Question

The double-declining-balance rate for calculating depreciation expense is determined by doubling the straight-line rate. Assuming that an asset has a useful life of 25 years, determine the rate to be used if using the double-declining-balance method

Answer 1

Answer:

the  depreciation rate in cash when the double-declining method should be used is 8%

Explanation:

The computation of the depreciation rate in cash when the double-declining method should be used is given below:

= 1 ÷ useful life × 2

= 1 ÷ 25 × 2

= 0.08

= 8%

Hence, the  depreciation rate in cash when the double-declining method should be used is 8%

The same should be relevant and considered too
