Answer:

$14,832

Explanation:

Depreciation charge = 2 x SLDP x BVSLDP

where,

SLDP = 100 ÷ useful life = 20 %

and

BVSLDP = Cost or Net Book Value

therefore,

1st year

Depreciation charge = 2 x 20 % x $61,800 = $24,720

2nd year

Depreciation charge =  2 x 20 % x ($61,800 - $24,720) = $14,832

conclusion

the amount of depreciation for the second full year is  $14,832
