Bridgeport Corp. reported net income of $55,750. Depreciation expense for the year was $121,500. The company calculates depreciation expense using the straight-line method, with a useful life of 10 years. Top management would like to switch to a 15-year useful life because depreciation expense would be reduced to $76,500. The CEO says, Increasing the useful life would increase net income and net cash provided by operating activities. Provide a comparative analysis showing net income and net cash provided by operating activities (ignoring other accrual adjustments) using a 10-year and a 15-year useful life. (Ignore income taxes.)
