For the consequent years, you use the pursuing schedule:
First year: 20%. (Half a period of time)
Second year: 32%
Third Year: 19.2%
Fourth Year: 11.52%
Fifth Year: 11.52%
Sixth Year: 5.76% (half a twelvemonth)
What if you commercial an old car you were exploitation for company for a new car? You would have to figure a "basis" disbursement for step-down. You as well have a several step-down programme if you use the car little than 50% for enterprise or if you buy a interbred physical phenomenon car.
