The new equipment had a useful life of 5 years, and the salvage value was estimated to be $120,000. Marco estimates that the new equipment can produce 36,000 units in its first year.

The following depreciation methods may be used: (1) straight-line; (2) double-declining-balance; (3) sum-of-the-years'digits; and (4) units-of-output. For tax purposes, the class life is 7 years. Use the MACRS tables for computing depreciation.
