Archy [21]

Answer:

The amount of loss should Jacob Inc. record on December 31, 2019 is $38,000

Explanation:

Truck Value = $48,000

Annual depreciation = ( $48,000 - $8,000) / 8 = $40,000 / 8= $5,000

First year (2018) = $40,000 - $5,000 = $35,000

Second year (2019) = $35,000 - $5,000 = $30,000

Loss = Truck Value (actual) + estimated residual value= $30,000 + $8,000 = $38,000
