Respuesta :

Answer:

$4,870.5

Explanation:

Annual Depreciation Expense:

= [(Cost - Salvage Value) × Machine Usage in 2020] ÷ Total Estimated Working Hours

Depreciation Expense for 2020 (for 3 months only - October to December):

= [($115,900 - $13,900) × 1,910] ÷ (10,000) × (3/12)

= ($102,000 × 1,910) ÷ (10,000) × (1/4)

= $19,482 × (1/4)

= $4,870.5

Notes:

Depreciation will be calculated for only 3 months since the asset has been acquired on 1st October 2020.
