Hulteen Hardware purchased a new building on January 1, 2013, for $1.5 million. The company expects the building to last 25 years and expects to be able to sell it then for $150,000. During 2018, the building was painted at a cost of $5,000. Almost ten years after acquiring the building, the roof was destroyed by a storm. The company had a new roof constructed at a cost of $200,000. The new roof was completed on January 1, 2023, and it extended the estimated life of the building by five years, to a total of 30 years. All other estimates are still accurate. Hulteen Hardware uses the straight-line method to depreciate the cost of all fixed assets.
