    Instructions are below.

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Purchasing price = $157,000.

    The estimated service life of the equipment is 10 years.

    Residual value = $3,000

    To calculate the depreciation expense under the straight-line method, we need to use the following formula:

    Annual depreciation = (original cost - salvage value) / estimated life (years)

    Annual depreciation = (157,000 - 3,000) / 10

    Annual depreciation = 15,400

    2021:

    Annual depreciation = (15,400/12) * 3 = $3,850

    2022:

    Annual depreciation = 15,400
