Expenditures after Acquisition}

Pasta, a restaurant specializing in fresh pasta, installed a pasta cooker in early 2016 at a cost of \(\$ 12,400\). The cooker had an estimated life of five years and an estimated residual value of \(\$ 900\) when installed. As the restaurant's business increased, it became apparent that renovations would be necessary so that the cooker's output could be increased. In January 2019, Pasta spent \(\$ 8,200\) to install new heating equipment and \(\$ 4,100\) to add pressure-cooking capability. After these renovations, Pasta estimated that the remaining useful life of the cooker was 10 years and that the residual value was now \(\$ 1,500\).
