Answer 1

Instructions are listed below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

On January 1, 2021, the Excel Delivery Company purchased a delivery van for $153,000. At the end of its five-year service life, it is estimated that the van will be worth $15,600.

Annual depreciation= 2*[(book value)/estimated life (years)]

Year 1= (153,000/5)*2= 61,200

Year 2= [(153,000 - 61,200)/5]*2= 36,720

Year 3= (55,080/5)*2= 22,032

Year 4= 13,219

Year 5= 7,932

Total= $141,103
