Respuesta :

Answer:

EOM depreciation expense $100

accumulated depreciation $100

Explanation:

Depreciation is a method used in expensing the cost of an asset.

Yearly Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

($3750 - $150) / 3 = $1200

Monthly depreciation = yearly depreciation / 12

1200 /12 = 100

Accumulated depreciation is sum of depreciation expense
