Computation of depreciation expense under the units of production method

Total cost of equipment                                                     $ 850,000

Salvage value of equipment                                              $ (   14,000)

Depreciable basis                                                               $ 836,000

Estimated useful life in hours                                                   38,000

Depreciation per hour of usage $ 836,000 / 38,000      $ 22 per hour used

Total usage during the year                                                    6000 hours

Depreciation expense  6000 hours * $ 22 per hour          $ 132,000
