Equipment costing $105000 with a salvage value of $21000 and an estimated life of 8 years has been depreciated using the straight-line method for 2 years. Assuming a revised estimated total life of 6 years and no change in the salvage value, the depreciation expense (rounded) for Year 3 would be
$15750 [($105000 - $21000) ÷ 8] × 2 = $21000; [($105000 - $21000) - $21000] ÷ (6 - 2) = $15750 [(Cost - sal. val.) ÷ 8] × 2= A/D; [(Cost - A/D) - sal. val.] ÷ (6 - 2)
On May 1, 2017, Irwin Company purchased the copyright to Quick Computer Tutorials for $120000. It is estimated that the copyright will have a useful life of 5 years. The amount of amortization expense recognized for the year 2017 would be

Stine estimates that the machinery will have a useful life of 10 years and a residual value of $30000. If Stine uses straight-line depreciation, annual depreciation will be
$6150 [($96000 × 0.90) + $600 + $4500 - $30000] ÷ 10 = $6150 ([List price × (1 - 0.10)] + ship. sal. tax - sal. val.) ÷ 10 yrs.
