Answer:

Depreciation to be recorded each year in income statement = $8,000

Accumulated depreciation at end of year 1 = $8,000

Accumulated depreciation at end of year 2 = $8,000 + $8,000 = $16,000

Explanation:

Provided information,

Taxi purchased for a value of $36,000

Expected salvage value = $4,000

Estimated life of asset = 4 years

Using straight line depreciation we have,

Depreciation each year = [tex]\frac{36,000 - 4,000}{4} = $8,000[/tex]

Depreciation to be recorded each year in income statement = $8,000

Accumulated depreciation at end of year 1 = $8,000

Accumulated depreciation at end of year 2 = $8,000 + $8,000 = $16,000
