Answer:
d. $5,000
Explanation:
Patnode's information is missing, so I looked it up. I found the balance sheet for 2014 and 2015. Hope that it is the same question:
total depreciation expense for 2015 = change in accumulated depreciation (2015 - 2014) + change in accumulated amortization (2015 - 2014) = ($3,000 - $0) + ($3,000 - $1,000) = $3,000 + $2,000 = $5,000
