80. A machine with a cost of $120,000 has an estimated residual value of $15,000 and an estimated life of five years or
15,000 hours. It is to be depreciated by the units-of-activity method. What is the amount of depreciation for the
second full year, during which the machine was used 5,000 hours?
a. $5,000
b. $35,000
c. $21,000
d. $45,000

ANSWER: b
RATIONALE: Depreciation per Operating Hour = (Cost – Residual Value)/Total Units of
Output = ($120,000 – $15,000)/15,000 hours = $7
Depreciation Expense = Depreciation per Operating Hour × Total Units of
Output Used = $7 × 5,000 hours = $35,000

83. Equipment with a cost of $160,000, an estimated residual value of $40,000, and an estimated life of 15 years was
depreciated by the straight-line method for four years. Due to obsolescence, it was determined that the remaining
useful life should be shortened by three years and the residual value changed to zero. The depreciation expense for
the current and future years is
a. $11,636
b. $16,000
c. $11,000
d. $8,000

ANSWER: b
RATIONALE: Depreciation for First 4 Years = [(Initial Cost – Residual Value)/Estimated Life]
×4
Depreciation for First 4 Years = [($160,000 – $40,000) ÷ 15] × 4 = $32,000
Book Value at End of 4th Year = $160,000 – $32,000 = $128,000

korppi se istui männyssään, kuin veistos liikkumaton, ja mietti
syvästi ihmeissään: »Mikä Johanssoneilla nyt on?»

Sinä selvisit luodeista, langoistakin, — miks nyt olet


neuvoton? Tänä yönä laps syntyy Johanssonin, ja kuin sinä
selvä hän on. Moni nähnyt on tuikkiva jouluyö hänet päissään,
ja kimmeltänyt hänen ruutuunsa turhaan on tähtien vyö.
Hänen poikansa näkee se nyt.

Punasilmäinen, Johansson, poikas on, ja se nurkasta


pilkistää. Se iloa on, kun Johansson ei perillisettä jää. Mut
nainen, mi saapui sun tupahas läpi metsän helisevän — niin
ääneti, kuin sinä juopuessas, nyt oljilla nukkuu hän.

Pyhä, kuin sävel urkujen, kuolema on, se suuremman levon


kuin humala suo — kuin valkehin koivu, oi Johansson, hän
lepää, ken tanssien sai tupas luo. — Ja hehkussa aamun
heräävän nyt korppivanhus nähdä voi: lepäs kuolleena
pullojen keskellä hän, joka Johanssonille sanansa soi.

Ja Johansson katsoi vainajaan, oli nääntyneen näköinen


raukka. Ja korppi mietti: »Nyt muistaa saan, miten kyyhkyn
surmasi haukka.»

Ja Johansson katsoi lastaankin, ja korppi mietti sen


nähden: »Nyt muistan, miten huuhkajankin peri kuolema
poikasten tähden.»

Asuu puolukkamäellä korppi, kai parisataa jo vuosiltansa.


Se joskus siipeensä haulin sai, vähän jäykkä on niskastansa.
Kivunhuudolla ihmisten tulevan ja menevän nähnyt se on.
Tavall' lintujen kaulaa se ojentaa. Viel' ehkä se männystä
nähdä saa, miten vierellä vaimonsa, vainajan, on päissään
Johansson.

TURE NERMAN (1886—1969)

Kaunein laulu.

Sitä kauneinta laulua rakkauden ei paineta milloinkaan.


Ylioppilas köyhä Montmartre'n sitä salasi haaveenaan.

Yli maiden se laulu kaikunut ois,


monen painaen polvilleen,
ja maailma ottanut vastaan
ois uuden Musset'n.

Hän huhtikuun rannoilla ois Lucie'n


sinisilmäisen kohdannut
ja orvokit, suudelmat yössä
nyt runoillut.

Sitä laulua koskaan painettu ei: kera ylioppilaan se on


kaivettu joukkohautaan ja multaan Flanderin maan.

(Suom. Elina Vaara)


KARL ASPLUND (1890—1978):

Quand même. (EV)

I.

