A number of major structural repairs completed at the beginning of the current fiscal year at a cost of $1,000,000 are expected to extend the life of a building 10 years beyond the original estimate. The original cost of the building was $6,552,000, and it has been depreciated by the straight-line method for 25 years. Estimated residual value is negligible and has been ignored. The related accumulated depreciation account after the depreciation adjustment at the end of the preceding fiscal year is $4,550,000.
