depreciation in 2021 would be= $82,000

Explanation:

Depreciation  incurrred in 2019:

Using straight line depreciation = original cost - salvage value / useful life

=(400,000-40,000)/10

=$36,000

The depreciation from January 1, 2019 to December 31st 2020 = 2 years

therefore depreciation  for the two years = $36,000 x 2 = $72,000

Book value recorded early 2021= Original cost - the A ccumulated Deprecaition

= 400,000- 72,000= $328,000

But Remaining useful life =4 years with no salvge value

Therefore depreciation in 2021 would be  = Cost - salvage value / useful life

($328,000 - 0)/4

= $82,000
