160,000-16,000= 144,000/4= 36,000
a) straight-line amort.
Yr--Dep Exp---Acc. Amort----BV
1---36,000---36,000---124,000
2---36,000---72,000---88,000
3---36,000---108,000---52,000
4---36,000---144,000---16,000
b) DDB method
36,000/144,000 = .25 x 2 = 50%
Yr--Dep Exp---Acc. Amort----BV
1---80,000---80,000---80,000
