On January 1, 2016, Debra Company purchased a building and machinery that have the following useful lives, salvage value, and costs.

Building, 25-year estimated useful life, $9,130,000 cost, $913,000 salvage value

Machinery, 10-year estimated useful life, $1,500,000 cost, no salvage value

The building has been depreciated under the straight-line method through 2020. In 2021, the company decided to switch to the double-declining balance method of depreciation for the building. Debra also decided to change the total useful life of the machinery to 8 years, with a salvage value of $75,000 at the end of that time. The machinery is depreciated using the straight-line method.
