Cost on January 1 2016 = $1,250,000
Life = 10 years
Therefore,
Double-declining depreciation rate = 2*(1,250,000/10)/1,250,000 = 2*0.1 = 2*10% = 20%
Book value at end of 2016 = 1,250,000 - (1,250,000*20/100) = $1,000,000
Book value at end of 2017 = 1,000,000 - (1,000,000*20/100) = $800,000
Book value at end of 2018 = 800,000 - (800,000*20/100) = $640,000
Changing to straight line depreciation:
Life remaining = 7 years
Book value = $640,000
Depreciation expense per year = 640,000/7 = $91,428.57
Therefore, depreciation expense for 2019 = $91,428.57

Answer:<em> Option (D) is correct </em>
Explanation:
To weaken the conclusion, the answer will emphasize on why Baurisia will not soon become an importer of grain.
Here, in this case if importing meat is cheaper than importing grain, then Baurisia is likely to satisfy the demand for meat by becoming an importer of meat, weakening the conclusion that Baurisia will soon become an importer of grain.
<em>Therefore , It is more economical for Baurisians to import meat than grain, if true, most seriously weakens the argument.</em>
