Machine A: The cash price of this machine was $38,500. Related expenditures included: sales tax $2,200, shipping costs $175, insurance during shipping $75, installation and testing costs $50, and $90 of oil and lubricants to be used with the machinery during its first year of operation. Solomon estimates that the useful life of the machine is 4 years with a $5,000 salvage value remaining at the end of that time period.
Machine B: The recorded cost of this machine was $100,000. Solomon estimates that the useful life of the machine is 4 years with a $8,000 salvage value remaining at the end of that time period.

(1) Solomon uses the straight-line method of depreciation. (2) Solomon uses the declining-balance method.The rate used is twice the straight-line rate. (3) Solomon uses the units-of-activity method and estimates the useful life of the machine is 25,000 units. Actual usage is as follows: 2006, 6,500 units; 2007, 7,500 units; 2008, 6,000 units; 2009, 5,000 units.
