XYZ Corporation purchased a machine at the beginning of 2005 for $250,000. The machine was being depreciated using the straight-line method over an estimated life of 25 years, with a $40,000 salvage value. At the beginning of 2015, the company paid $60,000 to overhaul the machine. As a result of this improvement, the company estimated that the useful life of the machine would be extended an additional 6 years, and the salvage value would be reduced to $30,000. Compute the depreciation charge for 2015.
