Explain why the two different depreciation methods result in different depreciation schedules. What would you recommend for Chloe and why?

What will be an ideal response?


Straight-line depreciation calculates the depreciation expense as equal across the life of the asset, while the declining balance and double-declining balance methods assume that depreciation is more rapid at the beginning of an asset's life and therefore calculate a higher depreciation expense early in the life of an asset. Chloe should consult with her accountant and follow industry guidelines for the appropriate type of depreciation to use, since all methods are acceptable.
