On January 1, Year 1, Milton Manufacturing Company purchased equipment with a list price of $37,000. A total of $4,000 was paid for installation and testing. During the first year, Milton paid $6,000 for insurance on the equipment and another $700 for routine maintenance and repairs. Milton uses the units-of-production method of depreciation. Useful life is estimated at 100,000 units, and estimated salvage value is $8,000. During Year 1, the equipment produced 14,000 units. What is the amount of depreciation for Year 1

Annual depreciation= $4,620

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchasing price= $37,000

Installation= $4,000

Milton uses the units-of-production method of depreciation. Useful life is estimated at 100,000 units, and the estimated salvage value is $8,000. During Year 1, the equipment produced 14,000 units.

First, we will determine the total cost consisting of the purchasing price and all costs to make the equipment operable.

Total cost= 37,000 + 4,000= $41,000

Now, to calculate the depreciation expense, we need to use the following formula:

Annual depreciation= [(original cost - salvage value)/useful life of production in units]*units produced

Annual depreciation= [(41,000 - 8,000)/100,000]*14,000

Annual depreciation= $4,620

anyone below or above ambitious can tell you. so crowns mean brainliest. getting brainliest means your answer needs a good explanation and the person asking the question can understand your answer easily. so say there's a multiple choice question. you don't just want to say your answer is a, hope it . provide evidence and reasoning so that they know that that is the correct answer. a good explanation should have evidence, good reasoning, and your opinion on why you picked that. you don't want to look up their question on the internet and see if you can answer it. pick questions that you 100% know the answer to, so than that way you can provide a better explanation.

best of luck,
