Depreciation for 1st year = 6000
Depreciation for 2nd year = 2000
Depreciation for 3rd year = 400
James' mom purchased a new truck for $39,310 four years ago. James, who is a mechanic, estimated that the truck's present value is $25,250. What is her depreciation? Formula: Depreciation = Purchase Price - Today's Value/Number of Years Owned
$16,250
Declining-Balance
The formula for reducing balance method of depreciation is r = 1 - (S/C)1/n. The r stands for rate of depreciation, n stands for estimated useful life of asset, S stands for residual value after the expiry of useful life, and C stands for the original cost of asset.
Value of asset: Cost price - accumulated depreciation annual depreciation = (260000-20000 ) / 5 = 48000 Value of asset = 260000 - (48000 *2) 96000 = 164000

To calculate a car's depreciation value one must determine the residual percentage of the vehicle then find the original MSRP on the vehicle. One must then multiply the residual percentage by the original MSRP, the outcome will be the depreciated value of the vehicle.
rate = 1 - (n * by the square root of R /C) * 100% Where: n = the number of years of useful life of the asset - R= the estimated residual value of the asset C= the cost of the asset
Residual value is the future value of a good after depreciation of its initial value. For example you bought a car for $20,000. After two years and 60,000 of mileage it will value of $10,000.
The straight line method assumes that the useful life of an asset is evenly distributed to its life, so results in a constant depreciation charge per year provided the estimated residual value remains constant over the life of the asset. for example, Asset's value = $100,000 useful life = 10 years residual value = $20,000 depreciation per year = (100,000 - 20,000)/10 = $8000 per year The diminishing balance method assumes that the asset is more useful on the early days and less useful in the later days, so it results in more depreciation charge in the early years and the charge decreases as the asset becomes old. for example, Asset's value = $100,000 residual value = $20,500 depreciation rate = 10% useful life = 15 years depreciation year 1. (100,000 * 10%) = 10,000 depreciation year 2. (100,000 - 10,000 W1) * 10% = 9000 depreciation year 3. (100,000 - 19,000 W2)* 10% = 8100 depreciation year 4. (100,000 - 27,100 W3)* 10% = 7290 W1 = depreciation of year 1 W2 = depreciation of year 1 and year 2 combined W3 = depreciation of year 1, year 2 and year 3 combined
The residual for a particular point in a regression is negative if the estimated or fitted value at that point is greater than the observed value.
In financial accounting there are three types of depreciation methods:Straight-line = (cost-residual value)/useful life. This method is used when the asset generates revenues that are equal (or very close to equal) over its useful life.Diminishing balance = (cost-accumulated depreciation)*depreciation rate. This method is used when the asset's revenues decrease over its useful life.Units of production = (cost-residual value)*units used /total life units. This method is used when an asset generates revenues based on its measurable usage.
