Solutions

Expert Solution

Answer: Option b $55,200

Double declining Balance depreciation = 2 × Straight-line depreciation rate × Book value at the beginning of the year
Depreciation rate = 100% / Life of the Asset
                                     = 100%/5
                                     =20%

Depreciation on 01 January 2018 = 2 * 20% * $230,000 = $92,000

Book value of Equioment on January 01 2018 = $230,000 - $92,000 = $138,000

Depreciation for the calender year 2018 = $138,000 * 2* 20% = $55,200
