On December 31, 2017, before the books were closed, the management and accountants of Headland Inc. made the following determinations about three pieces of equipment.

1.		Equipment A was purchased January 2, 2014. It originally cost $537,000 and, for depreciation purposes, the straight-line method was originally chosen. The asset was originally expected to be useful for 10 years and have a zero salvage value. In 2017, the decision was made to change the depreciation method from straight-line to sum-of-the-years-digits, and the estimates relating to useful life and salvage value remained unchanged.
2.		Equipment B was purchased January 3, 2013. It originally cost $180,000 and, for depreciation purposes, the straight-line method was chosen. The asset was originally expected to be useful for 15 years and have a zero residual value. In 2017, the decision was made to shorten the total life of this asset to 9 years and to estimate the residual value at $2,900.
3.		Equipment C was purchased January 5, 2013. The assets original cost was $160,300, and this amount was entirely expensed in 2013. This particular asset has a 10-year useful life and no residual value. The straight-line method was chosen for depreciation purposes.
