What is the depreciation expense in year 1?

Depreciation is a method that is used to expense the carrying value of an asset. Straight line depreciation is a depreciation method that allocates the deprecation expense evenly across the useful life of the asset.  

Straight line depreciation expense is a function of the useful life of the asset, the cost of the asset and the salvage value of the asset.

Straight line depreciation expense = (number of months from Sept to Dec / number of months in a year) x (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

(3/12) x [(28,400 - 3900) / 5]

1/4 x (24,500/5) = $1225
