To calculate the depreciation value for the aforementioned example, we will be passing the required parameters to the function transformation object using a Variables object.
Where,
Cost = 10000
Salvage = 3000
Life = 10
Period = 6
Right-click on the function transformation object and select Preview Output. You can see that Astera Data Stack has returned depreciation value using the double-declining method.
