On December 31, 2010, before the books were closed, the management and accountants of Madrasa Inc. made the following determinations about three depreciable assets.

Depreciable asset A was purchased January 2, 2007. It originally cost $540,000 and, for depreciation purposes, the straight-line method was originally chosen. The asset was originally expected to be useful for 10 years and have a zero salvage value. In 2010, the decision was made to change the depreciation method from straight- line to sum-of-the-years'-digits, and the estimates relating to useful life and salvage value remained unchanged.

Depreciable asset B was purchased January 3, 2006. It originally cost $180,000 and, for depreciation purposes, the straight-line method was chosen. The asset was originally expected to be useful for 15 years and have a zero salvage value. In 2010, the decision was made to shorten the total life of this asset to 9 years and to estimate the salvage value at $3,000.

Depreciable asset C was purchased January 5, 2006. The asset's original cost was $160,000, and this amount was entirely expensed in 2006. This particular asset has a 10-year useful life and no salvage value. The straight-line method was chosen for depreciation purposes.
Additional data:

Income in 2010 before depreciation expense amounted to $400,000.
Depreciation expense on assets other than A, B, and C totaled $55,000 in 2010.
Income in 2009 was reported at $370,000.
