The accountant of Miss Nancy told her that she must have to decide the useful life and residual value of these new lawn mowers. After an initial consultation with the stakeholders, she decided that the mowers to last five years and have negligible resale value at that point. The business plan projects cutting 5000 lawns over five years. The yearly projection is as follows: 14 Year: 500 lawns, 2nd Year: 1 000 lawns, 3rd Year: 1 200 lawns, 4th Year: 1 800 lawns, and 5th Year: 500 lawns. Required: 1. Calculate the accumulated depreciation balance at the end of the second year using each of the following depreciation bases: (a) straight-line (1.5 Marks); (b) reducing balance (25 per cent rate) [2 marks]; and (c) units-of-production (1.5 Marks). 2. Based on your calculations, which depreciation basis would produce the highest retained profits at the end of the second year? (2 Marks)
