YEAR | COST $ | Depreciation Rate | Depreciation $ | Accumulated Depreciation $ | Book Value $ | |
1 | 400000 | 40% | 160000 | 160000 | 240000 | |
2 | 40% | 96000 | 256000 | 144000 | ||
3 | 40% | 57600 | 313600 | 86400 | ||
4 | 40% | 34560 | 348160 | 51840 | ||
5 | 40% | 1840 | 350000 | 50000 | Salvage value |
Explanation:-
Double Declining balance depreciation is calculated using the following formula:
Depreciation = Depreciation Rate * Book Value of Asset |
Depreciation rate is given by the following formula:
Depreciation Rate = Accelerator *Straight Line Rate |
Straight-line Depreciation Rate = 1/5 = 0.20 = 20%
Declining Balance Rate = 2*20% = 40%
