Answer:
$6,775
Explanation:
The computation of the depreciation expense using the straight line method is shown below:
Straight-line method:
= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)
= ($30,800 - $3,700) ÷ (4 years)
= ($27,100) ÷ (4 years)
= $6,775
In this method, the depreciation is same for all the remaining useful life
Therefore, in the first and second year the same depreciation expense is to be charged i.e $6,775
