Explanation:

Equipment $59,000  

Accumulated Depreciation – Equipment $9,600  

Useful life of 7 years  

Salvage value of $2,500  

Annual Depreciation updated  

$59,000 - $9,600 - $2,500 = $,9380  

To find the revised annual depreciation we have to deduct of the total equipment the accumulated depreciation Year to Date.      

$59,000 - $9,600 = $49,400      

At this value we have to substract the Salvage Value of the equipment,    

$49,400 - $2,500 = $46,900
