On December 31, 2012, before the books were closed, the management and accountants of Madrasa Inc. made the following determinations about three depreciable assets.

1.	Depreciable asset A was purchased January 2, 2009. It originally cost $460,000 and, for depreciation purposes, the straight-line method was originally chosen. The asset was originally expected to be useful for 10 years and have a zero salvage value. In 2012, the decision was made to change the depreciation method from straight-line to sum-of-the-years’ digits, and the estimates relating to useful life and salvage value remained unchanged.
2.	Depreciable asset B was purchased January 3, 2008. It originally cost $244,500 and, for depreciation purposes, the straight-line method was chosen. The asset was originally expected to be useful for 15 years and have a zero salvage value. In 2012, the decision was made to shorten the total life of this asset to 9 years and to estimate the salvage value at $2,700.
3.	Depreciable asset C was purchased January 5, 2008. The asset’s original cost was $122,300, and this amount was entirely expensed in 2008. This particular asset has a 10-year useful life and no salvage value. The straight-line method was chosen for depreciation purposes.

Additional data:

1.	Income in 2012 before depreciation expense amounted to $424,000.
2.	Depreciation expense on assets other than A, B, and C totaled $54,400 in 2012.
3.	Income in 2011 was reported at $409,000.
4.	Ignore all income tax effects.
5.	101,400 shares of common stock were outstanding in 2011 and 2012.
