Depreciation under Straight-line method = (Cost - Salvage value) / Estimated useful life
= ($519,400 - $11,400) / 10
= $50,800
Accumulated depreciation for 7 years = $50,800 * 7 = $355,600
Book value after 7 years = Cost - Accumulated depreciation
= $519,400 - $355,600
= $163,800
Revised remaining useful life = 15 - 7 = 8 years
Revised salvage value = $4,200
Depreciation = (Book value - Revised salvage value) / Revised remaining useful life
= ($163,800 - $4,200) / 8
= $19,950
