    A) accessory equipment.

    Explanation:

    Accessory equipment is equipment that is fixed on a place or fixed to other equipment. If the accessory equipment is removed, the original equipment will continue to function as it did before. They must be depreciated since they cannot be expensed.

    In this case, the fax machines work along side the telephones of Sumitomo bank and if removed, the telephones would still work. The IRS classifies fax machines as part of office furniture, fixture and equipment, and establishes a 7 year depreciation period.
