Answer: 20.6

Explanation:

Depreciation is when the value of an asset decreases with time as a result of usage which has resulted in wear and tear.

In this question, we have been informed that the depreciation is 17.2 and that there is a 20% growth in sales. Therefore, Billy's Burgers' depreciation for 2011 will be:

= 17.2 × (100% + 20%)

= 17.2 × 120%

= 17.2× (120/100)

= 17.2 × 1.2

= 20.64

= 20.6 approximately

Billy's Burgers' depreciation for 2011 will be $20.6 million

The estimation of the Billy's Burgers' depreciation for 2011 is option b $20.6 million.

Calculation of the depreciation;

Since

Depreciation in 2010 = $17.2 million

Growth Rate = 20%

So,

Depreciation in 2011 = Depreciation in 2010 * (1 + Growth Rate)

= $17.2 million * 1.20

= $20.6 million

Therefore,  the estimated depreciation in 2011 is $20.6 million.

Also, depreciation is the non-cash expense that shows on the debit side of the income statement.
