Respuesta :

Answer:

b. $7,692

Explanation:

Given that the useful life of nonresidential real property is 39 years,

Cost of property = $300,000

Month of purchase = March 2018

Depreciation for 2019 = Cost/Useful life

                                    = $300,000/39

                                    = $7,692.31

                                    ≈ $7,692

The property will be depreciated for the 12 months in 2019 and the depreciation expense is  $7,692. Option b.
