In $1998,$ Nash Company completed the construction of a building at a cost of $$2,040,000$ and first occupied it in January $1999.$ It

was estimated that the building will have a useful life of $40$ years and a salvage value of $$59,200$ at the end of that time.

Early in $2009,$ an addition to the building was constructed at a cost of $$510,000.$ At that time, it was estimated that the remaining

life of the building would be$,$ as originally estimated, an additional $30$ years, and that the addition would have a life of $30$ years and a

salvage value of $$20,400.$

In $2027,$ it is determined that the probable life of the building and addition will extend to the end of $2058,$ or $20$ years beyond the

original estimate.
