Answer:

Annual depreciation= $126,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchase price= $350,000

Useful life= 5 years

Salvage value= $35,000

To calculate the annual depreciation under the double-declining balance, we need to use the following formula:

Annual depreciation= 2*[(book value)/estimated life (years)]

Annual depreciation= 2*[(350,000 - 35,000) / 5]

Annual depreciation= $126,000
