    Dereciation expense for the year is $79800

    Explanation:

    The depreciation expense will be calculated on the value of machine that is eligible for depreciation. The value can be calculated by deducting the salvage value from the cost.

    The depreciable value = 560000 - 28000 = $532000

    The depreciation expense for the year will be based on 1500 hours. The total hours over the useful life is 10000 hours.

    Depreciation expense for the year = 532000 * 1500 / 10000 = $79800
