Machinery sold what is the accumulated depreciation?

All equipment owned by a business should be listed on the corporation's income tax return each year. This page of the report is called the Depreciation Schedule. Each year the taxpayer should report any new equipment purchased and also tell his accountant which items of equipment were sold or disposed of by the owner. The corporation's accountant increases the depreciation each year to offset income and thereby reduce taxes. The depreciation amount taken each year is usually higher than the actual physical depreciation occurring due to weather and use. To determine the accumulated depreciation on a piece of equipment, look at the last tax return available to see what the number is on the Depreciation Schedule. The actual value of the equipment sold will be higher than the Purchase Price New minus the Accumulated Depreciation. A good rule of thumb would be to add back 1/2 of the accumulated depreciation to get a ball-park idea of the fair market value. Better yet - have the equipment appraised by a Certified Machinery & Equipment Appraiser (CMEA). For more information on this subject, go to www.nebbinstitute.org.

Can you explain how double declining depreciation works in accounting?

Double declining depreciation is a method used in accounting to calculate the depreciation expense of an asset. It involves depreciating the asset at a faster rate in the early years of its useful life and then slowing down the depreciation in later years. This method results in higher depreciation expenses in the beginning, reflecting the asset's higher usage and wear and tear, and lower expenses towards the end of its useful life.
