A decreasing charge method in which the annual charge is a fraction of the depreciation base, the numerator of which is the number of years + 1 of the asset's remaining estimated life, the denominator being the sum of the series of numbers representing the years in the total estimated life. For an asset having an estimated life of five years, the denominator is the "sum-of-the-years'-digits" (of the asset's estimated life, i.e., 1+2+3+4+5=15), and the numerator for the first year is 5, for the second year 4, and so on. 6, record 14, English, - sum%2Dof%2Dthe%2Dyears%27%2Ddigits%20method%20of%20depreciation
