In early July 2017, the resort expanded operations and purchased additional equipment for cash at a cost of $109,000. The company depreciates buildings by the straight-line method over 20 years with residual value of $84,000. Due to obsolescence, the equipment has a useful life of only 10 years and is being depreciated by the double-declining-balance method with zero residual value.
Requirements
