The straight line method assumes that the asset will depreciate by the same amount each year until it reaches its residual value. The residual value is how much it will be worth at the end of its life. In this case, we know this amount is $20,000. That means the submarine is going to depreciate by $80,000 over five years.
What should be included on the depreciable assets line?

However, you know that in 5 years of time, the submarine will only be worth $20,000. The straight line method assumes that the asset will depreciate by the same amount each year until it reaches its residual value. The residual value is how much it will be worth at the end of its life. In this case, we know this amount is $20,000.
