Expert Solution
Step 1

Straight line method of Depreciation:

Depreciation and amortisation, often known as the process of expensing an asset over a longer period of time than when it was purchased, are calculated on a straight line basis.
It is determined by multiplying the discrepancy between the asset's estimated salvage value and purchase price by the expected usable life of the asset.
Although it has several faults, straight line foundation is popular because it is simple to compute and understand.
