A company purchased a weaving machine for $190,000. The machine has a useful life of 8 years and a residual value of $10,000. It is estimated that the machine could produce 75,000 bolts of woven fabric over its useful life. In the first year, 15,000 bolts were produced. In the second year, production increased to 19,000 units. Using the units-of-production method, what is the amount of depreciation expense that should be recorded for the second year?

Answer:

second year depreciation 13,072

Explanation:

190,000 - 10,000 = 180,000 ammount subject to depreciation

then we do:

180,000/75,000 = 0.688 rate per bolt

to get the depreciation for the second year:

19,000 x rate = 19,000 x 180,000/75,000 =  $13,072.00

doing it in a single step avoid rounding errors.
