1. Determine the depreciation rate:
P = 1 - \left( \frac{30000}{250000} \right)^{\frac{1}{5}} \approx 0.3990 \approx 40\%
2. Calculate the annual depreciation:
D = P \times V \approx 40\% \times \$250,000 = \$100,000
3. Create the depreciation table by applying annual depreciation until the salvage value is reached.
