Answer:
2017 = $2,598 and 2018 = $10,390
Explanation:
The computation of the depreciation expense for the second year is shown below:
= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)
= ($80,010 - $7,280) ÷ (7 years)
= ($72,730) ÷ (7 years)
= $10,390
In this method, the depreciation is same for all the remaining useful life
For 2017, the depreciation expense would be
= $10,390 × 3 months ÷ 12 months
= $2,598
The three months is calculated from the October 1, 2017, to December 31, 2017
And, in 2018 it would be $10,390
