Answer:

$2000

Step-by-step explanation:

van cost = $16000

Estimated life= 4 years

Residual value= $4000

using straight line method of depreciation

Depreciation per year= [tex]\frac{16000-4000}{4}[/tex]= 3000

Therefore book value ater two years = $16000- 2*3000= $10000

Selling price of book after 2 years= $8000

hence the difference between book value and the amount received

10000-8000= $2000
