Togo’s Sandwiches acquired equipment on April 1, 2021, for $17,500. The company estimates a residual value of $1,900 and a five-year service life.
Required:
Calculate depreciation expense using the straight-line method for 2021 and 2022, assuming a December 31 year-end.

$2,340 and $3,120

Explanation:

The computation of the depreciation expense using the straight line method is shown below:

= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)

= ($17,500 - $1,900) ÷ (5 years)

= ($15,600) ÷ (5 years)  

= $3,120

For year 2021, the depreciation is to be charged for 9 months i.e from April 1 to December 31

= $3,120 × 9 months ÷ 12 months

= $2,340

And, for the year 2022, it is same i.e $3,120

In this method, the depreciation is same for all the remaining useful life    

being born in poverty would limit the people's chances, opportunities and benefits.

this happen because of several things, such as:

- poor people tend to gain less access to good education and nutrition. this mean that their chance to obtain high paying jobs would also be limited.

- poor people tend to socialize with other poor people while the rich tend to socialize with other rich people. this means that simply throguh their social circle, rich people would have more business opportunities compared to the poor people.

- rich people tend to have more capital in their disposal. this would benefit them in business since it is far easier for them to fund their business operation compared to poor people.
