The formula for calculating the double-declining-balance method is
a. book value at beginning of the year less residual value x 2/ estimated service life.
b. historical cost less residual value x 2/estimated service life.
c. historical cost x 1/service life.
d. book value at beginning of year x 2/estimated service life

d. book value at beginning of year x 2/estimated service life

Explanation:
