The company uses the straight-line method of depreciation. What is the amount of depreciation expense reported on December 31

Answer 1

Annual depreciation= $5,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchasing price= $33,000

Salvage value= $3,000

Useful life= 6 years

To calculate the depreciation expense under the straight-line method, we need to use the following formula:

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation= (33,000 - 3,000)/6

Annual depreciation= $5,000
