18. © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2005 McGraw-Hill/Irwin 9-18 Half-Year Convention Using the half-year convention, calculate the straight-line depreciation on December 31, 2005, for equipment purchased in 2005. The equipment cost $75,000, has a useful life of 10 years and an estimated salvage value of $5,000. Depreciation= ($75,000 - $5,000) ÷ 10 = $7,000 for a full year Depreciation = $7,000 × 1 / 2 = $3,500 Depreciation= ($75,000 - $5,000) ÷ 10 = $7,000 for a full year Depreciation = $7,000 × 1 / 2 = $3,500
