Explanation / Answer

Hi,


Please find the answer as follows:


Part 1:


Depreciation for 2012 = (396625 - 31040)/8*(3/12) = 11425


Part 2:


Depreciation for 2012 = (396625 - 31040)/(39100)*1100 = 10285


Part 3:


Depreciation for 2012 = (396625 - 31040)/(19400)*540 = 10176


Part 4:


Depreciation for 2014 = (396625 - 31040)*6/36 = 60931


Part 5:


Depreciation Rate = 1/8*2 = 25%


Depreciation for 2012 = 396625*25%*3/12 = 27489


Depreciation for 2013 = (399625 - 27489)*25% = 93034



Thanks.
