Answer:

C. $180,000

Explanation:

Double-declining-balance method is otherwise known as the Reducing Balance Method.

Depreciation Expense = 2 × SLDP × BVSLDP

SLDP = 100 ÷ Number of useful life

         = 100 ÷ 8

         = 12.50 %

Year - 2019

Depreciation Expense = 2 × 12.50 % × $960,000

                                      = $240,000

Year - 2020

Depreciation Expense = 2 × 12.50 % × ($960,000 - $240,000)

                                      = $180,000
