Calculate the maximum depreciation expense (ignoring §179 and bonus depreciation).

The maximum depreciation expense is $2,792

Explanation:

In order to calculate the maximum depreciation expense we would have to calculate the depreciation of service computer equipment and the service furniture as follows:

depreciation of service computer equipment=$15,500*5%

depreciation of service computer equipment=$775

depreciation of service furniture=$11,300*17.85%

depreciation of service furniture=$2,017

Therefore, maximum depreciation expense=depreciation of service computer equipment+depreciation of service furniture

maximum depreciation expense=$775+$2,017

maximum depreciation expense=$2,792
