Compute depreciation under alternative methods Equipment costing $130,000 is expected to have a residual value of $10,000 at the end of its 6 years usefulness. The equipment is metered, so the number of units processed are counted. The equipment is designed to process 1million unit during its lifetime. In 2016 and 2017 the equipment processed 180,000 and 140,000 units respectively. Calculate the depreciation expense for 2016-2017 using each of the following methods: a. Straight -lineb. Double- declining balance c. Units of production
