I JUST NEED THE ANSWER, THX.
Three different companies each purchased trucks on January 1,
2018, for $80,000. Each truck was expected to last four years or
250,000 miles. Salvage value was estimated to be $4,000. All three
trucks were driven 78,000 miles in 2018, 55,000 miles in 2019,
50,000 miles in 2020, and 70,000 miles in 2021. Each of the three
companies earned $69,000 of cash revenue during each of the four
years. Company A uses straight-line depreciation, company B uses
double-declining-balance depreciation, and company C uses
units-of-production depreciation.

income taxes.
