    Year-1 Depreciation Expense

    $2,000

    Formula

    Straight line: (Cost − Salvage) / Useful life. DDB: Book value × Factor/Useful life (floored at salvage).

    Pro tips

    • • Accelerated methods front-load expense, lowering near-term taxable profit; total depreciation is identical either way.
    • • Salvage value can be zero, but DDB will never depreciate an asset below it.
