$5,500.

The calculation is as follows:

First, subtract the salvage value from the cost of the asset: $24,500 - $2,500 = $22,000.

Then, divide this amount by the useful life of the asset: $22,000 / 4 years = $5,500 per year.

So, Peavey Enterprises should recognize a depreciation expense of $5,500 in Year 2.
