Factory

Unit-of production
Machinery's estimated total production capacity is 50,000 units of cars. During 2023, GM produced a total of 10,000 units using the Machinery.
On Dec 31, 2023, sudden changes in the operational and market conditions indicate that the sum of undiscounted future cash flows from the factory is
now estimated at $1,800,000. The fair value of the Factory as of the date is $1,500,000. After recognizing depreciation expense for 2023 as scheduled,
GM wrote-off the factory. The remaining service life is reduced to additional 5 years and the residual value is updated to $150,000. Depreciation for the
factory using these new parameters will start from 2024 with the double-declining method.
During 2024, GM produced a total of 15,000 units using the Machinery.
What is the total amount of depreciation expense GM will recognize at the end of 2024?
