    Annual depreciation = $14,400

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Purchasing price = $109,600.

    The truck is estimated to have a salvage value of $4000.

    Useful life of 132000 miles. It was driven 18000 miles in Year 7.

    To calculate the depreciation expense, we need to use the units of the production method.

    Annual depreciation = [ (original cost - salvage value) / useful life of production in hours]*hours operated

    In this case, miles driven:

    Annual depreciation = [ (109,600 - 4,000) / 132,000]*18,000 = $14,400
