9: Depreciation 117
Example: Declining-Balance Depreciation. A metalworking machine,
purchased for $10,000, is to be depreciated over 5 years. Its salvage
value is estimated at $500. Find the depreciation and remaining
depreciable value for each of the first 3 years of the machine’s life using
the double-declining-balance method (200% of the straight-line rate). For
comparison, find the straight-line depreciation, as well.
