The following information related to depreciation of fixed assets is provided to you. 1. Holtzman purchased equipment on January 2, 2016, for $85,000. At that time, the equipment had an estimated useful life of 10 years with a $5,000 residual value. The equipment is depreciated on a straight-line basis. On January 2, 2019, as a result of additional information, the company determined that the equipment has a remaining useful life of 4 years with a $3,000 residual value. 2.
