Respuesta :

Answer:

Depreciation = $24900

Explanation:

Below is the calculation of depreciation:

Cost of equipment = $135000

Salvage value = $10500

Useful life = 5 years

Depreciation = (Cost of machine - salvage value) / useful life

Depreciation = (135000 - 10500) / 5  

Depreciation = $24900
