double declining method of depreciation is also called accelerated depreciation method of depreciation.
Under which method we have to compute depreciation exactly Double the depreciation under straight line method.,
-and should ignore the salvage value.
-the same depreciation amount will repeated in subsequent years also.
Therefore depreciation formula
=( Book value/useful life of the asset)*2
Given information
Book value of equipment= $560000
Useful life=8 years.
Depreciation value;;(for every year)
=(560000/8)*2
=$140000.
Therefore answer should be third option i.e.,$140000.
Thank you:-)
