The straight line depreciation expense in 2022 is $1500.

The straight line depreciation expense in 2023 is $3000.

<h3>What is the depreciation expense in 2022 and 2023?</h3>

The striaght line depreciation method spreads out the depreciation expense equally over the useful life of the project.

Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

($32,000 - $4,000) / 8 = $3000

The depreciation expense each year would be $3000 except in 2022 when the truck was used for 6 months.

Depreciation expense in 2022 = 6/12(3000) = $1500
