Compute the depreciation expense for 2028.
First, calculate the book value at the beginning of 2028: Book value at beginning of 2028=Book value at beginning of 2027Depreciation expense for 2027 \text{Book value at beginning of 2028} = \text{Book value at beginning of 2027} - \text{Depreciation expense for 2027} =45,00018,000=27,000 = 45,000 - 18,000 = 27,000
Then, calculate the depreciation expense for 2028: Depreciation expense for 2028=Rate×Book value at beginning of 2028 \text{Depreciation expense for 2028} = \text{Rate} \times \text{Book value at beginning of 2028} =0.4×27,000=10,800 = 0.4 \times 27,000 = 10,800
The depreciation expenses are: - Depreciation expense for 2027: \$18,000 - Depreciation expense for 2028: \$10,800
