Last year, the pizza joint added $6,230 to retained earnings from sales of $104,650. the company had costs of $87,300, dividends of $2,500, and interest paid of $1,620. given a tax rate of 34 percent, what was the amount of the depreciation expense

$2,503 = Depreciation Expense

Explanation:

Net profit = $6,230 that is amount added to retained earnings.

Net profit = Sales - Cost - Depreciation - Interest - Taxes - Dividends

Sales = $104,650

Costs = $87,300

Interest = $1,620

Earnings before depreciation and taxes = $104,650 - $87,300 - $1,620 =  $15,730

Earnings after interest depreciation and taxes = $6,230 + $2,500 = Net profit + Dividend = $8,730

Therefore

(15,730 - Depreciation) - (15,730 - Depreciation) 34% = $8,730

$15,730 - Depreciation - ($5,348 - 0.34 Dep) = $8,730

$10,382 - 0.66 Depreciation = $8,730

$1,652 = 0.66 Depreciation

$2,503 = Depreciation Expense
