    The depreciation expense for 2017 is $14,400

    Explanation:

    Coronado Industries uses the units-of-production depreciation method to calculate Coronado Industries by the following formula:

    Depreciation Expense = [ (Cost of asset - Residual Value) x Number of Units Produced]/Life in Number of Units

    In the company,

    Depreciation Expense per mile = ($108,800-$3,000) / 132,250 = $0.8

    The truck was 18000 miles in 2017, so the depreciation expense for 2017:

    18,000 x $0.8 = $14,400
