Answer:

Cost of Truck = $120,000

Residual Value = $5,300

Useful Life = 37,000 miles

a. Depreciable Cost = Cost of Truck - Residual Value

Depreciable Cost = $120,000 - $5,300

Depreciable Cost = $114,700

b. Depreciation Rate = Depreciable Cost / Useful Life

Depreciation Rate = $114,700/37,000 miles

Depreciation Rate = $3.1 per mile

c. Number of miles driven during the year = 3,300

Depreciation for the Year = Depreciation Rate * Number of miles driven during the year

Depreciation for the Year = $3.1 per mile * 3,300

Depreciation for the Year = $10,230
