    2018 forecasted depreciation expense = 2065 thousand

    so correct option is D. $2,065 thousand

    Explanation:

    given data

    2017 2016

    Total revenue $102,500 $99,400

    gross 41,300 38,700

    net 16,540 14,905

    Depreciation expense 1,935 1,655

    revenue growth = 5 %

    to find out

    2018 forecasted depreciation expense

    solution

    we know here Depreciation expense for 2017 is = 1935

    and Divide by Property, plant, equipment, gross 2016 is = 38700

    and Depreciation rate for 2017 = 5.00%

    Property, plant, equipment, gross 2017 = 41300

    Depreciation rate = 5.00%

    so for 2018 forecasted depreciation expense is

    2018 forecasted depreciation expense = gross 2017 * Depreciation rate ... 1

    2018 forecasted depreciation expense = 41300 * 5%

    2018 forecasted depreciation expense = 2065 thousand

    so correct option is D. $2,065 thousand
