Answer:

Annual depreciation= $5,660

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchase price= $25,740

Salvage value= $3,100

First, we need to calculate the accumulated depreciation before the change in useful life:

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation= (25,740 - 3,100) / 8

Annual depreciation= $2,830

Accumulated depreciation= 2,830*4= $11,320

Now, we can calculate the new depreciation expense:

Annual depreciation= (25,740 - 11,320 - 3,100) / 2

Annual depreciation= $5,660
