Answer:

Annual depreciation expense=$5,100

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the straight line method , an equal amount is charged as depreciation for each each over the estimated useful life of the asset.

Annual depreciation = (Cost - residual value)/Estimated number of years

Cost of the machine= 37,850 + 1,950 = 39,800

Annual depreciation expense= (39,800-4,100)/7= 5,100

Annual depreciation expense=$5,100
