Exercise 11-7 (Algo) Depreciation methods; partial periods [LO11-2]

On March 31, 2021, Susquehanna Insurance purchased an office building for $12,600,000. Based on their relative fair values, one-third of the purchase price was allocated to the land and two-thirds to the building. Furniture and fixtures were purchased separately from office equipment on the same date for $1,220,000 and $720,000, respectively. The company uses the straight-line method to depreciate its buildings and the double-declining-balance method to depreciate all other depreciable assets. The estimated useful lives and residual values of these assets are as follows:

	Service Life	Residual Value
Building	30	5% of cost
Furniture and fixtures	10	5% of cost
Office equipment	5	$32,000

Required: Calculate depreciation for 2021 and 2022
