Respuesta :

Answer:

$166,000

Explanation:

The computation of the 2021 depreciation expense is shown below:

Depreciation expense is

= (Cost - Salvage value) ÷ Useful life

= ($614,000 - $56,000) ÷ 9

= $62000/year

Now  book value as on 2021 is

= (Cost - Accumulated depreciation expense)

= $614,000 - (62000 × 3)

= $424000

Now revised depreciation expense is

= ($424,000 - $92,000) ÷ 2

= $166,000
