Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The calculation of the depreciation rate of machinery and equipment has the following formula: Annual depreciation = (acquisition cost – residual value) / years of useful life.

Detailed explanation-2: -Depreciation expense for a given year is calculated by dividing the original cost of the equipment less its salvage value, by the expected number of units the asset should produce given its useful life. Then, multiply that quotient by the number of units (U) used during the current year.

Detailed explanation-3: -To calculate using this method: Subtract the salvage value from the asset cost. Divide that number by the estimated number of hours in the asset’s useful life to get the cost per hour. Multiply the number of hours (or units of production) in the asset’s useful life by the cost per hour for total depreciation.
