,000/$40,000)×$1,0000

Depreciation expense=5×$1,000

Depreciation expense=$5000

(c) Computation for depreciation expense using Activity method (working hours) for 2020

Depreciation expense=($212,000-$12,000/$20,000)×525 hours Depreciation expense=($200,000/$20,000)×525 hours

Depreciation expense=$10× 525 hours

Depreciation expense=$5250

(d) Computation for depreciation expense using the Sum of the years digits method for 2022

Depreciation expense=($212,000-$20,000×7/36×9/1)2+($212,000-$12,000×6/36×3/12)

Depreciation expense=($200,000×7/36×9/12)+($200,000×6/36×3/12)

Depreciation expense=$29,166 +$8,333

Depreciation expense=$37,500

(e) Computation for depreciation expense using the Double balance method for 2021

Depreciation expense=($200,000+$12000×25%×9/12)+($200,000 +$12,000×75% ×25% ×3/12)

Depreciation expense=($212,000×25%×9/12)+($212,000×75% ×25% ×3/12)

Depreciation expense=$39,750+$9,938

Depreciation expense=$49,688
