Question

Farr Company purchased a new van for floral deliveries on January 1, 2021. The van cost $56,000 and has an estimated life of five years and $14,000 salvage value at the end of its useful life. The double-declining-balance method of depreciation will be used. What is the balance of the Accumulated Depreciation account at the end of 2022?

Answer 1

$15,120

Step-by-step explanation:

Dec 2021 Depreciation ($56,000 - $14000) / 5 = $8400

Dec 2022 Depreciation ($56,000-$8400 - $14000) / 5 = $6720

Accumulated Depreciation = $8400 + $6720 = $15,120
