Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Under MACRS depreciation method, automobiles and equipment are to be depreciated using the double-declining-balance method. This is a type of accelerated depreciation method where depreciation expenses are highest in the early years of the asset's useful life, and then decline over time. The 150%-declining-balance method is not used for automobiles and equipment, and the units-of-production method is typically used for assets whose productivity is directly related to the number of units produced, such as manufacturing equipment. The straight-line method is also used under MACRS, but not for automobiles and equipment.
