The hemoglobin test is often used to check for anemia, usually along with a hematocrit or as part of a complete blood count (CBC) . The test may be used to screen for, diagnose, or monitor a number of conditions and diseases that affect red blood cells (RBCs) and/or the amount of hemoglobin in blood. Screen for, diagnose, and measure the severity of anemia (low RBCs, hemoglobin and hematocrit) or polycythemia (high RBCs, hemoglobin and hematocrit). 2  Monitor the response to treatment of anemia or polycythemia. 3  Help make decisions about blood transfusions or other treatments if the anemia is severe.
The full replacement cost of the roof is $10,000. The insurance adjuster âdepreciatedâ the roof 50% â an arbitrary number â based on its age, so the Actual Cash Value of the roof is now $5,000. The recoverable depreciation also happens to be $5,000 ($10,000 replacement value less $5,000 Actual Cash Value). The policy ownerâs deductible is $1,000. The insurance company will initially make a payment to the policy owner for $4,000.
It has an estimated salvage value of $10,000 and a useful life of five years. Pensive calculates the annual straight-line depreciation for the machine as: 1  Purchase cost of $60,000 â estimated salvage value of $10,000 = Depreciable asset cost of $50,000.2  1 / 5-year useful life = 20% depreciation rate per year. Subtract the estimated salvage value of the asset from the amount at which it is recorded on the books. 2  Determine the estimated useful life of the asset. 3  It is easiest to use a standard useful life for each class of assets.
