    D) $15,000.

    Explanation:

    190,000 excess of value Building amortized over 10 years: 19,000

    70,000 lesser value on Equipment amortized over 5 years: 14,000

    We will amortize the building at a rate of 19,000 dollar per year

    and we will amortize the equipment at 14,000 per year

    the inventory as still is in the company's possesion will also need to be adjsuted

    10,000 + 19,000 - 14,000 = 15,000
