Answer:

$18,000

Explanation:

1. Figure out the straight-line declining balance by dividing 1 by the number of years of expected life (5). 1/5= 0.20 or 20%.

2. for double-declining-balance, multiply 0.20 * 2 = 0.40

3. Find the depreciation for the first year. $50,000 * 0.40 = $20,000, then subtract $20,000 from $50,000 = $30,000

4. Do the same process for the following years. $30,000 *0.40 = S12,000, $30,000 - $12,000 = $18,000
