- You are to create a year-by-year depreciation schedule for an asset that has a cost basis (B) of $950,000 and estimated salvage value (SV10) of $80,000 after 10 years. For the straight-line and 200% declining balance methods, use a depreciable life (N) of 10 years. For MACRS, use a recovery period (N) of 7-yrs.

- The formula for double-declining-balance depreciation on an asset with a five-year life in its second year is Book Value × 40% = Depreciation Expense. (Book Value – Residual Value) × 40% = Depreciation Expense. (Book Value – Residual Value) × 20% = Depreciation Expense. (Original Cost × 30%) – Residual Value = Depreciation Expense.arrow_forwardCompared to straight-line depreciation for a fixed asset with a 5-year useful life, the depreciation method used by Waren (i.e., the SUA) would result in higher net book value in year 3 for the same fixed asset.
