The depreciation charge in 2021 is $ 164,000.00  

Explanation:

Annual depreciation charge=cost-salvage value/useful life

cost is $610,000

salvage value is $61,000

useful life is 9 years

Annual depreciation charge=($610,000-$61,000)/9=$61000

The depreciation of charge of $61000   is applicable to years 2018 ,2019 and 2020 respectively.

The estimates of the asset changed in the year 2021,hence a new depreciation based on the present book value is required.

revised depreciation charge=$610,000-($61,000*3)-$99,000/(5-3)=

$164,000.00
