Answer 1

Answer:

Depreciation - $60 000 Rent Expense - $80000 Bad Debts - $32000

Explanation:

For Depreciation we use the original depreciation cost of 120000 x 0,50 ( original cost ) = 60 000.

Rent expense we use the average for the current year since the rent expense applies to the entire year. The same applies to the bad debts. The average for 20x5 is 0.40

Rent Expense - 200000 x 0.40 = 80000

Bad Debts - 80000 x 0.40 = 32000
