What is the under estimated capital cost of $800,000 asset
after five CCA calculations of 30% declining balance, with the
half-year rule?
A. $0
B. $240,000
C. $163,268
D. $145,564
CCA for first year(half year)=$800,000×15%=$120,000
CCA for second year=($800,000-$120,000)×30%=$680,000×30%=$204,000
CCA for third year=($680,000-$204,000)×30%=$476,000×30%=$142,800
CCA for fourth year=($476,000-$142,800)×30%=$333,200×30%=$99,960
CCA for fifth year=($333,200-$99,960)×30%=$233,240×30%=$69,972
Estimated capital cost after five years=$233,240-$69,972=$163,268
Option C is correct that is $163,268
