Answer 1

1. Depreciation for 2nd year= $ 3600
Notes:
1. Calculation of Depreciation (Double Declining Balance Method)
Year	Cost/Opening balance	Depreciation	Closing Balance
1	$15,000	$6,000	$9,000.0
		(15000*40%)
2	$9,000.0	$3,600	$5,400.0
		(9000*40%)

Depreciation rat as per straight Line method=	1/Life of asset
	1/5
	20%
Depreciation rate as per Double declining method=	Depreciation rat as per straight Line method*2
	20%*2
	40%
Depreciation as per Double declining method is calculated by doubling that rate of straight line Depreciation method. However , depreciation is calculated on the opening balance of the year i.e. after deducting depreciation
