    The amount of accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2023 is $6,375

    Explanation:

    Sheridan Company uses the straight-line depreciation, Depreciation Expense each year is calculated by following formula:

    Annual Depreciation Expense = (Cost of delivery truck - Salvage Value) / Useful Life = ($36,000-$2,000) / 8 = $4,250

    Depreciation Expense in 2022 = ($4,250/12) x 6 = $2,125

    Depreciation Expense in 2023 = $4,250

    Accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2023 = Depreciation Expense in 2022 + Depreciation Expense in 2023 = $2,125 + $4,250 = $6,375
