Answer:
The depreciation charge in 2021 is $ 164,000.00
Explanation:
Annual depreciation charge=cost-salvage value/useful life
cost is $610,000
salvage value is $61,000
useful life is 9 years
Annual depreciation charge=($610,000-$61,000)/9=$61000
The depreciation of charge of $61000 is applicable to years 2018 ,2019 and 2020 respectively.
The estimates of the asset changed in the year 2021,hence a new depreciation based on the present book value is required.
revised depreciation charge=$610,000-($61,000*3)-$99,000/(5-3)=
$164,000.00
