Analyze each of the following independent scenarios:

a. Equipment that cost $44,000 had an estimated useful life of six years and a salvage value of $2,000. After five years of using straight-line depreciation, the company sold the equipment for $9,500.

b. A computer system that cost $95,000 had an estimated useful life of four years and no salvage value. After two years of using double-declining balance depreciation, the company sold the computer system for $40,000.

c. A company truck that cost $32,000 had an estimated useful life of six years and a salvage value of $2,000. After five years of using straight-line depreciation and driving the truck many miles on tough terrain, the company sold the completely worn-out truck for $750 for spare parts.

d. An asset that cost $35,000 had an estimated useful life of five years and a salvage value of $2,500. After three years of using double-declining balance depreciation, the company sold the asset for $7,500.
