Think Break #14 Answer Double declining balance depreciation rate RDB = 2 x (1/3) = 2/3 (= 66.67%) 1) Year 1 Depreciation = $7,000 x 2/3 = $4,667 2) Ending basis in 1st year = $7,000 – $4,667 = $2,333 3) Year 2 Depreciation = $2,333 x 2/3 = $1,555 4) Ending basis in 2nd year = $ 2,333 – $1,555 = $788

Think Break #14 Answer Cannot take $1,555 depreciation in year 2 since implies ending basis < salvage value Set year 2 depreciation so asset fully depreciated during year 2 3) Year 2 Depreciation $2,333 – $1,333 = $1,000 Depreciation = $1,333 4) Ending basis in 2nd year = $ 2,333 – $1,333 = $1,000
