1. Straight-line method:
- Depreciation Expense per year: $47,500

2. Units-of-production method:
- Year 1: Depreciation Expense = ($190,000 - $20,000) / 363,400 units * 121,400 units= 57,058
- Year 2: Depreciation Expense = ($190,000 - $20,000) / 363,400 units * 122,400 units= 57,528
- Year 3: Depreciation Expense = ($190,000 - $20,000) / 363,400 units * 119,600 units= 56,212

3. Double-declining-balance method:
- Year 1: Depreciation Expense = ($210,000 - $0) * 50%

• Determine the straight-line depreciation rate: 1/Useful Life = 1/4 = 0.25 or 25%
• Double the straight-line rate to get the Double-declining-balance rate: 2 * 25% = 50%
• Calculate the depreciation expense for each year:
- Year 1: $210,000 * 50% = $105,000
- Year 2: ($210,000 - $105,000) * 50% = $52,500
- Year 3: ($210,000 - $105,000 - $52,500) * 50% = $26,250
