The Dow Ceramic Company purchased a glass-molding machine in January 2010 for $180,000. The company has been depreciating the machine over an estimated useful life of 10 years, assuming no salvage value, by the straight-line method of depreciation. For tax purposes, the machine has been depreciated as seven-year MACRS property. At the beginning of 2013, Dow overhauled the machine at a cost of $45,000. As a result of the overhaul, Dow estimated that the useful life of the machine would extend live years beyond the original estimate.
