Question 1

Property and equipment generally reported at its original cost less depreciation since acquisition.

So answer will be A. Historical cost.

Question 2.

Question 3

book value of the assets after life of the assets will be the salvage / residual value only.

In given case salvage value is 0. so answer also 0.

Question 4

Difference between cost of the assets and its salvage value is depreciable base. Under stright line method or sum of the year method or activity based method, depreciation will calculated on depreciable base only.

Cost of the building $ 300,000 Less: Residual value $ (30,000) Depreciable value $ 270,000 Depreciation per year ($270,000/30) $      9,000
