If a company produces the same number of units per period over an asset's useful life, each period's depreciation expense using the straight-line method will be the same as that recorded using the units-of-production method.
A. True
B. False

Straight-line method of depreciation spreads the depreciation cost evenly over the life of the asset. The amount of depreciation is the same year in year out. It can be calculated as follows:

(Cost of the asset - residual value) ÷ number of useful life of the asset.

While units-of-production method is almost the same as the straight-line method. It is calculated as:

(Cost of the asset - residual value) ÷ expected number of units of production throughout the useful life of the asset.

Since the number of units of production will be same throughout the life span of the asset, the depreciation expense will also be the same
