Annual depreciation expense on a building purchased a few years ago (using the straight-line method) is $4,800. The cost of the building was $96,000. The current book value of the equipment (January 1, 2021) is $81,600. At the time of purchase, the asset was estimated to have a zero salvage value. On January 1, 2021, the company decided to reduce the original useful life by 25% and to establish a salvage value of $4,800. The firm also decided double-declining-balance depreciation was more appropriate. Ignore tax effects.
