The Weiss Company purchased a truck for $95,000 on January 2, 2011. The truck was estimated to have a $3,000 salvage value and a four-year life. The truck was depreciated using the straight-line method. During 2013, it was obvious that the truck's total useful life would be six years rather than four and the salvage at the end of the sixth year would be $1,500.
