involving accounting
changes. Each change occurs during 2016 before any adjusting

to relocate the
company headquarters at the end of 2020. The vacated office
building will have a
salvage value at that time of $700,000.
b. At the beginning of 2013, the Hoffman Group purchased office
equipment at a cost of
$330,000. Its useful life was estimated to be 10 years with no
salvage value. The

2016, the company changed to the straight-line method.
Instructions:

change in the
