Current Attempt in Progress$(2)$ Double$-$diminishing$-$balance method:

Carla Vista Arrow Ltd$.$ purchased a new bus on October $1,2024,$ at a total cost of $$244,303.$ Management is considering the merits of

using the diminishing$-$balance or units$-$of$-$production methods of depreciation instead of the straight$-$line method, which it currently

uses for its other buses. The new bus has an estimated residual value of $$24,500,$ and an estimated useful life of either four years or

$301,100km.$ Use of the bus will be sporadic so it could be much higher in some years than in others. Assume the new bus is driven as

follows: $7,700$ km in $2024$; $100,100$ km in $2025$; $61,800$ km in $2026$; $96,500$ km in $2027$; and $35,000$ km in $2028.$ Carla Vista Arrow has

an October $31$ year end.

$($a$)$

Prepare separate depreciation schedules for the life of the bus using: $($Round depreciation per unit to $2$ decimal places, e$.$g$.5\mathrm{.}28$ and

final answers to $0$ decimal places, e$.$g$.5,275.)$
