    Net yearly income = $44,800

    Explanation:

    Depreciation can be defined as a reduction in the value of an asset over a certain period that is referred to as its useful life.

    Depreciation expense reduces yearly income.

    The yearly depreciation can be compared to yearly Revenue earned by its use to get net income.

    Depreciation = (Value of asset - Salvage value) : Number of useful years

    Depreciation = (530,000 - 12,000) : 5

    Depreciation = $103,600

    The yearly Revenue generated by using the asset is $148,400

    Net yearly income = Increased cash flow - Depreciation

    Net yearly income = 148,400 - 103,600

    Net yearly income = $44,800