Kylä hiljainen Ranskassa viheriöi. Taa painui poppelien siell'


illoin aurinko, kello löi kylän tornissa humisten.

Oli kedolla vanhimman kartanon maan


lahokuorinen kirsikkapuu.
Toki huntuun se verhousi valkeaan,
joka kerta, kun sai kevätkuu.

Sadat vuodet jo hedelmiään se soi,


sadat pöydät kaunistaen.
Ja se lempeän Ranskan mullasta joi
ravinnokseen kosteuden.

Taas aikoi se puhjeta kukkihin,


kevät maasta kun roudan vei.
Mut sodan vuos' oli katkerin,
maa Ranskan ollut ei.
Kylän länsipuolelle rintamat loi nyt ampumahautojaan, ja
kuulien vuorolauseet soi yli omistajattoman maan.

II

Pikimustana aamuna hyökkäykseen kävi ranskalaiset nyt.


Kylän valloittivat he leirikseen, kun yö oli ennättänyt.

Sora-aukeille kiväärit koottihin


pataljoonan uupuneen,
kuin voitetun murhetta pikemminkin
oli riemu voittaneen.

Pala Ranskaa kerran menetettiin,


sen vihollinen vei.
Mikä vihdoin takaisin vallattiin,
maan nimeä ansainnut ei.

Oli jäljellä hirret hiiltyneet,


kasat tiilien murtuvain,
maakuopissa haisivat saviset veet,
kadun loassa ruumiita vain.

Kävi tuuli ylitse raunion,


väki tiukensi viittojaan.
Kuin väristys, häpeä toivoton
piti jokaista vallassaan.

— Maa eikö jo haavoja lääkitsemään


väsy, joita sen lapset löi?
Se on virunut vuosia verissään.
Se vieläkö hedelmöi?
Miten kenttäharmaasta ihminen
hyvä, onnellinen saa?
Miten keskeltä voi veren, ruumiiden
uus versoa kukkiva maa?

III.

Kun saksalaiset poistumahan oli seudulta valmihit, joka


hedelmäpuun nyt puhkeavan sai kaataa sapöörit.

Myös sortunut kirveen iskuihin


oli puu satavuotinen.
Yhä jokunen säie kuitenkin
piti kiinni juurista sen.

Ja eleellä gallialaisella soi


nyt parhaan mehunsa maa
puun juuriin, että kauneimmin voi
se kuolossa kukoistaa.

Kukat ruhtinaalliset haavainen puu kohotti ilmoihin kuin


elämän säihkyvän, voitollisen näky ylväs: Uhallakin!

(Suom. Elina Vaara)


PÄR LAGERKVIST (1891—1974)

Kauneinta on hämärtyissä.

Kauneinta on hämärtyissä illoin.


Kaikki taivaan rakkaus on silloin
kerääntynyt valoon tummuvaan
peittääksensä
mullan, talot maan.

Kaiken yllä hellyys väräjääpi.


Herra itse rannat himmentääpi.
Sulaa kaukainen ja läheinen.
Kaiken saa vain
lainaks ihminen.

Kaikk' on omaani ja kaikki jälleen


otetaan pois multa, kaikki jälleen.
Puut ja maa ja pilvet taivahan.
Jäljettömiin
yksin vaellan.

(Suom. Lauri Viljanen)


Auringon hiukset.

Nyt aurinko vaaleita hiuksiaan ens aamuhetkellä avaa ja ne


levittää yli keväisen maan, missä tuhannet kukkaset havaa.

Yön kasteeseen hän viileähän,


jota kukkien kätköissä lymyy,
ne kostuttaa, mut epäillen hän,
hajamielin, kuin unessa hymyy.

Yli sallii metsäin ja niittyjen


hän tuulen niitä kantaa,
niiden hyväillä vuoteessa vanhusten
sekä lapsien poskea antaa.

Mut kauas hän ikävöi sydämessään;


mikä hyöty on ilosta juuri?
Hän katsoo tähtiä ympärillään:
elon ongelma on niin suuri.

