Question:

Hope Hospital purchased a special X-ray machine. The machine, which cost $311,560, was expected to last ten years, with an estimated residual value of $31,560.

The estimated residual value, however, remain the same. Given this information, determine the new depreciation charge for the third year on the basis of the revised estimated useful life.
