4.- Depreciation expense for 2021: 60,000

1.- The change in the useful life does not represent an accounting error. It comes from the estimation process.
800,000 - 160,000 x 2 = 480,000 book value at beginning 2021
480,000 / 8 new useful life = 60,000 depreciation per year.
Answer: a. Liabilities increased by $1.0 million in 2018
Explanation:
In 2018, $9 million was used to settle the wage debt of 2017 and the remainder was used to settle the wages in 2018.
The money remaining in cash after the wage settlement was:
= 9,000,000 - 2,000,000 - 8,000,000
= -$1,000,000
This means that $1,000,000 of wages was not settled in 2018 which means that this would have to go to the Wages Payable account to signify that the company owes wages.
This account is a liability account so liabilities in 2018 would increase by $1,000,000.
