Explanation / Answer

1.

SLM Depreciation = (180000-10000)/10 = 17000 each year

2.

Year 1 20%*180000 = 36000

Year 2 20%*144000 = 28800

Year 3 20%*115200 = 23040

Year 4 20%*92160 = 18432

Year 5 20%*73728 = 14746

Year 6 and so on ........

3.

Total Units = 550000

Units consumed = 66000

Depreciation = [(180000-10000)/550000]*66000 = 20400
