Eckman Company purchased equipment for $120,000 on January 1, 2017, and will use the double-declining-balance method of depreciation. It is estimated that the equipment will have a 5-year life and a $6,000 salvage value at the end of its useful life. The amount of depreciation expense recognized in the year 2019 will be

A. $17,280.
B. $27,360.
C. $28,800.
D. $16,416.

A. $17,280.

Explanation:

First we have to find the depreciation rate which is shown below:

= One ÷ useful life

= 1 ÷ 5

= 20

Now the rate is double So, 40%

In year 2017, the original cost is $120,000, so the depreciation is $48,000 after applying the 50% depreciation rate

And, in year 2018, the ($120,000 - $48,000) × 40% = $28,800

And, in year 2019, ($120,000 - $48,000 - $28,800) × 40% = $17,280
