Calculation steps

  1. 1Salvage = 100,000 × 5% = 5,000.00
  2. 2Annual depreciation = (100,000 − 5,000.00) ÷ 10 = 9,500.00
  3. 3Monthly depreciation = 791.67

Method comparison

Straight-line: even expense, simplest. DDB & SYD: accelerated — higher expense early, lower tax early (tax deferral). PRC tax law generally requires straight-line with min years (buildings 20y, machinery 10y, vehicles 4y, electronics 3y); accelerated methods need qualification.
