JEL, which has a December 31 year end, began 2020 with a single piece of equipment that had been purchased on January 1, 2017, for $32,000 and a truck that had been purchased on January 1, 2019, for $40,000. When the equipment was purchased, JEL's management had estimated that the equipment would have a residual value of $5,000 and a useful life of six years.
