Flanders Company purchased an asset on January 1, 2021 for $60,000. The asset has an estimated salvage value of $3,000. Its estimated useful life is 8 years. What is the balance in accumulated depreciation using the straight-line method at December 31, 2022?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$14,250

Explanation:

Annual depreciation = (Cost - Salvage value) / Useful Life

Annual depreciation = ($60,000 - $3,000) / 8

Annual depreciation = $57,000 / 8

Annual depreciation = $7,125

Accumulated dep. at December 31, 2022 = $7,125 * 2

Accumulated dep. at December 31, 2022 = $14,250

So, the balance in accumulated depreciation using the straight-line method at December 31, 2022 is $14,250.
