Visual Basic
For tax purposes an item may be depreciated over a period of several years, n.
With the straight line method of depreciation, each year the item depreciates by 1/nth of its
original value. With the double declining balance method of depreciation, each year the item
depreciates by 2/nths of its value at the beginning of that year. (In the final year it is depreciated
by its value at the beginning of the year.)