Kun hetki on autuas huomenen, hän vaaleat hiuksensa


avaa yli katsoen menneiden maailmojen ja uusien, jotka
havaa.

(Suom. Lauri Viljanen)

Hopeahuilu.

Ken soittaa murhetta mun ja sun?


Soi huilu, pieni hopeahuilu.
On kuollut rakkaus sun sekä mun.
— Soi huilu, pieni hopeahuilu.

Kova sydämeni on, kova niinkuin sun.


Kaikki on häväisty, poljettu maahan.
— Soi pieni huilu surua nyt sun sekä mun.
Yön yksinäinen hopeahuilu.

Nyt luotasi lähden ma kauaksi pois.


Ma etsin tietä kotiin sydänyössä.
— Soi pieni huilu kimeään, kuin haava lyöty ois
nyt pimeyden poveen sydänyössä.

Suo levon mulle Jumala, mun kätkee multahan


ja haudan syvään, syvään hiljaisuuteen.
— Soi huilu laulain sillalta, mi kautta kuoleman
vie elon yöstä pimeähän ikuisuuteen.

(Suom. Elina Vaara)

Kirje. (EV)

Toi kirje viestit laihojen ja viinimarjapensaiden, toi


äitivanhan horjuvin ja suurin kirjaimin.

Sai mieleen joka sanallaan


se kukkaniityn, viljamaan
ja Hänet, jonka antimet
on ainaiset.
Siell' auringossa uinuvan
näin kylän Herran suojaaman,
ja rauhaa kellot kirkkahat
ne kaikuivat.

Puutarha ehtoolauluin soi


ja lavendeli tuoksun loi,
kun piirsi pyhähetkenään
hän kirjeen tään.

Se kiiruhtanut olikin yöt päivät, että tulisin ma kaukainen


sen tuntohon, mik' ikuisinta on.

STEN SELANDER (1891—1957)

Kevätsade. (EV)

Sade suhisee ja helää syvään kostuttaen maata, joka


henkää huoahtain. Kuunnellen ma kuljen, kunnes itkua en
estää saata sateen vuoksi vain.

Armas sade, joll' on työnä multaa juottaa maljastansa,


kunnes kaikki kevään yönä itkee onneansa!

Syleilyyni kaiken nuoren, hennon, heräävän nyt suljen


polvilleni langeten. Vallass' arkuuden ma kuljen raskain
saappain maata, jok'on äiti nuoruuden.

Sieluni mun puiden lailla tuuliin havahtua halaa, versoa kuin


oras mailla hiljaa, roudan sulaessa. Kyyneleet, joit' itkin salaa,
satein sieluani valaa kevätyössä hiljaisessa.

Kaikki köyhää, kuihtuvaa sen rinnalla on maailmassa, että


syntyvä on taasen elo uuteen muotohon. Nuoren, uuden
kukinnassa kaikki on.

(Suom. Elina Vaara)


Kuiva puu.

Puu kuivettunut taivahalle nosti


viel' oksan viherjöivän, viimeisen.
Kuin fakiiri se jäykistynein käsin
huus' rajun rukouksen:

Te mustat pilvet, huudan puolehenne!


Vain vettä, niin käyn jälleen kukkimaan!
En ole kuollut, lehdin vielä — enkö
ma kuki enää milloinkaan?

Mut vastaus ei sadevirroin tullut,


vaan salamoin. Niin taivas sääti sen.
Ja koko puu kuin suuri kukka hehkui,
kuin jättikukka tulinen.

GABRIEL JÖNSSON (1893—1984)

Ja taivaalta tähtiterttu

sade lankee.

Kätes ojenna, ah, miten suloisesti


pilvistä valuu viileitä pisaroita!
Syvään tunne, mun armahain, maan kiitos

Kuivat lehdet kahisee kevyesti,


nauttien ojentuvat poltetut yrtit.
Kiittäin huokuu vainiot, jotka hämyn

ja sen vaiheilla, pähkinäpensastossa,
