In this exercise, you will complete a depreciation schedule for RYT Inc. In an Excel table, calculate depreciation expense, and analyze the table data. A primary goal is to ensure that the depreciation schedule can be easily understood by the end user.
Use this information (provided as of 9/30/2015) to create the depreciation schedule as of 9/30/2016 for RYT Inc. using appropriate headers and a table in which all pertinent information is displayed.
| Fixed Asset | Date of Acquisition | Cost | Salvage Value | Useful Life (years) | Accumulated Depreciation |
| Office Furniture | 10/1/2014 | $2,800 | $400 | 8 | $ 1,225.00 |
| Field Equipment | 10/1/2011 | $25,000 | $1,000 | 12 | $14.953.06 |
| Truck | 10/1/2010 | $16,500 | $1,500 | 15 | $ 9,508.08 |
RYT Inc. uses the double declining balance* method of depreciation. In addition to the fixed assets shown, RYT Inc. acquired a new automobile on 10/1/2015. It cost $13,000, has an estimated twelve-year useful life, and has an estimated salvage value of $1,000.
Create the table so there is a column for each item (note that some figures may appear different in your 9/30/2016 table than they do in the 9/30/2015 chart). Include columns for the annual depreciation expense and year-end book value. Use a function to calculate depreciation expense and structured references when calculating the year-end book value. Sort the table by accumulated depreciation in ascending order. Filter the table to display only assets for which the cost is greater than $4,000.
