 Comportent A: $198,000Component B: $240,000\begin{array}{llcc} \text { Comportent A: } &\$198,000 \\ \text {Component B: } &\$240,000\\\end{array}


Component A is expected to have a useful life of 5 years and a residual value of $ 20,000 before the first major overhaul is required. Component B is expected to have a useful life of 7 years and a residual value of $ 15,000 before its first overhaul. Kenya uses straight-line depreciation for all its equipment. At the beginning of year 6, component A undergoes a major overhaul at a cost of 100,000. The work is expected to extend its life by 3 years, but the residual value will then be zero. What is the net book value of component A one year after the overhaul?
