Based on the cost of the furniture, the following are true:

  • a. $10,400.
  • b. $93,600
  • c. $20,800

Depreciation in second year

Depreciation per year = (Cost of furniture - Salvage value) / Useful life

Cost will include both the purchase price and the charge for insurance and shipping.

= (100,000 + 12,000 - 8,000) / 10

= $10,400

BV at end of first year

= Cost - Depreciation

= 104,000 - 10,400

= $93,600

BV after 8 years

= Cost - (Depreciation x 8 years )

= 104,000 - (10,400 x 8)

= $20,800

In conclusion, depreciation is $10,400 per year.
