Question

Bramble Corp. purchased a delivery truck for $38,800 on January 1, 2019. The truck has an expected salvage value of $1,800, and is expected to be driven 100,000 miles over its estimated useful life of 8 years. Actual miles driven were 14,700 in 2019 and 12,900 in 2020. (a1) Calculate depreciable cost per mile under units-of-activity method. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 0.50.)

Answer 1

Depreciable cost per mile= $0.37

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchase price= $38,800

Salvage value= $1,800

Expected to be driven 100,000 miles over its estimated useful life.

To calculate the depreciable cost per mile, we need to use the following formula:

Depreciable cost per mile= (original cost - salvage value)/useful life of production in miles

Depreciable cost per mile= (38,800 - 1,800)/100,000

Depreciable cost per mile= $0.37
