    Annual depreciation = $44,400

    Explanation:

    Given,

    Purchase price of the delivery van = $111,000

    Salvage value = $11,400

    Useful Life = 5 years

    We know that

    annual depreciation under double declining balance (%) = (100%/useful life) * 2

    Putting the value in the formula, Annual depreciation (%) = (100%/5) * 2

    = 40%

    Annual depreciation = Purchase Price*Percentage of annual depreciation

    Annual depreciation = $111,000*40% = $44,400
