    Holmdene will record a depreciation expense of $11000 in 2019

    Explanation:

    The straight line method of depreciation charges a constant depreciation on the asset every year through out the estimated useful life of the asset. The depreciation expense per year under this method is calculated as follows,

    Depreciation Expense per year = (Cost - Residual Value) / Estimated useful life

    Depreciation expense per year = (60000 - 5000) / 5 = $11000 per year
