    The answer is B. $10,000

    Explanation:

    Straight-line depreciation method equals:

    [Historical cost of the asset - salvage value (if any) ] : useful number of years of the asset.

    Historical cost of the asset = $33,000

    Salvage value = $3,000

    Useful life = 3 years

    = ($33,000 - $3,000) : 3 years

    =$10,000

    So the amount of depreciation that will be recorded during 2018 using the straight-line method is $10,000
