    Hello.

    Can anyone explain on how to get the written down value of $31m?

    Any assistance would be much appreciated. Thank you.

    Cost is 800M

    There is 50% first year allowance which brings the written down value to 400M

    Then it is 40% reducing balance, so 160 (40% x 400) the following year, bring it down to 240.
    96 (40% x 240) the following year, bringing it down to 144.
    57.6 (40% x 144) the following year,bringing it down to 86.4.
    34.6 (40% x 86.4) the following year, bringing it down to 51.8.

    I will let you do the final year yourself 🙂
