Explanation:

Note : I will assume the straight line method for all the assets above for depreciation purposes.

therefore,

Depreciation = Cost - Salvage Value ÷ Useful Life

Machinery

Annual Depreciation = $7,300

Accumulated Depreciation to date of disposal = $73,000

Forklift

Annual Depreciation = $6,400 ($3,200 for 2022)

Accumulated Depreciation to date of disposal = $22,400

Truck

Annual Depreciation = $4,425

Accumulated Depreciation to date of disposal = $26,550
