Taxes

2

Variables

P = Purchase price

F = Salvage Value

Zero for tax purposes

N = Recovery period (years)

Set by code for tax purposes

Kimberly Baylor Bivins - Adjunct Professor Spr2020

3

Variables

Rm = Percentage of depreciation taken in year m

Dm = Depreciation for year m

BVm = Book value at the end of year m

Book value equals the purchase price less the depreciation recorded to date

Kimberly Baylor Bivins - Adjunct Professor Spr2020

4

Straight-Line

Depreciates uniformly over the life of the asset

Annual depreciation

Dm = (P – F)/N

Book Value

BVm = P – m(Dm)

-or-

BVm = BVm-1 – Dm

5 1/5 20,000 10,000

Sum-of-the-Years

Accelerates depreciation

Annual depreciation

Dm = (P – F)Rm

Rm = (N – m + 1)/SOY

SOY = N(N + 1)/2

Book Value

BVm = BVm-1 – Dm

Declining-Balance Method

Accelerates depreciation

Annual depreciation

Dm = (BVm-1)Rm

Rm = 2.00/N for 200% declining-balance

Rm = 1.50/N for 150% declining-balance

Book Value

BVm = BVm-1 – Dm

Kimberly Baylor Bivins - Adjunct Professor Spr2020

9

Declining-Balance Method

Does not automatically reach salvage value

Must stop depreciation at salvage value when book value goes below salvage value

- or -

Must switch to straight-line depreciation when the straight-line depreciation for the remaining years is greater than declining-balance depreciation

Use of Depreciation Tables

Find correct table

Find correct recovery period for asset across top of table

Percentages are percentage of asset value depreciated during the year

not the percent of the previous year’s book value
