The question is: what will be depreciated to the asset account and what will the next year depreciation charge be?
From my under standing: revalued by $600,000 means the assets will now have a carrying of: (800,000 – 560,000) + 600,000 which is now $840,000.
Depreciation by straight line for 5 years results a depreciation charge of $168,000 each year.
A debit of $40,000 to the asset account results in $840,000, the new carrying figure above? I still don’t get this part? Really appreciate if anybody can help me with this.
