Solar Innovations Corporation bought a machine at the beginning of the year at a cost of $31,000. The estimated useful life was five years and the residual value was $3,000. Assume that the estimated productive life of the machine is 10,000 units. Expected annual production was year 1, 2,000 units; year 2, 3,000 units; year 3, 2,000 units; year 4, 2,000 units; and year 5, 1,000 units. Required:
a. Which method will result in the highest net income in year 2?
b. Does this higher net income mean the machine was used more efficiently under this depreciation method?

Straight line depreciation

no

Explanation:

Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

(31,000 - 3000) / 5 = $5,600

depreciation expense each year is 5600

Activity method based on output = (output produced that year / total output of the machine) x (Cost of asset - Salvage value)

(3000 / 10,000) x (31,000 - 3000) = 8400

Double declining =  

Depreciation expense using the double declining method = Depreciation factor x cost of the asset

2/5 x 31000 = 12400

year 2 = 2/5 x(31,000 - 12400) = 7440
