    The new bus is rolling stock asset

    depreciation is $8,000

    Explanation:

    Rolling stock asset in the U. S is a conveyance vehicle such a buses, vans, locomotives, ferryboats and so on.

    annual depreciation = (cost-salvage value) / useful life

    cost of the new bus is $95,000

    salvage value is $15,000

    useful life is 10 years

    yearly depreciation charge = ($95,000-$15,000) / 10 years

    =$8,000

    Note that the $10,000 trade-in value is relevant when computing the cash payable to the car dealer, it is not deducted here since it forms part of asset cost.
