In case of 5 year property class the recovery period is 6 years and the depreciation rate is 20%, 32%, 19.2%, 11.52%, 11.52% and 5.76% for the six years.

In third year the depreciation rate = 19.2%

b. In case of 3 year property class the recovery period is 4 years and the rate of depreciation is 33.33%, 44.45%, 14.81% and 7.41% for the four years in the given sequence.

Depreciation in the 3rd year = 14.81%

In case of straight line method the recovery period is 4 years and the salvage value = $ 0.

In case of straight line method the depreciation charge is 25% each years.
