    The depreciation rate per hour is 0.402

    The Book value is $25,046

    Explanation:

    In order to calculate the depreciation rate per hour of use we would have to calculate the following:

    depreciation rate per hour = (basis - salvage value) / hours of use

    depreciation rate per hour = ($56,000-$5750) / 125,000

    depreciation rate per hour=0.402

    To calculate the book value we would have to make the following calculation:

    Book value=basis - (depreciation rate per hour*77,000 hours of operation)

    Book value=$56,000 - (0.402*77,000)

    Book value=$25,046
