In recent years, Sheridan Company has purchased three machines. Because of frequent employee turnover in the accounting department, a different accountant was in charge of selecting the depreciation method for each machine, and various methods have been used. Information concerning the machines is summarized in the table below.

3 Nov. 1, 2016 78,600 7,600 7 Units-of-activity


For the declining-balance method, Sheridan Company uses the double-declining rate. For the units-of-activity method, total machine hours are expected to be 35,500. Actual hours of use in the first 3 years were: 2016, 800; 2017, 4,200; and 2018, 5,500.
