a. Straight line depreciation – (65000 – 5000) / 5 = 12,000 per year

Expense in 2004 – 12,000

b. Depreciation = (65000 – 5000)/100000 = 0.6 per unit

31.12.05 book value = 65,000 – 18,000*.6 – 25,000*.6

= 65,000 – 10,800 – 15,000

= 39,200

c 2004 2 * 20% = 40% x 60,000 = 24,000

2005 40% x 36,000 = 14,400

2006 40% x 21,600 = 8,640 – though some versions of double declining say switch to straight line – 12,000

so either 47,040 or 50,400 depending on which one is used
