GinnyAnswer
To find the closing balance of the accumulated depreciation account, we need to consider the starting balance and any additional depreciation recorded during the period.

- The initial balance as of January 1, 2012, is [tex]$1,000. - Additional depreciation recorded on December 31, 2012, is $[/tex]2,000.

To find the closing balance, we add the initial balance and the depreciation amount:

[tex]\[ 1,000 + 2,000 = 3,000 \][/tex]

Therefore, the closing balance of the accumulated depreciation account is [tex]\( \boxed{3000} \)[/tex].
