Answer:
$5,910.50
Explanation:
Net income = Dividends + Addition to retained earnings
Net income = $2,420 + $4,500
Net income = $6,920
Taxable income = Net income / (1 - Tax rate)
Taxable income = $6,920 / (1 - 0.21)
Taxable income = $6,920 / 0.79
Taxable income = 8759.4937
Taxable income = $8,759.50
EBIT = Taxable income + Interest
EBIT = $8,759.50 + $2,130
EBIT = $10,889.50
Depreciation = Sales - Costs - EBIT
Depreciation = $68,500 - $51,700 - $10,889.50
Depreciation = $5,910.50
So, the depreciation expense for Ted’s Dread Co is $5,910.50.
