1 8/36×72,000 = 16,000 16,000 59,000

2 7/36×72,000 = 14,000 32,000 36,000

3 6/36×72,000 = 12,000 44,000 31,000

4 5/36×72,000 = 10,000 54,000 21,000

5 4/36×72,000 = 8,000 62,000 13,000

6 3/36×72,000 = 6,000 68,000 7,000

7 2/36×72,000 = 4,000 72,000 3,000

8 1/36×72,000 = 2,000 74,000 1,000

Year Depreciation Calculation Accumulated Depreciation Book Value

1 8/36×72,000 = 16,000 16,000 59,000

2 7/36×72,000 = 14,000 32,000 36,000

3 6/36×72,000 = 12,000 44,000 31,000

6 3/36×72,000 = 6,000 68,000 7,000

7 2/36×72,000 = 4,000 72,000 3,000

8 1/36×72,000 = 2,000 74,000 1,000
