    Depreciation Question
    Fred's, Inc. purchased machinery at a cost of $20,000 on January 1, 2009. The expected useful life is 5 years and the asset is expected to have salvage value of $1,000. Fred's depreciates its assets via the double-declining balance method.

    What is the firm's gain or loss if the machinery is sold for $10,000 on December 31, 2010?
