The two companies are virtually identical, and both have been in operation for one year. In early January 2020 , both companies purchased equipment costing $183,000, with a 10 -year estimated useful life and a $10,000 residual value. Blue Orchid uses the straight-line depreciation method. By contrast, Fast Track uses the double-declining-balance method. Both companies' trial balances at December 31 , 2020 , included the following: Net Sales Revenue Cost of Goods Sold $870,000 410,000 200,000 Requirements 1.
