    Answer and Explanation:

    The computation is shown below:

    = (Original cost - residual value) : (useful life)

    = ($52,000 - $8,000) : (4 years)

    = ($44000) : (4 years)

    = $11,000

    In this method, the depreciation is same for all the remaining useful life

    a. The depreciation expense for 2019 is $11,000

    b. The depreciation expense for 2020 is $11,000

    c. The accumulated depreciation for year 2019 is $11,000

    d. The accumulated depreciation for year 2020 is $22,000 ($11,000 + $11,000)

    e. The book value is

    = Original cost - accumulated depreciation

    = $52,000 - $22,000

    = $30,000
