Using the Base Case, calculate total depreciation expense for the year 2023E. Assume that depreciation expense on assets pre-2020E is $15,000 per year. Depreciation on capital expenditures made from 2020E-2024E assumes a 4-year useful life and a salvage value equal to 10% of the original cost. Review Later
a) $19,500
b) $33,000
c) $30,000
d) $20,000

b) $33,000

Explanation:

Capital Expenditure = $20,000

Salvage Value in % = 10%

Useful Life = 4 Years

Salvage Value = Salvage Value% * Capital Expenditure

Salvage Value = 10% * 20,000

Salvage Value = $2,000

Annual Depreciation = (Capital Expenditures - Salvage Value) / Useful Life

Annual Depreciation = ($20,000 - $2,000) / 4

Annual Depreciation = $18,000 / 4

Annual Depreciation = $4,500

Depreciation of 2023E = Depreciation Pre 2020E + Depreciation on capital expenditures in 2020E + Depreciation on capital expenditures in 2021E + Additional Depreciation on capital expenditures in 2022E + Additional Depreciation on capital expenditures in 2023E

Depreciation of 2023E = $15,000 + $4,500 + $4,500 + $4,500 + $4,500

Depreciation of 2023E = $33,000
