The tractor was purchased on January 1, 2019 and was used 2,400 hours in 2019 and 2,200 hours in 2020. What amount will Spencer Company report as depreciation expense over the 8-year life of the equipment using straight-line depreciation

Respuesta :

Answer:

$60,000

Explanation:

The computation of the depreciation expense using the straight line method is shown below:

= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)

= ($540,000 - $60,000) ÷ (8 years)

= ($480,000) ÷ (8 years)  

= $60,000

In this method, the depreciation is the same for all the remaining useful life

We simply used the above formula
