Answer:

(D) Annual depreciation will be $11000

And book value will be $38000

Explanation:

We have given Kansas purchased equipment for $60000

So Acquisition cost = $60000

Residual value = $5000

We know that annual depreciation is given by

Life time = 5 years

Annual depreciation expense [tex]=\frac{Acquisition\ cost-residual\ value}{life\ time}=\frac{$60000-$5000}{5}=$11000[/tex]

Depreciation expense is the same every year under straight-line. Therefore, in 2013 the depreciation expense is $11,000

Book value is given by

Book value =  Acquisition Cost - Accumulated Depreciation

= [tex]60000-2\times (110000)=$38000[/tex]

The Book Value of the asset is therefore $38,000 after 2 years of service
