c.[(2 x Book Value)/4] – Accumulated Depreciation
d.[2 x Cost]/4
25.Kristin, Inc. depreciates its plant assets over a 10-year life with a 10% salvage value. Using straight-line depreciation, which calculation will Kristin use during year 2 of the asset’s life?

28.On January 1, 2015, Lane Company made a $12,000 expenditure on a fully depreciated machine. The expenditure increased the expected life of the new machine for two years until December 31, 2016. Lane uses straight-line depreciation with no salvage value. However, Laneerroneously expensed this capital expenditure. As a result of this error,
a.2015 income is overstated by $3,000 and 2016 income is understated by $3,000.
b.2015 income is understated by $6,000 and 2016 income is overstated by $6,000.
c.2015 income is understated by $6,000 and 2016 income is overstated by $3,000.
d.2015 income is understated by $6,000 and 2015 income is correctly stated.
29.A machine was purchased on January 1 for $50,000. The machine has an estimated useful life of 10 years with a salvage value of $2,000. Under the double-declining-balance, depreciation expense for each of the first two years is, respectively,
a.$12,000 and $12,000.
b.$10,000 and $8,000.
c.$12,000 and $9,500.
d.$12,500 and $12,500.
30.A machine was purchased on January 1 for $100,000. The machine has an estimated useful life of 5 years with a salvage value of $10,000. Under the double-declining-balance method, depreciation expense for each of the first two years is, respectively,
a.$45,000 and $22,500.
b.$40,000 and $24,000.
c.$45,000 and $ 27,500.
