What is the depreciation charge in the 9th year? (b) Using decline-balance depreciation with d=15%, what is the book value after 4 years for an asset costing $250,000? What is the depreciation charge in the 5th year? (c) What is the depreciation rate using declining-balance for an asset costing $250,000 and having a salvage value of $20,000 after 10 years? Problem #4: Textbook Problem 2.42 A machine costs $500,000 and has a planned life of 30 years, with a salvage value of $50,000 (at the end of 30 years) using straight-line depreciation.
