### Depreciation Expense Calculation ExampleOn October 1, 2022, Blossom Company places a new asset into service. The cost of the asset is $101,500 with an estimated 5-year life and a $20,500 salvage value at the end of its useful life. What is the depreciation expense for 2022 if Blossom Company uses the straight-line method of depreciation?**Options:**- $5075- $20300- $4050- $10150#### ExplanationTo calculate the annual depreciation expense using the straight-line method, we use the following formula:\[ \text{Annual Depreciation Expense} = \frac{\text{Cost of Asset} - \text{Salvage Value}}{\text{Useful Life}} \]Substituting the given values:\[ \text{Annual Depreciation Expense} = \frac{101500 - 20500}{5} = \frac{81000}{5} = 16200 \]Since the asset was placed into service on October 1, 2022, it will be depreciated for only 3 months in the year 2022 (October, November, and December). The proportional depreciation expense for 2022 is calculated as follows:\[ \text{Proportional Depreciation Expense for 2022} = \text{Annual Depreciation Expense} \times \frac{3}{12} \]Again, substituting the values we have:\[ \text{Proportional Depreciation Expense for 2022} = 16200 \times \frac{3}{12} = 4050 \]Therefore, the correct answer is:- **$4050**

The amount of expense to be charged for the year will be calculated on time basis.
