What method, convention, and recovery period must he use in 2022? A) 150% declining balance (DB), mid-month convention, alternative depreciation system (ADS) recovery period. B) 200% declining balance (DB), half-year convention, general depreciation system (GDS) recovery period. C) Straight-line method (SL), mid-month convention, alternative depreciation system (ADS) recovery period.
