Answer:

Net Investment = 4,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Gross Investment = 10,000

Depreciation = Market Value - Book value

Depreciation =26,000 - 20,000

Depreciation = 6,000

Net Investment = Gross Investment - Depreciation

Net Investment = 10,000 - 6,000

Net Investment = 4,000

NOTE: Gross investment for 2017 will be the 3 new beds that Sophie bought during 2017 at a total cost of 10,000. To calculate Net investment we should calculate depreciation first by deducting book value from market value.
