Answer and Explanation:

The Journal entry is shown below:-

Depreciation expense Dr, $1,270

To Accumulated depreciation $1,270

(Being depreciation expenses is recorded)

Working note

Depreciation per year using SLM = (Cost - Salvage value) : Useful life

= ($15,400 - $2,700) : 10

= $12,700 : 10

= $1,270

For recording the depreciation expenses we simply debited the Depreciation expense and credited the accumulated expenses.
