What’s the depreciation charge Can I know how to solve this kind? I can’t rmb the figure correctly . U can change the figure if the number I provide is invalid

I assume that you found this question in your Revision Kit, in which case you surely have an answer? As at 31 Dec X5, they will have depreciated for 4 years and so the carrying value will be 4,000. If they then revise the residual value to 3,000 and a remaining useful life to 3 years then the depreciation charge will be (4.000 - 3,000) / 3 per year from then on.
