|Interest Approach: |Use the Descartes moment to discover what your students’ level of knowledge is regarding depreciation. Have students fill out |

| |handout # 1. (What they know about depreciation, what they think they know about depreciation, and what they don’t know about |

| |depreciation.) Have a few students share their responses to those questions. |

|Objective 1: |Good morning class. Today we are going to talk about depreciation. We will start our discussion with a quick review of what |

| |depreciation is. Who can tell me what depreciation is? That’s right. Depreciation is the decrease in value of assets over the |

| |course of their useful life. As we learned in Intro to Ag Business II, the Straight line Method of Depreciation is a very simple|

| |and easy method to use. |

| |The formula for straight line depreciation is as follows: |

| |Purchase price minus salvage value divided by the expected useful life. |

| |EXAMPLE $25000 pickup with a $1,000 salvage value depreciated over 6 years |

| |25000-1000/6 = 4000 DEPRECIATION PER YEAR |

|Objective 2: |The second method of depreciation we will examine today is the Declining Balance Method of Depreciation. This is one of the most|

| |common methods of depreciation used in Agriculture today. |

| |The formula for the Declining Balance Method of Depreciation is as follows BOOK VALUE / USEFUL LIFE X ACCELERATION FACTOR = |

| |ANNUAL DEPRECIATION. The most common acceleration factors are 2 (DOUBLE DECLINING) and 1.5 (TIME AND A HALF DECLINING BALANCE). |

| |Let’s look at an example of each. First we will look at the Double Declining Balance Method. Say we have a $30000 pickup with a |

| |useful life of 5 years and an acceleration factor of 2 and a salvage value of $5000, The annual depreciation would be calculated|

| |as follows: |

| |Year 1 depreciation = $30000 / 5 X 2 = $ 12000 Year 1 ending Book Value = $18000 |

| |Year 2 depreciation = $18000 / 5 X 2 = $ 7200 Year 2 ending Book Value = $10800 |

| |Year 3 depreciation = $10800 / 5 X 2 = $ 4320 Year 3 ending Book Value = $ 6480 |

| |Year 4 depreciation = $ 6480 / 5 X 2 = $ 2592 Year 4 ending Book Value = $ 3888 |

| |WE ARE ONLY ALLOWED TO TAKE ENOUGH DEPRECIATION TO EQUAL THE SALVAGE VALUE, SO THE CORRECT YEAR 4 DEPRECIATION WOULD BE $6480 |

| |MINUS $5000 WHICH EQUALS $1480. |

| |Our second example is of time and a half declining balance. Say we will be depreciating the same $30000 pickup over 7 years |

| |using 1.5 acceleration factor and a $5000 salvage value. The example follows: |

| |Year 1 depreciation = $30000 / 7 X 1.5 = $6429 Year 1 ending book value =$ 23571 |

| |Year 2 depreciation = $23571 / 7 X 1.5 = $5051 Year 2 ending book value = $ 18520 |

| |Year 3 depreciation = $18520 / 7 X 1.5 = $3969 Year 3 ending book value = $ 14551 |

| |Year 4 depreciation = $14551 / 7 X 1.5 = $3118 Year 4 ending book value = $ 11433 |

| |Year 5 depreciation = $11433 / 7 X 1.5 = $2450 Year 5 ending book value = $ 8983 |

| |Year 6 depreciation = $ 8993 / 7 X 1.5 = $ 1925 Year 6 ending book value = $ 7068 |

| |Year 7 depreciation = $ 7068 / 7 X 1.5 = $1515 Year 7 ending book value = $ 6913 |

|Objective 3: |The last method of depreciation we will look at today is the Sum of the Years Digits Method. This method uses fractions based on|

| |the useful life of the asset. For example if you are depreciating an asset with a 5 year useful life you would add the years |

| |digits as follows ( 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = 15). Then a fraction is created for each year with the digits in reverse order. Year one|

| |has a fraction of 5/15 and year 5 has a fraction of 1/15. To calculate the yearly depreciation would times the fraction by the |

| |total depreciation to get the depreciation per year. So for a $30000 pickup with a 5 year useful life and a $5000 salvage value |

| |the yearly depreciation would look like this |

| |Year 1 5/15 X $25000 = $8333 depreciation |

| |Year 2 4/15 X $25000 = $6667 depreciation |

| |Year 3 3/15 X $25000 = $5000 depreciation |

| |Year 4 2/15 X $25000 = $3333 depreciation |

| |Year 5 1/15 X $25000 = $1667 depreciation |

| |TOTAL DEPRECIATION = $25000 OVER 5 YEARS |
