Answer: Straight line method is $7,400 per year.

Double declining balance method is $ 14,800 per year.

Explanation:

Depreciation on a straight line basis is calculated thus:

Cost - Residual value/ useful life

= (36,000 - 6,400)/ 4

= 7,400 per year

Depreciation on double declining method is calculated thus:

100% / useful life

100%/4 = 25

25%*2= 50%

Cost - residual value * 50%

36,000 - 6,400* 50%

29,600* 50%

=$14,800 for the first and second year
