List (a) the similarities and (b) the differences in the accounting treatments of depreciation and cost depletion.

(Book vs. Tax (MACRS) Depreciation) Futabatei Enterprises purchased a delivery truck on January 1, 2017, at a cost of \(27,000. The truck has a useful life of 7 years with an estimated salvage value of \)6,000. The straight-line method is used for book purposes. For tax purposes, the truck, having an MACRS class life of 7 years, is classified as 5-year property; the optional MACRS tax rate tables are used to compute depreciation. In addition, assume that for 2017 and 2018 the company has revenues of \(200,000 and operating expenses (excluding depreciation) of \)130,000.

Instructions

  1. Prepare income statements for 2017 and 2018. (The final amount reported on the income statement should be income before income taxes.)
  2. Compute taxable income for 2017 and 2018.
  3. Determine the total depreciation to be taken over the useful life of the delivery truck for both book and tax purposes.
  4. Explain why depreciation for book and tax purposes will generally be different over the useful life of a depreciable asset.
