Answer:
Piper should report $308,000 as net income for the year . Option C
Explanation:
Accumulated Depreciation till 2014 = [$600,000×(5+4+3)] ÷ 15 = $ 480,000
Book Value at beginning 2015 = $600,000 - $480,000 = $120,000
Depreciation Expense in 2015 = $120,000 ÷ 2 = $60,000
Net Income before depreciation & taxes = $ 500,000
Depreciation = $ 60,000
Electronic Benefits Transfer = Net Income before depreciation & taxes - Depreciation 
= $ 500,000  - $ 60,000  
=$ 440000
Tax Expenses = $440,000 × 30% = $132,000
Net Income =$ 308,000
