Explanation / Answer

a. answer is $6500 Depreciation expense       = ${(62000 + $8000 + $3000) - $8000} / 10 2010       = $6,500 b. Depreciation rate = 2* 1/10 = 20% Depreciation expense     2009        = $73000 * 20%        = $14,600 2010        = ($73000 -$14600) * 20%        = $11,680 c Acquisition cost of truck   = $62000 + $8000 + $3000       = $73,000 d. Expensed 2009       = $2400 (insurance) + $400(regeistration)       = $2,900
