This is for Visual Studio: For tax purpose an item may be depreciated over a period of several years N. With the double-declining balance method of depreciation, each year the depreciation is calculated using this formula: depreciation=(its value at the beginning of that year) * 2/N. In the last year it is depreciated by its value at the beginning of the last year. Create a form with a textbox to enter property value and a textbox to enter property life and a DataGridView control to show the propertys depreciation schedule when the button is clicked. Test your program with property value = 2000 and life = 5.
