The accumulated depreciation balance is = $ 9000.

Explanation:

1. Determining the depreciation rate%.

Total depreciation amount = Asset acquisition cost - Residual value

Total depreciation amount = 25,000 - 3,000 = $ 22,000.

Depreciation rate % = depreciation per year / Total depreciation over useful life × 100.

Depreciation per year = Total depreciation over useful life / No. of years.

Depreciation per year = 22,000/10 = 2,200.

Depreciation rate % = 2,200/ 22,000 × 100 = 10%

But since the company uses double depreciation then depreciation rate % =10% × 2 = 20% .

Determining the depreciation amount for the 31 December 2020

Depreciation amount by 31 December 2020 = depreciation amount for the 31 December 2019 + depreciation amount for the 31 December 2020

Determining depreciation amount for the 31 December 2019.

Depreciation amount for the 31 December 2019 = Depreciation rate × Acquisition value of Asset.

Depreciation amount for the 31 December 2019 = 20% × 25,000

Depreciation amount for the 31 December 2019 = $ 5,000.

Determining depreciation amount for the 31 December 2020.

Depreciation amount for the 31 December 2020 = Depreciation rate × (Acquisition value of Asset - Depreciation amount for the 31 December 2019).

Depreciation amount for the 31 December 2020 = 20% × ( 25,000 - 5,000)

Depreciation amount for the 31 December 2020 = $ 4,000.

Determining the accumulated depreciation balance as of December 31, 2020.

The accumulated depreciation balance as of 2020 = Depreciation amount for the 31 December 2019 + Depreciation amount for the 31 December 2020.

The accumulated depreciation balance as of 2020 = 5,000 + 4,000

The accumulated depreciation balance as of 2020 = $ 9,000.

Activity-based costing (abc) is not truly a cost collection mechanism as much as it is an inventory valuation method. the main purpose for implementing an activity-based cost system is to try to overcome some of the cost distortions that occur in traditional costing from product differences when there are variations in size and complexity. however, one of the disadvantages of utilizing abc is that the additional information gathering necessary to implement costing with that level of detail might be beyond the reach of some companies with resource or financial constraints. with this in mind, what kinds of industries or companies do you think would benefit most from using activity-based costing and why? in designing or modifying an accounting system to capture appropriate costs for abc, what considerations do you think would need to be made?
