Question:

Good Life Clubs purchased exercise equipment at a cost of \(\$ 100,000\) each. In addition, Good Life paid \(\$ 2,000\) for a special platform on which to stabilize the equipment for use. Freight costs of \(\$ 2,500\) to ship the equipment were paid by the equipment supplier. Good Life will depreciate the equipment by the units-of-production method, based on an expected useful life of 50,000 hours of exercise. The estimated residual value of the equipment is \(\$ 10,000\). How many hours of usage can Good Life expect from the equipment if budgeted depreciation expense is \(\$ 10,304\) for the year? Why would management choose the units-of production method and not one of the other methods?
