Solution
9. Depreciable cost = Cost of equipment - salvage value
= 90000-15000
= 75000
10. Depreciation as per straigh line method
Depreciation = Depreciable cost / Lfe
=75000/6
= 12500
11. Book value at the beginning of year 3 = Cost - Accumulated depreciation
Accumulated depreciation = 12500*2
= 25000
Book value = 90000-25000
= 65000
