The following is the formula to calculate depreciation under units of production method:

depreciation = [tex] \frac{number of units produced}{life of the asset in units}[/tex] multiplied by the (cost - salvage value)

So in our given:

$6000 is the cost
0 for salvage value
900 hours in the units used
7000 hours is the life of the asset

Plug this in the formula:

[tex] \frac{900}{7000} [/tex] multiplied by 6000
= .129 * 6000
= $774

The answer is $774
