Fordon corporation purchased a piece of equipment for $50,000. it estimated a 8-year life and $2,000 salvage value. at the end of year 4 (before the depreciation adjustment), it estimated the new total life to be 10 years and the new salvage value to be $4,000. compute the revised depreciation. company uses straight-line depreciation method. (round answer to 0 decimal places, e. g. 125.) revised depreciation

Revised Depreciation charge per year is $2,200

Explanation:

Revised Depreciation can be calculated in 3 steps:

Step 1: Annual Depreciation charge of Equipment using initial estimate

Depreciation charge = (Cost of Asset – Salvage Value) / Useful life

Depreciation charge = ($50,000 - $2,000) / 8 years = $6,000 per year

Step 2: Calculate Net Book Value of Equipment at the end of year 4

Cost of Asset:                                                                            $50,000

Less: Accumulated Depreciation of 4 Years ($6,000 x 4):    ($24,000)

Net Book Value:                                                                    $26,000

Step 3: Calculate Revised Depreciation charge using the revised useful life

Revised Depreciation charge = (Net Book Value of Asset at the end of Year 4  – New Salvage Value) / Revised Useful life

Revised Depreciation charge = ($26,000 - $4,000) / 10 Years = $2,200 per year

one of the disadvantages of getting a government sponsored mortgage is they put a limit on the purchase price of the house. because the government is in charge of the mortage loan and terms, they are able to control how much money they are allowing someone to take out for the loan. not only are they incontrol, it's a lengthy process for a government sponsored mortgage.

the answer is true.  i do believe this is the answer because of the amount of wrecks people get into each year.  if you double this with avoiding those so said wrecks, that would make you a "skilled" driver.
